Weight and Motorcycle


 by: Maricon Williams

Have you ever bothered about the significance of weight to your bike? Maybe yes, but to other riders, the answer will be on the negative.

Weight affects the performance of the motorcycle. In fact, it greatly improves the bike?s braking acceleration and deceleration. Thus, to reduce the weight of the wheels can make a great boost. That change can be a catalyst to achieve your most desired motorcycle performance.

Motorcycle parts and accessories play an important role in the performance of the motorcycle. They can break or make a history. This is the reason why we have to know them by heart and apply the best solution to bring out the best in every part.

In connection to weight, it must be correlated to these motorcycle parts. Say for instance, the tires. Weight can be considered in two ways ? the static weight and the dynamic weight. The first speaks of the weight the motorcycle is not moving while the former deals with the weight when the motorcycle is at motion.

In static weight, the reduction of every ounce of the wheels weight is equal to four ounces on the sprung part. If we take magnesium wheels which normally weigh ten pounds lesser than stock aluminum wheels, the weight reduction is equivalent to forty pounds.

That will be tantamount to a lot of carbon and titanium. In dynamic weight, we can have weight reduction on the rim of the wheel because this is where real action is. Here, every ounce of weight reduction on the rim is equivalent to approximately twenty-five pounds of weight at 100 MPH.

Magnesium wheels usually reduce the total rim weight of the wheels by 20 ounces, the least. This means that the motorcycle will weigh 500 pounds less at 100 MPH. This is the real weight.

As mentioned earlier, weight is connected to speed. Speed reduction, on the other hand is connected to the bike?s velocity. Thus, as the bike increases its speed the weight will also increase exponentially.

Reducing the weight is easy. You just need to consider using lighter materials, load and applying the laws of science. Bear in mind that lighter wheels result to greater performance!

Atkins Declares Bankruptcy....is Low Carb Dead?

Atkins Declares Bankruptcy....is Low Carb Dead?

 by: Dan Robey

As many of you have already heard, Atkins Nutritionals Inc. the company that turned low carb eating into a worldwide diet craze has filed for bankruptcy court protection.

Does this mean that people did not lose weight on the Atkins diet?

Of course not, carbohydrate restriction has been proven to accelerate weight loss in the short term. Notice the last two words...short term. There is a simple reason why Atkins filed bankruptcy, people love to jump on the latest diet craze and then jump off just as quickly as they jumped on. When buyer demand slows, so do revenues.

People did lose weight, and lot's of it on the Atkins diet. The problem is that diets like the Atkins diet are hard to stick with long term. In fact, there has been little solid evidence to show that carbohydrate restriction can lead to permanent weight loss. What then is the key to permanent weight loss?

Yoga is a Safe Solution to Weight Control

Yoga is a Safe Solution to Weight Control


 by: Paul M. Jerard Jr.

One more study tells the world, that Yoga can help with weight control and weight loss. The latest study was held by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington.

The study involved 15,500 healthy, middle-aged, men and women. This is a group that typically has difficulty with weight loss, since the number of calories needed declines, and the energy levels needed to burn calories, is not what it used to be.

Unfortunately, this is a fact that I have become painfully aware of during the past few years, and cutting back on food was my unwanted last option. Although, I cross train almost daily, it took me one year to lose 16 pounds of extra weight.

Back to the study: Yoga practice was defined as practicing at least 30 minutes once a week for four or more years. Comparatively speaking, this is truly ?bare minimum,? and many Yoga teachers used to say that...
