Ridley 2008 - новая линейка мотоциклов без сцепления

Японские и европейские мото-производители иногда радуют нас мотоциклами с автоматической коробкой передач. Но выбор среди автоматов небольшой. Поэтому, если у вас цель купить мотоцикл-автомат, то придется потеть в поисках, потом, возможно, долго дожидаться доставки, либо просто купить макси-скутер.

 

Ridley Sport '08

Жителям Америки и Канады повезло в этом плане больше. Компания Ridley, основанная в штате Оклахома (США) специализируется именно на мотоциклах с автоматическим сцеплением. И делает это достаточно успешно уже более 10 лет! Мотоциклы {tag Ridley} выглядят и звучат так же как и обычные круизеры, только не имеют сцепления. Крутим газ и едем!

Стиль всех мотоциклов Ridley великолепен - много хрома, поворотники LED, низкая посадка, спицованые колеса, и широкие шины. Стиль управления напоминает таковой у Harley-Davidson, поэтому типичному американцу привыкать не придется.
 

V-образный двигатель объемом 750 см3 и бесступенчатая трансмиссия Ridley CVT достаточно компактны и легки, благодаря чему общий вес мотоциклов не превышает 208 кг.
 

Еще немного характеристик:
Подвеска — Softail, два амортизатора
Тормоза - 4 поршневые Ferodo спереди и с зади
Хромированные фара и вилка
LED поворотники и спидометр
 

Всего у Ridley около 50 дилеров в США и Канаде, также есть салоны в Японии.

2009 Ridley Auto-Glide Limited Edition

Personality is the vital spirit of this years' Auto-Glide Limited. The custom styling and unique features set the '09 Limited apart from the rest. It is the first ever Ridley to feature an electronic fuel gauge. That along with its custom black and black cherry paint, and tan leather seat make this a true collectors piece.
 

Ridley Motorcycle Company will soon introduce its new line of fully automatic transmission motorcycles for 2009. The first model to be introduced is the '09 Auto-Glide Limited Edition. With last years Limited Edition model's wild success, the new year model is expected to have an even greater demand.

For the past several years, Clay Ridley, founder of Ridley Motorcycle Company, has personally designed one model that includes many features not found on other production models. The 2009 model is no exception. Ridley's design features the brands first ever model to include an electronic fuel gauge, which has been requested by Ridley Owners since 1995.

"After the 2008 Limited Edition design sold out so quickly, our dealers demanded a follow up model. I believe the '09 model tops last years design and that demand for it will be even greater" said Clay Ridley about his signature model.

The Limited Edition models date back to 2001 when Ridley designed the first 33 HP three-quarter scale model known as the Signature Series One. Demand for that model caused it to sell out before the company began producing the model. Other Limited Edition models included the 2002 Signature Series II, 2003 Vicious Cycle (42 HP, three quarter scale), 2005 L.E. (first belt drive Auto-Glide model), and last year's 2008 Auto-Glide Limited (first tank mounted electronic dash and black engine).

In 2008, Clay Ridley's model was limited to a production of only 20. The average Limited model spent less than 30 days on the dealer's floor before selling. Most dealers reported full MSRP for the model.

The new Limited model is similarly styled with the signature "R" accent on the tank and newly added fender accents in Black Cherry which add a subtle and very classic look. To help accent the paint, Ridley has included a bomber brown leather seat and brown "slim fit" hand grips.

The tank mounted dash is a self calibrating speedometer and tachometer with odometer and resettable trip meter. Below the instrument cluster is an LED fuel gauge and battery volt meter. Both right and left fuel caps are still accessible for filling the individual, but joined 4.2 gallon stretched tanks.

Included on the Limited are chrome driving lights, beachbar handlebars, a chrome roadbar with highway pegs, front and center mounted chrome horn, chrome and rubber floorboards, LED turn signals, 60 spoke chrome rims, and white wall tires. The look is absolutely timeless
