Eicma 2018 / Traveling in the future, in motion – Engines – Motorcycles

Milan, November 6, 2018 – A Journey into the Future at EICMA 2018, the world's largest motorcycle event at Fiera Milano-Rho. The bike has taken a leap forward. Today, pbadion, engineering, innovation, safety, sustainability, generative design and the most sophisticated construction technologies. Thus, with these premises, the 76th edition of theInternational exhibition cycle, motorcycle and accessories.

ELECTRONICS
Electronics is the key tool of road safety: the progressive development of technologies helps to improve the driving experience. The most relevant innovation is in the interconnected platforms, able to let the motorcycle show the dialogue with the smartphone of the rider. This is a service that allows the user to manage multimedia items such as photos, videos and message notifications directly from the bike screen. This result is made possible by a color display (TFT) with simple controls and positioned on the handlebar, which allows you to view the information on your smartphone.

CONNECTION
Ducati debuts with the DMS (Ducati Multimedia System). It's a system that allows the connection between the centaur and the motorcycle. A novelty also offered by Aprilia thanks to multimedia platform Aprilia MIA.

BRAKING SYSTEMS
As far as control units and sensors are concerned, the revolution is about braking systems, which are now able to slow down the bike when cornering without creating a dangerous risk of inconvenience, thanks to Cornering technology. ABS. Bosch goes from intelligent badistance systems connectivity packages, up to the sensor that detects lateral wheel slip. Exceeding a certain threshold value, in the case of wet leaves, of a loss of oil or gravel on the road surface, a battery of the same type as that used for airbags of car, triggers high pressure gaswho is expelled by generating a contrary push that straightens the bike.

ASSEMBLY CONTROL
The acronym MSC (Motorcycle Stability Control), the world's leading security system, deserves mention. by monitoring parameters such as the angle of inclination, the MSC system can regulate the electronic braking and intervene in acceleration instantaneously for an adaptation to the optimal conditions. In this way, the system allows the rider, when cornering braking, to reduce the tendency of the bike to return to the upright position, thereby safer deceleration.

LEDS LUMINOUS
To follow, to follow, the lighting system adopted for the projectors, in constant evolution: the new system DRL (Day Time Running Light) consists of LEDs providing excellent visibility during day trips. For most models on the market, these innovations add to the standard set provided by motorcycle builders. This set includes, for example, driving mode, engine mapping, traction control, electronically badisted Quick Shift transmission, and keyless ignition systems.

USB IN
Interesting proposals also come from Triumph, especially on models such as the Scrambler 1200 XC and XE. In fact, the XC version is equipped with a cruise control and a USB input to charge the smartphone. However, the XE has a Bluetooth system that allows you to operate the action cam via commands always placed on the handlebars.

LITHIUM BATTERIES
In a highly competitive scenario, the electricity sector is no less so and offers futuristic solutions derived from the car. An example of everything is the mode of recharge lithium batteries for the new 2019 electric Vespa, which operates the kinetic energy recovery (KERS, kinetic energy recovery system) during the deceleration phases. Other homes, such as Zero Motorcycle, have improved the battery management software by extending its life with the "Long-Term Storage Mode" system.

SHOWS
Better electronics means better performance. For example, the motorcycle company Modenese Energica Motor Company has developed the supply of electronic gas to such an extent that it has come to perceive the button rotation up to one hundredth of a degree.
