Ather 450X Series1 Image Gallery

Ather Energy recently launched a special collector’s edition scooter called the Ather 450X Series1 for those who pre-ordered the electric scooter even before knowing any technical aspects of it back in January. The changes made to this special edition scooter is limited to aesthetics, and it doesn’t carry a premium over the standard variant either. Check out its detailed images below.

The Ather 450X Series1 is quite a looker thanks to the black colour scheme with red highlights. It looks a lot more stealthy compared to the regular version but also manages to stand apart with its exclusive livery. The deliveries of this scooter will commence from November.

The red racing stripes are minimalistic and it runs across the scooter’s apron panels. It also gets a red Ather logo on the side panels at the rear.

The scooter comes in a unique black paint finish, which Ather calls “high-gloss metallic black”.

To match the scooter’s exclusivity, it also gets a slightly customised User Interface with red highlights on the 7-inch touch screen.

The exposed trellis frame is usually painted green in regular variants, whereas the red colour in the Series1 really brings out the scooter’s sporty intent.

The biggest talking point has to be the translucent panels on the side. It is made out of specially engineered polycarbonate material. Ather says the internals of the scooter have not been meddled with so as to give an authentic look. To ensure privacy and safety, the underseat boot is still opaque.

The Ather 450X Series1 even gets special red-themed rim tapes. As usual, it also gets the tyre pressure markings: a novel way to let the rider know instead of a gaudy-looking conventional marking on the frame or body panel.

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture? Let’s take a look: To understand why a fuel-injection (FI) system is needed, we first need to understand its predecessor: the carburettor. Both FI and carburettors do the same job: mixing air and fuel in the correct proportions before it’s sent into the engine. The diagram above shows a carburettor’s layout. Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...

BMW Motorrad Showcases Radical Electric Vision DC Roadster

The Vision DC Roadster takes the brands iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine design and gives it a rather interesting twist. The design was inspired by the BMW R 32 developed by Max Friz in 1923. BMW has also designed a two-piece functional suit that looks like a casual jacket and black trousers. BMW Motorrad is no newcomer to electric vehicles. We’ve already seen the brands Vision Next 100 concept which gave a glimpse of the company’s future vision. Now though, BMW intends to change our outlook on electric two-wheelers which are more often than not perceived as boring. And they plan on doing so with the Vision DC Roadster, an all-electric bike that gives the word unconventional a whole new meaning. The design team started off by taking its iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine and giving it a rather interesting twist. The idea was to retain its protruding design but incorporate it in an electric motor. The challenge was its packaging. You see, in an IC engine, the size of the motor ...
