Description
There's no denying that initially, diesel-powered machines were generally perceived as loud-noise-making, slow vehicles. However, the further development of technology has paved the way for astronomical progression. The modern-day turbocharged diesel engines match industrial levels compared with internal combustion petrol engines for absolute speed and power. Moreover, they are more economical and reliable.
Historically speaking, diesel bikes were never popular across the masses since diesel engines asked for a specific construction. This complete construction was not at all applicable for motorcycles and planes. The technological revolution has pioneered the workings of diesel motorcycles.
NEANDER TURBO DIESEL Motorcycle
The Neander Turbo Diesel has been skillfully developed with a massive 1430cc air/oil-cooled parallel-twin turbocharged engine, which promises a genuine beastly performance on the road. The vehicle is further designed with advanced machinery such as Bosch electronic direct fuel injection, 108 x 78.2 mm cylinders, and unbelievable compression of 16:1, making it a box-office name in the diesel motorcycling community.
Engine
There have been some murmurs in the market regarding the gigantic compression in Neander 1400. This is since the diesel doesn't come with a spark plug for starting the engine. Instead, it uses a unique compression technique, which allows flaring up the fuel inside the cylinder. With numbers like 112 bhp @ 4200 rpm, 214 Nm @ 2600 rpm, one has to say that the performance is beyond satisfaction.
It's essential to mention that this bike model beats an uncanny resemblance from different details from different manufacturers. To put it simply, this motor features a cylinder head format that BMW has previously used in the 1960s in Formula 2 racing. Similarly, the renowned American turbo manufacturer Garret developed a turbocharger for Neander.
Moreover, the 6-speed gearbox shares the identical gear ratios as that of Aprilia RSV1000R. The front suspension is a 43mm Paioli inverted fork, whereas the rear is a single cantilever Ohlins damper. It is safe to say that that the vehicle is a fine combination of various premium automobile technologies.
Vibrations
As mentioned already, diesel engines generally associate with louder noise and vibrations. However, that's not the case with Neander 1400. Despite being a diesel engine, this bike model doesn't have any vibrations, while the noise doesn't even crank up over the average cruiser bike's engine noises. Furthermore, it is essential to mention that diesel engines an economical option when it comes to bikes.
This diesel motorcycle runs on 4.4 liters of fuel for every 100 kilometers, which is 23kmpl. The enormous cruisers and Super sport bikes feature petrol engines and still don't hit beyond the 17 kmpl marks for a comprehensive comparison.
Engine Noise
Much like every diesel engine, there's no denying that this bike model also sounds like a tractor. However, when the bike is at its full speed, it will produce a heart-pumping rumble. Visually speaking, the bike has a unique exterior look. It also features a giant fuel tank with genuine aerodynamic holes and a big cylinder block.
Furthermore, diesel engine vehicles look for additional details to run seamlessly, thereby looking drastically dissimilar to the regular petrol ones. Some of the bike enthusiasts may find the exhaust piping in Neander Turbo bikes to be underwhelming, at the least. Given the rest of the machine, the pipes look below standard and straightforward. However, the likes of Speedo and other dials have been skillfully designed.
Endnote
In conclusion, it only fits to mention all the pros and cons of the bike model. There's no doubt that the vehicle is a tremendous prospect. However, there is one downside. It comes with massive dimensions. Moreover, the cost of the bike tends to give the idea that it is not for everyone. It is arguably the best diesel engine motorcycle in the world. While these engines for motorcycles are still developing, the manufacturing outfits need both resources and time to create ideal diesel bike engines.
