some safe driving tips that you can practice.

Set up the Ideal Sitting Position
Hold the steering wheel with his left hand or right hand in position Pk. 12.00, then one arm straight up, and find the right sitting position. Once it is comfortable, then the position of both hands can be combined in a position Pk. 9:00 and Pk. 0300, or on Pk. 10.00 and Pk. 02:00.

With hands like that position, the driver is expected to become more alert, because it can actively monitor what is happening around them, and estimate the probability of what happened. With a position like that the driver is expected to react effectively when something happens, for example, the front tire burst, or hit a rock, or collapsing into the hole, so that the wheel will be a sudden detour.

Likewise, if there is a sudden event in front of the car, which makes the driver suddenly have turned the car to escape.

Set the Hand Position When Turning

Strive for the right hand not to cross over to the left, past the Pk. 12:00. Likewise, the left hand should not cross over to the right. In other words, the left hand movement only from the position of Pk. 12:00 retreated to the position of Pk. 6:00, while the right-hand movement from the position of Pk. Advanced to the 12:00 position Pk. 06:00.

Set the Braking Distance
Safe braking distance is different for every car. Because of that the driver needs to test and have the right feeling, how yangn safe braking distance for the car he was driving.

You can try to pass through the deserted streets and empty, and driving with a speed of 50 miles per hour and do a sudden braking. Come down from the car and take the measurement, how far the car is stopped since the brake pedal in the stampede, the distance that could be a benchmark how safe braking distance.

Do not Panic
It's hard but this attitude must be maintained, do not panic if there is something surprising, such as blowout occurred. Although the car was fast moving, try to calm, control the steering wheel correctly, and do not step on the brake pedal until the car too deep can be fully controlled. You only need to hold the steering wheel to keep the car moving straight ahead, and hit the brakes after the car buisa fully mastered.

Advanced Car For Blind

Technological developments have made the blind hope of driving your own car. Researchers from the National Federation of the Blind and Virginia Tech, the United States plans to demonstrate prototype vehicles equipped with technology to help the blind to be able to drive myself.

Technology called "nonvisual interfaces" using a sensor that could help blind people do when driving maneuvers. The sensor will send information about the environment around: is there a car or an object nearby, in front or on the other line.

For many blind people, driving is considered impossible. But researchers hope that this project could revolutionize mobility and challenging assumptions that have long been restricted.

"We're looking at areas that were previously considered impossible to be explored," said Dr. Marc Maurer, president of The National Federation of the Blind, as quoted from the Associated Press (AP).

"We moved away and want to abandon the theory that blindness is the end of everything and to contribute to society," he added.

Organisani is based in Baltimore mengumumnkan plans to conduct a demonstration vehicle for the blind on Friday, July 2, 2010 and, on the coast of Daytona, Florida, United States.

A visually impaired, which until now has not been selected, will use the vehicle along the tracks near the Daytona race track. He will try to simulate a typical driving experience.

Maurer first time talking about cars for the blind for about ten years ago when he launched a research institute organisani organization. "Some think I'm crazy but some people believe that it is a wonderful idea," said Maurer.

A HALF-HANDLEBAR LEGEND.

We first have to take a forty-year step backwards if we want to understand how the mythical Moto Guzzi V7 Sport, which inspired today's V7 Cafè Classic, has evolved. In 1969 the Mandello del Lario mechanics increased the cubic capacity of their transverse 90° V engine from 703 to 757cc which greatly increased the level of maximum performances without in any way diminishing the notorious reputation of reliability and sturdiness that was behind the success of the V7 in the market and with the police forces of half the world. Fully aware of the power of this engine, Moto Guzzi decided to publish the results, building a faired prototype of the V7 Special with the new 757cc engine which, in June and October of that same year on the high speed ring of the Monza track, set numerous records among them the 100 km, at an average speed of 218,426 km/h and the 1,000 km at an average of 205,932 km/h.

No one at that time had ever dreamt of such results from a bike created from an openly declared touring bike which was the V7 Special, so much so that the effects of such an accomplishment gave Moto Guzzi the incentive to create a sports model that was greatly appreciated by a new public compared to that acquired with the previous V7s. The task was given to Lino Tonti, one of the most brilliant Italian designers who, using the generous forms of the 750cc engine, built a highly streamline CrMo tubular frame. Low, long and hunched over the suspensions, the V7 Sport made its first appearance in the market with a rather unusual chromatic combination, obtained with the "Legnano" green used for the upper structures contrasting with the red frame of the first 150 specimens assembled in the Moto Guzzi testing department using a CrMo tubular frame as well as some changes to distribution and ignition details with respect to the next versions which had a black coloured frame.
Boasting an excellent dynamic performance, the V7 Sport impressed the public and critics alike for being the first mass produced bike in the world able to exceed the maximum speed of 200 km/h and this fact was worthy of a report in 1972 by a renowned Italian motorbike magazine. Symbol of the "Italian style" sports bike, all substance and no frills, the V7 Sport magically reappears today in the distinct lines of the new V7 Cafè Classic.

The similarities with its renowned ancestor blend together in the excellence of its dynamic performance and in the class of the stylistic features common to both, like the "Legnano" green of the upper structures, the rich chromings, the slanted half-handlebars, the instrument cockpit and other details that are unmistakably Moto Guzzi.

Technically speaking, the V7 Café Classic differs from its Tourer sister in having twin raised silencers that, apart from increasing ground clearance, provide a sportier exhaust note more suited to this model that, like its famed predecessor, boasts exceptional road-holding. The key to this legendary road-holding lies in its twin cradle frame with removable bolt-on lower components. Great attention was paid to the steering geometry where the rake is set at 27° 50' to ensure stability and precision when cornering. Of no less importance are the 40 mm Marzocchi forks. Travel on the front suspension is 130 mm and works in combination with two adjustable rear shock absorbers with 118 mm travel. Braking is looked after by a 320 mm floating disc at the front and a 260 mm disc at the rear. The V7 Classic is fitted with 18" wheels up front and 17" at the rear with high profile tyres so as to offer superb handling and feed-back characteristics.

2010 Moto Guzzi V7 Clubman Racer

All of the relish of challenges between gentlemen riders comes back to life in the classic sportiness of the V7.

Moto Guzzi V7 Clubman Racer is the end result of extensive tuning inspired by the motorcycles that in the 1970s challenged each other in the modified production category.

Races enlivened by heated rivalry between fans of the Japanese bikes, at the time extremely powerful but hard to handle, and fans of Italian motorcycles, perhaps on the minus side in terms of power but superior to their Oriental challengers when it came to their rigorous chassis and braking. Challenges on the tracks then shifted to tables at bars, where showing off a Moto Guzzi V7 Sport with single-seat saddle, racing exhaust system and the unfailing top fairing was the symbol of belonging to the elite of the sportiest motorcyclists.

The V7 Clubman Racer is the epitome of this snapshot taken more than 30 years ago, and reworks it by adopting the technology and quality standard of today's manufacturing processes.

The latest member of the V7 family is fitted with a top fairing inspired by the legendary 850 LeMans, a single-seat saddle with number plate, and even flaunts a roaring pair of Arrow silencers.

Its footrests moved back and adjustable handlebars make it inviting to take onto the track.

All that a gentleman rider in the mood for track days has to do is put on a helmet and a simple leather suit, find the ideal set-up by adjusting the sophisticated pair of Bitubo shock absorbers and guide the 18 inch front wheel as close as possible to the kerb.

The strong personality of the Moto Guzzi V7 Clubman Racer is also underscored by details like the chrome tank complete with knee guard, rear-view mirrors anchored to the ends of the handlebar, the chrome Moto Guzzi logo ornaments and the new racing fuel tank cap.

The rest of the bike follows the features of the V7 Cafè with regard to both chassis geometry, with its double cradle design and lower elements bolted on and removable, and to the geometry with the headstock tilted at 26°50'. In addition to the multi-adjustable Bitubo shock absorbers, the suspension banks on the absorption capacity of the Marzocchi fork with 40 mm stanchions and 130 mm travel.

The braking system consists of a 320 mm floating front disc and a 260 mm disc in the rear, while the spoke wheels have the same diameter as those of the V7 Cafè but instead of high profile tyres, they are equipped with the higher performance and aesthetically pleasing Pirelli Demon Sport, with a larger 140/70 tyre in rear.

All owners of V7 bikes can find all of the parts supplied standard on the V7 Clubman Racer in the new Moto Guzzi accessories catalogue, available separately.

A TRIBUTE TO A LEGEND. 2010 Moto Guzzi V7 Classic - Specifications MSRP: $8,790 USD

In 1967, the motorcycle market reeled in shock at the appearance of the first Italian maxi motorcycle: Created by the legendary Giulio Cesare Carcano, the Moto Guzzi V7 marked the debut of the transverse V90 twin-cylinder 703 cc engine that set a record at that time. The V7 was enthusiastically acclaimed by the press and public. This success helped the worldwide promotion of Moto Guzzi's image as manufacturers of an exclusive, elegant, comfortable and above all, highly reliable motorcycle. For many people, owning a V7 was one of the most important things in their lives. It left them with unforgettable memories that reminded them of their younger days, of friends and of journeys made together and made that time perhaps one of the highest points in Moto Guzzi's history. After a further forty years of success and as part of Moto Guzzi's worldwide relaunch project, the flame of creativity shines brightly once more in the new V7 Classic. The V7 has character to spare and is a superb interpretation of the fundamental beauty of the original V7 but this time incorporating all the latest technology that was unavailable to its predecessor.

The new machine is fully up-to-date with its equipment levels, frame engineering and 750cc Euro 3 engine. The V7 Classic brings earlier days to mind with the line of the tank that nestles comfortably on the tubular frame and runs back to meet the saddle. This in turn is perfectly flat and blends in gracefully with the rear mudguard. The side panels house the same stowage compartments that so stylishly set off the side view of the original machine.

Times gone by can also be seen in the gleaming chrome finish on the exhaust system, the shock absorbers, rear light cluster, front headlight and the comfortable handlebars that house the chromed rev counter and speedometer. Just as on its predecessor, the wheels too are spoked and shod with high profile sports tyres while the instrument panel with its retro-style graphics houses two modern displays that provide information on operating and diagnostic parameters. Although the V7 Classic is somewhat smaller than other Moto Guzzis, it is ideally suited for carrying pillion passengers with a comfortable saddle, convenient handholds and well positioned footpegs. The V7 Classic is easy to ride, instinctive and creates a feeling of confidence right from the first time you climb aboard. The manageable size and excellent riding position are perfect for both town use and longer mixed journeys. The sheer pleasure of riding the machine will be enhanced even further by owners having to answer countless questions from curious onlookers about the white machine they are riding as it looks just like its famed predecessor.
