“An unabashed love letter to all things motorcycle, the documentary "Why We Ride" will surely warm the souls of bike enthusiasts while prompting many non-riders to join the fold.”
“It could in fact be one of the best movies-as-sales-tools to speed down the pike in some time.”
- Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times

“Anyone who has ever ridden a motorcycle or has ever shown an interest  in motorcycling in general will get it….Scratch that…. anyone who has ever been passionate about anything will get it. I’d watch it again.”
-Jordan Mastagni, Bagger Magazine

“Why We Ride is a beautiful, moving film.” – Tim Buche, Motorcycle Industry Council

We saw this movie in a pre-release presentation at the Powersports trade show in
Orlando FL. Oct 19th 2013 Every motorcyclist of any type should own a copy of this future classic, Awesome! - Steve Aspland / Rising Sun Cycles

Rising Sun Cycles, Yamaha and GPtech have been working on a Moto3 project

by Steven Aspland | on May 23, 2013

Rising Sun Cycles, Yamaha and GPtech have been working on a Moto3 project.
RSC helped GPtech with some needs to make the MotoGP appearance.

If you have not seen our progress on our Moto3 project CLICK on the picture.

Moto3 project

GPtech and Geoff Maloney were given a wild card entry at the Moto GP in Texas this year and Sarni Motorsports asked Geoff his thoughts on the experience. That conversation is below.

Testing or MotoGP at Austin TX

MOTOGP – The Red Bull MotoGP of The Americas which was on April 19-21, 2013 was the debut of motorcycle racing’s premier-class at Austins Circuit of the Americas. This was the 22nd Grand Prix held in the United States. The first two were at Daytona in 1964 and 1965. Laguna Seca has hosted 14 and Indianapolis Motor Speedway has hosted the MotoGP World Championship five times.

One of the interesting storylines of this weekend’s Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas is that of the US wild card entry of Geoff Maloney’s GP Tech squad. He took time out this morning to speak with Sarni Motorsports about their independent effort.

GS: Previously you have entered a Moto2 wild card with Jason Disalvo and last year in MotoGP with Aaron Yates. The last we talked you hadn’t announced a rider or sponsors for this year’s three US rounds. Who will be riding for you this weekend at COTA?

GM: Mike Barnes, who has raced on and off with me since 2000 will ride the No. 44 GP Tech CRT entry. Ironically he is 44 years-old and is the oldest rider on the grid.

GS: Who else, besides your company GP Tech, is involved in the entry?

GM: We have technical and sponsor assistance from KWS in Charleston, South Carolina who built the engine. BCL from Canada made the frame. The suspension is Öhlins all around.

GS: Do you feel that by entering three races this year that you will be able to build your momentum through the miles run in the previous races, allowing for further development of the bike?

GM: Absolutely, our goal is to improve and to continue to learn and develop.

GS: Can you elaborate on engine configuration of your entry?

GM: The engine is a Suzuki based 1000cc in-line four cylinder.

GS: How much testing have you been able to do and what are your expectations for this weekend in Austin.

GM: We were able to run at both of the official Bridgestone tire tests here at COTA. We are just out to simply do the best we can.

GS: Thanks Geoff, good luck this weekend, have fun and enjoy the experience.

GM: Right on, thanks for your interest Greg.

Unfortunately, Geoff Maloney’s GP Tech squad never generated enough pace to allow them to start the race, but look forward to their next opportunity at Laguna Seca on July 21st. The Grand Prix of Spain is on May 5th. The race will be broadcast live on SPEED at 8 AM EDT.

QSTARZ GPS Lap Timers for Improving Racing Performance

The 2013 race Season is here. Take a look at QSTARZ GPS Lap Timers for Improving Racing Performance

Rising Sun Cycles has been handling the QSTARZ line of GPS devices for the last few years

QSTARZ LT-Q6000 GPS Lap Timer

which has made the BT-Q1000eX a very popular racing tool. The LT-Q6000 which was released in time for the 2012 season is the first GPS Lap Timer with a color display, based on 10Hz GPS technology which allows racers to track, analyze, and compare their racing performance. The display shows progress instantly while on the track. Then data can then be downloaded to a PC for analysis to help determine improvements to be made for the next session on the course. A GPS Lap Timer with a Color display and racing analyst software rich with options at a very affordable cost. The QSTARZ line is available through Rising Sun Cycles LLC, a leading supplier of racing supplies in the USA with business worldwide. http://www.rscycles.com

Color display shows racing performance changes every tenth of a second

QSTARZ engineers know racers are striving to improve with every second. The LT-Q6000 GPS Lap Timer was designed to give the racer instant feedback of their performance by using color changes on the display and 10Hz GPS technology to take performance to an entirely new level. Racers will be able to see their progress precisely and clearly. Whether Drag Racing, Circuit racing or Rally, the color display shows changes in performance by changing color. To compare the current lap to the previous the display shows Green to show a faster lap, Red means a slower than previous lap. The LT-Q6000 GPS Lap Timer helps racers to know their progress and make instant decisions even at extremely high speed without trying to concentrate to read the equipment display.

User friendly with instant data recall
This is a professional high quality lap timer for all levels of racers. The LT-Q6000 QSTARZ GPS Lap Timer provides the best information for tuning the team’s race vehicle and for improving the racer’s skills. Racing history such as best lap time, section time, max speed, average speed, G-value…etc can be easily reviewed.

Powerful Racing Analyzing Software.
Improving racing performance has never been easier. QSTARZ GPS Lap Timer is packaged with the QRacing 3.2 software to analyze racing data. QRacing 3.2 supports graph statistics to analyze and plot racing data. Racers will also welcome the G-force display, G-value distribution status and track view integration with Acceleration/Brake line. In addition to the outstanding racing data analysis feature, QRacing 3.2 software will also synchronize up to 9 videos with track data for playback. This gives a full experience of racing efforts and a better understanding of improvements that can be made the next time on the track. Steve Aspland of Rising Sun Cycles said “When we showed our rider the data he was very impressed that from the fastest section times he could see what his ultimate lap time could be if he put all the best split times together in a single lap.” QSTARZ software is not currently compatible with an Apple computer. Check out our Replay XD digital camera which is a perfect complement to your Qstarz GPS Lap Timer. Sync your video feed with your lap timer output to graphically see how you can make improvements the next time on the track.

Price & Availability.
With more than 10 years experience with GPS technology and the company’s ambition of

QStarz BT-Q1000eX

leading the industry, QSTARZ International of Taipei, Taiwan announced the LT-Q6000 GPS Lap Timer with color display at the price of just $499.00 USD. The unit comes nicely packaged in two configurations. The LT-Q6000-CX includes a windshield suction mount and the LT-Q6000-MX has a 3M adhesive type mount.
