Mv Augusta
Mv Augusta Rear Look
Although the bike is least costly in this list but that doesn't make it a looser as it has an engine with capacity
of 998 cc which throws out max. power of 128 kW (174 hp) @ 11900 rpm. Being available at $135000 makes it to the number 5 slot in my top 5 costly list.
4# : Mtt Turbine Superbike ($175000)
Mtt Turbine
Look at the beautiful exhaust that it has
This bike has automatic transmission and is powered by a Rolls-Royce-Allison Model 250 producing 320 hp (240 kW) at 52,000 rpm. And what a wonderful chrome plated exhaust it has..loved the bike. For such kind of beauty the price is Appropriate and makes it to number 4.
3# : Macchia Nera ($200000)
Macchia Nera
Ducati 998R Engine
The bike has a full race Ducati Testastretta 998R engine rated at 180hp and weigh only 297lbs which makes it lighter and amazingly fast. The bike has most of the components in titanium. For such a beautiful engine the bike is well placed at number 3.
2# : Ecosse Titanium ($250000)
Wow Engine
Ecosse Titanium
The name includes Titanium because of the beautiful titanium chassis and the titanium exhaust. It has a 2100cc engine mated with 6 speed transmission. That our well deserved number 2 bike.
1# : Dodge Tomahawk ($550000) - The Number One!!!
This is the costliest bike till now and yes it looks like so..Have a look at the engine, the engine has 8300cc displacement and churns out 500hp @ 5600rpm. With the engine so big and prominent the bike is a real superstar. Having 4 wheels it can surely compete with a sports car..

The tires which don't have a tube in it are called TubeLess tires. The definition is very easy but the technology behind making these wheels has replaced the conventional tube tires. Nowadays almost all the vehicles are equipped with these tires as an standard equipment.
What's the Difference:
A tubeless tire cutout to show you the interiors
The major difference between tube and tubeless tires as I discussed is the Tube which is not present in the tube-less ones as obvious. Another difference is that the tire and the rim makes a non-leaking air compartment and the valve is fitted directly to rim unlike in tube tires where the valve is fitted onto the tube.
Below is the comparison between the tube and tubeless tires.
Comparison among the tires
Advantages:
More resistant to puncture as the construction is robust.
Sustain the air for longer duration.
Doesn't cause instability when the air pressure is low.
Increase efficiency as friction between tire and tube is eliminated.
Easy to remove punctures as there is no need to take out the whole tube to fix it.
How the puncture is fixed:
The tools used for fixing the puncture are reduced in numbers and size as there is no need to take out the whole to fix the puncture. Nowadays fixing a puncture is not a tedious job and even you can fix the puncture with the help of a fixing kit.
Shown below is a puncture fixing kit for tubeless tires which is all you need.
First the tire is checked for any nail or other sharp object then the tire is drilled down at that point with a tool shown below. Then a fixing strip is coated with the adhesive solution and then with the help of the tool, the strip is pierced deep within. That's It!!!
Take out the tool out leaving behind the strip inside the tire and you are ready to go...

This monster looking huge automobile is the largest land vehicle in the world. It weighs around 13500 tons and by dimensions its 311 feet tall and 705 feet long and the name by which its known is "BAGGER 288".
It was built by the German company 'Krupp' for the energy and mining firm 'Rheinbraun', Germany.
The machine was built for the coal mining industry where its job is to dig the area around and extract the coal. Then it transfers the coal to the transport equipment which ferry the load to its useful destination.
Bagger 288 : Rotary Wheel
The huge rotary wheel is the most important part of this machine. This excavating head is 22 meters in diameter. And has 18 baskets which can hold up to 6.6 cubic meters of excavated coal load.
Bagger 288 : In mining fields
The machine is used to excavate coal from mining fields which in turn turn is used to produce electricity. But this generator of electricity itself requires 16.5 MW of energy for operation.
Bagger 288 : Huge Tires
This machine has the option to move around. Don't be surprised as it has 3 rows of 4 caterpillar track assemblies which makes the large surface area for machine and which in turn reduce the ground pressure developed by the weight of this machine. To your surprise the machine can move 15-30 ft per minute.
Bagger 288 : Outdoors
For a machine like this big what you expect the radius should be???
It's around 100 meters that's so huge that even an Olympic race can happen for that distance.
Bagger 288 : In action in night
This machine is huge as a monstor but as far as its capability is concerned you can give it full marks as it can excavate 240,000 tons of coal on daily basis which is equivalent to digging a football field to 30m deep. Now that's a sign of a monster.
This is it about the Bagger 288 : Monster or Machine. For other Monstrous automobiles visit:

As mentioned in my previous post (Types of Motorcycles) Today i'll discuss the different types of cars that are popular in the world. But before discussing the types, let first see what exactly is a car??
Car:
A car is a vehicle which has 4 wheels and takes its passenger from one place to another by road. Now before you guys start contradicting the above statement let me tell you a technical definition of car:
"It is a wheeled motor vehicle used for transporting passengers, which also carries its own engine or motor.Most definitions of the term specify that automobiles are designed to run primarily on roads, to have seating for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels, and to be constructed principally for the transport of people rather than goods."
Now lets have a look on its types:
Hatch Back
Sedan
Convertible
Coupe
SUV
MUV
Sports
Limousine
A Hatch Back:
Its the most common type and has 4 doors and slightly hatched from their back to make room for goods storage in the back. It has small engine which is good enough to carry passengers and roam around. Have a look at few Hatch-backs.
Ford Focus
Renault Pulse
A Sedan:
Its a car which has a slightly stretched back and are longer than the hatchbacks. It has a separate compartment to keep your goods at the back and the inner space is also better as compared to hatch-backs. he engines present are of more power but not much and in some cases the engine displacement of sedan is equal to a hatchback from the same company. Have a look at few sedans.
Lexus ES
Toyota Camry
A Convertible:
Its a car which has a retractable roof top and allow its owner to drive it as a sedan with roof up and as a classy car with roof down. These cars come in two types :
Soft-Top: The rooftop in this car is made up of a cloth like material which is easy in operating but prone to cut and tear offs.
BMW Convertible Soft Top
Hard-Top: The rooftop is made up of same material as of normal car and the car looks a normal car with roof up. But the retraction of this type of rooftop is difficult to engineer and requires precise controls.
Hard Top Convertible
A Coupe:
A car which has 2 doors and has slightly lower height is known as a Coupe. This car sits 2 passengers and has door length much more than a normal car. These cars look stylish and are very popular among youngsters. Here are some pics of Coupes.
BMW Z4 Coupe
Mercedes Benz Coupe
A SUV(Sport Utility Vehicle):
These cars have bigger engines and have off-road driving capabilities. They are made to tackle the difficult of terrains and thus have latest of technologies like 4WD, EBD, and great suspension. Have a look.
Ford Endeavor
Range Rover
A MUV(Multi Utility Vehicle):
This type of car can be utilized as a SUV or as a passenger car or a goods carrier as it has power, comfort and space t fulfill every need. These cars have enlarged boot space to accommodate more passengers or goods. Have a look.
Tata Aria (Cross Over)
Nissan Nv200
A Sports Car:
These cars have the biggest engine and have the precise technologies inbuilt to make them perform better. The design and aerodynamics are taken care of to exceed their performance as these cars are used for racing purposes. These are super costly and i have mentioned them in one of my post- Costly Cars.
Have a look at few of them.
White Lamorghini
A beautiful white Bugatti
A Limousine:
Its not just a car, its the class. These cars are super long in dimensions and super big in luxuries. They have their driving compartment separated from the rear one and is mainly used by the People of Highest power.
Even in India the car is appointed as the official vehicle for our President. See The President's Car.
Have a look for few pictures.
