Winter Motorcycle Care Guide

There comes a time in everyone’s riding journey when the good-ol-days give way to something more realistic. Like Thomas replacing his trusty R1200 GS, that he rode for 10 fantastic years, with a new practical BMW C400 GT Ion. This is no ordinary scooter. It’s the top-of-the-line in Urban Mobility. A sporty, superb handling, twist-and-go maxi-scooter that feels light and comfortable to control, even at low speeds. It’s easy to manoeuvre and very flickable through traffic and while lane filtering. But out on the open road, the preppy GT engine delivers respectable performance that sees you breezing past the slower traffic and sitting comfortably on freeway speed limits. Back to the practicality. The BMW C400 GT Ion has plenty of convenient storage and the Connectivity features are amazing. Through the BMW app and the excellent TFT full colour dash screen, Thomas can listen to his favourite beats, monitor calls, navigate and check his vital statistics. Procycles BMW Sydney, at St Peters, are the Urban Mobility experts. We sell more scooters than just about anybody, and we can offer reliable advice to get you mobile. We welcome scooter service and maintenance work, and we have a great range of price points across our brands.

Paul likes nothing better than to head out of the city and just ride. He and BMW have been partners in adventure touring for many years. It goes without saying that Paul is not new to the BMW Boxer engine. He’s been working his way through all the various model configurations, and in particular he’s owned generations of the R1200 GS and R nineT Scrambler … between all the other bikes he has had in his shed. Now Paul is continuing his tradition and has just picked up his new BMW R1300 GS Trophy, from Procycles BMW Sydney. Paul ordered his new bike optioned up with Adaptive Vehicle Height Control and an Enduro Pack Pro, plus a full set of genuine Luggage. The R1300 GS Trophy is regarded as the ultimate adventure bike, the perfect combination of power, comfort, and agility. The vast number of rider-assist aids, electronic safety and performance features, the quality build and top-shelf components, plus BMW’s renowned all-day ride comfort, make the 1300 GS Trophy the ideal bike to ride over any terrain.

Jamie has bought all three of his GS’s from us at Procycles BMW Hornsby - the R1200, R1250 and now the new generation R1300.  He ordered his R1300 GS as a Trophy variant, equipped with the Enduro Pack, Adaptive Height Control and Navigation. Everything he needs for his next big adventure. 

With his new 1300 GS Trophy, Jamie is going to really appreciate BMW’s continual model development, especially the improved performance, agile handling, and superior adventure-touring capabilities. 

The new 1300cc Boxer engine is more powerful and responsive than the previous 1250 model, offering smooth consistent power across the rev range. The new frame makes the bike feel more agile and responsive, and the upgraded electronic suspension makes technical off-road work easier and more stable, with the new EVO-Telelever front end soaking up impacts exceptionally well. Thanks Jamie for your continued support!

How would you like to buy a motorcycle that is regarded as Sports Bike Perfection, that doubles as a potent track bike, with incredible grunt, the best brakes, a quick throttle, and a comfortable, refined, riding position with legendary ergonomics. And save $2,500!

That’s what David did at Procycles BMW Sydney, when he purchased a brand-new BMW S1000RR M Sport. This bike is currently in price promotion, but there are only a few left at this price and the promo deal runs out in November.

The M Sport package adds features like carbon wheels, M Sport suspension, and aerodynamic winglets that generate downforce, making it lighter and more stable at high speeds. The engine is powerful and smooth, delivering strong acceleration thanks to BMW's ShiftCam technology, which boosts performance from the mid-range upwards.

Handling is described as sharp, precise, and agile, feeling more like a smaller bike in corners. The M chassis kit and specific steering geometry further enhance front-end precision. The new M winglets generate aerodynamic downforce to keep the front wheel grounded during hard acceleration, allowing for more direct power transfer to the rear wheel. A suite of advanced electronic aids, including ABS and traction control, can be adjusted or turned off for a more raw experience. And the bidirectional quickshifter is highly praised as a smooth and effective component.

Stan wanted a great looking bike and one light enough to really zip around town, he picked up his BMW F900 R Sport, from Procycles BMW Hornsby, and got exactly that!

For 2025, the BMW F900 R really steps into the limelight. BMW has updated this model with a new chassis and new ergonomics. The F900 R gains Marzochhi 43mm upside-down forks, instead of the previous telescopic setup. It provides rebound and compression damping, as well as spring preload adjustment. And new lighter wheels, shave around 1.8kg. For 2025, it’s producing 105bhp at 8,500rpm and 68.6lb ft at 6,500rpm. Another change is the switch to a lithium battery, shaving another kilo in weight, bringing it down to 208kg, some 3kg lighter than before.

The new F900 R feels more like a true mid-capacity naked roadster. With a dynamically more aggressive riding position, sportier suspension and lower weight, this bike is more like a baby S1000 R, and the Sport tricolour paint scheme, gives it a real performance look. Stan will have no problem getting around the city on his new BMW F900 R Sport … and probably a lot faster than he ever has before.

This is a ‘Ride Around Australia” update from our good Japanese friend Makoto, who has made it back to South Australia. Makoto set out from Sydney in the beginning of September on a CB500X trade-in that he purchased from us at Procycles in St Peters.

Makoto set out from Sydney to Cairns, Ayers Rock, Darwin, Broome, Perth, and now Adelaide. He reports it was extremely hot between Katherine and Perth. His CB500X has been running well – no dramas, all Makoto has had to do was replace his tyres, front and rear sprockets and chain. Makoto plans to get back to Sydney and back to Procycles to complete his journey by the end of November. Wow! What an adventure.

Richard is a long term Procycles BMW Hornsby customer and already has one M Sport in his garage. Richard already owns a BMW M1000 XR, and he loves it so much he thought he would add to his collection. To make a pigeon-pair, Richard scored himself a BMW M1000 R Competition.

This is a high-performance hyper-naked motorcycle with incredible power and torque. It’s easy and civilised to ride at low speeds, but when you light it up, you better hang on tight. Just as well it has excellent brakes. This rocket ship features a 999cc inline four-cylinder engine with ShiftCam, producing 154 kW (210hp) and 113 Nm of torque.

The 2025 BMW M1000 R Competition is the Bikesales Bike of the Year. Key updates for this model year include larger aerodynamic winglets for increased downforce, a revised quick-action throttle (58°), and an updated Dynamic Traction Control and Race ABS Pro system. The bike is equipped with M Carbon wheels, M Billet parts, a Titanium exhaust, and comes in a M Motorsport colour scheme of stunning M graphics over Black Storm Metallic.

Kurt was spending the day riding around Sydney, visiting different dealerships to see what bikes were available. He wasn’t set on anything specific - just exploring his options. While making his rounds, he called in to see us at Procycles St Peters, we are Sydney’s newest Yamaha dealer, and Kurt came in to check out our latest showroom.

One bike immediately caught Kurt’s attention - the 2024 Yamaha XSR900GP. A retro-styled motorcycle that blends the glory days of ’80s and ’90s road racing with modern tech. Inspired by Yamaha’s Grand Prix heritage and heavily influenced by the racebikes, this GP edition isn’t just a nod to nostalgia, it's one of the best all-rounder sportsters Yamaha has ever produced.

The XSR900GP isn't just a looker. With its perfect blend of power, performance, and the XSR900GP runs the same 889cc CP3 triple-cylinder engine found in the latest MT-09 and Tracer 9 GT. That means 117 hp and 93Nm of torque, from an engine that feels alive in every part of the rev range. Yamaha’s crossplane concept delivers a barky, raw power delivery that makes the GP feel like a lightweight superbike with the soul of a two-stroke. Plus, under the skin, lies the latest in cutting-edge technologies. Modern tech like three ride modes, Sport, Street and Rain, complemented by the ability to create two custom modes where you can fine-tune throttle response, traction control, and more. Kurt also gets adjustable suspension, cornering ABS, and slide control.

Procycles Yamaha Sydney, also offered Kurt a massive rebate that made it an unbeatable deal. Kurt saved $4,500 off the retail price, bringing down his on-road cost to $16,999.

Daniel came into Procycles Yamaha Sydney, at St Peters, looking for a solid and reliable scooter. He had recently heard that we were now Yamaha dealers, so he gave us a call to find out more. After speaking with one of our salesmen, Daniel mentioned that he was after a 2025 Yamaha NMAX.

The NMAX is a scooter in very high demand, but we managed to secure one. Once we let Daniel know, he came straight in with his deposit.

The new NMAX features a new engine, frame and drive system, high comfort suspension, combined with a premium electronics package. This third generation NMAX 155 takes entry level sports scooters to an even more sophisticated ride. In finding the balance between the new engine and new frame, the front and rear suspension settings were optimised to achieve a comfortable ride. In addition, new lightweight cast wheels reduce unsprung weight. The NMAX also has Traction Control and optimised front and rear disc brakes with Dual channel ABS.

NMAX 155 uses a Smart Key System. If the rider has the Smart Key on them, the machine detects its presence, without needing to insert the key itself. The underseat storage compartment offers a 23.3 L capacity and a full-face helmet fits inside. Download the Yamaha Connect app to access Smartphone information like calls, e-mails or text messages and remaining battery level. Other features include: Handy front pockets near the rider on both sides with a 12v socket for charging accessories.

Yosef came into our Procycles Kawasaki Hornsby store last week to have a look at our range of LAMS approved bikes. He had ridden a Ninja 300 in the past, but that was a long while ago. They were happy days and Yosef was keen to get back into it. When he saw the new generation Kawasaki Ninja 500 and how much the bike had improved since back then, it was a no-brainer. He put down a deposit and was back in a few days for new bike day.

The Ninja 500 is a big improvement on the old Ninja 300’s already great platform, with a larger 451cc twin-cylinder engine, more aggressive styling, LED lighting, a new LCD instrument cluster, and Smartphone Connectivity. The new Kawasaki Ninja 500 is Australia’s favourite LAMS motorcycle and its popular with a lot of experienced riders as well. The Ninja 500 delivers 33.4 kW at 9,000 rpm with 46.6 Nm of torque and weighs only 171 kg. More than enough power for LAMS riders and to keep everyone else interested as well.

Maia is new to motorcycling and so far she’s doing it all right. Maia came into our brand-new Procycles Yamaha Hornsby store to sit on a few of the LAMS bikes and ask some advice about where to start. Like most first-timers, Maia wasn’t so fussed about the specs, but easy to ride, comfort, and of course good looks, were high on her list of priorities.

Our freshly-minted Yamaha sales guys steered Maia towards Yamaha’s new model R3. She absolutely loved its beautiful Nebular Blue / White colorway and new generation R-Series styling with improved aesthetics.

Good choice Maia. The new model R3 is a fun, playful, and well-balanced sport bike for beginners and experienced riders alike. This learner approved YZF-R3 is powered by an advanced twin cylinder, high-revving 321cc engine with an emphasis on its light weight, nimble handling and real-world practicality. Its great for beginners who really appreciate its ultra-light chassis, slipper and assist clutch, and Quick shifter. The perfect entry into Yamaha’s R World. A totally confident Maia placed a deposit that day and bought some protective clothing as well.

It was hard for Igor to find a replacement for his Multistrada, but as soon as he test rode our Procycles Sydney BMW M1000XR. demo, he knew he was on a winner.

BMW’s new M1000 XR is an engineering masterpiece that brings sportbike performance to the crossover touring category. With a bit of M-sport magic, BMW has turned this already rapid tourer into a devastatingly quick missile that’s comfortable enough for two.

BMW has added “M” magic into the S1000 XR, creating a machine that’s faster, sharper, and more capable than ever before. At the heart of the M1000 XR is the brilliant inline-four shift-cam engine from the game-changing S1000 RR superbike. With a staggering 201hp, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and top-shelf components, the M1000 XR redefines what a sports tourer can be, and is comfortable enough for touring around the country, yet quick enough to embarrass lots of Euro-sport machines on a track day. With a few M tweaks, BMW has produced a bike with all the performance of a superbike, still retaining supreme comfort for those who don’t want to be crouched over in a typical sportsbike position.

Procycles is Sydney’s newest Yamaha dealer and Philip is our first Yamaha WR450F customer, in the Procycles Yamaha Sydney store, at St Peters. It was an easy sell, as Philip already knew the Yamaha WR450 is the ultimate enduro, with an unmatched level of performance and control for every type of technical trails and open terrain.

It features a 450cc liquid-cooled DOHC 4-stroke engine, delivering 58 hp, with a 5-speed transmission. The bike's lightweight aluminium frame makes it agile, while the fully adjustable, 48mm KYB inverted fork and a KYB rear shock suspension soaks up the bumps on any terrains. The WR450F also boasts advanced electronics, including a 44mm Mikuni fuel injection system for precise fuelling and improved throttle response. With a seat height of 955mm and a ground clearance of 320mm, it offers excellent manoeuverability and clearance. Designed for durability and performance, the 2025 WR450F is a versatile, capable and very reliable machine.

If you do it in the dirt, come in and check out our Yamaha range. Procycles might be Yamaha’s newest dealer, but we have been racing, selling and servicing off-road bikes for over 50 years. Plus, we can promise you a very different professional Yamaha buying experience.

At Procycles KTM Sydney, we see a fair bit of Craig. He’s bought KTM’s and BMW’s off us in the past and he still owns a BMW R1250 GS Trophy for his serious, long-distance adventure touring, but he also wanted something a little lighter for the somewhat more technical stuff and to have a bit of fun on the weekends, without having to get his big bike out.

When Craig saw KTM announcing the upcoming 390 Adventure R and he took a close look at the real-world specs, he contacted us and got his name on the list to see one as soon as they were released. Good choice Craig. The KTM 390 Adventure R is the most off-road capable middleweight adventure bike in its segment. It’s got plenty of useable power, the most complex WP suspension in its class and the brakes work well on and off the road.

The Adventure R feels nimble, weighing in at 165kg dry, it’s 10kg less than the CFMoto 450MT, and a shorter wheelbase gives it a more agile feel in the dirt. It has a tall screen and a neat Nav-Tower style display unit that houses a 5-inch TFT display, a USB-C outlet and the electronics suite with a solid array of rider aids. Plus, an LED headlight. Within the 390 Adventure R’s bag of e-tricks you’ll find three ride modes, a 3D IMU that governs lean-sensitive ABS and traction control, throttle response adjustability, as well as optional Quickshifter and cruise control.

Steve is from Victoria and was up in Sydney for the BMW GS Master Class. He’s a Safari veteran. Steve has a good mate, Max, who is a long term Procycles BMW Sydney customer. Max brought him into the dealership for a tyre swap, in preparation for the Master Class. While they were here, they were checking out what bikes we had on the floor, when they came across this BMW R1300 GS Adventure, one of our fully loaded, quality trades. The previous owner was also a regular GS Safari-goer and the guys recognised the bike. They also knew the owner only put nothing but quality parts on his bikes. From the full luggage system to the additional Lone Rider fog lights using HEX ezCan integration. We were able to turn this bike around within the day so Steve could use his new bike for the GS training. A great opportunity to get to know his GS and then enjoy the ride home back to Victoria.

This is Jaime and her brand new 2026 Kawasaki ZX-6R. Jaime called us at Procycles Kawasaki Hornsby a few weeks ago looking for a new 2026 Kawasaki ZX-6R. At the time, the ’26 model hadn’t been released, although we were expecting to get the bikes any day. Jaime knew she wanted her bike in the KRT colours, so we made sure she was first on the list. And it wasn’t long before we were ringing Jamie to tell her it was new bike day.Jaime knows her stuff. The 2026 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R is a real SuperSport motorcycle. She chose the new colour scheme of Lime Green with Matte Grape stripes and Steel Grey highlights. Key features include a 4.3-inch TFT display, Integrated Power Modes combining Traction Control, a Quick Shifter, and the Intelligent Anti-lock Brake system. Suspension is courtesy of Showa Separate Function fully adjustable Big Piston Forks, hangingoff a Pressed aluminium perimeter frame. The Ninja ZX-6R grips the road with Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres.

Jonah is new to motorcycle riding and was looking for a solid first bike that suited his style and size, while being practical for everyday use.

He came into our Procycles Kawasaki Sydney dealership to have a look around, gather some information, and hopefully find the right bike. Something with a full-frame size that would offer a comfortable ride for his height.

Our sales guys recommended he try the Kawasaki Versys-X 300, a versatile, entry-level adventure-style motorcycle that’s affordable, with comfortable ergos, and surprising off-road capability. Shifts are quick and crisp. The gearbox is very pleasant with a super-light clutch feel. Jonah went for a test ride and knew right away it was the perfect bike for him.

George called into Procycles BMW Sydney after spotting this 2022 BMW R1250 R Sport, in beautiful condition, on bikesales.com.au

It was pretty clean when we traded it, but just to be sure, the bike went onto our workshop for its 40-point health check and came out the other side with flying colours. This naked boxer roadster combines agility, performance and comfort in a package that is as suitable for twisty mountain roads, daily commuting, and especially a two-up tour.

The 1,254 cc 2-cylinder air/liquid-cooled boxer engine delivers 136 hp and 105 ft-lbs of torque. Thanks to BMW ShiftCam technology, which varies intake valve timing and lift, the R1250 R delivers outstanding power and torque across the entire rpm range.

Gabriel is one of the Procycles Sydney salesmen here at St Peters. Ever since he started riding, Gabriel always dreamed of owning a BMW S1000RR, his ultimate motorcycle.

After waiting ages, and riding a few other bikes in the meantime, Gabriel finally decided to make that dream a reality. He put a plan together but still had plenty of time to organise his selection of accessories, including an SC-Project exhaust system. Finally, his new bike day came around and Gabriel was able to take his dream motorcycle home.

Quite a few of the Procycles people ride BMW S1000 RRs. They can ride anything we sell, but, choose to spend their own money on an RR. Simply because an S1000 is about as exciting as a road-going superbike gets. The rush of controlled acceleration is addictive beyond all reason. With 210 hp on tap, it’s aggressive, powerful and fast. Yet you can ride it comfortably to work, thanks to BMW’s legendary ergonomics. Dynamic braking systems, electronic safety controls and unobtrusive intervention over traction and suspension settings make this potent track bike totally civilised.

Garrath thought he had the best of both worlds. In his shed he had a near-new BMW S1000 RR M Sport and a late model KTM 890 Adventure. At Procycles BMW Sydney we suggested Garrath take a closer look at the new R1300 GS Trophy. Why own two bikes when you can have one that does the job perfectly.

The 2025 BMW R1300 GS Trophy is a special edition of the adventure motorcycle, featuring a Racing Blue Metallic paint scheme and red and white graphics. It includes the standard powerful 145 hp boxer engine and adds specific equipment such as a high rider's seat, black cross-spoke wheels, and additional lights and hand protectors.

Garrath wrote to us after he had time on his new bike saying, he knew the bike was good, but he had no idea it was going to be this good. Garreth says, “Thanks Vik and Sean. It’s near perfect!! Certainly, the most comfortable bike I have owned. And at my age comfort is everything! Thank you so much.” Thank you Garrath. Thanks for trusting us and enjoy mate. We are riding with you.

Simon is one of our very best customers and good friends at Procycles BMW Sydney.

He has just traded his R1300 GS Adventure on a new BMW R1300 RT Triple Black, a motorcycle which has been redefined by BMW, with an emphasis on carefully selected equipment, comfort and technology. The result is the ultimate touring experience, with a new more powerful 1300cc Boxer engine, enhanced electronic suspension and excellent wind protection.

The new BMW R1300 RT already comes standard with the Dynamic Package and Comfort Package. But it also features a whole host  of smart technology, rider aids, safety and performance inclusions. Like the Integral ABS Pro, Dynamic Brake Control, Dynamic ESA, Dynamic Traction Control, Hill Start Control and Cruise Control.

Simon already has a BMW F900 GS which he will be keeping and riding in the GS Safari events he religiously attends.

Here Simon is pictured with Marco, our Procycles BMW Master Technician. Marco started his working life as a factory-trained Italian Ducati technician in Bologna.

Stephen was happily cruising around on his BMW R18 Bagger, but he was missing the excitement of a sports bike. When BMW went all-out and launched the R1300 R with major upgrades, it was enough to convince Stephen to trade the Bagger on this gorgeous next-gen sports tourer, with Option 719 high-quality optional equipment and boasting state-of-the-art technology. This new model comes in an exclusive colour scheme: Blackstorm Metallic. With visual highlights, such as the painted seat insert, the painted air blades and the exclusive “Option 719” badge to complete the look.

Stephen gets the performance he was missing with outputs of 107kW (145hp) at 7,750rpm and 149Nm of torque at 6,500rpm. Max revs are bumped to 9,000rpm, with improved smoothness and fuel efficiency thanks to BMW’s ShiftCam variable valve timing technology.

A completely redesigned chassis with a new steel sheet metal main frame and die-cast aluminium rear subframe sheds weight while improving rigidity and mass centralisation. The result is sharper handling, and better cornering stability. Lighter 17-inch wheels save over 1.4kg in rotational mass.

The suspension has had a major upgrade with a new 47mm USD fork up front and revised EVO Paralever rear setup. For the first time on a production motorcycle, the optional Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) system allows the fork’s spring rate to be electronically adjusted mid-ride, alongside damping and rear preload compensation—great news for riders coping with different luggage loads.

Stephen initially wanted a manual, but after he test rode the Automatic, at Procycles BMW Sydney, there was no going back. BMW’s Automated Shift Assistant enables fully automatic clutch operation for seamless gear changes—either manually via the foot lever or in a fully automatic mode.

Christophe had a BMW R1250 GS Triple Black for his off-road adventures and a Triumph 1200 RS for when he felt like some sport riding action. But what he really wanted was one bike that could do both. Christophe needed a brand-new BMW R1300 GS Triple Black. The ultimate all-rounder. So, Christophe came into Procycles BMW Sydney and traded both his older bikes on this gorgeous BMW R1300 GS Triple Black with Forged wheels. Now he has the best in both Adventure and Sports riding.

This is no secret. The GS is arguably the original and the highest regarded large-capacity adventure tourer in the world. Nothing else compares to a GS. It’s ability off-road is legendary, but it is the motorcycles’ touring capability that really impresses. The Triple Black variant is one of six R1300 GS versions available. It is aimed more at touring with a pillion and carrying luggage. Comfort wise, the GS is superb. Christophe can ride his GS for days on end and not be uncomfortable. And when it comes to performance, the new generation GS power is up 7kW to 107kW (143hp) and torque is up 6Nm to 149Nm. That’s more torque than a Superduke and, thanks to the power boost and the massive 12kg weight saving [now 237kg], the GS really gets up and pins your ears back when you give it plenty in the bottom and mid-range revs.

All Theja’s mates were originally from the dark side. Lots of them on Harleys. Then one of them started riding a BMW. It didn’t take long before, one by one, they transitioned over to various BMW models. Only Theja was holding out. Hanging on to his Enfield. After some convincing from his mates, and a few embarrassing group rides, Theja finally made the jump to BMW.

The Procycles BMW Sydney current Demo Sale played a big part in his decision. It was hard to look past some of the amazing prices on offer. Theja saved thousands on this beautiful S1000 XR Triple Black Storm Metallic 2. The ultimate sit-up superbike with comfortable long-distance capability and high-performance. And the latest model is better than ever before. Thanks to its RR genes and various refinements, power has increased by 5hp. As a result, it now achieves a maximum output of 170hp. It also comes standard with ABS Pro, BMW Motorrad Integral ABS, MSR, Dynamic Traction Control, Dynamic Brake Control, Dynamic ESA, TFT Display with Connectivity, Riding Mode Pro, Keyless Ride, Dynamic and Adaptive Lights, Adjustable Windscreen, 12V Socket, USB Port and Drop Sensor. For Theja there’s no looking back now. Except to see how far his mates are behind him.

JC is a long-term BMW enthusiast. He’s owned GS’, been through a series of RR’s and done heaps of klms on the previous R1250 RT model.  Now JC has gone back to the RT, but the latest R1300 RT configuration and this time with Auto Shift Assist. JC Always joked that he could ride his RT just like his RRs – hard and fast. And the new Auto Shift Assist feature is just a better Quikshifter. In reality, what he was really after was a bike with real-world performance, that was also comfortable for touring, with automatic suspension compensation, for when a  passenger is game enough to get on the back. Swapping to the new BMW R1300 RT, gives JC the best of both worlds. With 145 hp and 110 lb-ft of torque on tap, the new R1300 RT delivers powerful, blistering acceleration. The bike has remarkably nimble handling and a vast array of intuitive, electronic rider and safety aids all visible on the large TFT dash screen.

Congratulations Huang – you are our first Procycles Yamaha Sydney customer. Huang is doing everything right. He’s already a passionate Yamaha enthusiast. He began his riding journey on a Yamaha R15M, then upgraded to an R3, but soon set his sights on the biggest bike he could ride on his restricted licence. He really wanted a brand-new 2025 Yamaha R7. When Huang heard that Procycles were Sydney’s new Yamaha dealer, and now he didn’t have go all the way out West to buy one, Huang came into Procycles Yamaha at St Peters and we worked out a super deal for him. We traded his 2025 R3 and Huang took delivery of his brand-new Yamaha R7.

Huang will be so happy he traded up to this brilliant motorcycle. The Yamaha R7 is a really popular middleweight sportbike. Both new and experienced riders rave about its accessible power and nimble handling. It features the same super-reliable CP2 parallel-twin engine found in the MT-07, delivering strong mid-range torque with a light, smooth slipper clutch. The bike comes equipped with high-quality, fully adjustable suspension and KYB front forks. The powerful brakes have a Brembo radial master cylinder. All perfect for Huang’s daily commutes and cutting loose on his favourite set of twisty bits. The Yamaha R7 is about as much fun as you can have on a LAMS licence.

Brandon is one lucky motorcyclist. He finally got his hands on a brand new BMWS1000RR M Sport. And Brandon’s not done yet. He’s already making plans to fit a full SC-Project exhaust system, download the race tune and lots more.Even without the mods, this RR M Sport is a serious motorcycle weapon. Apotent bike on the road or track, with blistering acceleration, great brakes, quick throttle, amazing rider aids and electronic features, plus comfortable touring ergonomics, unlike most superbikes in this class. The RR comes standard with an incredible list of features, but by choosing the M Sport Brandon also gets all the trick BMW M features, like theM Billet Pack, M Carbon Wheels, M Endurance Seat, M Blue Brake Callipers, and Black Fuel Filler Cap. But the best bit is the Race Package: M Endurance Chain, Sports Silencer and all-important Dynamic Package:  Dynamic Damping Control, Heated Grips and Cruise Control. And to top it off the Passenger Kit and Tyre Pressure Monitor is also included.

When you are used to riding a motorcycle that delivers maximum comfort, incredible dynamic performance, state-of-the-art technology and the ultimate touring experience, and it’s time for an update, you stick to what you know. That’s why our Procycles BMW Sydney customer Norbert decided trade his BMW R1250 RT on the latest model R1300 RT Impulse, fitted with the amazing Automated Manual Transmission gearbox.

For such a big motorcycle, Norbert’s new 1300 RT delivers powerful, pure acceleration. With 145 hp and 110 lb-ft of torque, he can get to 100 klms per hour in approximately 3.7 seconds. The Impulse variant comes in Metallic blue with the dark chrome exhaust, forged handlebars, variable wind deflectors, and a brushed aluminum fuel tank.

Other options include BMW’s Riding Assistant, which adds radar for Active Cruise Control, as well as Front Collision Warning, Rear End Collision Warning, and Lane Change Warning systems. The vast array of options also includes audio packages, a variety of different heated seats, and the ability to bolster the bike’s trio of riding modes with an additional two settings by selecting the Riding Modes Pro Package. BMW’s Automated manual transmission, replaces the clutch with two computer-operated electromechanical actuators. There’s a fully automatic “D” mode and a manual-shift “M” setting, which lets you change gear using a familiar-feeling foot shifter, even though it’s connected only electronically to the transmission.

Sez could not wipe the smile of his face when he got his new BMW F900 GS Enduro. It just looked amazing in Black Storm Metallic colours. This motorcycle is the latest offering in the ultra-competitive mid-capacity adventure bike segment.

BMW has gone to town in an effort to make this new model more exciting and appealing to a wider range of riders. And along the way it’s shed a significant 14kg from then old 850 model it replaces and gained 15kW (20hp). The BMW F900 GS Enduro’s parallel-twin engine produces 77 kW (105 hp) and 93 Nm of torque. It has a kerb weight of 219 kg, a 14.5-litre fuel tank, and comes with 21-inch front and 17-inch rear wire-spoked wheels. Key components include a bridge-type steel frame, manually and hydraulically adjustable suspension with 230mm front and 215mm rear travel, and twin 305mm front discs with a single 265mm rear disc brake. The Enduro spec features fully adjustable Showa forks and a Sachs shock, providing excellent feedback and control across various terrains. Plus Sez gets 6.5" TFT Display with Connectivity, Heated Grips, Hand Protection Widened Enduro Footrests and a handy 12V Socket with USB Port.

Michael did well with his previous BMW R1250 GS Adventure, clocking up nearly 60,000 klms on it in about 3 years. He loved that bike and it never let him down. But when it was time to update there was a definite upside. Now Michael has a brand-new BMW R1300 GS Trophy, fully kitted out with the new Vario luggage kit and optioned up with the Enduro Pro Package.

The Trophy is a variant of the R1300 GS, distinguished by its sporty Racing Blue Metallic paint and specific graphics. It features a 1,300cc, 145hp boxer engine, 19-litre fuel tank, and a wet weight of 237kg. From the radiator grille guards to the high rider's seat - everything is designed to tap into it’s full off-road potential, combining power and comfort for various terrains. The extra Trophy features include the Dynamics Package, Intelligent Emergency Call, Headlight Pro and Preparation for the Navigation Device & ConnectedRide Navigator.

When Demetris heard there was only 10 days left before BMW’s huge Demo Sale Event finishes, he rushed straight into Procycles BMW Sydney and snapped up this BMW S1000 R Sport in Black Storm / Mugello Yellow at an amazing price. This is an exciting motorcycle. A Super Naked that pumps out an arm-stretching 205 hp, with weight of 199 kgs ready to go. And for the 2025 model, BMW has added some extra goodies, including an M Quick-Action throttle and a shorter final drive ratio, with a 17-tooth front sprocket matching to a 46-tooth rear. The bike also gets BMW’s Standard Drag Torque Control (MSR) and Engine Brake function, usually a feature on the higher-end M models. The system works in conjunction with a slipper clutch to prevent the rear wheel from locking up under heavy deceleration, quickly closing the throttle.

Procycles still have lots of heavily discounted, low klm BMW Demo models left in stock and the price incentives are set to reset on September 30th. There has never been a better time to see Procycles about that motorcycle you have always wanted. But hurry.

Phillip is a real enthusiast when it comes to all things fast. Cars or bikes. A passionate racer, he’s a regular at the track on his a 2016 R1. But after years of excitement, Phillip was ready for a new challenge. Ready for something bigger, faster, and more powerful.

That’s when he spotted our brand-new Kawasaki Ninja H2. He rang us at Procycles Kawasaki Sydney and said he was on his way to take a closer look. After lots of discussion about the bike and the possibility of trading his R1, we ran the numbers and reached a deal that Phillip was very happy with. He then took the H2 for a test ride, came back and instantly signed the paperwork.

Phillip was blown away with the Kawasaki Ninja H2’s mind-bending power. The H2’s supercharged hypersport in-line four engine pumps out 178.8 kW with Ram Air @ 11,500 rpm. And 141.7 Nm of max torque @ 11,000 rpm. All controlled by state-of-the-art electronics, and the latest Brembo Stylema brakes. It also features a Lightweight trellis frame, Fully adjustable high-performance KYB and Ohlins racing suspension, Quick Shifter, Traction Control with 9 modes, TFT colour instrumentation and Smartphone connectivity. This is real street-legal Hypersport Performance. And nobody’s catching Phillip down the back straight at the track either.

Mikaeel’s company builds customised motorcycles and installs performance upgrades on his clients’ dream machines. His Nshla Customs workshop is always busy, thanks to its great reputation for creativity and workmanship. Mik’s commitment to his business was born out of his own passion for two wheels. At every opportunity he likes to get out there and enjoy his latest acquisition - a new BMW S1000 RR M-Sport. A real engineering masterpiece from Procycles BMW Hornsby.

This ever-evolving superbike now has more aerodynamic trim panels with winglets, front wheel mudguard M Brake Ducts, and other performance-oriented details, such as the quick action throttle that reduces the throttle path by 14 degrees. And a Pro riding mode that will give Mik more control over all riding situations. But choosing the M-Sport model, he also gets additional equipment like the M Billet Pack, Tyre Pressure Monitor and Passenger Kit. The M Package includes M Carbon Wheels, M Endurance Seat, M Blue Brake Callipers, a black Fuel Filler Cap and the all-important Race Package’s M Endurance Chain, Sports Silencer and Dynamic Package: Dynamic Damping Control, Heated Grips and Cruise Control.

Michael was riding a BMW S1000 R Sport, a dynamic roadster on the outside, with RR Superbike DNA on the inside. But he found all that performance was overkill, considering most of his riding these days was really just getting around the city. So, Michael came in to see us at Procycles BMW Sydney, in St Peters, to trade his S1000 R on a more city-friendly F900 XR Sport. The BMW F900 XR Sport edition is an M-Sport variant of the new generation XR line that comes with more M-themed lightweight components, wheel rims, a sports exhaust and of course this stunning motorsport tri-colour scheme. It also offers a TFT display, wind protection, and adaptable suspension. And if Michael decides to escape the city, he’ll find his new XR Sport is also a very capable, comfortable long-distance tourer.

Jamie is a true bike lover with an impressive history of owning and riding lots of great motorcycles that span across most major brands. Jamie’s always on the lookout for the next best thing and recently he was asking himself the age-old question – what should my next bike be?

He had narrowed it down to two serious contenders: the BMW M1000R and the KTM 1390 SuperDuke R. Jamie came into the dealership with some friends and his partner to take a closer look at both bikes and discuss the options available. After riding them, he found himself in quite the dilemma - both machines were simply outstanding.

At Procycles KTM Sydney, we spent time talking through the details, including exhausts and accessories for each bike. But, with the unbeatable deal we had on the 1390 SuperDuke R, the choice became clear. And KTM delivered the thumping V-twin feeling Jamie was looking for. We got everything organized, and just a few days later, Jamie came back to collect his brand-new SuperDuke R. Another very happy customer left with a smile and an incredible new machine.

Rex has been a loyal customer of Procycles BMW Hornsby for over 15 years. And now, six bikes later, he’s finally had to admit the height of his BMW R1250 Adventure is getting to be a bit of a struggle. We spoke about it in the showroom and we got him a test ride on the new R1300 GS Trophy, with the added benefit of Adaptive Vehicle Height Control. Rex was immediately relieved when he was able to flat foot the bike with no issues.

This new adaptive vehicle height control on the R1300 GS is amazing. It’s an automatic suspension system that lowers the bike by 30mm when coming to a stop for better ground accessibility and ease of getting on or off. When the bike is stationary or at low speeds (below about 25 klm), the system lowers the seat height, and as you start moving, it automatically raises the chassis back to the standard ride height. A great convenience for our older riders or those of us who are vertically challenged. The adaptive height control is part of the broader Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) system, which also adjusts damping and spring stiffness in real-time for optimal comfort and handling.

Andre did his research, looking for a great all-rounder sports bike, preferably a naked so he had the practicality as well as the performance.

Then Andre saw Procycles BMW Hornsby was continuing their big BMW Demonstrator sale. He contacted the guys and they offered him our very low klm, Black Storm Metallic, BMW S1000 R Sport at an amazing price.

This super naked has every Andre was looking for and heaps more. For a start the latest model is smoother, safer and quicker than ever! BMW updated the S1000R in 2025 with an extra 5bhp, a quick-action throttle, shorter gearing, refined electronics and twin headlights.

On top of its searing performance the S1000R remains roomy, easy to ride, and this Sport model is loaded with toys and semi-active suspension, with Marzocchi forks and shock. A new electronic braking control system, which works alongside the R’s mechanical slipper clutch, keeps things under control under rapid deceleration. It’s particularly useful on a wet road. The rest of the rider aids get M1000 RR settings that are nothing short of excellent, from its smooth anti-wheelie to the accuracy of the Sport’s up/down quickshifter, while the traction control that works away quietly in the background. 

Charlie has had his eye on the BMW R1300 GS Adventure in Triple Black for some time. Then when he heard Procycles were continuing the BMW Demonstrator Sale for another month, he didn’t wait any longer. Charlie turned up at our Procycles Hornsby store and jumped on our 1300 Adventure demo, adding a factory luggage kit to the bike for all the extra storage he needs. After a slow start, the BMW R1300 GS Adventure has established itself as THE top-tier adventure touring machine. Riders are spreading the word about the GSA’s exceptional comfort and handling for long distances and two-up riding, thanks to the new smooth, powerful boxer engine, advanced electronic semi-active suspension and superior electronic features. Charlie chose the Triple Black variant as it comes standard with all the added customizable rider aids and performance options.

Daniel is a long-term customer of Procycles BMW Hornsby and he’s just scored a sensationally rare bike … this beautiful BMW R nineT 100 year Anniversary edition. This limited-edition motorcycle released in 2023 to celebrate a century of BMW Motorrad. It pays homage to BMW's motorcycle heritage, blending classic roadster design with modern technology, including adaptive LED lighting, and rider aids. The model was limited to a worldwide production of 1,923 units.

The 100 Year R nineT features a compact tank, upright seating position, and premium materials, including an exclusive paint finish, numerous Option 719 milled parts in black, classic 719 wheels, and a distinctive 100-year anniversary badge on the tank which is painted black with white double pinstriping, giving it a timeless elegance. A highlight is the Option 719 "Shadow" and "Shadow II" billet pack, which adds black anodized parts with machined edges to elements like cylinder head covers, engine housing covers, and hand levers. The Option 719 "Classic" spoked wheels feature black anodized rim rings. Congratulations Daniel. This is a spectacular and highly collectable machine.

At Procycles Sydney we traded an immaculate 2025 Yamaha MT-10 SP. After it passed our Procycles 40-Point health check with flying colours, we listed the bike and the reaction was immediate. Heaps of eager enquiries and lots of riders turning up to view the bike. Gregory was very fortunate with his timing. He was the first to act. We arranged a great deal to trade his MT-07 and put a sold sticker on the MT-10 SP. No wonder this model is so sought after. The MT-10SP is an incredible Hyper-Naked motorcycle.

The MT-10 SP is equipped with a refined version of the 998cc liquid-cooled CP4 crossplane engine derived from the race-ready YZF-R1 powerplant. And the first in the world to be fitted with Öhlins’ all-new 6-mode electronically controlled spool valve suspension. In semi-active mode the damping force is automatically adjusted to suit riding conditions, giving the highest degree of chassis precision when braking, accelerating and cornering. And to enable you to fully exploit the 998cc engine’s increased power and torque there’s a 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that controls traction, slides, wheelies, engine braking and brake power.

Peter and his family share a passion for all things motorcycles. And Peter has an impressive history of owning some exceptional bikes. His current ride was a 2025 Yamaha MT-10SP. He really enjoyed riding it, but was ready for something with even more power. When he saw our Procycles Kawasaki Sydney listing for a 2025 Kawasaki ZH2 - one of the last few available in Australia — he reached out to our sales team to discuss a trade. Peter brought his MT-10 in for inspection. It was immaculately maintained, a clear sign it had been owned by someone who truly loves motorcycles. Once the paperwork was sorted, Peter returned a few days later to collect his new H2 Superbike.

The 2025 Kawasaki ZH2 is a supercharged naked street fighter with 200 horsepower, a 6-speed manual transmission, and a fully integrated TFT screen, for an immersive riding experience. It combines versatility, comfort, and a world-beating supercharged engine for an immersive riding experience. On his new 2025 Kawasaki ZH2, Peter’s riding will be boosted beyond belief. Happy days and a great addition to his collection.

Gary was looking for the perfect commuter bike, and that’s what got him interested in Kawasaki’s brand-new venture into electric motorcycles … the Ninja e-1. The Kawasaki Ninja e-1 is a rider-friendly, lightweight electric motorcycle designed for urban commuting, featuring easy twist-and-go operation, a comfortable riding position, and useful features like Walk mode with reverse. Perfect for Gary. Quiet enough for his neighbourhood, lightweight, and nimble for weaving through traffic, it offers just the right amount of speed for city riding without being overpowering. Gary is one of the first few riders in Australia to secure one of these innovative machines. And at Procycles Kawasaki Sydney we are currently accepting orders for this limited edition machine. It’s hard to compare electric performance with a traditional motorcycle, however the e-1 offers instant electric torque and acceleration. It’s powered by a 9 kW motor, with a regular output of 5 kW. It delivers quick throttle response and strong low-end power, with a torque figure of 40.5 Nm, with peak torque available from 0 to 1,600 rpm. Additionally, the absence of a clutch simplifies operation, making these bikes an ideal entry point for new riders and a convenient option for general commuting.

Andrew from Bowral had been scoutingbikesales.com.aufor his next motorcycle, and came across our BMW 1250 RT, a trade which was in fantastic condition for its age. He rang us at Procycles and after a chat, put down a holding deposit and booked a date to come up and ride it. Andrew arrived and was amazed. The bike looked brand new. At Procycles, we like to present our trades and used motorcycles as best as we can prepare them. Every bike gets the 40-point health check and we endeavour to address any issues we find. This is not an easy process and can be time consuming and expensive. But we do it because we want all of our customers to have a new bike experience. We all ride, so we know what its like to be you. Andrew came back from his test ride very impressed, making comments about the versatility and manoeuverability of a bike that looks so large standing still. Thank you Andrew. We trust you had the best-ever ride back on this beautiful motorcycle.

Nigel was in the market for a new sports tourer. He was looking to replace his Triumph Sprint 1050 and found this Kawasaki 1100 SX at Procycles Kawasaki Sydney. Nigel contacted us, we gave him the run-down on the bike and he brought it sight unseen, just trusting the process. When it was new bike day, Nigel arrived and was really impressed. The new model Ninja looks even better in the flesh. Behind it’s good looks, this sport-touring motorcycle offers a blend of superbike performance and all-day comfort for longer trips. It has a 1,099cc inline-four engine and features a 6-speed transmission, aluminium twin-tube frame, and a 19-litre fuel capacity. The bike also includes advanced features like Kawasaki's Cornering Management Function, Traction Control, and an Assist & Slipper Clutch. And the best bit was, he didn’t have venture out west to buy it. Procycles offers a very different Kawasaki buying experience and we are located right here in the city.

Jamal was looking around for his first litre bike and came across the BMW S1000 RR Sport. This is an amazing bike and Jamal scored an amazing deal at Procycles BMW Hornsby. It’s no wonder he is smiling.

Since its launch nearly 15 years ago, this S1000 RR superbike has undergone ongoing development: the latest model has new, more aerodynamic trim panels with winglets, to the front wheel mudguard with M Brake Ducts, and more performance-oriented details, such as the quick action throttle that reduces the throttle path by 14 degrees. With the Pro riding mode, riders now have a handle on all situations as standard. The Sport variant adds the all-important Dynamic Package with Dynamic Damping Control, Heated Grips and Cruise Control. Plus Jamal gets the Passenger Kit and Tyre Pressure Monitoring.

Christian braved the cold weather to get into Procycles Kawasaki Sydney and collect his brand-new Kawasaki KLX250. He also swerved all the dirt bike hype [and the high prices] from the other brands. Christian was mainly looking for a practical bike he could use for daily transport and maybe go bush on over the weekends.

The Kawasaki KLX250 is known for its reliability and robust build. It’s a solid choice for riders looking for a versatile dual-sport bike that can handle both off-road adventures and daily commuting. A user-friendly, and relatively affordable option for those who want a bike that can do a little bit of everything. 

Christian will be able to ride for hours, at a casual pace, in a natural, comfortable seating position. The engine is nearly vibration-free and the brakes and suspension are surprisingly good. And Christian didn’t have to hike all the way west to buy it. Procycles is located in the city at St Peters and we offer a totally different buying experience. You haven’t shopped around until you have visited Procycles. Australia’s best Kawasaki dealer.

Josh has always been onto his Sport bikes and is currently owns a Kawasaki ZX-10R. So, it was a given that when his son Jonathan came of age, he would want to ride. Plus, Dad liked the idea of having a touring buddy. The family came into Procycles Kawasaki Sydney, originally to look at 500 Ninja, but the budget didn’t stretch that far. So, we showed them this really tidy Ninja 400, reduced the price, and they didn’t think twice. We even put a new set of tyres on the bike … just to keep Mum happy. The Ninja 400 was the best-selling predecessor before the 500 was released, so Jonathan still got a great LAMS bike and won’t lag too far behind his dad when they head out together.

Jamin wanted the lot on his new BMW R1300 GS Adventure, so we ordered it from the factory in the Option 719 variant, with Adaptive Height Control and a full factory luggage pack. When his GSA arrived, Jamin was straight round to get it. He was so keen we were still charging the battery when he was trying to pick it up!

Believe it or not, there are still some naysayers out there, who are posting comments like “this bike has a face only a mother could love.” The truth is, that after a soft start, real adventure motorcyclists are coming onto this new GS Adventure in droves. The word’s out about how good it is to ride … anywhere. At Procycles BMW Hornsby we are getting daily enquiries for change over prices … “how much for my 1250 GS on a new Adventure.”

Yes, the new 1300cc enduro is extreme. It’s winning riders over with its extreme versatility, extreme simplicity, extreme comfort, and extremely smooth running. Experienced long-distance adventure tourers are turning onto the GSA’s masterful handling, both on-road and off-road. And they are amazed by technical advancements in the suite of rider assist electronics. Intuitive and barely noticeable interventions that allow you to ride faster and safer over any surface.

One last word: When you are on the bike you don’t see its face. When you are on the bike you only experience sheer riding pleasure. Isn’t that why you came?

Chaker is a dirt bike rider from way back. He’s ridden off-road all his life and now it’s a time to get into road riding. Chaker has picked an awesome bike to kick things off … a BMW F900 R Sport, from Procycles BMW Hornsby.

The F900 R Sport is a premium and technologically advanced middleweight machine, boasting a 105 bhp twin motor. For 2025, BMW has given this model a make-over and now it’s a stand-out in the class.

New Ergonomics include new handlebar placement and adjusted foot peg positioning, for a more forward-leaning riding position. New upside-down fully adjustable telescopic forks with adjustable damping, rebound, and compression damping with spring preload. New wheels that are approximately 1.8 kg lighter to reduce unsprung weight! (the same dimensions as) the new S1000 R. Plus, a new battery that is 0.8 kg lighter. Total weight savings across the bike are around 3 kg – kerb weight is 208 kg.

And most importantly, now standard on the F900 R, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC), plus ABS Pro, and Dynamic Brake Control (DBC). New styling changes include a slimmer rear end with integrated indicators and brake lights, and new headlight side trim.

Sebastian is new to the wonderful world of riding and had been searching for his first bike for quite some time. He took a thoughtful and methodical approach - researching various models from a wide range of brands. Despite exploring many options, the Kawasaki Z500 consistently stood out and Sebastian decided that the SE model was the perfect choice. It offered the right feel, matched his style, and it already came with the accessories he needed. Next step was to get into Procycles Kawasaki Sydney to have a closer look. Sebastian sat on our Z500 SE and suddenly everything he had been reading about made sense. The comfortable ergonomics with all the controls within easy reach. The lightweight [weighs only 167kg fully fuelled], beginner-friendly balance and low seat-height that inspires confidence. Then there’s the predictable throttle response, light clutch pull, and forgiving handling that make it an excellent choice for those new to motorcycling. Plus, all the extra features that come with the SE variant including its TFT display, USB-C outlet, Two-piece tail cowl, Pillion seat cover, LED turn signals, Tank and Knee pads, Frame sliders, and a Radiator screen. Good work Sebastian.
