Image Gallery ( 5 images )Like most of these awards, we thoroughly concur with the MBI choice of the SportVue MC2 Heads Up Display. “We selected the MC2 Heads Up Display due to it's high tech approach to safety,” says Werner. “We liked the way that we can now ride our bike and keep our eyes on the road without having to check speed, specially in today's digital radar madness.”
Best Web Presence - BMW
“We thought that the BMW websites informed the customer the best,” says Werner. “With its configurator, stories, newsletters and very detailed information, it satisfies the information hungry reader the best.”
Most Promising New Concept Motorcycle - Ducati HyperMotard
Not surprisingly, this award went to Ducati’s HyperMotard concept which has been lauded by motrcycle journalists everywhere. “It’s sexy and stylish and was seen, almost unanimously as the most promising motorcycle concept,” says Werner. “It has everything we'd look for in a new motorcycle; versatility, power, performance.”
Best New Everyday Motorcycle - Triumph Scrambler
This award went to the Triumph Scrambler. “The new Scrambler has everything required for an every day motorcycle,” explainsWerner. “Looks, ease of use, it’s light, it's a bike that can be used anywhere, on road and even off road. You can throw it around, go into the city for a loaf of bread.”
