The BMW G 450 X - on sale in Australia from September 20 - comes ready to race direct from the factory and the German manufacturer says it will deliver ultimate performance for racing or the enthusiast enduro rider.
Following the success of the BMW HP Enduro and HP2 Megamoto in the USA, Spain and here in Australia, the DOHC single-cylinder four-stroke machine - said to produce 37kW and 48Nm - represents another step forward in the competition-bred enduro motorcycle market, BMW says.
Eissions are kept under control with the latest generation fuel injection and with a computer-controlled three-way catalytic converter in the G 450 X.
With the same frame and swing out arm layout as the G 650 X, the new compact bike will be lighter, and should have improved off-road traction.
Daniel Kertcher established Platinum Pursuits in 2001 as a vehicle in which to share his knowledge of strategies to use the financial markets to grow wealth, with the aim of achieving financial freedom by making your money work for you.
His argument is that until you become financially literate and develop a method where you're able to get a reasonable return on your capital (i.e. making your money work for you), you will instead be forever working hard for your money.
Daniel Kertcher personally achieved financial freedom at a relatively young age, through his knowledge of property and then financial markets investing. Through using Options and leveraged instruments such as CFDs, Daniel developed a system to trade the markets where he could benefit from the leverage when the trade went in the direction he predicted, and hedged his positions so that there was a limited downside risk.
Some people in the past have criticised Daniel's message of striving for financial freedom in a high-risk environment such as trading derivatives. However, it is not Daniel's or Platinum Pursuits' goal to encourage everyone to trade the financial markets. Every kind of investing contains an element of risk, so this level of education is aimed specifically for those who want an understanding of professional trading techniques and strategies that they hope to apply to their own capital, and it is absolutely true that many people are not yet in a position to invest a chunk of their savings.
To be truly financially literate, it can pay to explore all the options available when you are in a position to try to get ahead in life. Daniel currently presents free introductory seminars nationally on selected dates from February to November.
