Hey Boatyface, I like that! Every time I go for a ride I tell myself, if I go down, I'm going down wearing exactly what I'm wearing right now. So most of the time, I gear up before swinging a leg over the seat. Once in a great while I take that chance.

One engine type you missed entirely is the flat 6 cylinder - used on every Honda GoldWing and the legendary Valkyrie, among others. Because the cylinders are mounted opposite each other, they are incredibly smooth and surprisingly nimble (since the center of gravity is so low). They also have a well-earned reputation for having a VERY long life - many are still running after having 200k or even 300k miles on them.

I have ridden everything from 60cc dirt bike to ZX10R most fun ever had riding was 1975 honda 400 four super sport, back inlate 70s. Fast enough for street use without being crazy dangerous but fun as hell to ride hard. I smiled everytime I got on it. the new ZX4RR is going to be mine at some point same weight as old honda 400 four but twice the hp, I grew up on 125cc 2 stroke dirt bikes, I love revving the piss out of bikes and my zx6 just too fast on street revving to redline in any gear but first 3 but 400 you can wring it out and still be semi sane in speed.

As a 51 yo man who is thinking about getting a bike, with a motor, I’ve been boning up on what the latest and greatest is, when I came across your channel. After a watch or two, I could only shake a feeble fist in the air and with a grimace upon my face murmur something along the lines of; “Gull darn crazy kids. We are all doomed”. Mostly because I didn’t understand WTF you were talking about. But now I do know WTF you are talking about. And for that, thank you!

I'm leaned to the side slightly, speeding up to merge and the entire section of road there is horribly repaired so I hit this massive ramp. When my tire came down, it was violently going side to side. Thanks for letting me know the name of it xD

An amazing amount of information packing into a small time. A Yammie's work is never done. Now to explain: line, breaking point, corner turn in, apex, exit, camber, radius, elevation, traction and the number of degrees a turn encompasses. Most of the later can change mid-turn, It would be far too much to ask explanations of gravity, acceleration, centrifugal force, lean angle and the vector addition of forces at the contact patch (the traction circle). That would require the best of 17th century physics. It's so hard to keep up with the latest advances.

Wow you need to google for book from keith code riding / racing school. Racing books are great for getting ful terms and what they mean . When I first hit street riding at 14 brother got a book from library written by racer I learned many things made me better safer faster rider. The BIGGEST one is counter steering, will save your life. basically ride in straight line in deserted road or parking lot with hands real light on grips push with right hand on bar bike will go right instantly, same with left, you actually push right goright push left go left. they physics is when you push wheel right it forces bike to lean opposite direction, you do it some never even realizing it. once you do you can change directio fast as hell in emergency situation practice it, it is coolest thing i learned from that book. i could explain a lot like speed shifting with no electronic speed shifter the list is long. iF YOU LIKE post I with some questions glad to pass it on but look for books by road racers it is all covered and much more. Knowledge truly is power. The skills you can learn fast will make you safer but most importantly FASTER than guys on faster bikes. Go to any race track when open to public riding a semi pro racer will eat every street rider there on a 400 when thay have 600 and 1000 cc bikes. SKILLS best mod to make and pretty cheap cost of a book or finding a rider who will explain it.

Oh, and I honestly asked myself which was my favorite bike I ever owned …2009 R6, so I promptly purchased a Daytona 660 and most recently an MV Agusta SV 800.

His response of "3 apparently" caught the ear of the woman at the next table. She inquired as to what type of bikes I (the wife) ride, his reply of well, a 1000cc Kawasaki Concours, a 1,400cc Kawasaki Concours, and a Ducati Multistrada Enduro was met with a lengthy blank stare. Once she was able to further engage, her response was "Those are lean over bikes, right?" So glad I wasn't there that day.

In all honesty, this comment gets a lot of votes. I must’ve been drunk when I wrote it. Because Honda actually makes several V4s. The magna, the nighthawk, the VFR, the RC 51. There is several of them and I don’t know what I was actually thinking at that time. My apologies for spreading misinformation

@@pjinxhacks9568 the Magnas used to chew through cams and almost bankrupted the motorcycle division due to warranty claims. I ended up getting a Vmax instead. Also, I'm pretty sure the Nighthawks are inline 4's. Could you be referring to the Sabre? Cheers!

Just for posterity, I want to give the only true and correct definition of a motorcycle squid. -- A squid (water kind) squirts from spot to spot rapidly, makes sudden random directional changes but doesn’t get anywhere fast-oh, they’re also food for anything that’s faster and has teeth.... -- A street squid squirts from spot to spot rapidly, making sudden random directional changes but doesn’t get anywhere fast. They also get eaten by anyone faster and by the grills of large trucks.
