So glad somebody finally mentioned it after all this time. The only time I've heard someone else say it before was Ari Henning. I know a lot of fat blokes who keep yapping about weight reduction, and not seeing the irony of it all.

[@kleinbottled79]

Just an fyi, top speed is determined by drag to HP. Weight actually doesn't directly influence Vmax; just acceleration. From zero it's all power to weight (traction/wheelies not withstanding) gradually transitioning into the power to drag equilibrium that sets top speed provided you aren't limited via gearing.

[@brianrichards782]

Well said

[@midi510]

My first move was to get rid of the catalytic converter and buy an engine map for my 2022 Street Scrambler. Flashed my ECU with my phone and an OBD dongle. Made a noticeable difference in the pull and the exhaust definitely runs cooler.

[@DakuJTenshi]

Funny enough I actually started losing weight when I started riding a motorcycle maybe it's because how much effort you have to put into riding, or the fact that you sweat like a madman on longer rides. Or maybe cause drivethrus are a pain in the ass on a motorcycle. But I've actually been losing weight. Which means I'm gaining power to weight ratios 😈

[@Farhan.DucatiS1k]

I actually feel the same way. in the damn heat with all the gear sweating like crazy and long 3-5 hr rides being sore is the way to go.. lol

[@bleh8310]

"An extra 10lbs to shed". . . . Yeah, I totally only have 10lb excess.... I didn't say 50, who said 50? 😅😭

[@AllboroLCD]

my 94 CB250 cost me about $100. Another $300 to get er road worthy once more. After 3-4K miles, I opted tor an 80$ sprocket kit which easily netted me an extra 15-20mph top speed. Moved onto iridium plugs & perf CDI unit, about $100, and K&N filter $70. Helped me maintain the extra top speed I gained bigtime! Being still under 1k spent on the bike, I went and ordered a big bore kit for her! 233cc to 275cc! In the midst of fitting the whole thing out as I speak. Pretty certain ill at least be able to give a new rebel 300 a run for its money when all said n done : D

[@Dmots4lyfe]

After watching this video I swapped the OEM air filter with a K&N on my scrambler sixty2 and what a FREAKING difference! I love it ! Thank you!

[@alanaspurling6469]

I love racing my CBR250R, I’ve stripped it down to the minimum. My next step is to turn it into a CBR300R… and adding a Power Commander. My competition is R3’s and Ninja 300’s. Several of these items weren’t legal in California… and I had to purchase it via friends out of state… the PC5 was especially hard to purchase, but the slip-on removed the built in catalytic converter as well.

[@molonlabe9602]

Simple way #1...sprockets and air fliter. #2....add a better exhaust to #1, but you should get your ECU remapped for correct AFR (air-fuel ratio) at this point. #3...do numbers 1 and 2 and do go on a diet (Noob's #6). Rider weight reduction directly improves your bike + rider performance outcomes. I've done sprockets (-1 front, +1 back) and installed a reusable stainless steel air fliter that was only $15 for my bike model. Considerable difference off the line but higher RPM's on the highway (about 10% of my riding).

[@opeboi1539]

“Be careful because you can easily make your bike incapable of highway speeds” haha jokes on you papa yams my bike pretty much already is

[@danielpassarelli4176]

Also take in account that opening holes in the airbox might cause your intake to pull in hotter air since it wasn't meant to intake though those holes, Hotter air means less oxygen, less oxygen makes the combustion less efficient As I continue to watch the video, going on a diet could really help my bike! Lol

[@RestorationgroupOrgRIFT]

None of this is necessary if you get the PERFECT beginner bike, the BUSA!

[@elijahmeckley]

That rokform ad was smooth

[@Knoxvillemoto]

Different gearing can in fact mean more torque....it does not mean more power. Power = torque X RPM (with some additional conversion factors). When you change the gearing, you trade RPM for additional torque. Ultimately power never changes......because physics.

[@4270dave]

Thanks Yam. I like how you present your information. It’s riding wisdom without talking down to your audience. I’m thinking the Kawasaki Z900abs for me.

[@ApatheticMii]

Great bike. Bang for the buck is great on it as well. Moto jitsu has very high praise for his new z900

[@myaccount4400]

Easiest way is also take out tools provided in every bike (100-150grams) add lighter battery (200-250gram) 0.5kg lighter bike improve acceleration by 0.1sec maybe but still improve handling

[@lekooky2877]

I used to be 203lbs and wanted to ride a motorcycle. But seeing how I would look like a muffin on one. I lost weight over the next year and am now sub 160. Now I got myself a ktm duke 200!

[@Navieri]

About to pick up an H2, need to cut the bikes weight as much as I can lol

[@joaomarques7180]

Weight doesnt affect top speed, it affects how fast you get there, top speed is affected by aerodinamic drag and power

[@bleh8310]

Drag (naked versus faired, or upright versus tucked) does make a more noticeable difference, but you said yourself power affects top speed. 100hp will move 500lbs faster than it will move 600lbs assuming the same drag due to increased friction from the downward force. Yes real world this is insignificant, but weight does still affect top speed.

[@dimjat]

[@ninazu7307]

I am just looking to make my honda CBR 125 R to hit 100kph a little bit better. Going up a hill makes me go 80 or 90. Hitting a 100 on a highway is not that hard but keeping it up kinda is. Also hitting a 110 has happened to me only once. Normally google and the spedometer tells you its 120kph (max speed) but they're off by 10. Idk when it starts to lie about the speed but i usually go 10 above the speed limit.

[@midi510]

I find it hard to believe that a manufacturer would put an air filter on a motorcycle that's restrictive enough to reduce power. Since power output is a key selling/marketing point, they would be stupid to restrict it with an inefficient air filter. Buying a quality paper filter and changing it when it's needed is good enough for me. If you want to buy a $100 air filter and spend the money on cleaner and oil/reconditioner and then do the work to clean and oil it, go ahead.

[@molonlabe9602]

Most high flow air filters are washable/reusable for the life of the bike. I'm certain that over a few years, that $100 investment is less than buying paper filters and throwing them away, not to mention an increase in performance...YMV.

How can I learn to take from stop right hand turns ?

[@bleh8310]

Best option is take a rider course as it should cover that and much more if it's reputable at all. Otherwise, you can think of it like a U turn if it's tight only you'll have to work the friction zone and throttle a bit more to get going while you counter balance for the turn. If it's a wider turn but requires the wheel to be turned immediately, you can do the same. Just avoid fully turning the bars (full lock) of possible and allow a bit more throttle to get you going. Otherwise you can counter balance until you have momentum/speed to start counter-steering. Practice counter-steering, counter-balancing, being precise with small clutch and throttle applications, and using a healthy dose of dragging the rear brake to become a slow-speed pro.

[@ApatheticMii]

Motojitsu has a great video on making sharp turns from a stop. Parking lot practice would be my recommendation. Spend 10-20 minutes every ride on slow speed practice in a parking lot.
