How to make your motorcycle Faster

In this video I go over many mods that you can do to your slow stock motorcycle to turn it into something a bit faster and a lot more fun.
Some mods are super straight forward while others require some mechanical knowledge but there is no better time than now to learn.

[@zachsheffield1325]

One cheap way to make your bike go faster. Is to reduce your own body weight through proper diet & exercise!! Exercise is very important! Also Apple cider vinegar is not a bad thing to take a little three times per day.

[@supergamer303]

Cheers, you made my day 😂

[@Motorcyclecbr]

ACV is really only effective if you’re fasting. But if it’s helping you lose weight than I don’t see a problem!! I would highly suggest lcarnitine. Supplements can help but calorie deficit will do more than anything

Coughs soo I got a CB1 125 any modifications you would prefer, I've always wondered lol my gauge says 140 but struggles to get up to 120 I've changed my sprockets but it still seems to be lacking

[@TheMotorcycleForge]

I would start with a free flowing exhaust and a flat slide carb. It depends how far you want to modify it aswell. For example if you really want it to fly you could fit a better cam shaft, big bore kit, increase the compression ratio and some light porting. After that it would definitely get to 140 but the engine will be under more stress. Hope this helps.

[@TheMotorcycleForge]

Depend on how much time and money you want to invest in it. Easy stuff is open up the airbox a bit, rejet the carbs to suit or even get some cr race carbs for it, the stock exhaust is not terrible but you could get performance one which would be a bit lighter and less restrictive. Even further in you could port the head, get the cams reground and up the compression or the fastest option by a superbike.

[@TheMotorcycleForge]

There isn't much info on the web about them. If it's carb'd a free flow air filter and rejetting the carb is the cheapest option, if it's injected you will need a fuel tuner for it. After that a tuned exhaust system will help heaps.

Hi I'm going to be getting the honda xr150l. The first three things I want to change are wheels, handle bars and new muffler if I can find the parts. What else would you recommend I do to make it lighter and faster? I live in Arkansas USA. Thanks for this awesome video.

[@TheMotorcycleForge]

It has a very small 22mm carb on it, I would definitely be upgrading that to a bigger carb, 24mm or 26mm. That's the easiest one, if your mechanically minded, some porting, reground cam and up the compression from the stock 9.5to 1 and it will go a lot faster, do the simple stuff first and see how it goes.

I think it would be the main part you would need. You may need wiring stuff to fit it to your wiring harness.
