Sorry Chopsie that blow off valve is not for me! ☹️

[@LambChopRides]

Yeah it's certainly a bit different! 🤣

[@percusski]

Don't know if it's the mic, but that didn't sound great to me, almost like there's a problem 🤷‍♂️

[@darrenramshaw2521]

Yep that would get on my tits 😂

[@greyanaroth]

I must chime in: That hiss would annoy the crap out of me ASAP

[@terenceokeeffesmotorcyclestuff]

Not for me, the hiss novelty would wear off very quickly.

[@TismeJohnDee]

That valve sounds like my Mrs when I need to spend money on my bike.

[@jaredshelton4718]

Lmao

[@Unfunny_Username_389]

Wow that would annoy me no end.

[@tonypammen3398]

That blowoff ! Nah , you had me when you pulled away and then..... hissing sid made an appearance nah . Love the bike apart from that

[@LambChopRides]

Haha hissing Sid 🤣

[@davidcraig1794]

How to chav an H2,stick a blow off valve on it.All that is doing is masking the sound of the supercharger chirping which,in my opinion,sounds much better than the hissing sound.Reminds me of a steam train 🚂

[@adrianmulvey8919]

I'd rather have the hiss of the new turbosmart blow off valve compared to the crap factory valve that doesn't get rid of the overboost fast enough in braking. It makes the brakes feel wooden and counterproductive, having a motorcycle wishing to accelerate whilst you the rider wants to stop.

[@johnmorris5809]

Chops you’ve made that fantastic bike sound like Fred Dibnah’s traction engine. Wouldn’t mind a go on it though....😃

[@mrfiftyfifty9974]

In the words of 44teeth, Get in the sea!!! that valve sounds horrendous.. But each to their own.

[@LambChopRides]

Haha yes agree 🤣

[@satchitysatch]

Love that bike but that blow off thingy would drive me nuts!

[@andrewwiltse8882]

Congratulations, no more lockdown!👍 Back to enjoying life to the fullest. Kawasaki really outdid themselves with the H2.🍻

[@capybara931]

Every single video is a gem. Hopefully you will go for a ride with Griz & Taffy, love them. Your H2 is absolutely fantastic and I love it. Keep up the great work and God Bless.

[@MT10dan88]

I think your Reviews and Vids are the best on KZbin. Great clear footage. YOU speak alot sense and your knowledge is fantastic. You don't waste time talking bollocks or about sponsors etc.. Best of all your ENGLISH 👏🏻👏🏻.. GREAT WORK again Chopsie. Meet up for a ride soon ay 🔥👍🏻

[@RE650NZGraeme]

Glad to see you happy and full of fun! Chops is Back!!

[@mohammadrasoulfard-habibi3066]

That bike is simply epic. Great video mate.

[@petereeves1354]

Very diplomatic of youse Chops. I've wood 'av given her a few 'choice' wurds. Great vid cheers, keep 'em coming. Pete in Italy.

[@highoctane6730]

Love the sound so much. Just ordered a BOV for my h2

[@lynsmith1096]

Great to see the H2 out with you.

[@ragerider6283]

Very cool. No doubt great to be out & riding a bike in the sun, especially the H2 in all it's glory. Although never heard a bike make so many random weird & wonderful noises lol.

[@michaeldolan9812]

Love it 😍 Great vid Mr chops 👍👍

[@bfkrug]

That sounds awesome!

[@dougie1325]

OMG John that blow off valve hahaha 😂 I thought the number 10 bus was coming around the corner. It would drive me up the wall. Such a lovely bike fella.

[@georgea5335]

Sounds like a cheeky racoon gently deflating a balloon. Not the usual blower sound but I think I could get used to it in a week. 😁

[@streebs06]

The noise on downshifts! Glorious!

[@motor_ma77]

Can’t beat a Lamps ride in the morning to pick you up👍🏻 fantastic chops. I thought I had a gas leak when that valve went off 🤣💨

[@GamingCornerYT]

sounds like your running on flat tyres round the bends haha 🤣

[@missydee6085]

It's heartening to hear that Hissing Sid is alive & well - and has taken up residence on the H2. (That's definitely one for the kids!) 🥳

[@adognamedsight..]

What a stunning bike

[@davexs]

Love the wave and the mouthed 'Hi' on the woman's face as she parked the car......Must of been filmed in Surrey...haha OMG Chop's I had head phones on and it sounded like a bag of cutlery the first time. I turned the volume down and the sound was better. What a hoot, I can see why you love the H2. You had me in stiches, take it easy guys and then 2 minutes later, whoosh and hiss. Great video, I enjoyed that.

[@glenwhyte2555]

What a bike.. the nearest thing to Doc Browns time travelling machine money can buy and now sounds like it 👍 Fantastic fun 🖐

[@JEmmertz]

Wowsa, it really inhales and exhales, and it delivers! If I had the choice, no matter the vehicle type, I would take the supercharger over turbo any day. As you mention it adds throughout the rev. range, and you don't have to wait for it to arrive at the wheel. So much fun to watch this and hear it. 🏍👍

[@mattimoto]

That bike is epic, and that blow off valve sound🤩

[@LambChopRides]

Yeah it's a bit special now 👍

[@mattimoto]

Everyone needs a bike that when you want to give it some it makes you feel so bloody happy.

[@mostlymotorbikes]

Good video Chops. I need to get myself a go on one of those. It’s evaded me so far....

[@robday2601]

Good video chops the H2 is awesome, the bike sounds mental I'm personally not 100% sure on the blow off valve but hope your enjoying it 👍

[@LambChopRides]

Yeah to be far sound better in person, sounds louder in the as its close to the helmet mic being under tank. Exhaust sounds louder in person

[@JayEss414]

thats awesome . that bike is a symphony

[@10secondsrule]

Pulls like a steam engine finally got the meaning for this bike. I’m loving it!

[@simonrobinson7536]

Looks and sounds like you had a good day

[@trevorwillis3950]

I was expecting the H2 sound like turbo car of the 90s lol at least people here you coming.

[@LambChopRides]

Actually Trevor that's what I expected! Guess it's because superchargers make power even on rollon hence constant boost off throttle

[@TheStriker0525]

@@LambChopRides try this kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4PQYXhojriXrdU

[@JammNickk]

@@LambChopRides maybe a stiffer spring in the blow off valve will make it sound a tad sweeter. Everyone goes nuts for a flutter

[@paulrodgers9162]

Simply brilliant 👍

[@jameshendry27]

That thing is lethal... Stay safe Chops 👍

[@brucekendall52]

One special bike.Thanks for sharing.

[@_Archambaud]

Good sound.great content and machine

[@laz8872]

Nice video Chopsy! 👌

[@whittlad]

That is one epic bike Mr. Chops👏🙌

[@MotoQuickShifter]

Awesome video Sean Chops, though you were going to make a video on the fitting of the BOV ...to be fair i was looking forward to it oh well its all good in the hood , ive got a long way to go on my new H2 💚💚💚

[@liamkeating3623]

Lovely looking bike!!

[@OSR_1]

bike is looking lovely (sounded good the other week when I was at Loomies and heard you taking off lol). Need to get those stickers off that beautiful tank though!

[@LambChopRides]

Ah did you hear it haha, took the stickers off the standard tank and left a mark so not touching these ones!

[@OSR_1]

Yeah! The whole car park went silent and turned to the direction haha 😆. Sounds mega. Ah damn, ok well that’s fair enough then!

[@davidelizabeth4933]

That blow off valve has more attitude than Mavis. Love it!

[@theonlyredspecial]

Thanks for the video. Always entertaining and good to watch. I'd love to say I love this but can't say I'm a fan of sid the snake there. As long as you enjoy it all that matters. Still cool video mate and as always give you a thumbs up 👍

[@skyview6gh]

Awesome video for an awesome bike 👍

[@stephenchapman8344]

Looks like fun! 😀👍

[@willhoult]

Sounds good

[@MrSpeedking86]

Alright chopsy! Good vid but that bov would do my head in. Each to there own I guess. Keep up the good work ol' boy, chops away!

[@Koldsmith]

Some like it, some dislike it - I quite like that the bike is pissy at you because you're not accelerating :D

[@Smudge64]

Crazy Bike!

[@h2actual406]

Hey I love the blow off valve. I have one on mine as well. It's very LOUD!

[@LambChopRides]

👍👍 seems its not getting much love here 🤣

[@headrace4863]

Fantastic.... if you’re gonna have an outrageous machine then why not turn it up to 11. It’s all the experience and to personal taste. Whilst it’s not for everyone that doesn’t mean it’s for no-one. Thumbs up from me. Carry on, Sir. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@GregNice718]

I love that noise

[@twowheelsoneleg5672]

That's taken me back "Ivor the Engine" :-)

[@pistolpete6321]

Epic motorcycle!

[@steveyork8069]

That would drive me nuts,looked at them,thanks for saving me $$$.👍🏍

[@karnal1710]

Excellent

[@thehoot55]

I love the blow off valve. My son and I both have it on our Zh2. Your description that it’s all adds to the drama made me laugh because I know what you were talking about. But I am an immature 64 year old

[@myagoodbody7942]

Enjoying the shhhhhhhh! Are you going to add the water cooled plenum chamber

[@Section59.]

blow off needs to release faster for that proper blow off psshh sound, just sounds like theres puncture or a boost leak as it is atm

[@umadbroyolo8413]

That's not how they work with a supercharger. Supercharger is driven by a pulley, so as long as your revs are up, it's making boost - even if you are coasting down the road in gear without using throttle.

[@helmethair4880]

Holy moly! the sounds this thing makes 😍 I never noticed the supercharger whine before love it!

[@HalfdeadRider]

How, you could hear that just the same lol the whistle was nice too, better than the smart actuator imo. The whistle as standard was a little more like a tuned cars actuator, which Mr Chops understands I'm sure as he had a nice RS500 Cossie some years back.

[@helmethair4880]

@@HalfdeadRider yeah at 7.20 very briefly it sounds like a whine I like that, the flutter I love. Not 100% keen on the blow off it goes on for to long, if it was a quick woosh like a turbo blow off then it would be great!

[@HalfdeadRider]

@@helmethair4880 I think the manufacturer could change the shape of the exit to improve the sound, it is the same thing as a turbo Actuator/blow of valve/dump valve.

[@bunnydaduk]

Good work. Watch your licence !

[@paulvanhout9695]

You passed TMF’s white van and with authority I must say!

[@steviepaynter7456]

Love the bike though looks special

[@grumpynighthawk9323]

Hopefully you do some reviews on the new Tuono V4, loved your old Tuono videos. I've searched through your videos but can't remember where exactly it was but can you tell me what backpack you use again.....is it a Motocross one??......thanks..🤓

[@paintmedic3291]

As you say chopsy, the drone footage went well 😂🤣🤣. Lovely bike though.

[@1FromTheTree]

Great video Chops, maybe her timing wasn't the best with the parking space.... but at least she gave the camera a big smile :-)

[@LambChopRides]

Haha yeah she did indeed 🤣👍

[@Romz416]

Seems there is life in it... amazing ! Your tires looks like the Power Gp, is it right? What's your feeling about it? Thank you !

[@kylelambourne8585]

Cheddar is my neck of the woods be good to see u there chops

[@tigerick7291]

Turbo dump valves sound great. I'm not sure about the supercharged version though. Seriously nuts bike though.👍

[@Miester7]

Great road a272 was there this week

[@windyrun7979]

Yes Womble and the Tuono!!

[@bakedbeanzontoast9078]

Oh no Chops it'll get all salt dust over it off the roads, I must come over and polish it for you.....!!!!, she's looking good though in the spring sunshine. 👍👍👍👍🇬🇧

[@cmdrglorny6471]

Love the supercharger whine but wouldn't be able to get on with that HISS ! Not what I was expecting it to sound like and methinks it would get very annoying after a while, but as long as you enjoy it that's all that matters ;) Happy riding :)

[@funkyfin3023]

Lovely ride. Not a fan of that blow off valve though. Spot on about building up the pace after a long break. Is the lunatic on 2 wheels you or the bike......cheers chops.

[@kieranmanners170]

Im probably one of the younger viewers (30) and as much as i like the H2 and owning a Diavel previously, that blow off is too out there 😂

[@deanharris9331]

Awesome 👌 🙂

[@mfpix]

I'm surprised that the turbo blow off valve does the same thing for a supercharger. Awesome bike.

[@stefanheeren4519]

Je bike sounds like an espresso machine with that blow off valve. Besides that, she's a beauty :)

[@Leon-Jordan]

Maybe increase spring tension in the BOV? just so it isn't a constant HISSS lmao. Its cool, but not for me lol. Great vid as always!

[@LickyDischarge]

Is there a way to make the pressure to release more sharply? Sounds just a little bit odd to me Chops. Still an epic bike!!! And I’d love to have a go on it 😅

[@joesti7607]

I need a turbo smart bov on mine!

[@Kevin24Seven]

IDK why people are not liking the blowoff valve... that sounds insane!

[@dannyracer25]

Great video chops such a lovely bike don't like the blow of prefer the tweet still great bike though thanks from danny

[@JetMB]

Wicked bike..

[@michaelarchangel1163]

I read somewhere that blow off valves are supposed to give a turbocharger's bearings a bit of an easier time, but does that apply to superchargers, as they're 'never off', if I can put it that way ?

[@markshepheard2955]

Love the videos , the blow of valve would annoy me though . Sounds like an air brake on a lorry .

[@kevinmill7965]

Seen vids of bov on these and shows blowing a mist from the turbosmart.. surely that mist is gonna cover under tank top of lump with muck over time?

[@Kohlenstofffasermonster]

Damn you, why did I watch it..... now I want to get an H2 again hahaha!

[@neilallen460]

Hello. Could you let me know details about the dump valve and set up. I want to add this to my H2. Thank you.

[@jody6183]

Is the blow off valve messing with the fuelling ? I know a lot of Turbo/SC cars measure the air before it is re-routed by the OEM valves and fitting a vent to atmosphere upsets the car as it adds fuel for the measured air thats dissapeared....
