I love how 3 cylinder bikes can sound like big 6 cylinder cars
AirCooledGaming lol no
Lol no not at all?
AirCooledGaming yes they do
I think the yamaha xs 750 sounds like a baby lancia stratos its awesome
Well 3 cylinder 2 strokes also sounds like the 3 rotor
3 cylinders sound better than 2 or 4 for me.
Yes, the singles thump, the twins are lumpy, the 4's whine but the
triples sound like a snarling beast.
U r r8t
V4 tho
@@chechenwojak5671 I like Yamaha's crossplane inline 4 tho, ngl.
I think I prefer V2 over 3 cyl.
A 70's Triumph /BSA triple racer with an open megga has the best triple sound by far!
I kinda miss the MT-09
I was hoping to find the howl of my 1969 Triumph Trident -that was music to my ears.
Next video best sounding electric cars
I WANT THAT VIDEO
Full of Formula E cars, they produce nice sounds because of their straight-cut gearboxes
VisioRacer owned
How about best sounding bicycles?!
ILLUMINATUS Only one.... Remac Concept One.
Triumphs entire line of triples fill this list all by themselves. Meridan and Hinckley. That's a no brainer.
Have you ever heard a XS750 with open air filters and a replaced muffler? It is like music.
And i´m driving a Hinckley Triple... ;-)
all those bikes sound so good especially the 2 stroke ones
+Kevin Mays Two Rocket 3 lumps have been made into a bike to bring the land speed record back to Triumph. Guy Martin is the rider
With 3 hemi-head cylinders, the original Triumph Trident and BSA 750s had a wicked sound on acceleration, especially with an aftermarket exhaust. My 2010 Triumph 675cc STR with Arrow 3-1 exhaust and QuickShifter is something else when the revs go past 10,000!
No Triumph 675 Daytona R?!? No Triumph Speed Triple?! What is this?!?
Right bro im saying wtf
In my opinion modern Triumph triples don't sound as good as the older variants because of that awful built in whistle they have..
Was the 675 Daytona out 5 years ago?
@@skinnydipper3493 Owning a T-Bird sport, fairly modern compared to the Hurricane, I can't find any whistle whatsoever no matter idling or torquing ...
(Edit: .... wanna hear my K75 whine? Or the MT09? Collecting 3cylinder bikes has its perks 😃)
@@manfredschmalbach9023I'm curious..what exactly is a thunderbird sport and how many cylinders does it have.
I have a friend who owns a Triumph Trident from the good old days, absolutely standard, it has the most beautiful sound, nothing like it on here! Keep Her Lit Wilfie!
It’s the Yamaha XS 750 for me. What an engine sound
Good memories, I had the Suzuki GT550 and my brother had the Kawasaki H 750, both of those sounds are unmistakable! I really wanted to get the water cooled GT750 but moved to Kawasaki 1000ST instead, it was so smooth. The vibration on the Kawasaki H2 was unreal, over 130 km/hr we couldn't see in the mirrors anymore.
The 180 Laverda 3c, available in UK in trick kit as the Jota, was an absolute monster. The 180 crank was amazing. Under 5k it felt like a big parallel twin, gobs of torque, but where a twin starts to feel harsh and gaspy the 180 loses any pretence of being civilised and just goes NUTS. OK it's a bit rougher than a 120 but these are grin factories.
Got to love the piped 2 strokes
the straight pipe 2 stroke sound shit
i really love the power pipe sound
Nothing, and I mean " NOTHING " sounds like a Laverda 1000 Jota with Slater Brothers pipes ! Oh, and that Lime Green XS750 cafe is the business !😎👍
@ 4.10 - 4.17 minutes, yep I had a Laverda 1000 3cyl.. glad to hear that sound again. Very powerful for sure.
Great! I love those bikevideos! These were, in my opinion, the last thing missing in your chanel. :D
I've owned two out of these. The XS750 had torque for miles, and the sound was unbelievable, even with stock pipes. Also owned a K75, and it was smooth as butter. Also had a Triumph Sprint 1050 ST, same motor as the 1050 Speed Triple.
The 675 should be here.
Its aweaome that i affected this channel so much that you started making more bike videos
:) Motorcycle engines are special, indeed
I love 3 cylinders sound
Can't beat the sweet sound of a triple. Great to see a Suzuki GT550 in there - my Dad had one of those in his youth, he also had the water cooled GT750 aka 'the kettle' too - I was around to experience that one... Glorious music it made on both tick over and under acceleration.
I remember the best sounding triple I’ve owned. It was a GT Mach One. It had 3 clothespins with 3 playing cards in each one. 2 in the front and one in the back. Then I grew up. Triumph was the only manufacturer to lock down 3 cylinder power, but they’re still budget engines.
In this video, the Kawasaki 750 sounded the best without question! And one passed me years ago when I was driving up the London on the M2, I saw a bike coming up fast and wound the window down. Awesome sound! But from the rest, yes, the early Laverda triple had an amazing sound.The problem with a compilation like this is the different mic and recording quality in the cameras used in each clip.
Ah,triples rool! A nicely varied selection of the breed in this vid!
awesome video! nice job man
OOH Yes mate how I loved those years
No Daytona 675R??
Had a 1975 triumph T150 WITH 3 into 1 flat out howling magic .MEMORIES AYE .
8:00 come on man, get off the throttle when you shift
Razerphynx Yeah but not when you're shifting up.
Doubt he is even using a clutch
CockatooDude Correct
Not This Guy Again Apparently bike has a quickshifter, which allows rider to upshift without getting off throttle and using clutch.
No that is not a quickshifter. quickshifter has the sound like a dubble clutch and is instant. To me it sounds like he isn't letting go of the throttle! But I also though that it was a quickshifter at first
I had 3 Benelli TNTs and now own a MV Dragster. Plenty of Hinckley Triumphs too. Got to love triples 👍
My Xs 750 triple was the only bike I bought new. Loved the sound and with a vetter fairing a nice touring bike.
When I was a kid I had a Suzuki GT550. I loved how "RAM AIR SYSTEM" was so boldly machined into the top cover.
No BSA Rocket 3 ? if you ever heard of one especially a Rob North triple with the 3 into 1 pipe it would be number 1.
mac163 I just put exactly that. Trouble is all these guys think that bikes have just been invented.
Yes, The Rocket 3 and Triumph Trident with Megaphone/s are the neatest sounding Triples. If you ever heard Jim Rice's (BSA Race Team) Rocket 3 Dirttracker or Gary Nixon's Trident 3 Dirttracker on the Mile Tracks in 1970 AMA Racing you would easily agree. Lots of HP on the Straights but the weight and width of the Engine wasn't favorable among Racers in the Corners verses the A70 BSA or T140 Bonneville 750 twins. Neat Sounding with that definite Brit Bike Exhaust Tone ...
A glaring omission. Unbelievable.
I agree.
the T150 was just bloody beautiful both to ride and to listen to ..i had two and never worked out if they sounded better taking off or gearing down
Enjoyed that!
Great
Wow, this was a really well-made video.
Thank you very much
The first XS static (parked) sounded like it had a miss. The Kawasaki H2 is (was) quite a bike. I rode a Euro version in West Germany in 1975. It was new belonging to a Dale King (RIP) an army buddy. He let me ride it.I had it up to an indicated 240KPH (150MPH) and it still had a bit more to go. I had to slow because my upper lip blew over my face. Dale told me the Euro versions were a complete different animal that the US got. The US versions were only good for 119MPH. I was very lucky to have ridden it. My present "ride" is a 1979 Yamaha SR500 (OHC single) with a Hi-Per-Kinetics Stage Two 650 engine. Has about 13 more HP than stock but sure feels like a lot more! Search: "Hi-Per-Kinetics" (Cycle Magazine May 1979) for a period article on the company. They made a Stage Four @ 716cc. Must be nice...By the way, revving an engine not under load is hell on the connecting rod caps/screws.
I'm biased but I love my Yamaha XS850. Sounds amazing, great mid range power... reliable, and easy to maintain... Kawasaki H1 is love but Yamaha is the best one to live with :)
Ian Thompson 98
I started riding on a '79 XS750. LOVED the sound that bike made. I also owned a '92 BMW K75, it was ... tamer, but still pulled like a train. Last Triple I owned was an '08 Triumph Sprint ST 1050. Very distinctive sound to that one too.
A Bombardier 850 tripple on the pipe gives me goose bumps. . .🥰
those sounds.. omg!
Yamaha XS and MV Agusta !!!!! FANTASTIC in Sound and Look !!!!!!
You missed off the best sounding bikes in my opinion. The BSA Rocket 3 750 and the Triumph Trident 750 of the late 60's and early 70's! especially in race trim with a 3 into 1 exhaust system.
Triumph Hurricane, BSA Rocket 3, T150, T160 but how the hell can you do a triples thing without a Hurricane, it's arguably the best looking and sounding motorcycle ever made and one of the most sought after.
I had the 850 Yamaha 3 cylinder. Loved the sound
Damn they all sound so damn awesome lol
That H2... ON THE PIPES!!!
revtune The Kawasaki H1 was vicious cycle, too.
BIGBLOCK5022006 Indeed it was.
buen video.... como siempre!!!!!
good video but in my opinion these two deserved to be on your list :
Triumph T595 series (daytona, speed triple... all with 955 cc engines)
Triumph 900 cc series (daytona, speed triple, sprint, tiger, t-bird)
Jim Fueling's 150 CI W3 engine
Hubert Arnaud
With the high mounted pipe
T595 only motorcycle l have ever owned that had cops follow me and ask what it was because it sounded so good. (Twice) Triumph accessory high pipe. Major omission. Tuned and piped water buffalo was good, stock not so much. Xs750 and 850 triples never did much for me with sound but l really liked the 750 styling on the original model. Spec 2 in Southern California built a really fast Xs 750 to club road race at Willow Springs.
I am twostroke fan and love the GT550 with standard exhaust!
I think that these bike videos are rally interesting and that you should make more of them! You should make a video comparing 1,2,3,4,5.. cyl bikes
what about the Triumph Trident? or the Bsa Rocket 3
He forgot this beast....
(Or he is to young to know about.... )
Regards from Berlin.. ;-)
czcams.com/video/0lq_1uFzTqk/video.html
sounds like (no pun intended) a job for you guys to do one better than this guy on his channel.
Myself, there is no better than an H2 with killer Denco expansion chambers and 40mm mikunis ;)
thats easy! any triumph tripple ie T150/160 , h1&h2 kwacker 2 stroke (even kh250/400) and the laverda jota. all of em musical
Couldn't help but subscribe
I couldn't help, but say thanks
Had a couple H2's back in the day. A red one and a blue one. Also had 2 'Cudas, a '72 and a '70. Now I just need a time machine!! haha
Exactly what i needed dakujem
;)
Thee best sounding triple is a 70's Triumph Trident. Used to ride from SF bay area to Santa Cruz via Skyline and highway 9 behind my buddies Trident, what a sweet sound! I was on my 72' BMW R75 (short shaft) a pretty thrum of it's own!
I like the fact that the source of the video is being presented.
I love 2 strokes ! I had a bucket load RD's T'S, YZ, DT's but by far and away my favourites were the GT's, i had the full set at one time, and their were quite a few of them. The best for me were the 380 and 750, these things felt incredibly fast at the time, after a little bit of turning up. Quite a lot of people didn't like them because they had to keep getting the middle Carb sorted, I was lucky enough to have a knack with them, and i managed to find them quite cheep, i once bought one that was delivered to me in 2 Tea chests, for 20 quid because the fella couldn't put it back together, I dropped his money off the next day when I rode the bike to his workshop. I'm fortunate enough to have a few bikes now, all very nice, buy unfortunately not a 2 stroke amongst them, i miss the sound of that frantic reving, the smell and that mad off the line speed. Do you know, I think I'm due another bike, I think I'll make this a two stroke, but probably not one of the above, their too fugkin dear.
H2, RD 350. ( Restored Suzuki T10 for sale )
make more motorcycle videos please. They're really good :)
Don't worry, many more are in my schedule
nice video!
For me it's my H1 from 1971, the turbine noise on higgspeeds is awesome. When I want to corner and stop I jump on my RS250.
Two stroke sound !😘😘😘😘😘
more bike stuff!!!
Yup, don't worry, more is coming
That Triumph :3
The Jota had no baffles in the silencers which gave it a nice roar as it hit the power band and it crackled when you shut the throttle.
One of my dream bikes is The Benelli Tre-k 899, and it's mostly because of the sound.
Gotta be the Yamaha XS 750 for me... Such a nice looking motorbike.
Woah that looks of that first one struck my eyes 👀
I had a GT-550. You had DAMN well better have it pointed in the right direction, because when it came on the pipe it was a ROCKETSHIP.
I called it, I new the xs was going to be on this list.
Haven't watched the video yet but I hope the Kawasaki 750 triple is on here. That 2 stroke sound. And it is yayyy
There is a H2 at 6:23 and it sounds fabulous.
but for me, the best souding is the inline-3 of the BMW K75
I know what you're talking about. I've got one myself. It's a great bike...
22fret i envy you to the most ! R1200R here, great sound too, but this inline-3 is a piece of history !
Yep, and it's indestructible. Mine has already done over 144.000kms, but they are easily good for 250.000 and more...
22fret o_O !!!
One of the earliest examples of a whistling triple
Kawasaki triples, the most exciting by far.
You missed some Triumph's for sure. But great video anyway.
You missed on the most important 3 Cylinder machines of all time. The British Triples from BSA and Triumph (Rocket 3 and Trident). Definitely the Best Sounding Engine for sure. Much better than all those Strokes making this list. Laverda being an Exception. Not to forget the New Triumph Triple.
I love the fact that they sound like 3 rotor rx7's 😍
Interesante sonido el de los motores de 3 cilindros. Si el sonido del tricilíndrico dos tiempos recuerda al del triple rotor de Mazda. Mi auto tiene un motor de 3 cilindros, pero no suena así de bonito. Sigue presentándonos muy buenos videos como hasta ahora. Saludos VisioRacer!
Laverda Jota. Brutal majestic sound.
where daytona 675 ?!
Great sound on Yamaha XS750 and Suzuki GT 550
A 1969 BSA Rocket 3 and Triumph Trident definitely sounds better than all of listing. Off course the Laverda is an exception.
Kawasaki number 1.
racing Triumph triple or BSA rocket in the early 70's a magnificent sound
Yes!!
Laverda, the best one!!
more bike stuff please :D
You should have put the S-series and kh series Kawasaki's in with the H1's and H2's, they're identical other then CC's
I'm guessing that the Laverda Jota was never for sale in America. Tim Healey modded the standard Laverda with louder exhausts and other bits. Made a tasty bike!
+g8ymw Just looked, the UK importer got Laverda to fit some race bits to a 3C giving 90 bhp in 1976
Gotta be the Yamaha XS 750 for me... Such a nice looking motorbike.
My list of best sounding three cylinders:
Number one.
This concludes my list.
gt 550 was my fav, i love my 2strokes 😃
Later Laverdas had 120° crankshafts. The reason for the 'flat-plane' 180° is that it's inherently stronger, because the crank doesn't have to endure torque trying to twist it out of alignment that a 120 does ( it was a pressed-up roller design which makes this even more important), the trade-off being more vibration. This is the reason that most people who raced them chose the 180.
a 3 cyclinder 4T is like a Merlin engine .. loved my Triumph triple.
Your a genius. So far out of 2,3,4,6 and 12 cylinder bikes nothing sounds anything like the batbike kwakas supercharger. That's my 1. Amazing.
Ahhh,,, the lovely sound of two stroke piston slap...
I love the two stroke.
best Channel ! :)
Thank you :)
A friend of mine had, I believe a Kaw 500 3 cyl that sounded real nice.
I always love 3 cylinders bikes over single,double or four
I never liked the sound of the original Laverda with its strange crankshaft arrangement of two pistons at 360° with the third offset at 180° to the other two. When running it sounds like an inline-4 with a fouled spark plug. I was pleased when they redid the crank to have three 120° throws. Back in the daze while living in Japan, I had an H2...I added a 3-into-one header-expansion chamber, then it sounded like a police siren.
But my favorite here is the giant Triumph Rocket-3 with its huge 2.4 litre engine and sweet sound. I love the sound of a 4-stroke inline-3 at low RPM.
The Honda V3 2-stroke is a big bang engine, firing 2 cylinders then one cylinder, so it sounds just like an inline 2-cylinder 2-stroke.
GREAT video and great subject!
love how most of these sound like my mt-09 haha
Do you, perhaps, have a video of 3 cylinder cars?
There are a number to choose from in the Japanese kei class...
The engine in my Honda Today (shared with the Honda Beat) is the E07A.
It gets my little car moving quite well.
two stroke r3 sounds great
I'd forgotten about the XS 750 a sadly underrated bike. Mvx was a surprise choice. The H2 has to be one of the most wicked sounds... it wants your blood 😂 ( they weren't that bad) and yes those MV's are LOUD. The GT series is lovely. You only had one Triumph... shoulda had a street triple with a pipe . Good video. Thanks.
