Something big is brewing...
A new bike launching on Saturday.
Can you guess what it will be?
If it's for the next giveaway, my guess would be a s1000rr or the m1000rr
That poor schmuck(male penguin) also stands in 1 place w/ an egg balanced on his feet for long periods of time
while she swims the oceans eating..... such is the life of a MAN, my brother >> Ride on
A Honda Grom? (lol)
Giveaway bike or new personal bike?
CB 750 Hornet
I put a red Mario mushroom on my bike for extra boost. Most important mod yet. Have not lost to a soccer mom yet.
I hope this is true. Ud be even faster if u painted the whole bike like a red mario mushroom lol
@@sabrebaxley3977 this is very true. I’ll do it right away. Thanks for the suggestion.
Might also want to grab a star if you can. It'll help with survivability AND speed.
I put the Super Mario Invincible Star (License Plate Frame) on mine ✨ I hope I don't have to put it to the test \m/
Imagine what Gold Stars could do! ⭐️ 😄
A tail tidy is actually a mod I regret. Don't get me wrong the bike looks a LOT better compared to stock fender. BUT, now my back gets soaked with splash from my rear wheel due to a wet road.
Yeah, I live in a rainy area and having no splash guard sucks.
I put mine back on. I got tired of it.
100%
why don't more bike, aside from cruisers etc, come with the rear mud guard. I have always thought that those looked so much better than the long ass tail hanging off the bike.
would a rear tyre hugger (wheelguard) solve that?
Also... keep any and all parts you remove from the bike in the name of upgrades. Keep them all in a box stuffed in some corner somewhere. They are not kept for you. They are kept for the next owner, and they will thank you.
Nice 🤔
Corbin seat, V-Stream tall windshield and engine guards on my FJR1300 and premium tires as needed. Cruise control, heated grips and electronic suspension all standard. Good for long days on the road in all weather conditions except snow. Bike is stored for the winter here in Northern Ontario Canada.
Got myself a nice Mustang seat for my Rebel. Before it only took and hour or two to become unbearable. Now a four hour ride is nice and comfortable.
I modded my garage door opener right into my control cluster and tucked it under the fairing 👌🏻
A priceless mod for me lol
"And make sure to buy a nice exhaust from reputable manufacturers and not some eBay fart can" - Proceeds to show a fart can that I bought from aliexpress
My $100 eBay akrapovic was a great deal 👍
All i took from this is we need more turbo 'busa content!
Tail tidy, crash protection, and bar end mirrors.
That’s it.
Have a great day, Squids!!
Squids don't need mirrors
I fold in my mirrors, I can squeeze between cars a lot better like this
@@deedle6073 I have bar end mirrors but they are really just for looks and so I don’t get ticketed.
Ok I laughed out loud at the sleeping bike
He had me spitting Pepsi at eBay fart can. My computer screen did not find it as amusing.
This was pretty much all the mods I've done to my 2022 mt07 that learned from the mt07 owners Facebook group🔥awesome video Yammie🔥
I got a backrest for my INT 650 and it's been one of the single best mods I've ever done on a motorcycle and it makes it perfect for daily driving with my wife (it also has a rack so it can do grocery duty).
Very cool, thanks Papa Yam!
Great video hopefully some of the newer riders get it. The more comfortable you are the more you want to ride and more user friendly your bike is
Thanks Yammie, I took your advice and swapped my Ninja 300 throttle tube for a yamaha R6r Throttle tube. Now pinning the throttle for max acceleration is easy.
In this video you omitted mentioning tank grips. You done it in other videos. Apart from that a good one.
Uammie noob!! I lost your videos I used to be really into bikes as a kid grew up life kinda happened and yet I still kept that dream I'm glad to still have these videos to go back to 🔥🔥🔥
I promise 2024 is the year
yeah, always change your blinker fluid so your blinkers wont get stuck on "on" position. that's probably one thing adds value to your bike!
I run Metzeler Roadtec 01 tires. Some of the best I've ever had.
Sooo....
Can we get a "best tire for..." video???
What do YOU think are the best tires for each style of riding?
Plz!
That fucking outro caught me off guard 😂
Hell yeah an Oldsmobile in the wild
Bought my first motorcycle this past weekend, CBR650F. Guess you just talked me into getting frame sliders and I didn't even know case savers were a thing. Might put new tires on it since I don't know how old the ones that are on it are. Definitely getting a touring windscreen on it.
Yeah definitely get frame sliders, trust me you will use them. And get a quad lock phone mount. You pay for them but they are amazing my motorcycle has one and I love it. Great if you don’t know where you are then you pretty much have a GPS in front of you on your phone
Cruiser dad - heated grips, check. Mustang seat, check. Slip-on exhaust, check. Highway bars, check.
Best mods acc to me (for anyone with a daily) :
1. Any quality riding gear (helmet>jacket>boots>gloves and pants)
2. Any quality protection for your bike as mentioned above.
3. Storage (ik it looks ridiculous but I assure you its a comfort well worth)
4. Everything else that makes you happy (but not the one that impede functionality from factory ... Looking at you tinted squids)
@5:51... I definitely like the idea of shorter throttle throw / wrist turn when going for yeet! That said there is another problem this could create. Jerky off on throttle response. Something riders can have difficulty with is smooth off to on throttle transitions. For example when throttling out of a corner after hitting that apex. Some bikes have very twitchy initial throttle even with stock throttle tubes. I've had two bikes in the past with that problem. It was a deciding factor in me getting rid of that bike. The problem with a longer throw throttle tube is this problem is amplified. What would be awesome to see is a longer throw tube with a progressive design. BMW did something like that with their throttle cable operated cars a while back. Would have been nice to see this tried on motorcycles as well. For those who are curious those two motorcycle models were the 1998 Suzuki TL1000S and 2007 Honda ST1300.
The steel braided brake lines are not just for Squiding around. I have two Suzuki Intruder VL1500's. One has braided lines, the other one has the originals. The difference is HUGE. I dare to go a lot faster on the one with braided lines. just saying... Wind protection are probably awesome for someone at normal hight. I'm 6'8" and I hate all windscreeen because when they keep other riders free from wind, they always hit me in the middle of the helmet and it's aweful. Tires - YES, as good as you possibly can get!
Good tips. Penguin facts at the end goin' hella cute! Good vid.
Sport Squids you'll need:
Crash Protection, Tail Tidy, Tank
Bag, Bar-end Mirrors, Good Tires.
Welcome.
Panigale V2 owners beware: the R&G frame sliders don't work on this bike. The clip-ons, mirrors and shifter or rear brake lever will take one for the team before the sliders in a zero MPH drop. Don't ask how I know.
Moreover, they're a big install. However, they look good and may help in a real slide. But then, That's what insurance is for.
Looking for advice! I’m buying my second motorcycle after starting in a vitpilen 401 and found a 2003 Daytona 600 that looks to be in good shape and is relatively affordable. Only thing is I don’t know much about them. What should I look out for? I’m going to see it next week.
Thanks!
I definitely have that dorky seat cover on my CBR600RR! 😂
I’m jealous, here in Spain many of the mods?.ie:- exhaust, with or without headers. Tail tidy. In fact just about anything that’s not homologated will incur the wrath of a lTV inspection. MOT in UK…sure you can remove the items when the inspection is due but it’s a Pain in the Arse just the same
Careful with extended swingarms, if someone actually does it. The manufacturer's engineers calculate loads in the rear suspension linkage bearings and pick appropriate bearings for the load. If you extend your swingarm, you increase the load on the bearings and will wear them out in no time if you go over their rated capacity.
Thankyou YammieNoob!
Yammie -I turn 50 this April. Dont want a fasr bike but also like tne V-strom! I trust you..what are your recommendations?
Yammie def sounds a little more calm in this one haha
wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
HENTAI WRAPS?
RCS19 on the sled? I though it was a 15. Im looking to change the master cylinder on my sled, will the 15 be good enough?
I'm researching for mid-range (600cc to 900cc) naked bikes that I will also use for touring in summer (around 4 to 5 hours tours).
I am considering the trident 660 as I love its rounded classic looks (the competition has that "transformers" looks that I cannot digest), but is it good for touring? Also the Rebel 1100 (I know, not a naked but apparently a good commuter bike) but I am conscious about its performance for the price.
What would be the best naked-ish bike for touring?
Thanks guys.
I have a scrambler icon ,can you send a link for the brake upgrade ?
Only mod I made to my bike (and previous) are crash bars.
In my early bikes I would put effort in seeking power and noise. Now... meh. At 25 years old I am now an old man with my sport tourer.
Gloves designed for riding in the rain keep my hands warm down into the upper 40's and are usable at temps as high as 70 as long as the sun isn't shining.
my exhaust is my favorite mod
if God meant us to have heated grips, he wouldn't have given us cylinder heads.
Mr. Ed., erroneous, Mr. Noob :
Tks., much appreciative.
This is so funny. I removed the tiny windscreen of my 02 Ducati monster 750SIe. Bike looks so much better with out it.
Little on the nose right fter spites most recent upload
Sometimes, adding a windshield or fairing doesn't keep the wind off of you. It just jets the air right into your helmet and makes it loud even with earplugs. Also, avoid sport helmets unless you're leaned in the crotch rocket crouch. The cut of the helmet will let a lot of air in under the chin. Get a sport touring lid if you ride in a more relaxed posture. Learn from my mistakes.
What video can I watch that shows more info on the bike at 8:49?
was that an intentional reference to breakmaster cylinder?
Hey, Yam... PADDOCK is pronounced like PADDUCK. Just saying. Love the channel!
i love when i see used bikes at sticker price "i put 5k in mods on it."
Most important mod is a steering damper. I think it even comes before crash protection.
What if your buffeting is due to your girth not length?
Thanks for the tips I'm getting ready to buy a new Yamaha R7 soon.
Not a critique. I am curious why you would choose that over a street triple.
@lazysmurf420 because it's one of the first bikes I've looked into, I've only ever rode Dirt bikes / ATV, I'm new to the street bike world.
@@Christopher-cr7pw sounds good! The r7 is definitely a pretty little beast
@@Christopher-cr7pw I am in the market for a middleweight naked and I am torn between the street triple and the new 790 duke. I have 6 figures in mileage on a bike so they are a little less scary. I dont know if you are in CA, but the R7 looks like it will be a hell of a lane splitter.
Love the R7
Hey biking community, I’m new to this but if I’m 6’0 240lbs is a Yamaha R3 for me? It’s what I’ve been eyeing but I’d like to get another opinion! Thanks
At that weight I would go for MT 07 or R7. Not to mention you’ll probably quickly tire of the R3 and want to upgrade after the first year.
600-750cc for your weight
heated grips is the best mod money can buy
sometimes those penguins steal rocks from their neighbours
No indicators?
Crash bars, tail tidy, steel braoded lines and we're out! 👍🏽
Having the feel of wind hitting you is what riding a bike is all about. A windshield is like wearing a condom.
I put an eBay “fart can” on and it’s bloody awesome: don’t know why you’d not recommend it!?
Why aren't frame sliders and engine cover standard in the 1st place 🤔
Can someone explain to me what the loose tubes at 1:10 are because I have the same on my bike
Probably battery water & radiator overflow drain lines
I thought there will be suspension on the list... 🤔
2:50 can’t forget you’re gonna recoup your investment with a longer life aswell
You couldn't pay me to put any of that stuff on except maybe some frame sliders;
TURBO
@yammie your chapter markings are off.
A lot of people dont use frame sliders because they can make a bad situation much much worse
such as?
Am I the only one that doesn’t like tail tidy kits? I prefer stock look in most all cases.
Chapters are off for Seat/Exhaust
That fact was cute.
just yell "keep watching yammie noob" into a really long pipe
Pay attention to the thumbnail boys. And get the GB's do not get the cheap knockoffs
You forgot one, quick shifter
2024 CBR600RR or CBR1000RR SC59 I can’t decide 🥲 I ride since 5years
500cc is plenty. Especially if you haven't ridden in 5 years.
Which country is this
'Merica
Papa Yamm showing CFD simulations 👏👏👏
security, drive like if you are invisible to others...
MOST riders dump their motorcycles manufacturers BIG, BULKY stock Tail sections and Install clean, sleek TAIL TIDY...!!!!
WHY Bike companies don't make motorcycles inbuilt " Tail - tidy " ... ????
🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
When looking at used bikes I immediately pass on everything with an extended swing arm since I already know a dumbass owned it.
Your obsession with hating underglow is mad weird bro. Yeah pulsating, breathing, or strobe effects are obnoxious and should be illegal everywhere, but a solid white or light blue to let 4wheelers know you’re there at night is purely a net positive.
Of course, I’ve also never been sent flying thru the air because I was in the wrong lane on a blind corner, so I can see how we might think differently 😂
Panniers on a t7 lol
slip ons suck on a euro 5 exhausts...
Psychologists need a new term (OCD, ACD, ADD, ETC) for people who love load pipes!
Sleepy :)
Wait, people sell a motorcycle they have to buy another one? Why not just keep buying more bikes?
It's as if people hate their hobby 🥺
first hi yammy
Swing arm spools, nah get a centre stand and roadside repair and maintenance is easy.
Crash pods or whatever you wanna call em, nah just don't ride like a jackass and you won't crash.
That's my 5 cents, hate me, I don't care!
Bro gave away a R1M and then a PC, seems out of place… yam going backwards?
Be careful with tail tidy, it is illegal to install in many countries (all of EU for example). Stupid laws :(
It's practically illegal everywhere, in all countries. That is: the tail tidy itself is not illegal anywhere. However, there are certain homologation requirements regarding rear light, number plate and indicators' angles of visibility as well as the incidence angle of the plate light to the license plate. I've never seen a tail tidy that is able to meet all of these criteria. (After all, if you design one to meet all criteria you are basically back to the original setup.) However, some countries don't (at least in practice) enforce these regulation on anyone else except the OEM.
Source: I'm a motorcycle design engineer with some experience with these requirements.
Tu;rbo Busa @1:53
I won't buy a bike with a tail tidy. They look like crap and are illegal if they don't have a light that illuminates the license plate.
First comment! Love you Yam
Someone give me bike 🥲
"Heated grips are self-explanatory." Proceeds to explain them 🙄
If you really wanna hear your exaust just rip one off a race bike slap it on your street bike after it being straight piped now your talking loud hear me comin from miles away screaming
