No need for nitrogen in tyres. Air is already 78 percent NE. No manufacturer or tyre company recommends to put nitrogen in tyre. You may have some added benefits of nitrogen but that's negligible unless you are in F1 racing.
What you said is completely right but the problem is that you wont find a single fuel station which would provide you with 100% pure nitrogen . About an year back i too used to fill nitrogen in my tyres from a local fuel station but on a particular day i went to check the tyre pressure and found out that the pressure has increased from 32psi to 36psi . I was literally shocked at that point of time as nitrogen doesnt expand with temperature. I dont know about other cities but hear in kolkata max of the fuel stations or tyre shops have the same issue . What i think is that it is useless to spend a 100 bucks unless you get 100% pure nitrogen . 😐😐😐
Hey Vikas..!! Donald here from Ahmedabad..!! I really love watching your posts on UA-cam and love your bikes too.. specially the R1. Your bike riding videos, maintaining bikes, safety measures are really very helpful. I learnt how to up-shift gears without using the clutch within 4-5 days and I'm really enjoying riding my bike.. I don't have a performance bike though. I own a Yamaha Gladiator Type SS model since 8 years... and love to maintain it... It's still close to showroom condition...!!!!! Also I watched your latest post about filling nitrogen air. I am filling nitrogen air regularly since the past year and it remains in the tyre for about 2 or 2.5 months and it even gives a good traction control. I too go on rides with friends(within 100 kms) twice or thrice in a year and after filling nitrogen air, my bike's performance has improved...I was able to hit about 112 - 113 km/h on a 125 CC bike. As your first love is the Yamaha R1...my first love is my Yamaha Gladiator 😊😊 It will be with me always and I love Yamaha. My dad used to have the Yamaha RX100 (1989 model) and I learned to ride on the same...Since then I'm a fan of Yamaha. I'm planning to buy the Yamaha FZ250 and need your suggestion about this bike...Should I buy the Yamaha FZ250?
This was very helpful video ...a big 👍 for you.... I have bought new yamaha fz25 this year...last time we met at azen kawasaki showroom in mumbai 4 months back....hope to see you again...will meet nicely next time...your videos r life savior for all kind of riders...keep educating us like this...thank you❤🤘
excellent..... thanks a lot for this info... i actually asked at the service station of KTM at different state as well.... they all told me different things, even they told me not to fill nitrogen in my New KTM , they told me to wait for like 6 months or so...... i mean , i was literally confused, now am sure and trust me on this, tomorrow morning itself i shall go and get nitrogen filled ... thanks a lot sir..... keep it up.... lots of love!!!
Watched many videos nobody told about this suspension and ride quality and increase in the pressure with air while riding at higher speeds . Thanks bro 🖐
I have few questions (this is for the 150-160 cc bikes) like the hornet 160r,fzs, unicorn and all . 1) when do we need flush the engine to remove all the dust inside. 2)what engine oil do you recommend other than the company recommended which lasts more than well over 4000kms. 3)what tyres do you recommend when the stock mrf tyres are done which have good thread design and grip as well and not get punctured easily at least because of the bad roads in Hyderabad 😓😓 (a little bit cornering while touring short or long distances like *dual purpose* especially not for the track ) 4)when do we change the airfilter for the 150-160 cc bikes (as I ride hornet160r) ****THANK YOU**** 😊
bhai I've been a victim to this fiasco aswell....i mean the regular air by itself has 70% nitrogen and the remaining is been divided among gases like a carbon dioxide and argon....so using nitrogen in your tyres is a fine thing which even i do occasionally but paying five times the price for just a minimal percentage increase in nitrogen is a fraud within itself....a strategy used by petrol stations to make a extra few pennies.... either ways a nice and informative video 🙂
Hello vikas, I have one question. How to check if the nitrogen filling station/machine is actually producing pure nitrogen ? Like, is their any kind of government certification for that machine where we can say that "so and so machine is certified and it produces pure nitrogen". How will we know if the tyre vendor/shop/air filling stations selling/filling nitrogen air is actually filling pure 100% nitrogen in my tyres ? Any suggestions are welcome. Cheers.. ride safe.. stay safe
Very informative video Vikas bhai....as this question was on my mind from long time and you helped in answering with so much of details....excellent stuff
5:18 situation with punctured Tyre filled with nitrogen and worrying about inflating it with regular available air is amazing as you said 70% oxygen is present in the air.... And also the nitrogen available at petrol stations are pure ?? So yeah no problem with nitrogen and air mixing at some unexpected situations .thanks
I always believed nitrogen is a scam for tires shops to charge you for air. Inflation is Inflation, just inflate to the manufacturers specification. I love your accent BTW.
Well the most important reason of filling nitrogen is Heat of tyres. People usually fill nitrogen in tyres when they go on longs rides where vehicle is moving continuously for whole day. It keeps tyres cool .
sir as yoy said you dont need to remove all nitrogen to fill normal air in tyre is it same when tyre has already normal air inside and to fill nitrogen we have to remove all normal air n then fill up nitrogen ??
Loved this vid brother Vikas Keep doing the good job bro... Much love Just a small query Should we fill N2 to the same psi levels as we fill regular air or is there a pressure difference we should stick to for optimum performance...?
Hi Vikas.. Must say you have a very unique style to everything you do! Keep up with that... On basis of this video, I needed to know if it's possible to fill nitrogen air on my RE Himalayan, which does NOT have a tubeless tyre and has steel spoke rims ?
Hi bro. This is Vinod. I heard that nitrogen gas would cause cracks on tire because it is very cold. So nitrogen gas is preferable used in hot temperature or when we are doing long rides. Is that true?
Moisture in air can corrode the spokes of the wheel but that is in so small lvl that practically it dont affect. I have my dad passion plus from the first lot when it was launched that bike have done more than 1lakh km and my dad always fill air in it he never filled nitrogen and even now that bike is running without any problem just changed its tyre and tube this mont for the first time
Vikas sir u r saying it is correct but if someone's bikes both wheels are filled with nitrogen and some how his bike gets puncher on a long tour ride and if there is no nitrogen available then is it ok to fill the punchered tyre with air... in short is it ok that bikes 1 wheel is having nitrogen and the other with air..?
Have you got any news about the Suzuki GSX250R? And I'm eagerly waiting for some good options in the full-faired 'sports-tourer' segment. I narrowed down to REPSOL Edition CBR250R, but I still don't have any information about it. Kindly help me choose. Budget- 2.2L (0n-road), mileage - 25 - 30 Kmpl.
Hai bro but I just wanted to conform one thing which u left out Wat I felt using nitrogen 1st i felt a drop in my milage 2nd I felt my rear tyre was often getting punctures But after I started using normal air this was fine so Wat do u feel bro about this?
Generally if we use air it become hot in any season and cause rubber too .. I mean the life of a tyre reduces .. if we use nitrogen it makes no heat or less heat inside the tyre and tyre Life also increases .. I experienced it on my 2017 d390 with new metzeler tyre it smells rubber on Tarmac.. what I’m thinking is it sensible plz explain bro
These 29 dislikes are probably the gas station who don't keep nitrogen.
No need for nitrogen in tyres. Air is already 78 percent NE. No manufacturer or tyre company recommends to put nitrogen in tyre. You may have some added benefits of nitrogen but that's negligible unless you are in F1 racing.
You answered the question that was on my mind for quiet some time now. Absolutely AWESOME!!!
The extremely helpful saga of your technical videos continue. Keep them coming. It helps a lot not only to newbies but also to professional riders.
i was in the same dilemma of topping up air along with nitrogen and now its all sorted out. thank you. your videos are very informative. keep moving
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy my other videos too and hope you subscribe.
Literally was going to ask vikas bhai and you just gave it.Love ya bro.Awesome stuff

Vikas Sir is the BEST ❤️🙏
You're a pure GEM of bikes Sir
Watched many videos nobody told about this suspension and ride quality and increase in the pressure with air while riding at higher speeds . Thanks bro 🖐
Vikas the encyclopedia of motorbikes...
i was searching for this type.of content .finally found today..suscribed
+Gaurab Pokharel thanks very much
Buddy you are a better teacher than my chemistry prof.
Thanks for the info bro. I was thinking of this for a long time ! Now I will confidently fill nitrogen in my RE himalayan !
Sir u are an engineer of bikes
Bumblebee Lover :that's true
I have few questions (this is for the 150-160 cc bikes) like the hornet 160r,fzs, unicorn and all .
1) when do we need flush the engine to remove all the dust inside.
2)what engine oil do you recommend other than the company recommended which lasts more than well over 4000kms.
3)what tyres do you recommend when the stock mrf tyres are done which have good thread design and grip as well and not get punctured easily at least because of the bad roads in Hyderabad 😓😓 (a little bit cornering while touring short or long distances like *dual purpose* especially not for the track )
4)when do we change the airfilter for the 150-160 cc bikes (as I ride hornet160r)
****THANK YOU**** 😊
Bro you are super technical. If I have any doubts regarding motorcycles I come and see your videos. Very helpful. Thanks bro.

Excellent explanation bro please make a video on puncture free sollution and wheel balancing!
Thanks Vikas..this is really helpful i think you should do more of educative videos on bikes like the the one we see on On Two wheel youtube channel
Hy vikas make a video about aftermarket abs can they be installed on non abs bikes and also are they as reliable as pre installed ones
Pls talk about it
What sir i was planning to make video on this topic and you made it never mind next time
Well the most important reason of filling nitrogen is Heat of tyres. People usually fill nitrogen in tyres when they go on longs rides where vehicle is moving continuously for whole day. It keeps tyres cool .
Superbly explained Vikas bhai!!!
Sirji please also share your knowledge about raising handlebar fir upright posture on sports bikes
Very informative man. 1 like and subscribed 👌👌
Thanks my friend
I did not know that. Thanks for the tip.
sir as yoy said you dont need to remove all nitrogen to fill normal air in tyre is it same when tyre has already normal air inside and to fill nitrogen we have to remove all normal air n then fill up nitrogen ??
sid x_0 agreed only pure nitrogen will give you that efficiency if the tyre still had any normal air left in them then filling pure nitrogen is usless
buddy u know everything about bikes 👌👌
Buddies.... Bro please make a video of anti puncture liquid also. Keep up the good work. Cheers!

Just a small query
Should we fill N2 to the same psi levels as we fill regular air or is there a pressure difference we should stick to for optimum performance...?
Nice. How this effect the mileage of the bike. I heard if u use nitrogen, then the mileage increases. Is that true?
I feel like i am in a science class. Great video though.
Can I get u as my college professor ? 😁
Bcs I can understand easily what u r saying 👍
Hi Vikas.. Must say you have a very unique style to everything you do! Keep up with that...
On basis of this video, I needed to know if it's possible to fill nitrogen air on my RE Himalayan, which does NOT have a tubeless tyre and has steel spoke rims ?

Vikas,
If i have regular air in my bike tyre and i have to fill in nitrogen, do i need to deflate my tyre first and take the regular air out totally??
Buddy, chemistry lesson for you. O molecules are smaller than rubber polymer molecules so it passes through the intermolecular space.
True. Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy my other videos too and hope you subscribe.
Very informative..
sir is it necessary to inflate the tire totally if i want to fill in nitrogen gas incase i'm a regular gas user?
How about liquid is it good or bad 4 da tyres..plz fast reply
Which one is a better option Ktm Rc 390 or Yamaha R3
It totally depends on the rider bro. Both are very good. Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy my other videos too and hope you subscribe.
