  • DISCLAIMER: The Jog pipes actually have a broader (but smoother and tamer) effect on power all throughout the RPM range with a smooth power band up higher in the RPMs. Almost on the contrary, the belly/MX pipes have a VERY aggressive effect on the power in the low and mid-RPM range with a bit up top and a MUCH more pronounced powerband compared to the jog pipes. So, if you want more of a cruiser bike that isn't as aggressive, the jog pipe may be best, but if you want a touchy bike with a ton of torque that'll feel like it'll rip off your head, the belly pipe may be a better option.

In short, BikeBerry is a COMPLETE sham!

    Great video on explaining everything one thing to mention is a shorter header actually gives you more high rpm power and a longer header gives more mid range hence why a mz65 clone has more acceleration than a nasty jack because it performs best around 4500~6500rpm while as a nasty jack is 7000~8500rpm these numbers change once the engine is ported to higher durations

  • @mkuehn5450
    @mkuehn5450 Рік тому +4

    0:44 "the size and length of the header stinger and belly is directly proportional to the size of the engine"
    The size of the header diameter is proportional to the size of the exhaust port.
    length of header and belly are dictated by dwell, or desired RPM range for the returning wave.
    Stinger has to do with bleeding off pressure. speed of sound affected by temp and pressure. higher pressure raises temp.
    go read "Two-Stroke Performance Tuning in Theory and Practice" by A. Bell. for a better break down.

      Thanks for the comment. I know what you are talking about, but for this video, I wasnt trying to go COMPLETELY in-depth, just so those who know NOTHING about exhausts and engines (much less all the slogan) can understand what exhausts are worth buying and which ones to stay away from. There is a good amount of information out there concerning the exhaust geometry, but this video was meant for those who are getting into the hobby and want to make sure they are getting a good exhaust system without going nose-deep in al the statistics, hence why I generalized on most of that stuff.

      @@a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665 appreciated. hard to see someone spending more on an expansion chamber than the entire motor. i've spent way too much time with 50cc.
      how about: an expansion chamber is not a muffler. it takes the sound wave from the opening exhaust and returns it as an echo to push intake charge back into the exhaust port. the two cones of the chamber shape this pressure wave, and the header needs to allow it to return intact before the exhaust closes.
      i liked your characterization of "two types" fat circuit pipes for stronger, lower rpm range, and thinner for higher rpm applications.

      Thanks for the comment. I may make a video going more in depth about everything and how to relate it with motorized bikes in the near future and will definitely get into the nitty-gritty. I cant see myself spending any more than $100 on an exhaust, but there are people out there that are more than willing to pay a premium in order to squeeze out that little bit of power.

  • @MikeNBikes
    @MikeNBikes Рік тому +1

    One important piece of info, is that the length of the header is correlated to the exhaust and transfer duration which is why recording the durations correctly is important. (180° - Opening degree ATDC) x 2 = Duration
    Great tutorial btw. I'm glad someone could shed light on this. Personally, I am not in favor of bolt-on pipes. The results are usually credited from having less restriction however at the end of the day, one pipe is not going to be of maximum benefit as one pipe cannot fit ALLLL the different port timing. Aside from people having cash to blow, this is why you often see people with custom pipes that also match the engine itself. Keep the positive propaganda coming my guy!

    • @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665
      @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665  Рік тому

      Yeah. This video was mainly focused toward the novices in the hobby, so I didn't want to go COMPLETELY in depth and instead generalized on a lot of things. The information I skipped/generalized may be important to experienced builders, but would really just confuse new builders (like it did when I firsts started out). I've found that many (if not most) builders prefer bolt on upgrades over anything that requires more than tightening 2 bolts (such as porting, decking, balancing crank, all cause its too much work and they dont want to LEARN how to do it), so that's why I left out mx pipes, piaggio jog pipes, etc, and stuck to the basics and related the info to some of the best pipes you can buy now that are talored specifically for motorized bikes (The amount of people that are still using their Z4/Z8C plugs furthers my argument that simpler is better when it comes to the newer builders. lol).
      In the future, I plan on revamping on a few of my information videos and going further in depth, and this is one of them.

    Good video and much needed. As someone that recently started doing research and have had the mz65 clone and have thought about upgrading, this is a good video for recommendations. The mz65 clone deffinately gives performance over the stock muffler it is also about three times as loud. The clone is certainly not the best out there but is good for testing and by far the cheapest. But if you have more money an upgrade is welcome

    • @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665
      @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665  Рік тому +1

      Yeah. I own the clone and its OK, but it REALLY helps when you use a muffler not only for reducing noise (muffler makes it only slightly louder than stock), but also give a little power boost as well. The stinger is a tad too thick, so by using a muffler, you are effectively lengthening it and decreasing its diameter, which keeps the power it has down low, but makes the exhaust more effective at higher rpms.
      Muffler I use: www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-50-150cc-Motorized-Modified-Silencer/dp/B0BFFCHDYG/ref=sr_1_4?crid=6SDRH4Z0G2FB&keywords=motorized+bike+muffler&qid=1695909767&sprefix=motorized+bike+muffle%2Caps%2C74&sr=8-4

    • @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665
      @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665  Рік тому +1

      Yes. That is a great pipe, however, because it is designed for a horizontally mounted engine, it won’t fit a motorized bike (which is vertically mounted) unless you cut and re-weld the header. Because those have a minarelli exhaust flange, it will fit a Minarelli cylinder (once you’ve re-welded the header), but, because the exhaust flanges are different, it won’t fit a chinadoll cylinder.
      However, if your are planning to use it for a chinadoll, instead of welding on a new exhaust flange, the CDH67 jog pipe will perform pretty similarly and doesn’t require any welding, but is only available for chinadolls.

    I have the Phantom 85 engine and I wanted to put a sized exhaust that I found on Amazon, but it doesn't fit in the engine cylinder Could it be that if I cut a part of the original engine exhaust and weld it on the new exhaust would it give a loss of power?

    • @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665
      @a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665  8 місяців тому

      Yeah. The Phantom 85 and the Avenger use different, larger exhaust flanges. You can definitely cut the flange off the original exhaust and weld it on the new one.
      As far as performance, make sure the header width is appropriate for the new flange. Also make sure the geometry of the pipe is correct for the larger displacement engine. You can squeeze more power out by using something like a MZ65 clone pipe, but especially for the larger engines, you definitely want something with a larger belly.

If its on too tight, I would also try heating up the nut with a torch and do the same thing to loosen. In the future, I would make sure you arent over tightening nuts and bolts, ESPECIALLY when it comes to the soft metal of the crankshaft threads.

Its total lengh is 75mm so the powerband should hit in the 7k to 8k rpm , but i would have to remove the pedals and start it by taking down hill speed or pushing the bike with my own leg ...

      I had a Minarelli scooter a while back with this same pipe and the thing was fast and the pipe worked quite well. However, if you are planning to mock it up for a motorized bike and go through all that headache, I would look at RMH's minarelli pipe (rmhperformance.com/products/minarelli-racing-pipe?variant=42275449110705), which is not only cheaper than the (genuine) Yasuni r2 pipe, but will perform IDENTICALLY, and is already mocked up for a bicycle with a slip fit header.
      In terms of overkill, you're fine. I personally wouldn't pay that much for an exhaust, but if you got the funds blowing a hole in your pocket, by all means, go for it.

Giving a huge gain at that range.its not about back pressure. It's about open exhaust at most rpms with a boost of increasing the charge in the cylinder at a specific rpm
