The watch is cool but not worth $2,300 to me.
Uhh? Watch give away... Sheesh? Yammie... Sheesh? Already...! 🤣 kick as'z Watch... but where's my R9 Yam? Oh... where can it be?
best mod i did is loose 100 lbs. bike feels so much better now
Bravo good sir! 🎉
🤘
That's the life mod that I need lol my poor bike has to move the weight of two people with just me riding it. Haha 😆
This needs to happen for me as well. 380 lbs and even though my Z H2 is 227hp I need to lose about 160 lbs. :-(
@Supercharged1976 yep I was 350 now 250. Made my bike feel better
Yammie: talking about how 17 more hp is no big deal
Me: on my 23 hp Royal Enfield
salads n re bikes are cheaper than carbon fiber
@@kumarchandravir6248 the salads i eat are not healthy
A decent lawn mower has more HP.
Ima take the fact this came right after my dad agreed to get me a motorcycle as a sign of good luck
Be safe and enjoy bro! ✌️
Ride safe homie. Always always always be aware of every car within eyesight
Ride defensively.
Cars can't see you and trucks don't care.

@@davidcoleman6211 couldn’t have said it better myself
@@davidcoleman6211 thx dude I’ll make sure to stay safe
For those of us who are carbureted, once the exhaust/intake flows freely, larger jets are the analog equivalent to a tune
I lost 70 lbs over the off season, the noticeable difference is crazy especially on a 390 Duke.
best kinda weight reduction
Good on ya!
According to him I need to lose 40 lbs lol. I’m not fat though just I spend too much time in the gym. I have hard time finding motorcycle jackets that fit cause my arms too big.. I’m 240 lbs at 5’11. Just lots of muscle…

‘’Did it work? Na, it still blew up.” Said perfectly. Lol!
Spot on with the list Yammie, skills make someone far quicker than anything else. I rode a Duke 200 for a couple of years with a guy who had a Duke 390, after upgrading from a slower bike I am now far more capable after working out how to brake and corner well to keep up with a bike with nearly double the power.
Always a better bet to practice on a smaller machine while you save for bigger one, rather than blow money on loud exhausts that piss everyone off!
ok grandpa
@@LK-dn2ms Love you Billy
I hate loud exhaust, but ECU tuning is divine. A lot of factory bikes are nerfed on the ECU side. Adjust it, and you ride wild. Kept the factory pipe, but more horses under my seat.
bro literal seconds, wtf. i've never been this early. I literally just replace my exhaust and I'm about to send my ecu to get tuned, this couldn't have come at a better time
ECU off to who??
Protogen
It’s a damn good thing that my Moto Guzzi V100S Mandello is good right from the factory because, I like having a warranty.
The designers did a great job designing this motorcycle for the way that I ride.
I still enjoyed the video.
This pops up right when I get home from dropping off my bike at the speed shop for a dyno tune. Stoked to see the results
Solid advice. Might you be inclined to do a segment on the best aftermarket brakes and/or braking systems? Quick acceleration and nimble handling are grand fun, but braking, much less glamorous though it is, can save your life.
Its simple, steel braided lines and oem pads.
227 hp Z H2 here. Upgraded braided steel lines, SBS racing brake pads, Full Brocks Pentacarbon, Sprint P08 filter, Moore Mafia ECU flash, Vortex sprockets (2 down in the rear, 1 up in the front) still powers the front up from 3rd to 4th gear when giving it the beans and quick shifting. Hyperpro progressive steering damper for less pants changes when coming down slightly crooked from said 130+ mph power wheelies. LOL!
@@Uncle_FOE_504 It's fantastic. No issues at all so far.
The zh2 doesn't come with steel braided lines? Really? That's surprising, given what a beast it is and what it costs
@@Wintersdark The new 24' SE might have them now. Mine is a 21' standard not SE
Where's the NSFW warning for those moobs?
I had the first gen FZ-09 BACK IN 2014 and the front springs were made for someone around 160 lbs I think. I'm 190 lbs or so and i got stiffer front springs and it made a massive difference in dive under braking and in corners. I also had the rear shock tuned for my weight.
Love your work Yammie!!!
I like watches too. My current favorite is a vintage (1961) Omega Sea Master .
I have the 2023 MT-10. Leo Vince exhaust, flashed an dyno. Went from 135 at the wheel to 165 to the wheel. Bike gains were huge.
1)What about updating breaking system? (Break caliper, break master cylinder, steel braided lines etc)
2)Better air filter
3)Iridium spark plugs
Damn yam how many times have you used that burnout clip, I Mena it's awesome but I've seen it so much 💀
The best mod you can do is add a turbo to your hayabusa the only other mod you will need is a second turbo after that
Had my stock 1000sx flashed and it made a big difference.
Wasn't sure if everything was alright at the end until the yammie yell
I ride a klx300 supermoto, dyno'd at 18whp bone stock, custom exhaust, drop in filter and snorkel delete made 28whp. AFR was perfect so I left that alone. Stock sprocket I could finally pull the front wheel up in 2nd. I weigh in at 230lbs and I maxed out my rear spring (I plan to buy a new bike later this year) I can now clutch up in 3rd
Speaking of exhaust, I got a sportster s 1250s and I got a TBR exhaust, 14 lbs difference and it’s considered a slip on
Maybe not as common for sport bike people since they’re not as popular as Harley, but I can’t believe you left off hotter cams. Any big twin with bigger cams makes an enormous difference!
I mostly watch theses videos for the outros. Never change.
That watch is really cool. It kind of reminds me of the pulp fiction watch idk why lol
Harley riders always looking to get more power out of their V Twins but still refuse to wave back at sports riders
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Handling upgrades are far more important than more power when you reach a certain lvl of power .
I’ve always noticed your Speedy! I had a 36mm DJ and waited 8 months for it. I sold it last year for two motorcycles and started following you 😎
Opened UA-cam and u uploaded so here we are
Cheeseburgers have salads on them
A good way to increase power would be to reduce the compression space (taller piston/triangular piston heads) and to swap the stock cams to sharper ones, allowing mechanically more air in to the cylinder. With an ECU Tuning (which is needed to keep a good air-fuel-ratio) it would radically increase the hp without having the risk of driving with a turbo
I'm going to Tune/Flash/Map/Remap (whatever) the ECU of my Gen 3 Busa & Trident 660 -- both have Full Titanium AKRA + BMC Air Filter
I could also install Dynojet PC6
& might replace Lead-Acid Batteries with Lithium-ion ... & stock Spark Plugs with Iridium ones.
not sure of Sprocket change for Torque/Power gains, if I should do that...!
That outro has woken me up from too many naps
Best outro
I just got my ecu back from being flashed. Cant wait to see how the bike performs. Great timing yams!
Are you going to review the Aprilia RS 457 by any chance?
I'm gonna say that lighter rims will be a big improvement too!!
Old HDs respond well to the S&S Stage 2 Stroker mods.
A advanced course once taught me that many people are still 1st year riders years later because they don't improve themselves and do the same stuff year over year
"You can have salad because it is cheaper than carbon fiber". Damn who wrote that line? Amazing.
I have a small bike. When I was still 65 KG, it kept on throwing me up whenever I hit a bump.
Now that I'm 75 KG worth of muscle, the bike no longer throws me up that much whenever I hit a bump. 😂
Adding/losing weight does wonders if we think about it. 😁
Well eventually I planned to get some slip ons for my Royal Enfield Interceptor 650. But what about the aftermarket air filter? Would it be worth it?
Hey Yammie 🙋 did you ECU Flash your Daytona and was it worth it ? Because i got a Daytona myself, thanks ☺️
Hey yammie im torn between a (2024 models) R3, ninja 500, mt-03/07 😅 whats the best bike you would suggest for a beginner that will not need to be swapped out. I love speed and power
If i compare my r1 vs my ducati 1098 the weight difference feels like it impacts te riding the most. R1 is around 205kg. And my ducati is about 168kg. Almost. 40kg difference. Its so light in the corners.
would changing rear sprocket be a good upgrade?
And suspension on the MT09 is the same as the old big Buells - easy to tune - I was taught - so the first thing I did was match the tires - the front to the rear - lol - test ride - raised the forks 14mm in the trees and then tuned from there. Stiff, but still - for an old guy - not far from the edge at all at the tire - and steady as an axe - lol - bit like a Buell. Ha!
I test rode a MT09 SP and loved the ride and handling. The rear is too stiff on my 2013 Z1000 it needs a better shock but it looks like Ohlins discontinued the one they made for it.
I only use %20 of my R1s power. My only mod is upright handle bars.
*if you swap suspension on an older dirtbike for modern top of the line components it’ll make a huge difference immediately
Currently in my bulk and i will not go in cut anytime soon my 100hp CBR650R needs to just survive with it lol
Dynojet powervision remote flash/tune plus rhe ability to personally tune. It's great on the MT09 I won here. Runs cooler, faster, and smoother.
question....can ECU be flashed without change exchausts? Cause in my countryu I have bike inspection every year
ECU flash is great, but I have a 2004 motorcycle and I can't find a place to tune it.
My recommendation: if you want more power, look for a more powerful bike unless you plan on keeping your bike forever. Your wallet will thank you in the end when you decide you want to finally upgrade from your r3
this may be a stupid question but is it worth doing any of those mods on 125cc bike?
Im curious why you didn’t took the opportunity to add steel break lines to the list. Yeah these days a lot of bikes come with them, at least in the front. It’s the only mod I did on every single bike I’ve ever owned.
Chinesium... Dead poppa Yams!
The BOYS!!!!
I'm really not a fan of removing catalytic convertors. If I ride behind bikes without them I get very nauseated. It's clear a lot of not so good fumes and particles are now comming out of the engine while before most of it was nicely broken down. So do other road users and nature a favor and just leave it on. And only replace the aft dampener if you want slightly more hp and a lot more noise.
i lost 20Kg, added an aftermarket pipe, fitted new chain, sprocket and very good tires. can't you please tell me why my CT-100 still won't pull "dank nooners"?
Before my bike was stolen i had a nice $1000 exhaust from headers to tailpipe and they cut off the exhaust for a $20 fake carbon slip on.. sounds and performs so much worse plus the thieves got away Scott free -.-
So, I wonder, is this only for new bikes (I see some technology that may only work with new bikes?) or does all of this work on my 1992 Kawasaki zxr 400? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I’m a true noob.
unsprung weight are: wheels and fixed -to -wheels rods pulling suspension upwards. i mean lower fork tubes and swingarm. i would even consider springs themselves and few grams of oil in it as an unsprung mass. exhaust is absolutely not an unsprung weight. guess why.
I just stepped down from a 150hp Aprilia to a 120hp Yamaha, I absolutely don't want to go faster.
Just buy a motorcycle with more power than you can handle. Then, you do not need to do any costly modifications. He put a muffler on a 400 Ninja, and now everyone gets to hear the lawnmower sound that the stock muffler hid. The power gain is nil. For that, you need to change the air filter and tune the fuel curve for an hp or two. Not worth it imo, due to the cost, and technically illegal to tune or remove the factory exhaust.
This is the best advice. I started riding last week and I’m picking up my zh2 tomorrow. I’m saving so much money on learning on all of those beginner bikes! Still confused on which one is the front brake though…
@justinhaley1346 Lol. Great, you won't be needing to screw up your zh2 with stupid mods.
I’ve lost 47lbs just so I can go faster on a motorcycle that I’m about to buy 😂 going to try to lose 30-40lbs more
What gear does the guy at 0.29 have
Let's go Denmark 🤘
"Raise RPMs in idle" with a flash.. 2000s Suzuki's had a fucking screw reaching to the side oh the frame that you could turn to raise the RPMs
i lost 118lbs (and counting) bike def went faster. checks out
Flash on my '23 mt10sp earned me 15-20hp from the bottom to the top of the rev range. All the way across.
With the stock exhaust and intake.
More importantly, changes to the electronic throttle settings made the bike feel much less notchy - stock, there are all sorts of weird throttle limits, like never giving you past like 35ish percent throttle below 6000rpm, no matter what you do with your wrist.
Here I am on a stock ninja 500 5’11 240lbs and he starts talking about needing a different spring 💀. I’m not fat though.. I’m just a gym bro and don’t know when to stop going to the gym I’m sorry I’m too big!!! 😢
🎉
Daddy yammie, when will you oil up for us loyal subscribers? 🤭
i really do not desire to go any faster :P but i do desire getting up to speed more quickly :P
Top speed is a bear to increase, thanks in no small part to its cubic relationship to horsepower. 2x speed means 8x power
-me with 220 hp fireblade-
I think I'm good..... for now
No farkles
😮💨 hitting us w nothing but facts.. time for a salad I guess
I'm 6 ' ft tall 205lbs I swear I'm not fat ;-) I spend a lot of time in the gym working out for the most part I feel like I'm in great shape for being 53 years old Most people think I'm in my 30s guess you can say I'm blessed with good looks Get from my Mama ;)

Power gain accessories and motorcycle weight reduction is wasted on the typical rider I see out on the road. A 150 horsepower bike weighing around 400 pounds ridden by 250 pound rider capable of maybe betting the most out a 27 horsepower Royal Enfield is throwing money out the window better used at the McDonald's window.
They can't steal your catalytic converter if you take off yourself..
hahahhaa still blew up (my condolences)
An ECU tune. Thats all any new bike needs. The majority of other so called "performance parts" are going to accomplish very little before the ECU is tuned to take advantage of them. Combined properly, most modern bikes need very few mods to make them perform adequately for 90% percent of the average riders demands. Beyond that is just chest thumping. I would estimate 75% percent or better of aftermarket "performance" parts, do absolutely nothing to make the bike faster.
Louder, uglier, more prone to crumbling into pieces when it falls over? Absolutely! Spend that money squids!
Counterpoint: I actually do not want to go faster, I do not want to make more noise (I'd actually buy a quieter exhaust for my bikes if anyone made one), and I do not want to increase my pollution level. I just like to ride. Which, of course, means this video is not for me so why am I watching? Just can't get enough Yammie I guess :)
Messing with the engine, including the ECU, is a great way to reduce the life of your motorcycle. I have a Honda and whatever the ECU flashers tell you, they don't know better than Honda. Pass.
Suddenly the R6 isn’t unbearable after losing 50 lbs 😂 rider mods>
Screw salads get a liter bike.
You want to go faster, improve your riding skills, instead of just making more noise.
99% OF MOD"S ARE A WAST OF $$$$$$$$$ FOR NOTHING !!!!!!! TOSS IT IN THE TRASH !!!
save your $$$ & buy a faster bike stop f***ing up a bike stop wasting $$$ on A/m parts & don't forget the law will try to get you for speeding jail sucks and lot's of $ for what? JUST LEAVE YOUR BIKE STOCK IT WAS MADE WITH $$$$$$$$ STOCK IS BETTER THEN YOU KNOW & a real mc rider will not buy your crap & keep stock parts
I can’t though. I want a zx4rr because the horsepower is shit below 10k rpm and I can learn on that. Then once I’m competent I’ll flash her to 70+ hp and get what I can out of it before wishing I had a 636cc
