  • You live in Taiwan??

  • The thing about needing wind is incorrect. Thats what the cooling system is for. Even air cooled bikes have a cover and fins to make the air move and keep them cool.

  • @srtrcr ? A liquid cooled engine is cooled by the wind.. So yeah, it does need wind.

  • @OneShotKill3r The circulating coolant moderates heat throughout the engine. Often there are electric fans that spin up once the engine is up to temperature to keep the radiator and coolant at safe temperatures.

  • do you not have traffic cops there or something???

  • Im 13 and when im older i want a bike but my dad does'nt want me to have one. anyway how long does it take to get your full bike licence.

  • @GarytwiggisGOD I'm 18 and I've collected a fair amount of money over the past 5 years. I'll get my license in about 1.5 month (in my country) and going to buy myself a 250 even if my parents are against it. Because other people can't tell you what to do with your money.

  • @GarytwiggisGOD no point thinking about it now as your 13 and in 4 years time when you can get a fill bike licence the laws may change so wait until your a little older man...

  • @MrMinevlog It might even be changing for you... there thinking of instead of the restriction on bhp they are trying to make it so you go up in cc at 2 year intervals ... so to get a 1000cc it could take 6 years @garytwiggisGOD

  • @daimyoD You will hear it, when you star the engine, especially the winder, its make a lot of sound, after 1 or 1,5 min, the sound disapear, ( its like it doesn't work ). I hope i helped.

  • When I start it should it be in neutral?

  • @iWork4DaSystem lmao...yes...i hope ur joking.....

  • I actually saw only 3 video's of you and im only 16 and i want to buy a moped dont know how the call it but if i buy one i also wanna have 1 with shift so this is for me already an lesson and i gonna subscribe way more time's thx !

  • @33rdSniper It's called a manual transmission. Buy a scooter with an automatic (one that shifts for you) because a manual scooter would just be annoying to ride.

  • Best way to warm up a motorcycle engine is to do this set of steps. Start your bike and just let it idle. While this is going on, check your lights, brakes, etc...... make sure everything is working properly. Then, begin putting on your riding gear, coat, helmet, gloves. By this point, the bike is warmed enough to ride. Enjoy!

  • Hey, this is very useful. You're in Taiwan, right? I used to live in Taipei. Had a much love little Sanyang motorcycle.

  • My motorbike's engine keeps on going off if I don't give it revs when I warm it up, so what do I do?

  • @ossameidireza Adjust your carb or idle. Something is wrong.

  • @13mordeth 13mordeth i have a 50cc scooter and i live in the uk it is a speed fight 3 and its done just over 500 miles i bort it brandnew. without derestricting it whitch well void my warrenty as im only 16 how can i make it go faster baring in mind i have done NO custom editing on it! thanks

  • @MrMinevlog haha I live in Sweden and here we can ride 125cc motorcycles at 16 years old age (I have a 125cc, Im 16). But anyway, you cant make it go faster without removing the restrictions.

  • @ossameidireza check your idle jet, clean your carb.

  • @ossameidireza Or check/check the spark plug

  • @ossameidireza look at any manual/google your bikes model and look at the carborator layout. On a carborator you will have a pilot or airscrew which controls the gas or air in the mixture. If your bike has one carb then find the screw and turn it out half a turn and try to turn it over. Keep repeating this untill your bike runs fine. If you have 2 carbs or more i would highly recommend taking your bike to a dealer and have them adjust and sync the carbs which is a pretty quick job.

  • Crap, Ive been starting my 2007 Honda CG 125 with full choke (and even little revs at times) since i got it (1 month ago).. Id let it warm up for a minute or 2 and then as soon as i exit my street id full throttle it... Thanks M13, now I know how to NOT fuck up my bike every day!

  • i like this video my Kawasaki Z750 has a temp gauge and i let it get to 60 degrees plus but event at 70 sometimes it makes a fucking awful metal grinding noise when i move off? can't be good.

  • do one on for a ninja 250! thats the most common!

  • why did you sell your CBR?

  • It's a mercedes so he's aloud to be an asshole lol

  • ninja 250r has a carburetor .. is that a big deal? I'm planning on getting one

  • @IntenseSoldier

    It's not neccessarily a big deal. It just adds a little bit of work on your part, because you have to manually adjust the RPMs on startup through the choke. Carbs also have slightly less throttle response and gas mileage, but again it's not a huge problem at all. The throttle response is actually quite good if you're a beginner. Carbs also take a bit longer to warm up.

  • @MoAoX thanks dude that was very useful

  • peoplei know ride 1100, as a begainer should i started off with a 750

  • 3:10 "Who is he talking to?"

  • Is warming up necessary for scooters?

  • @oi565 yes

  • @Jerrytheycallme How can I warm up a scooter?

  • @oi565 put it in the microwave

  • @nils001 Where can I get a microwave that is big enough?

  • @oi565 no idea... but about warming up a scooter... i don't think there is a specific way, if its a modern one, just start and drive... don't full throttle is the first few miles...

  • @oi565 just leave it and let it idle for a few minutes before your ride it

  • 3:07 3's up :/

  • All the damage done to my bike in the first 5minutes.

    Riding the bike with the choke up is a bad idea, I always thought that was the point of it, as mine dies if I leave it to warm up.

    CBR125.

  • guestimating? are you making up words? 2:52

  • Just curious where are you from? Your accent is remarkably sharp and i was suprised to find you in an Eastern country.

  • @11202 He's Canadian =D

  • @SlickRickStyle Yea I watched through some more of his videos. Don't agree with all of the opinionated stuff, but thats what it is opinions.

    Thanks for the response though mate!

  • Do people ever think your crazy talking to yourself on your motorcycle? lol Very helpful video

  • my butthole is on fire

  • Comment removed

  • Dude wtf is up with those drivers.... Im getting road rage just watching them

  • love how the people are looking at where he is pointing,thank you for making these videos very informative and helpful

  • my XR isnt feul injected..so the rpms go the other way and actually pick up once shes warm :D

  • thanks for posting these videos, im really interested in bikes and since ive never riden one before ive always been curious and you explain everything really well :)

  • you live in a "warm" country hence i doubt you know this.. but if you look at the color of the exhaust smoke coming out, you will notice that it changes from grey to transparent as it passes about 55C.. not to sure about the number but the effect though :-)

  • You live in japan or something?

    COOL man, seems like a peaceful place

    I JUST! got home from buying my new bike a 125cc yamaha ybr (125 is max i can have atm in the uk)

    i get worried about shifting down because i dont want to shift into neutral and blow the engine or mess it up.

    then i was thinking if i shift down hard enough it should go into neutral right?

    PLEASE REPLY

    thanks

    josh.

  • @G00g284 what you tryna say here bud? not being sarcastic trying to help. neutral is above first but below second as your shifting. the bike will rarely go into neutral while riding.

  • @patrix404 yeah dont worry lol, i didnt even have my bike yet when i sent that message, so easy to use gears now, what meant was that when i shift up from 1st i wud hit neautral because if you dont hit it hard enough it will go into neutral.

    Got it all sorted now though so thanks

  • if your bike has a choke...buy a new one.

  • where is this vid shot? i think its tiawan

  • how big is the bike you are riding in this video? (cc's)

  • @ccfortson i'm pretty sure it's a 650r

  • @ccfortson 650 :)

  • i think it's funny that he talks with his hands

  • So many Motorcycles ._.

  • @coloricanking I think he uses his mouth :-)

  • @coloricanking you cant see his mouth can you? How else does he express himself over then his voice it's self.

  • 你在台灣:)

    

  • are you somewhere in Asia?

  • @dawbi he's in Taiwan. I watch ALLLL of his videos, it's really cool to watch. I'm just getting into motorcycles and came here for how to tips before i take my MSF course, and he is really good at teaching, and then his other random rides are cool too where you get first person view of it and he talks and stuff

  • @devonnelson13 thanks man, i like the one where he raves wearing a ski mask while driving...but i love the vid where he defends the dog...i posted the vid on my fb page he is a hero here in Asheville :) And i also like the fact that he invited that one guy to his wedding. That was really kind

  • quick word of advice that at least is right for cars, I assume it's the same for bikes... when the engine revs up like you said, the minute after you start. It's best to just tap the gas, so it resets and goes completely idle again. This is because the higher RPM are in face not good for the cold, and stationary bike.

    Once you've done that I believe (not sure about this, some people say so) its actually better to start driving right away like you said...

  • How do you balance your bike when you are at a stop light?...Wouldn't it be too heavy to hold up?

  • @ScottyIbanez because of the position of the engine. it has a low center of gravity. the first time you get on a bike (not a big one!), lean the bike ever so slighty until it starts to feel heavy and you can see what i mean. Stop and right the bike again unless you want to drop it.

  • @ScottyIbanez with your feet on the ground. You don't feel the weight of the bike when it is upright.

  • thanks for the video, very informative, nice scenery, I love to see different countries and people.

    .cheers

  • Thanks. This helped with my crf250x. I've been running in high altitude so its been weird up there. Thanks tho!

  • Thanks for sharing mordeth13 :)

    it's a BIG HUGE HELP for us beginners

  • do you have any experience with benellis

  • I have an old single cylinder 150cc carb scooter.

    how can you tell when a 2 stroke carburettor engine is warmed up?

  • @daimyoD just tpuch the radiator (in italian it's radiatori.. they are the cooling system).. when they are slightly hot your bike is well warmed and you can run.. if your scooter is air cooled, just wait a minute warming it with no moving, just acellerating ad braking, no moving. then, go about 5 minutes at half accelleration, then, you can gradually run!

  • @daimyoD Just ride it for 5 mins at low rpms and low speeds, that would do the trick.

  • @daimyoD when you can feel heat coming off the block

  • @daimyoD youre rpms should decrease, just let it idle for a while when you start it or ride it but just not full throttle for a few minutes.

  • @daimyoD wait two or one minute then its warm :)

  • @daimyoD

    If you are an IDIOT its hard to tell when your scooter with 150cc carb engine its warmed up.

  • so is it the same with a thwo stroke engine, cos ppl put a lot of stress on warming two strokes up to preserve the engine

  • Does the same rules for a car

  • thanks bro, just got a 500r and I'm learning from scratch. Huge help, your videos

  • You guys have 7-11's in taiwan? Awesome!

  • @cheezmebaby Got them here in Korea too. 7-11 do it big LOL

  • Something tells me that in the Far East they don't fleece you sick if you want to drive a motorcycle.

  • Guys wich bike is better Aprilia Rs50 or Yamaha TZR50 ????

  • Also can you reply? Sorry i talk a ton, and i want to know if you get this message

  • lol i keep watching your vids over and over. I love them!! I wish i could subscribe but om using an ipod, watching on my pc and it doesent let me subscribe. I cant log in on my pc. lol. Heres the question that i wanted to ask. Does your bike have a horn? Or just a bell?

  • @DocterGoodness of course it has a horn.. all bikes got that..

  • @DocterGoodness My god... A bell Is really going to get the attention of a driver...

  • You're in Taiwan? Come to Danshui some day :)

  • i like how hes talking and the people dont even notice

  • I had a bell like that once. Exactly like that. Compass included.

    I used it for a bicycle though.

  • Here's my two cents: you do need to warm up your bike and ride it easy for the first mile, farther if it's a cold day. Your bike, which I'm guessing is the same as one of mine, a kawasaki 650r sport tourer, should be set to idle at around 1450rpm. That's what I have mine set to, according to spec. You do know about bikes so you probably have a good reason why you have it set to idle at lower rpms, or simply no reason not to. Great vid, keep'em coming.

  • 3:15 the people on the street would be like who the fuck this dude's talking too ! xD

  • lol passed on a solid line...asia FT W

  • holky shit what kind of drivers do you have there? You nearly got that blue hatchback! Youre correct about the warm up BTW, The top of the piston gets hot and scores the cylinder wall.

  • are from china ?

  • Hi hope this post is still getting a little attention... is this the same rule for a two stroke- yamaha RD400

  • Anyone know what kind of helmet camera he is using?

  • how to warm up your motorbike .. just chat a load of fukin shit for about 3 minutes while it ticks over then take off

  • Whats the name of the motorbike?

  • you seem like such a nice person. Will you adopt me so we can go riding together?

  • Thank you! 1 l1ve 1n cold weather cond1t1ons and 1 haven't gotten a b1ke yet (1 plan to) and th1s 1s good 1nfo! Don't wanna f--k up my eng1ne r1ght off the bat, r1ght?

  • @ForceRecon198 whats with all the 1s

  • @shzze My "eye" key broke.

  • @ForceRecon198 hahaha man that must suck

  • @shzze For real. You have NO 1dea how much 1 get trolled for us1ng ones. 1t's k1nda sad but funny at the same t1me. :)

  • @ForceRecon198 how did you break it iiiiiiiii xD

  • @shzze Sp1lled coffee on 1t one morn1ng. :P

  • What country are these videos being filmed in?

  • @starguard he is in Taiwan

  • hey man im in need of dyer help im spending 1000 on a bike and would it be wise if i bought a rs 125 when im doing 30 miles a day ???

  • so it will not harm my Bike (Ninja 250R) if i drive it every morning and evening about 3,5 km with highest speed of 60km/h ? (morning first 600 meters or so 30km/h)

  • why trade a faster 600 for a ninja? just curious

  • Oil pressure is very high on most engine applications and flows quite quickly. For example my instruction in university told me that he has seen people forget to install the drain plug on a engine oil pan and in a matter of seconds 4 liters of oil is on the floor.

    Basically oil circulates very rapidly, it is responsible for approx 30 percent of cooling in most engines.

    Just don't disregard letting the engine warm up quickly, 13,000 rpm on a sport bike can spell problems.

  • Most engine wear occurs at start up.

  • ive got a harley wg, with a s&s twin cam 88....i just changed the enricher plug out for a new one (just bought the bike) and the original one was stuck from yrs of sitting. So its an air cooled engine and when i started it up the rpms were maxed, so i killed it...readjusted the carb (its not fuelinjected) so i did this a few times while dialing it in, and now i have it purrrfect idling at 950 to 1050 (righjt for this motor) being that its aircooled, i SHOULDNT have done dammage??

  • Mordeth what country is this?

  • How long do you suggest waiting for the engine to warm up during the winter.

  • M13 is my bible of knowledge!!

  • But what it's a carb bike, no injection, with liqud cooled engine and a low temperature, like 5 ti 10 degrees Celcius?

    Because I have to start mine with tho choke at max, and then push it a bit, and mentain a resonable rpm until it will stay at idle without choke and without stalling.

    Even then it will not be heated. Btw, I have a Suzuki RF400(4cil,4stroke,carb)

  • hahaha...mercedes asshole and kid...hehe

  • Where did you make this video and where do you live now ??

  • is the right side like the bike passing lane or why does everyone do that?

  • LOL 2 or 3 km to go "hard" on it? Are you kidding?

    I recommend: Start the bike, start driving right away (after 30sec is still OK) at least 10km on lower rpm's. I always do that with my Honda NTV 650.

    Also had a Yamaha XJ600 '89 once. Don't even think about getting over 8000rpm with that bike unless you got 20-30km on your counter.

    As you said: warming up your bikes engine is vital and extends the lifetime of a motorbike.

  • great vids :)

    thumps up

  • so when you warm up your engine during the winter, what are you supposed to do? probably a stupid question but i dont have a bike yet.

  • thank you for this vid! really interesting!

  • This scooter is cruising eh? Hey, I was just wondering.... are you Canadian or a mix of both Canadian and Taiwanese?

  • what type of bike do you have

  • ahem, rest of the *scooters*

  • I love it when people tell me they broke the engine in "the proper way" by babying it for the first 1000 miles. I can't help but reply; "Yep, you broke it alright!!" I still can't figure out why companies tell people to baby the engines? It's so stupid!!

  • what kind of bike are you riding in this video???

  • "but its a MERCEDES so hes alowed to b an asshole" lol TRUE THAT !!!

  • Dont they hear you talking to your self , 3:16 xD

  • great videos man :)

  • Theres an easy way to se when your bike is warmed up, if you have a Yamaha FZ6-N or S model like I do. The revcounter will blink untill the engine is hot enough. Also yoy can tjeck the temp gage. If the temp gage has 2 bars out of 6, then the engine is hot enough:-).

  • Does this matter for really hot places? Such as places in western states?

  • lol the funniest part is when the people on the bike in front are looking back and think he starts pointing at something so they look then look back at him at 3:29

  • i wish i didnt have to drive people around or i would have a scoot or a small motorcycle

  • Is it better to use rear brakes when braking around corners and the front brakes when braking in a straight line?

  • what about harley davidsons?XD those bikes can't stay in the same place turned on for 3 minutes withoud dieing! of course even without revving

  • do you live in japan or china? because the videos ive seen are like all in that kind of area lol just wondering

  • haha he has a mercedes so he's allowed to be an asshole

  • About the wind displacing the heat (btw i didnt really notice that before this vid) im guessing it would do it the same for a car but i could be wrong.

  • awful streets dude ... awful traffic

    i feel sorry for you mate :D

  • you call this traffic?

    have u been to downtown LA? lol

    great videos btw

  • those roads are awesome... you can just pass people everywhere and it doesn't matter. Everyones doing whatever they want lol.

  • Have you always ridden these kinds of sporty bikes? When you first rode a bike and accelerated did you ever feel like you were sliding off the back? Or, like, starting to slide back uncomfortably? This is probably just a matter of gripping the bike properly and stuff, but would you have any comments on that? Also, how much experience do you have with cruisers and tourers? Either by way of friends or first hand experience? =)

  • @DumuRaL The first brand new bike I bought was a cruiser. I started off riding cruisers. But now that I've tried sports bikes...I probably won't get a cruiser again. Unless I'm rich and get one as a 2nd bike.

  • what's about water cooled engines?

  • @ratfaty Sure with water cooled as well. Bikes are designed to utilize wind flow as well as their water for cooling.

  • Wind to distribute the heat...You gotta be kidding...

  • totally right on the warming up. there are a lot of people who let their bike or car warm up stationary. But it wil do damage on long term, cause you need good wind distribution to the engine like you said ;)

  • LOL

    Love the vids :p

  • The reason high tuned sports bikes do that is because when petrol (Gasoline) is cold, it doesn't vaporize as well, therefore, the engine runs rich and splutters under throttle (:

    As soon as the engine heats up, it vaporizes well, burns evenly and you can use full throttle.

  • "But it's a mercedes so he's allowed to be an asshole " Haha so true !

  • Hey thanks for the vids

    Which country is that?

  • Great video mate helped me out, ive watched your other ones and there good too .

  • now i know how not to mess up when i get my bike. do i have to warm up my tires too?how do you warm up the tires?

  • This vid is good ive seen all your vids and they are all really helpful thanks alot buddy

  • 5:27 Close call. I like how you go through traffic and stuff. I can't fathom doing that where I live (twisty roads, not overly populated).
