to warm the bike up which normally helps before a race!

[paezbak]

I think the main reason why we always have to warm up the engine first is because you need to get the lubricant to the right working viscosity(by increasing its temperature) so that it can reach the part it is intended to reach therefore to lubricate them and avoid the engine from unnecessary wear and tear.

Piston ring has the least thing to do with warm up. It was built to precisely fit into the cylinder. a piston has at least 3 layers of ring. Compression lost is only for cases of worn ring.

@mushrume i have a 954 wot is HESD i always let a bike warm up from cold it performs better on the roab

[mushrume]

@rjd560 what about the HESD on the fireblade . first used on the rc211v . varied electronically . but mechanicly the same . and hrc ecu you can adjust it

Yay Hondas!!! =D

@MetricHotrodsdotcom what a total load of garbage. Claiming rule teams have nothing to do with "morphing into WSBK", it has more to do with filling the grids. 2 strokes were outlawed because of the emisions rules. If it wasn't for motogp, cutting edge technology wouldn't trickle down into the sportbikes we ride on the roads.

@eppsislike this is the last year of motoGP. next year they are allowing production based 1000cc motors, and allowing the production based guys to run more fuel. so essentially, motoGP is morphing into WSBK, the only difference being the hand made chassis at this point. its over, boys. and if you want to thank someone, thank honda, they were the ones who pressured FIM into outlawing 2 strokes in ALL classes, to aid them in their four-stroke r&d. they did the same to the AMA in motocross.

@Yurrah Yep, and this Honda sounds more aggressive and deeper than the 800 version. Man I can't wait for next year :)

RC211V is a 990cc V5 right?

[ovietec010]

@sailorbosworth2010 ,,that's u'r opinion,,,i dont think a lot of folks will agree with that,,

RC211V is the king of kings,,so respect it and shut up,who the hell cares about u'r 1990 feelings..

@paezbak You're wrong, pistons are made of aluminum, sleeves are steel. The pistons expand faster than the sleeves causing wear on the piston and rings. Causing an eventual loss of compression. Multigrade oils usually have sufficient viscosity to lubricate cold. Race motors HAVE to be warmed up. F1 motors HAVE to be warmed up before you attempt to even start them.
