I just bought my first bike. Kawasaki Ninja 300. I test drove almost all 400cc single cylinder out there but i just didnt get the 'this is it' feeling... Until i rode the ninja 300 and z650. Thats when i actually understood what it means to ride in higher revs. Its so damn satisfying from the mid range onwards. I must say the indian brands like TVS and Bajaj should have their own twin cylinder. I just bought my ninja for 4.5 lakhs and the RC390 is around 4.15 lakhs. So why in the hell are these single cylinders so expensive. I really wish Tvs launches a twin parallel because they do have good enginnering.
One of my friend parchase a bike with me I me brought platina 110 and he brought shine. In one year I ride 12000km and he ride 80,000 km in just one year
Is 50,000 km life is meant for mid to serious performance motorcycles like r15 to 390 or is common for all engines......my friend's hunk clocked 1,25,000 kms and haven't opened the engine yet....also cbr 250r even if one cylinder is altogether on another league
Hi vikas bhai. Lovely explanation. I congratulated motogodz today through WhatsApp for purchasing Skoda rapid😊 I own both single and double cylinder bikes. HONDA CB350RS and Hyosung GT Comet 250R. Trust me, my Hyosung just flies on higher RPMS. I did 162 KMPH on my Hyosung on NH163. The Honda CB350RS is a sweet & refined motorcycle with high refinement levels, surprisingly high mileage (I get 40+ on highway) and tall gearing with amazing tyres and looks😊 And in our groups, I've seen few first gen 2017 and 2018 Bajaj Dominars and Honda H'ness, CBR 250S doing 1 lakh kms without engine overhaul ❤ As discussed, BMW Hyderabad asked me 10 thousand for pre-delivery inspection 😅
My 2011 suzuki GS 150R has clocked 1.23 Lakh km in a complete stock engine and still runs very smoothly and gives 45 kmpl mileage. I am very much satisfied with suzuki's reliability and my next bike will also be suzuki.
Generally, twin-cylinder engines are considered more durable than single-cylinder engines due to the balanced design, which reduces vibrations and stress on components. Twin-cylinders also provide smoother power delivery and better heat dissipation. However, single-cylinder engines can still be reliable with proper maintenance and design. It ultimately depends on the specific engine design and quality.
my r15s is 86000 in odo still old clutch plate still stock piston unopened engine ! Use synthtic engine oil & warmup correct ! And DONT LET ANYONE RIDE YOUR BIKE NEVER !
As far as my experience single with high cc and combustion doesn't last long where in multiple cylinders has High chance of durability because it dividing the power between two cylinders such a 650 twin has 325 cc on each cylinder and has a power out of between 20-25 on single cylinder that's means on high stress on single cylinder but on the other hand KTM has single high cc engine with high power but that single cylinder can't take it all for long term
Hello Vikas and Tarun , please can give a tyre showroom in hyderbad which can change tyres of superbikes without damaging the rims please. The showrooms are charging 4 to 5 times the charges 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Vikas anna, I took the delivery of my Speed 400 with 12 kms reading on the odo in August 2023. The sales and service people there are good but they said that they were instructed by Triumph to first test ride each vehicle for atleast 10 kms before delivering it to the customer. I thought yeah okay it's a new motorcycle, there may be issues so that's fine. Do you say it was justified by their explanation?
Great informative video. When i got into biking i used wonder how come Toyota Cars last 200/300k kms but bikes Piston/ConRod/Cylinder block needs replacement at just 50k km. My impression of bike apparently was only applicable for single cylinders as that’s the only category of bike available in my country Bangladesh 🇧🇩 due to engine displacement limitations. Now it makes sense.
Really nice to see detailed discussion about these Engines👌...but I want to know neatly maintaining brand new Single cylinder engine with the most Premium imported Fully Synthetic Engine Oil and Coolant and changing it earlier will really extend the life of Single Cylinder Engine coming closer to Dual Cylinder Engines...Thanks😊

Really appreciate these technical videos Vikas sir. These definitely make Riders ride responsible and efficiently. Hopefully, new riders will realize that riding responsibly not only saves money but also helps reduce emissions..
Pls do a podcast what to do if showroom is not giving 0km bike from showroom... For example here kawasaki delivers with 10-20kms on saying we brought it from our godown...if you dont wana take ...dont take ( and some1 else takes it instead) ...but thats how it is..pls suggest what to dp this case...
A much appreciation to you Vikash sir for making this video I hope Indian manufacturers like Bajaj , TVS make parallel twin engine bikes "Made in India for World " like RE and that too in yr 2024 -25 or else it would be late as I am sure as India is growing economically people won't esistate to pay foreign companies
I will put this to test. Currently riding a ninja 300, and have done 24000km in 6 months. I bought this bike for a long life. Lets see if this lasts for 3 years.
Most modern engines can easily last over a lakh kilometres with basic periodic maintenance. My 2013 ns has clocked 49 k, 2012 royal enfield standard 73k , and both these bikes’ engine is still in immaculate condition. But i have also seen ns engines getting rebuild at 8 10 thousand kilometres only. It is all about maintenance
Forget about red line I never tried to push my bikes( v strom 250 and hornet 2.0) above 6000rpm and my highness might not have crossed 4K rpm. Not sure about highnesses because it doesn’t have rev counter. I just ride my bikes in relaxed manner most of the times around 70-90

Ha ha yo brother

Japanese single cylinders can definitely last more than 50k km if maintained properly and also not ridden harshly
does the compression ratio stay constant over the RPM range?
my r15s is 86000 in odo still old clutch plate still stock piston unopened engine ! Use synthtic engine oil & warmup correct ! And DONT LET ANYONE RIDE YOUR BIKE NEVER !
bro sf 150 or sf250. how come their millege difference is only like 10 km?
The only way i can afford both twin cylinder and single cylinder is to get a splendor and get an interceptor😂
Absolutely correct
I have both
Duke390 single
Ninja650 parallel twin

First to comment. Beautiful 4 stroke example. I highly appreciate it Vikas bhai.
Thank you so much 😀
I still believe twin cylinder serves both world of performance and practically... For example Kawasaki 650 platform... happy owner
3:35 the reason i dont red line my Kawasaki 650 ... It gives decent range of 22 to 28
Vikas Sir is the BEST ❤🙏
Why are Indian bike manufacturers not trying their hands on v twin motors
Excellent explanation bro , and i have a question like “Is buying ninja 300 is correct in 2024?

What About Three cylinders?
Great informative video. When i got into biking i used wonder how come Toyota Cars last 200/300k kms but bikes Piston/ConRod/Cylinder block needs replacement at just 50k km.

Usefull podcast for bikers bro...most of them don't talk technicalities but you guys shared ur experience...thankyou
Want more informative videos from you brother's 👏👏👏...Keep it going 👍
Really appreciate these technical videos Vikas sir. These definitely make Riders ride responsible and efficiently. Hopefully, new riders will realize that riding responsibly not only saves money but also helps reduce emissions..
crazy vikas bhai your explanation is best.😁
Good Bike yrr

Can you make a video on parallel twin and v twin
16:06 for city buy 100 cc ...
Sir how is ninja 300 twin cylinder bike? Should i go for it? Or aprilia rs 457?????
14:22 😂😂
A much appreciation to you Vikash sir for making this video I hope Indian manufacturers like Bajaj , TVS make parallel twin engine bikes "Made in India for World " like RE and that too in yr 2024 -25 or else it would be late as I am sure as India is growing economically people won't esistate to pay foreign companies
Bro, I am planning to install the Fuel X Pro on my KTM 390 Adventure. Can you suggest whether I should install it or not ?
I will put this to test. Currently riding a ninja 300, and have done 24000km in 6 months.
I bought this bike for a long life. Lets see if this lasts for 3 years.
41 thousands but still running fine hope to run 70/80 thousands without major service
Short Simple answer :- Single cylinder.
I think i'll wait for Tuono 457 after watching this!
Good video..please make a video in nx500 which is twin cylinder
Thanks Vikas for remembering my R3 ❤
Hi brother, how are you...
How does it feel to Ride the New Ninja 500 Vikas Bro wanted to hear ur thoughts n opinions about it
can I book a RS457 now? give me suggestions pls.
How is V Twin compared to Parallel Twin ?
She can go on and on.....😂 Loved the content.
Very good! Thanks
Your content is unique and very useful in day to day business of owning a Motorclycle
Thank you brother
❤❤❤
Vikas garu which company's parallel twin is better given a budget of 4 lakh rupees.
Sure, I will update you brother.
Most modern engines can easily last over a lakh kilometres with basic periodic maintenance.
My 2013 ns has clocked 49 k, 2012 royal enfield standard 73k , and both these bikes’ engine is still in immaculate condition.
But i have also seen ns engines getting rebuild at 8 10 thousand kilometres only. It is all about maintenance
15:12 i agree , 7500 rpm and more , Kawasaki 650 sounds like world war fighter plane
