- Simplified is a new series on PowerDrift that aims to make automotive concepts, technology and ideas as easy to understand as possible. These short videos take the questions you have and clear the air around the what, how, why and when. And this time, we're talking about the sidewall of your tyre which has enough text on it to make a court filing look brief. What do those numbers on your tyre mean? Shumi finds out.

Hey #PDArmy, we hope this solves your queries about the tyre markings! If you have something more, do let us know below!
Types of engines, their benefits, drawbacks and use cases.
Engine braking, rev-matching and extending clutch lifespan.
What does 2.75 or 3.00...etc mean..?
Recalling from one of your previous video - Synthetic vs Mineral engine oil (and all the variants in between).
Thanks PD army for this.
Can you pls make a SimpliefiPD video or a regular video on Intercom systems that a riding gang can use? Also these are bluetooth based systems, can we have radio based intercoms as well?
Years of doubt removed in 6 mins. Doc Sumi was excellent. The animations were great as well
Thank you!
It's actually prof.Shumi.
Seriously u didn't knew this ? Any kid who drives even a small bike knows this.
@@AneeshChowdhury Why are you watching this if you already know it all?
Also, why do you feel the need to boast on a comment where someone goes to learn something and gives feedback about it? Sounds like it comes from a place of insecurity...
@@deus_ex_machina_ seems Aneesh is an expert of all these things and I expect him to start his own youtube channel to explain these things in a yet more better way.
Each and every day this channel is becoming our source of knowledge. Thanks we want to see this type of videos more
Thank you Somonjan! We shall have more for you guys!
Exactly bud!
If shumi taught me my subjects , I'd have have cleared IIT 😅😅
Kudos to team for great content... Loved it
I don't know who 'dislikes' such informative videos presented in a very simpler way.
Haters maybe
Love these episodes! Schumi would make a very nice teacher 👍
He's already a teacher at the TWO riding school! :D
I guess PD can start a Motorcycle University with the Dean being Shumi :) Great great job ... keep doing these typo videos.
Thanks Vignesh!
@@shu_mar btw I have booked RE meteor 350. Test drove the thing, instantly fell in love with it. Waiting period of 3 months and it can't wait to meet its fz16 version 1 brother in my garage
@@vigneshs4595 Did you ride the Hness ?
@@tanujsingh1331 Yes .. it is good too. But I feel more comfortable with Meteor, it's stance, height and u have to see the future maintenance costs as well .. don't want to be at the mercy of a single big wing dealer .. jawa 42 snt that great .. it's like riding mojo modified with a retro look .. there s no such jawaness left
We need more of this. PD is hands down the best Indian automotive channel out there and by bringing in content like 'Simplified', you guys are hitting the ball out of the park. Kudos to all your effort, stay healthy, stay safe. ❤️
Awesome!
Hi Shumi... appreciate that you have got the Tyres topic.. but you haven't mentioned anything about the tread design...
Can you please make a specific video about the concepts of tyre tread.
Personally, I see what the manufacturer claims the tread design does and go with that. There’s no real way for a layperson to see a tread pattern and make anything more than good guesses at what it does for the tyres performance.
Would love to see another content on changing lanes on highways and it's norms and also bikers info at it .
Thank you @shumi, cleared my doubts, I posted this question a few weeks back on Simplified, Thanks for answering
Soumi the saviour, demystified the tyre concept for us. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks a ton for this video. I have looked this up before but nothing satisfactory. This was perfect.
Awesome!
Knowledge is not how much you know, but how much you can impart to society. Nice one
Thank you Ankur!
Thank you Shumi, keep making these wholesome contents! 👍👍
These informations are basic but very useful, also if you could explain the usage or rather the conversion of the tyre or rim size accordingly on a car would have been wonderful. 👍👍👌
Am I the only one who's taking screenshots and saving them like notes 😅. Very informative video for any rider. Thanks shumi 👍
Seriously we love powerdrift becz it not only give info about bikes but make a person true rider in every aspects. Thanks.
Glad to hear this helped you Arindam!
There's so much more to motoring than just riding and driving, no?
@@powerdriftofficial yes sir, I personally loved it. Iam looking forward to know more about it.
@@powerdriftofficial it would be funny to let you know but after this video I went down to my garage to check the load capacity of my car which is 88 H. So now I have a much clear idea about the full load of my car which supposed to be 560kg and H is tyre speed limit which is 210. So I just loved the video. ♥️
Thank you shumi Do more videos at least once a week it's very helpful for enthusiast
Thanks a lot, this was so informative and simplified… next pls do torque and power
Awesome stuff! Always found it difficult to comprehend... thanks @PowerDrift for making it Simpler! Cheers!
Love the Simplified series.
Professor Schumi. Awesome and crystal clear explanation.
Thank you AK!
Thanks a lot.. will you please simply about the after market disc brakes for the cars
My motorcyling knowledge has increased to a great extent since I started watching PD!
Great insight on tyres, most of the people only pay attention to Rim and size. Could you please do a ep on clutching & braking? for ADV and city riding. Cheers
Can do!
Really amazing, please keep the series going!
Additional info : Manufacturers and homologation agencies plan to include energy efficiency rating (indication of rolling resistance of the tire ) and even a noise rating in near future
They weren't kidding when they said "India's best automotive content is right here"
PD is living up to the claim. Ngl i felt it was a lil bit cheesy when he started using it, but iam okay with it now.
Ahahahahaha! Thank you!
Hello powerdrift
I knew how to read tyre....but I love how u explain
Happy to hear that! :)
Nice as always. But still shumi your road rage podcast is #1. Really offbeat, but very important topic.
I was searching exactly this info couple of years ago but by digging deep i was still not satisfied with the answers. But this video is a gem. Lots of love from Bhopal ❤️
Sumi's each and individual review about the tyres structure and the categories is somewhat excellent.
Hi Shumi
Learned something new today, I am planning to change my motorcycle tyres recently. This video does help a lot, thanks a bunch !!!
Shumi explains like a guy I'd want to take my life problems to, just to get a fresh perspective on them.
underrated comment
Very simple but informative and useful thank you
Love the explanations❤️❤️
🍻
Good morning professor shumi
Would like you to provide info related to tyres when it comes to Indian bikes. Pirellis and Michelins are mostly used on superbikes and rarely on Indian bikes. Most of us folks would be riding something like a Bullet or a Dominar or a Pulsar. These bikes have MRF and ceat tyres mostly. It would be great if you shed some light on these daily use tyres and guide us as to what we can use as a daily driver. Love your content :)
The honest answer is that Indian tyres haven’t evolved to the stage where there are massive differences between brands, especially in daily use. Luckily, there are few poor tyres on the market. Stay away from the highest-mileage options (they have the least grip generally in cheaper tyres) and you’ll be fine. MRF, Apollo, TVS all make good tyres. I haven’t used a CEAT in ages, but they’re reportedly decent too!
Love these videos! Shumi is a natural teacher. Shumi Sir I got a doubt, what are radial tyres? Maybe in the next video about different kind of tyres.
Sure we can! But there’s enough good videos online too!
@@shu_mar wow got a reply from Shumi!!! I checked some videos but it is a whole different pleasure to learn from you🙂
Superb video. On point and simple explanation !
Nice one, Shumi. And no "subject matter" blunders from you today! 🤗 However, there's a language error. That "V" is NOT an alphabet. It's a LETTER. The English Alphabet has 26 "letters" and "V" (or P, H, etc.) is one of them. 🤗
A video on best riding gear and accessories for rainy season please.
Good informative series Schumi and Powerdrift...
Next time make a video on how to ride to maximize the life of a motorcycle engine...
For that, all you need to do is follow the maintenance tips in your motorcycle's manual to the T.
Awesome Shumi. Learnt alot today
Glad to hear that, Prasad!
Shumi does it again.. Valuable info.. Thank you for this video..
Pls do a video on torque vs HP 🙏
Shumi do a session on headlights, foglights and aux lights
Video on rev matching and it's pros & cons👍
Thanks for so much information SUMI SIR❤️❤️
Hi Shumi
Could you make a simplified video on Radial vs Bias ply tyres?
Thank you professor 😊
Very needed information thanks..
well explained
Crossplane technology is made for better low end to mid range torque compared to a inline 4, but nowadays inline 4 engines with shift cam technology and VVT technology make even better low end to mid range torque compared to CP4 Engine. Ex: Current gen S1000RR and current gen GSXR 1000 RR make more low end to mid range torque compared to a R1
Can you explain about Advantages & disadvantages of Alloy wheel vs Spoked wheel
The video was very informative. Thank you so much.
I would like to ask you if possible please make a video about types of engines in motorcycles and their specifications.
Thank you so much Sushant!
And we shall try for that topic.
Fornine also has an excellent series in tires.
Super content PD.
Love the simplified series. Getting to learn a lot of things from our all time fav Sumi. Thanks
No one can summarise and simplify it more better then @shumi
I would like to know what would be the checklist if any motorcycle breaks down during long rides
How to tackle remote places or situation where there is a fear of getting mob Lynching
Big bikes vs small bikes. Which are actually the most fun to ride on a race track.
Shumi is a legend❤️
Oh indeed he is!
Hey Shumi, one more great informative video again. I'm quite new to the riding culture and started to corner learning on my own watching some videos. Could you make a video for how beginners should start on this way and what things one should keep in mind from the safety perspective.
Thank you for the amazing content🙂
Love this segment! Keep it up!
🍻
Dudeeeee.... Just amazing 🔥🔥
Shumi also please make a video on how to maintain bike self to the maximum possibility.
Next idea: Rider's triangle and handle bars
These episodes are really great.... The animation and the explanation was spot on and really helpful !! Great Job!!
Shumi always rock
Absolutely amazing.
Very informative, thanks for sharing
@Shumi, please make a video on how to break a new motorcycle. Is it even necessary? If you don't break the motorcycle, will have an impact on the life and performance of the motorcycle??
Incase of a hard braking, should you press the brakes first or clutch first? And why so? The advantages and disadvantages
Could you do a video on quickshifter and slipper clutch
Great content as always Shumi. Please could you made a video about breaking in 1)A new motorcycle and 2)A new tyre? . Thanks 😎
There's not much to it.
1) Your motorcycle's manual has the steps
2) Drive/Ride carefully for first 50-100km, and then you're good to go.
I have a mt15 and its rear tire says 140/70 R17 M/C 66H, so what does M/C stands for here and why is the front tire rated for P whereas the rear is rated for H speed rating
M/C = Motorcycle. P & H are speed ratings. As long the rating is higher than the top speed of your bike, you’re ok
@@shu_mar thanks a lot shumi✌🏻
Changed to Michelin Road 5 from stock Metz on my Duke 390 in March 2020. Couldn’t find Metz in market then. Bikes run less than 500kms since then. Would the tyre degrade due to non usage?
Finally somebody thought bout letting the people know
Will Duke 250 be a good choice or one should stretch for the 390 because I don't see many Duke 250 on the road and mostly everyone says 'just get the 390'
Is it a not a good choice because of its price?
It all about how you enjoy the ride and who cares abot top speed even in india we able to cruise on highway for 100 to 120 max if roads permits. Just get the bike which feel good on your pocket D 250 is good for city as well as Highway. Just enjoy the ride don't focus on what machine ur ridding is what you feel when you ride.
Stay safe
They’re not interchangeable! The 250 is a very sweet motorcycle whereas the 390 is a very naughty motorcycle. Test ride & decide!
Very good content , even if you don't get views , please just keep this trend going , internet needs it 👍👍
Haha! Stay tuned, Harit!
priceless data.
almost as priceless as the speaker.
Thank you so much for this video👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the info shumi
Always happy to help!
That's a pretty informative and useful video..... Lovely man lovely
Loving your knowledge about bikes ❤️❤️❤️
Chaala bagaa chepparu saamy🙏
Pls explain Torque and Power
Shumi excellent job man. This is going to take powerdrift to a new level. Also in accident like situation can a person use engine braking instead when his/her brakes are not too good. What is the impact and what is the trade-off we are looking at
I owned RTR 200 & I am thinking to upsize my tire, front 100/80 - 17 & rear 140/60 - 17, so can you give any suggestion.
Very useful information
Sir can you make a video on heating pads used in steering wheel
It's working principle, use, material used
Informative 👍
Awesome PD ♥️
Shumi, how does different size wheels on front and back mean? Triumph cruisers have front 18inch wheel whereas rear is 17inch. Please explain.
another great video! love this type of content. Could you guys make a video on motorcycle revving- Indian conditions
A very simplified yet a very informative video. Good one.
Thank you Ajas!
Shumi explained it better...than anyone 😂😹
I want to change tyres for my TVS Apache RTR 200 4V 2017 model. I am looking at something that will help me have a good grip on rain wet roads. The current stock remora ones by tvs keep skidding at high speed while braking.
Please help @powerdrift @pdarmy
Very helpful. Thanks a ton bro :) Keep up the good work.
Question
Stock size : 150/60/R17
If i upsize to
Upsize: 160/60/R17
Will it affect/ alter abs?
It like he can read your mind 👏
I can! You’re welcome! 🤩
The video is seems end suddenly..... I don't know may be I am excepting something more..... Bcz hunger of knowledge 😋😋..... Very nice video informative as always and I want listen how to choose a tier based on category like mileage, sporty, tourer, off road, and other technical knowledge like making of tire and silicon tires like that....
2:00, "road conditions are unpredictable" , as an foreigner 🤣🤣🤣😭
