    You basically only need to wait until oil pressure builds up.
    On some bikes you can see it by the engine light turning off, on all the others the revs are a bit higher on cold starts.
    When they return back to normal you have normal oil pressure and can start riding and warming it up that way.

    • @thatasiandude1351
      @thatasiandude1351 Год назад +2

      yes I agree small amount of condensation ain't really a big problem, there's a thermostat for a reason and riding the bike in cold air will produce more condensation.
      also oil travel's in few seconds but the metal also need to be on operating temp.

    • @HalfdeadRider
      @HalfdeadRider Год назад +2

      The rpm's being higher is the auto choke (old bikes and cars have a manual choke), this is the engine being fed more fuel (richer mixture), to aid running from cold.
      You get oil pressure within a second or two of starting the engine, watch the oil light go out, if it doesn't you have a problem getting oil pressure.
      You can leave it idling before riding, while getting gear on etc, but you should ride slow/in as high a gear as poss to keep rpm's down until it is at running temps.

      ​@@HalfdeadRider how down should you keep the rpm while warming it up? On my sv650 I try to stay around 4500 (redline starts at 11k), which isn't really that low but it's still kinda low. What I do avoid is quick acceleration, instead I ride smoothly like a granny until it heats up. Also, unrelated to warming up the engine, wouldn't riding at really low rpm put unnecessary strain on the engine?

    You let it idle not for the oil purposes but for the warping of the metal.Different metals increase and decrease at different temperatures.Engines are very precise machinery.if you have the piston smaller than it should be,oil can leak thru the bottom.You let it idle so that the block and the pistons all line up perfectly,because they are the same temperature.

      If an engine is taking 1 to 2 minutes to circulate oil from sump to head you have a major oiling problem.
      Full Oil circulation of an engjne should take only a few seconds max.
      Warming the engine gradually is more about thermal expansion of piston to cylinder wall clearance as pistons can expand faster than cylinder causing exsisve piston/bore wear and even seizure if excessive RPM is used when cold.

      The oil pump does that before any damage can occur to the engine. Most oil works in a wide range of temperatures, so oil is a non-issue and you won't heat it up properly for a solid ~20 minutes if you just have the bike idle without putting load on it. You just don't want to rev it much while riding for the first couple minutes until all the engine components heat up so the correct tolerances are established

    If you start your bike, even if you are just doing maintenance and not riding it, you really should let it run up to temperature. This is to make sure there is no condensation left where it can cause corrosion if left for time.
    But, letting it run on idle while you put your jacket, helmet and gloves on is just fine!
    As is riding it straight away, as long as you keep the rpm as low as possible by staying in as high a gear as possible for the speed you need to ride.

    It's important to rev it up, not just sit on idle at 1-2krpm. Oil needs to spread out and the pump usually kicks in (to reach some of the difficult places) at 4-5k rpm.

    I have 1993 Honda 750cc Magna she had a manual choke and she did not like it to be run cold and when it was her 1st start up for the day she demanded being choked she would alway insist on a 10 warm up. Other than that she was a beast rode that girl from North Carolina to Tennessee back to North Carolina it was 320 miles one way quite a few times she never gave me a problem. She sits now for the past few years in my building her original chains witch has served her almost 40k miles stretched on the last trip back from Tennessee have not rode her since. But I bet on that if you fixed that chain put some 93 in it charger the battery pulled that choke let her warm up 10 minutes and she will take you where ever you wanted to go

  • @axe4770

    I found out that if I just starts my bike and immediately riding it with just at low cruising speed for about 3-4 mins the engine will warm up enough and reach the operating temperature at a much faster rate than just idling it. It took me like 10-15 mins on idle to get the motorcycle up to temperature but only 3-4 mins at 20-30mph around my house which is about 2-3 laps to reach optimum temperature. Idling is just a waste of time and fuel for no beneficial reason plus my engine has 110k+ miles and still running like new with the same compression when it was at 500 miles. As long as you do proper basic maintenance on your bike, idling isn’t necessary at all and doesn’t make any difference on the outcome. The main thing to worry about is properly break-in your motorcycle and have a check list for your vehicle service, if you riding like a mad dog consider doing those basic services at a much earlier stage. If you’re just cruising for fun at low to medium speed then you’ll probably be fine and no need to worry about frequent services. The more aggressive you ride the shorter your engine life will be and need to be rebuild more often, it is as simple as that.

  • @kevinallen206
    @kevinallen206 Год назад

    For everyone that wants to really know why you let it warm up it is because the piston will expand faster then the cylinder wall and trash shit. The oil also needs time to coat everything and get to a decent viscosity. Just like every single engine ever. It does not build condensation from simply letting it idle but from short rides where it never gets up to temperature.

    You can start the bike up and keep it on a rear stand and put it into gear and let the bike run while the transmission rolls on idle. Done this many times in winter and have had no condensation issue on my bikes.

    Warming up is fine just let it run lomg enough to cycle your fans a few times , oil coats internal surfa es but is a liquid and does gradually make its way down into the sump so letting it run is actually good it also conditions the seals , most engine wear occurs at start up when it's a dry start so imagine not running your bike all winter and then starting it that'd be a really dry start so circulate everything here and there and get a battery tender , if you have a rear stand let it go through the gears a few times

  • @omarsamad5480
    @omarsamad5480 Год назад

    You're right on a lot of things but this isn't one. You have to let the engine warm up 1) oil in colder conditions moves slower so it takes more time to get into each crevice and onto each surface 2) metal expands when hot and goes back to original form when cold. Your rings mostly. 3) condensation is very normal to comenout of the exhaust. That's just the chemical reaction of burning fuel and having the gazes exhausted. You'll never have "water" in the engine. If you do you have head Gasket problems. You NEED to let it worm up. Ask anyone who's ever lived in cold snowey areas. The worst thing you can do is not let the engine and trans come up to temps. Just look at racing teams and how they prep their machines. Always warm up.

  • @jimmorrison306
    @jimmorrison306 2 месяца назад

    Sometimes idle rpm isn’t going to circulate oil the way it would at normal operating rpm. As soon as an engine will idle smooth enough so as not to stumble under throttle, take off. Maybe don’t hammer engine until you’ve reached a normal operating temperature.

    @servenator-3335 Год назад

    If the vehicle is a carburated one you MUST let it idle so that it will reach sufficent air and fuel mixture and does not run lean causing exessive wear.
    Especially if vehicle in question has proportionally large displacement of cylinders such as a V2 engine of any sort.
    Otherwise rapid change in temparture WILL cause parts and different metals to warm up in different pace causing engine damage most notably cracking of the cylinders.
    In short, let your bike idle for 30seconds to up to 2 minutes before driving.
    If your bike is not prepped for witer standing you have to run the engine untill it is in sufficen temparture, run it until it is warm and it must not be turned off before the engine has reached temparture that vaporises moisture.
    Why run it? Because it prevents oxidising of the metals, keeps parts lubricated and prevents oil from glogging and turning into chunks.

    Of course you should warm and motorcycles engine up, metal expands when warm, so the bearings, pistons, rings ect need to come up to temperature (to expand into the bores) Also the oil needs to be a certain temperature to function correctly. You should really warm down your engine also.

    It's only causes condensation if you let it idle for a small amount of time, the bike WILL get up to running temp without riding it.. people start there bikes and let them idle so the oil isn't cold when you first start riding, a large percentage of engine wear is from high rpm and the oil not being up to temp

    You will create condensation even after riding it, even if you do not start it it will be condensation this is due to the fact that parts will cool down at different temps and when the dew point is reach voila condensation, it happens in your car too, now the worst will be not to start it as rust will set in due to a lack of an oil film ( unless you have properly set up the engine for storage)
