Harley just launchd x440 in India, its asking $3600-$4000 on road(thats including taxes and insurance) depending on variant.
you got me had to grab a pair of gloves and a shirt... get some free gas!!!
I would love to put my supercharged 2000 ZX-12R against your turbo Busa in the 1/4 mile.
Do tighter pants = more safety?
The busa just sitting menacingly in the corner:
Menacingly? You mean kawaii? 👉👈

After a literal year of dreaming and fantasizing about riding a bike, im finally heading to the dealer tomorrow and picking one up. Thank you papa yam for being the reason i ignored my family and gf to finally embark on this 2 wheeled quest for all the smiles and to get to experience a new passion before i hit the big 30 in a few weeks lol. You have the best quality content on this platform and i hope it brings you joy to know how many you have inspired. thanks again man. =D
how'd it go?
i want to do the same but im scared to die
@@chanmanthegreat1429Life is living mate. Why live a long life if it was a miserable one?
Same, ima daily ride my bike 😅
How was it?
I’m definitely not a beginner rider, this was more informative than you know sir.
Well said
So glad to be a beginner rider just passed my msf course this weekend and went over to the dmv today to get my license
Among other things, the brake proportioning valve on a Chevy van assures that the rear brakes are engaged before the front brakes are engaged. This stabilizes the rear end during braking. Presumably, activating the rear brakes first "plants" the rear end on the asphalt so it doesn't wander around when the more powerful front brakes are engaged. Transposing this strategy to a two-wheel vehicle, If you hit the rear brakes first, that action would stabilize the rear end before the more effective front brakes are engaged.
My advice is to use rear brakes as well, using both brakes will net you more stopping force and also keep the bike more stable and you also might minimize front wheel lockup if you have old bike with no ABS to save you. I had a accident when my front wheel locked up, its a scary thing.
Triumph's new Street Triple comes with linked brakes... as do others. I always used it anyway... for the reasons you mentioned.
I always use both brakes - first the rear and a split second later the front. Obviously, the front has more power than the rear, but that doesn't seem to be a good reason not to use both. You can't "stomp" on the brakes like you can in a car or you will be going down. You need to progressively add pressure.
@donaldwilson5693 you have it backwards; it should be front before rear. Also, braking with both brakes has the undesired effect of preventing the front forks from compressing and therefore increasing rake.
@@ayowser01you are absolutely incorrect. Using the front brake removes load on the rear tire, increasing the likelyhood of slipout if you apply the rear brakes after the front
Its ALWAYS rear brake firm to lighter pressure and then front brake light to heavy pressure.
Always. End of story.
Dude, I absolutely love watching your vids. As someone who has never tried riding, you have given me the confidence to try 🤘
I have over a quarter million miles of riding and racing experience, and I think Yammie Noob is spot on with his advice and information. I really like this particular video.
ridings easy just easy on the gas and smooth cutch yo u good go slow at first
MSFcourse go do it
Hello Yamber Nooberman, I bought a c50 boulevard, my first bike, 3 weeks ago after watching you, DDFM, MotoJitsu, and BxD for like forever. I think that after absorbing your guys' content for 7+ years, it's actually helped me tremendously. I got comfortable with the bikes grip, balance, clutch, and brakes so fast. I'm literally doing feet up stops like I've been riding for years 😂 My friends say I've got natural skill and coordination because before I bought the bike I had like 10 minutes of riding experience on a pit bike😂 But I think it's seriously just years of watching you guys. Thank you for keeping me safe
Hill start on a manual car: you can easily start without using the handbrake if you can control your feet enough to step from the brake to the gas pedal while releasing the clutch. It takes some time to learn but easily possible. You can also hold the car uphill with clutch and gas pedals only - but it may cost your clutch. I should know, I burnt one this way because I was too lazy to use the brake pedal in a traffic jam 😁😁
I pedal everywhere, there’s quite a bit of nuance that can be applied to the bigger bikes
After coming across this channel 2 years ago, and religiously watching DAILY for half a year, I finally got my first bike today. Much love, papa yam. Thank you for all the knowledge I could have ever wanted starting out. I'm forever grateful to you and Jake.
Probably should have mentioned, went with a sv650.
I really like these style of videos. Someone out there has a question i havent even thought of. Awesome work
I've watched you years before i got my motorcycle, but even then I had my eyes on the ninja 650 krt. Just love that green. Thanks for continuing your channel. It's helped me a lot.
Rear brake for super slow maneuvers is a must. At least on a dual sport/dirt bike. Hold light throttle, use rear brake to modify speed.
Use both brakes. Both. Brakes. What a stupid idea to ignore the rear.
Your explanation of why insurance premiums, in general, are going up is spot on. I appreciate you being in tune with the industry. Insurance Agent here, Acknowledging Yammis statement.
Love the content doing the MSF course this weekend
Love the vids. Thank you so much it helps a lot
I am super excited for the new Triumph 400s. I hope you'll get the chance to do a irl comparison of the 400 (scrambler or speed) with maybe the KTM 390 and the Husqy 401. Triumph entering this particular beginner market is massive for them.
Getting my license this month see y’all out there ride safe❤
Yamcast GP coverage is what got me to watch GP, so... I'd like to see that come back.
How convenient, decided that I wanted to get a bike license today, and this video drops.
I remember that day young fellow, now I just think about my Hayabusa day and night . Welcome !
Spend less than you make🤔very good advice 👍🏽. Wish I knew that when I was younger lol
Another place I would say cycling "helps a ton" is understanding how to manage grip while the bike is neutral. You can't add any more brake or power. You can get really comfortable with both wheels on the edge of their grip limit, and balance it front to back.
17:35 lol I have a blast and love it. You're absolutely right tho, it flopped when there is a market for it
I would think that grabbing a handful of front breaks with the handlebars turned has got to be a leading cause of pavement drops.
I love having the Busa just sitting there, I dont think you should ever get rid of it, even if you never fix it
I just got started riding (recently began practicing swerves and hard stops!) and I gotta say- I’m with ya on the antisocial riding. I have a lot of friends wanting to ride in a group with me but honestly I just wanna jam out on my own and be zen in the hill country. 😂
I've never been on a motorcycle but really want to someday hopefully soon. Very nervous, but very excited!
The day you buy the bike will feel like a dream, it's a beautiful feeling
It’s like riding a bicycle except it goes faster.
ive been on the g310gs for 3 months now, just under 1000km from weekend rides and its just epic! I wanted an R3 or Ninja 400, but realized theres alot of fun offroad and a bit slower too lmao.
To anyone wondering what bike to get, just sit ona few and ask dealers to start them up, choose something that excites you, simple as that.
There is few things more funny than hitting the dirt with asphalt tires and sliding in the corners and straights just with the throttle.
That new Triumph! ❤
All types of insurance services and/or services that require an interest payment are the drivers of inflation. In other words, the first thing that is designed to go up in price or cost when a capitalist government and economy are interests. In very general and superficial terms, the goal is to redistribute money to different industries or classes in the economy. It's a tool that is used by economists to keep the system going, not a symptom/reaction of the system. So your insurance is going up essentially because you can technically afford it when compared to whatever else they are comparing it to.
Picking up my first bike tomorrow and I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning to come
gl man be safe. what bike r u picking up?
Cool., don't shoot your eye out!
As for the fitness element there is some serious truth to that if you want to ride hard. Especially if you want to ride a heavier cruiser bike hard, you really have to work the bike and body position to get to the performance level around turns you'll want since you're starting from a severe disadvantage. That being said it is rewarding muscling a 5, 6, 700lb bike spirited through corners hour after hour.
Stay hydrated especially when it hot ,,watch out for oil in centre of roads at lights, from cars leaking
Big hoss energy hat. GOBBLESS
Passed my IBT (irelands version of MSF) this weekend. And I did EXACTLY what you said the most common mistake for a beginner rider is 😂😂😂 I went wide on a roundabout, didn’t turn right or lean enough, target fixated on the curb and that exactly where I went. Bike is a write off. I learned a lot of lessons that day 😂
You still passed after crashing and writing off the bike?
@@sleepyrasta14820 I passed and crashed on my way home
Rear brake is optional not necessary, in certain conditions mainly racing it is useful. On street I may go days and never touch rear brake. In street situations dual front disks on my zx6 are more than enough.
"I wouldn't say it's a good bike, ...". I told you Busas are dumb, Yammie. Glad to see you're finally willing to admit it.
Great video! Has anyone else heard about the new Harley 400 that's going to launch in India? I vaguely remember seeing an article for it.

If your on a 150cc scooter like I am never ever use Michelin tires. they do not grip well and you will slide out even in good weather. you may not have heard of shinko but if you ride year round these give you the best grip when it's wet or slippery it will still feel like it's dry.
First crash for beginners going wide. 😂yep that's me😊
Overall sound advice on every comment. I like the comment about predicting human behavior…just assume the idiot you are observing is going to do the most dangerous thing and plan accordingly. And profitability…that’s life advice!!!
HOSS GOT A CLIBBINS HAT DONT LAYERDOWN.
Harley Davidson is making a X440 with Hero Motocorp for Asian and European market which will rival these Triumph twins. It will launch on july 5.
I was doing 4 miles minimum a day on my specialized 29er. Sometimes up to 22ish for years
Triumph 400 is a single cylinder, works for Euro roads. Not sure about Freeways here in USA.
Me riding since 1981, started on a Suzuki GT 500, presently a 1700 VMax, next will be a small bike, maybe back to 650 or 500 due to age.
Haven't used the rear brake for years except on gravel. Wheelies are for show and shit. Better learn to adapt your mind to given street and traffic. That is hard enough. Once you can "read" the street and other riders / drivers behavior, you are a good rider.
17:38 well well well your wish is fulfilled ..440cc Harley is launching soon
Spend less than you make!!! this advice can save your life !!! Pls follow/Ride it with responsibility
Never gets old ... new riders asking how to race, without realizing they're asking how to race.
HDX440 performance perfection .
I hope
Inflation rates are not running wildly out of control, despite how it feels. They have been declining since June 22 and are down to 3.1%.
Are there endurance races for 600? I just love the daytona and id lovr to buy it and race it in the future
I always crashed alone but it happens pretty often than cars don't see me and cut me off or do dumb unpredictable stuff.
So….. get a turbobusa got it! Thanks Yammi
Harley did reveal HD 440 in India today and it's less than 30hp in the motor. It's between meteor 350 and speed 400
A big problem in the USA. No real school to give you the knowledge to ride your bike. Too easy to get your licence to ride without even knowing what your rear brake works. When you rear brake you low your bike in order to break better with the front. It is also essential when it rains because you can slide a bit from the rear but with the front you kiss the ground. And finally you can brake a bit with the rear on a turn but not with the front.
Bro Trident 400 and Harley 440 are jst lunch... Plz make a video
Harley makes a 500cc beginner bike or at least in New Zealand you can get them
That 400 Triump does look pretty sharp. I wonder if they are aiming at KTM? or Honda? Kawasaki? or all of them?
I know awhile back I was watching a pro dirt bike rider, talk about how the power to weight ratio on bikes is getting
ridiculous & you can't even have fun.. b/c your just constantly trying to keep the "power in check" on the motorcycle.
It was an interesting vid. He said he figured the sweet spot was around 400cc.
I miss the yamcast!!!
"Beginner" questions he says, then right out of the gate its turbocharging a bike and dropping knees doing hairpin turns lol
That Triumph engine is probably not brand new and maybe they're using the KTM 373 engine with a new head and restyled cover... Bajaj has the rights to make the engine and has done so before in the Bajaj Dominar.
And Harley did launch their 440x models today at Royal Enfield prices.
pls get ur hands on that street 400 asap pls
Does Yammie like yams during thanksgiving?
2:23 not sure if "getting your knee down is a byproduct of speed" is correct statement, because it can seem you only can get deep lean by running fast. Lean depends on centrifugal force, which in turn depends on speed & turn radius (we assume bike + rider mass stays same between runs). Same centrifugal force will be applied if you run 20kmh on 3m radius circle and 90kmh on 60m radius circle. It is probably riders brain which limits deep lean on slower speeds :)...
5:45 "Can ....you wheelie?" I am reminded of an old biker I asked about wheelies, back when I was a teen. "Son" he said, putting his helmet on, "Wheelies are like downhill ski jumps you see in the Winter Olympics. It looks really cool, it's very hard to do, it serves no real purpose & if you get it wrong YOU'RE F'd!!!"
This set looks like a therapy office for bikers lol 🤷♂️
Nice
what bike would remind you most of a quicksilver shining bullet speeding down the road? I am looking for one, and a full suit like an Arrow in silver ... what brand and models should one look into ?! thanks! is a serious question... I understand is a noob question but I am a beginner.. I am fine with 600 cc.. but I want the feel of traveling like a silver bullet along the German Highways!
im a new rider, only use front brake...my system is still used to bicycle brakes. thus, i only use my hand for braking....LOL
You need to practice using both brakes. If you need to do an emergency stop you might not be able to stop in time.
How are you cycling and jumping rope combined together? Sounds like u are doing both simultaneously, do u have some ramps set up on your route?
on the topic of a single cylinder Harley, have you seen the x440? It's a 440cc single cylinder bike for specifically the indian market. Is that something you'd like to see over there in the US?
me watching this on my way to pick up my zx14 today 🙂
Second best beginner bike.
Harley Davidson announced their 440X if I'm not wrong. It's a single cylinder
Me as a 19 year old having had 2 accidents and papa yam talking about it not being that common. I live in europe so it's not even me looping a litre bike after doing the pathetic test u have in the us. A car pulled out infront of me driving my moped when I was 17 and then 5 months later I drove into a ditch on my 125cc due to gravel that made me kinda panic and made me target fixatied on the ditch in question.
CLIBBINS!
What do you think about the Aprilia Rs 457.
Im a new rider with a 2023 honda grom and im wondering if its normal to not be able to downshift from 5th to 1st gear while standing still. I have to basically rock the bike back and forth while downshifting to get it from 5th to 1st
Carpark drops more common for beginners
If you ride a 70s Triumph, you have to use both brakes and engine braking, or you just don't stop.
came for the moto talk, stayed for the financial advice.
Make more than you spend.
New biker here what sort of locks or disk locks do u have guys I have honda pcx 125
Hey yamie... how i must gear ... first up and then all down... whats is the clutch... can i buy for my first bike new superduke?
Hey papa Yam, I've been watching you since I was 13 and recently I pulled the plug on purchasing my first bike an Indian Scout Bobber 60 at the age 19, this bike feels a little uncomfortable because I've never ridden anything above 125cc and this was 1000cc. You know how weird your fans are and so am I. I did what you've told not to do so many times. But I really loved this bike. So thanks for being a part of my journey from the point where I had no bike to a 1000 cc story
Amazing! I'm glad I could be part of your journey in any way. Ride safe and enjoy
Would you recommend an Aprilia rs660 for a first road bike?
Yaaaayeee, all recluses unite, at home by yourselves......
And I’m sitting here with a cbr 1000rr and a gsxr and they’re both not running😩
Hi
The solo ride vs group ride was something i truly felt and for and veteran rider feeling that comforting. I wouldn’t. Say in a beginner rider but when I ride In a new group I always feel that.
It’s more stressful because I’m not that skilled. Twisties and canyons I know is fine so I can pace my self with the group.
I don’t know it just hit with my concerns with any group ride
Yams; what’re the different norms around parking your motorcycle? I live in Tacoma, WA, and see bikes parked on sidewalks all the time- but as far as I can tell, that’s not legal. Is it something cops just wink at?
Wait…..there’s a rear break?
can i trust your motorbike gear brand?
So I have one question: What bike should I choose: 2023 Ninja 650, 2023 Yamaha R7 or 2023 CBR650R?
cbr 650 has the most power but r7 looks the best. I wouldn't bother with ninja 650
Whats your expierience? Are you looking for first bike or it will be your next?
@@cypeksz yeah the first one. I dont intend to buy any 400-500cc, I want to go straight for 600-700 cc. Is it the best idea?
@@ominousending2145 Ninja 650 should be fine first bike because has low power, its easy to ride. But this motorcycle is very dull in my opinion. I have more fun riding my R3 than on Ninja 650.
Yamaha R7 has sporty position, many torque and demand some skills, if you dont wanna takes corner like Rossi I would prefer mt07 .For me R7 its to sporty on Road and to slow on track compared to Aprilia RS660.
Honda CBR650r has inline 4 cylinder and some power. Its make difference but I didnt ride it yet.
If you wanna ride a lot on track that I would choose between R7, Aprilia RS660 or something from 400cc class
Whats engine breaking?
Have you ever seen or heard of... a yamaha xtz 150 😳
