Noooooooooo! you are mistaken my frand. :) :P Putting few probiker stickers on your bike can increase bhp by 10% and if you wear dainese suit with bathroom slippers on, it increases by another 10% Good vlog btw, nice topics. Do stick to the every week atleast one video schedule :)
You have told so many things, air filter, full system exhaust, catalytic converter, ECU, hoof... !!! It's like reading textbook (means clearly describing what it is and how to do it, but still we will never be able to do it :P ) As always, really appreciate your effort and it comes by heart for you !! Kudos Vikas :)
Hey vicky my friend. You saved my time and money. I would not invest so much to get 5 to10 % power out of my rc390. Thanks ton for this video. God bless
Perfect dude...people think k&n n akrapovic are the key to more power in ur bike...but actually fuel gives power to ur bike...thanx for clearing up with these myths...
Around 3:40 you talked about lean mixture resulting due to 'free flow [sic]' filters. In carbureted engines, a higher flow of air will draw a higher amount of fuel from the reservoir, resulting in more charge entering the engine, having more or less the same composition. Similarly, in fuel injected engines, the O2 sensor will sense the bump in O2 due to higher air flow and the ecu will adjust the air-fuel ratio back to normal.
Only if your ecu relies on its o2 sensor on closed loop,wich is quite rare on bikes as i know. Otherwise you will just lean the mixture because the ecu do not adapt the mixture. it's often based on engine speed and air density with throttle position sensor, on bikes,and o2 sensor is not used. depends of the bike,i guess. on carbs engines if you increase the airflow you will exceed what your jets can flow og gas,so will have the same problem. Carbs are generally running rich,so it lets you some margin to increase airflow without re jetting.
If what you said was true removing an air filter from a motorcycle airbox will increase power on a carbureted bike. However, in real life removing air filter will result in the bike not revving to the red line due to running too lean. If you don't believe me try it. Result will be the same with almost any bike.
This guy is 100% right. !!! Horsepower sells parts. Torque wins races. Aftermarket parts will give you more power. ??? But it's at the sacrifice of low-end torque. You will not be riding your bike at 7 to 9 thousand RPMs. ??? Where these after market parts help. !!! Stage 3 racing cams. 12 and a half to 1 compression. The more power you add the sooner they wear out. The more your fuel mileage goes down. ???
if u want to increase hp Step 1: take the engine head apart Step2:machine it (CNC)inlet,exhaust port (increase area,check valve clearance Step3: Flow bench it. M-in = M-out Use better air filter,Exhaust system Do maintenace works like cleaning Do sensible weight reduction!
Kartik Naryal you need to increse the jet size of carb in your bike. this mod is known as Upjetting. otherwise you will not able to get advantage of your k&n mod. for temporary purpose you can do a rich mix on carb. but upjet soon as possible. otherwise it can damage engine if engine is not getting enough fuel in compare of air.
Somehow this old video of yours showed up in my recommendations and I'm glad I clicked on it. I always wondered about the air filter mod since I was a kid. One thing I now know for sure: In order to gain extra performance you need to do all the mods you talked about in this video. Not just air filter or an exhaust cause that will just bottleneck the advantage of the mod or even backfire like you said. All of these mods seem too much of a hassle for bikes under 600cc. Very nice video, mate.
Sorry to say but I think you have a misconception about free flow filters. In the case of a fuel injected engine, the amount of fuel is determined by various factors including the amount of air that gets into the manifold. Therefore if you increase the amount of air that can get in, the amount of fuel is also increased by the ecu in order to maintain a correct fuel/air ratio. In the case of a carbureted engine, once you instal a k&n filter for example, you need to re-jet the carburetor so that the a/f ratio is maintained. Now on both cases you increase the amount of mixture that gets to the cylinder, and therefore the force crated by the combustion is bigger creating more power. I agree with you about the free flow full system exhaust. That's always the way to go. It is designed in a certain way for each motor so that the gases flow correctly and even the sound waves help to fill the cylinder with new gases. Now about the programable ecu or stuff like that, it allows you to do what's called customizing your curves. This means you set a certain amount of fuel for each rpms. This is because the fuel ratio your engine needs varies depending on your engine speed in order to get maximum power. Sometimes it has to be a tad rich and sometimes it has to be a tad lean. Adding this component allows you to fine tune your engine for your type of riding and even the track your running in, in the case of races. In the case of race cars or motorcycles this is tuned for each circuit they run in order to get max performance.
Mateo Arcos Thank you very much for the information mate! I appreciate it.... Thanks for watching mate! Hope you are subscribed to the channel. Hope you enjoy my other videos too. Have a nice day!
ths video so helpful bro..u opened my eyes...i was planning to get a k&n for duke200.. n could u pls make a video abt the OBD light indications on motorbikes.. caz i got ma obd lights blinking on my duke200... i dnt knw wat problem my baby duke is having...
nice topic but how much can a piggy back ecu do to performance it can pump power a bit , what if you install a piggy back ecu on a fz fi or r15 they are 150 cc , free flow works it reduces the weight by eliminating the cat con , now above all its up to your wheels ie. your gear set up sprokets
I have a new pulsar ns200 2017.. i don't like its sound... 1. Will slip on exhaust change the sound?? 2. Will it affect the engine? 3. Will it reduce the mileage? I ride my bike for daily commuting. Performance is fine.. i only care about the sound right now.. need a little sporty loud sound
hello dude i got ur point ...i'm planning to buy k&n airfilter for my duke 200.. it says it allows more air to engine and enhances sound..nd it also improves fuel economy...my point is K&N surely allows significantly more air to engine ..it will provoke complete combustion of air fuel mixture..may boost some HP...rather to stock filter which may not allow suffcient air which may cause incomplete combustion hence lower performance..after all whats ur opinion should i buy it @ 3000 INR..
SOUMYADEEP1991 You can buy it.. I would not stop you! However, if I were you, I would not buy it and replace the stock air filter... Thanks for watching mate! Have a nice day!
looking at the ktm bikes it can be easily seen that its build for performance right? so why would ktm itself use such air filters which would decrease their bikes performance? but even then iam curious to know whether or not there is any effect!
Vikas Sir, Could you please clarify the doubt .. Stock ECU can change AFR ratio on the go from O2 sensor readings. Its capable of tuning in varied altitude conditions. Then just a slip on addition must be handled by ECU. It should not require a Fuel Mapper or Power commander. Also dyno tune is not necessary. Since ECU regulates air quantity flow, even when installed a free flow air filter, the ECU must take only the required amount of air and not the total air flow from filter. So is a free flow/high flow filter actually needed ?
hahahah good one MotoMythBuster :) How about suggesting a combo of air filter (K&N I've heard is very good), custom piggyback ECU (Powertronic maybe?) and free flow exhaust (IXIL, Arrow, Fuel Exhaust, something with a classy note similar to that of Benelli TNT300's)? For my RC390, focused towards increasing the initial acceleration over the stock. Keep em coming mate.
Rahul Mane Thank you very much for watching mate! Yes, K & N is fine for the intake, Powertronics for the Piggy Back ECU and about the exhaust.... well international brands are very expensive. I would suggest not spending more than Rs15,000 on the exhaust pipe. However, there is a new brand named MotoTorque, they make ready to bolt on exhausts for the Duke and RC models. The cost is only Rs 8000. Full stainless steel and also middle pipe included.

bro I have a Pulsar RS 200 in which i face a lot of pick up issues...i wanna increase it....service centre guys suggested a better air filter n motul engine oil....please suggest...most importantly please tell if there is any negatuve impact on bike engine if i get k&n air filter installed...btw loved d video...cheers...
just to correct a few things, its hi-flow not free flow. free flow is flowing without restriction, aftermarkets air filter does have some restriction, air doesnt flow freely into your engine and some full system exhaust do have catalytic converter, its located right at the end of the end-can. take a closer look at motoGP bikes for example and to add on to it, a full system pipes are harder to make and expensive and time consuming due to the bents along the pipes called mandrel bent. Stock pipes are cheaper n easier to make for mass production. if the manufacturer wants it, they could built a mandrel bent pipes with a catalytic converter and modern catalytic arent as restrictive as earlier ones but the cost of the bike gonna cost a whole alot more. Plus changing the end-can alone does make a few changes to your bike that is weight saving. Your bike will be lighter in the rear, lighter bikes gives more nimble handling and quicker launch thus making your bike feels it has more horsepower n torque. Niways good video
+akupehsluarketatAR Thank you very much my friend.. I appreciate your inputs.. Hope you enjoy my other videos too. Hope you subscribe to my channel. Cheers!
Vikas, I just stumbled across your videos while looking up bike related information on youtube, and I have to say brotha, I really appreciate your work. So many people have perpetuated this myth, and the way that you presented the information can't be refuted. Keep the awesome videos coming!! P.S.I would personally like to know what you think about lighter weight 500-800cc motorcycles VS.1000cc+ motorcycles. In America everyone scoffs at you for riding a more agile bike; just a thought.
mrBcomplete Thank you very much my friend... Your kind words are a great motivation to me. You have a very nice question. I personally like all kind of motorbikes... Yes, 600cc class is very light weight and very good with handling.. I personally love the CBR 600RR, R6 and Daytona 675.... However, many 1000cc superbikes are also very light weight and have way more torque and BHP than a 600cc... So, a very confusing decision to take for a buyer :) Hope you enjoy my other videos also and hope you subscribe to my channel... You can find me on facebook also.... facebook.com/Iammotorbiker facebook.com/vikas.rachamalla
Once again perfect answer! I'm a small guy so I'm limited to smaller bikes (for now) but I just catch a lot of shit or people belittle my bike because it's below 1000cc. I personally love all bikes as well; all motorcycle riders should be like family. We have to look out for each other, because a lot of people in cars won't =P.
Hey man..!! I appreciate your efforts. I'm from BANGLADESH. Recently I installed R9 Zeta exhaust on my Indo CBR 150r. So, If I install Hurricane Air filter to my bike Is this harm engine? Should I use stock sir filter? Please let me know. Thank you.
Hai vikas, u've been doing commendable job providiing useful information to us. As per ur video if we remap d ECU will there be any efficiency drop(mileage). i own a Duke 200.i have put an ixil hyper low slip on and also a K&N.do i really need to remap inorder to unleash the real juice of my bike?
Nishanth Peddapati You have a good question mate! Yes, the fuel efficiency will low by 10% or so, as we are sending in more fuel to the engine to burn. Good that you have bought the K & N and Exhaust, now you only need to by the Powertronics ECU for your motorbike :) Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
Hey there +Vikas Rachamalla , K&N spoils the engine whereas GREEN USA increases the performance and lasts longer. I have GREEN on my Pulsar 150 and it's doing pretty good. My friend had K&N on his pulsar(same model) but his engine is ruined. So i have a carbureted engine and i watched the video and it says i can get it jetted. will jetting the carburetor damage the engine or result in a mileage drop?
Bravo!! As ever, ur simple explanation is doing magic!!, so vikas i am planning to buy a 'Piggy back ECU' from 'Powertronics' for my ktm duke 390(only after its 'warranty period' expires), which they say(inter net) just swapping it to a 'stock bike' can dramatically increase every thing!! power and torque( they r showing it on a 'Dyno chart')? So my question is if that was a myth, what all other stuffs i should buy in order to get a 'serious bang' from my duke along with a piggy back...precise brands(full system exhaust and a free flow airfilter, K&N probably)...
Praveen K R Thank you very much mate! Your words are a great motivation to me. Yes, the Powertronics ECU is good and specifically made for the Duke... They do say that we will get a 2BHP top end increase just by strapping on their ECU to a fully stock bike with stock Air intake and exhaust, however, if we consider the theory of engineering, it would not be possible... However, we can never say :) But to get the real power output, you need 3 things. Yes free flow intake (K & N), Powertronics ECU and Free flow exhaust. Now the Exhaust does not have to be of a premium brand, we do not need to spend thousands of dollars to buy one. All that we need is a free flow pipe which can let out the gasses.. There is a new exhaust in the market names Mototorque, they make a ready to bolt on exhaust with the middle piple, fully stainless steel. Cost is about Rs 8000. I would suggest something of that kind.. I am very happy that you all have liked this video, so I am making a part 2 of this video with more detailed information. Please stay tuned. :) Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
Vikas Rachamalla hey bro i love your channel and i appreciate your Hard Work Just 1 Question from my side Recently i bought a Pulsar Rs200 Can i Replace The Sto k Filter With K%n?? Is it Bad for my bike Please Do Reply Thanks
TheMaskMan MaskMan Yes mate you can replace. however, I am not sure if we can find a ready to fix K & N model for the RS200 right away, as it is a new bike in the market and moreover, as your motorbike is very new, I would suggest you to ride her for a couple of thousand kms and then we can work towards improving the performance and by then a few brands will come up with exhaust, ECUs and Airfilters for the RS200 motorbiker. Thank you for watching the video. Have a nice day!
what happens if i just do the full system exhaust and no power commander or air filter change? I am not racing tho....i just like how shiny a full system looks and sound
what happen in our engine if we just replace with a full system exhaust without power commander? what impact will happened in engine, i mean will this broke engine faster? some people believe if we replace with aftermarket exhaust system will make engine sick, and some believe with aftermarket exhaust will make engine more cooler and fuel efficiency... (sorry with grammer, english is not my culture)...
I have TVS Apache RTR 180, installed K&N RC1060 with Stock Carb Mikuni BS29 with MainJet 125. will i need more upjetting ? or it's enough for my bike? right now bike is also on slight rich mix. so i'm not facing any issues even at high speeds there is no jerking. Can you tell me the jet size 125 is right for my bike ? with K&N RC1060.
The 2017 Duke 390 sounds really good when it's DB killer is removed .there are a few videos on RUclips showing how to remove it .My question is if we just remove the DB killer will it effect the bikes ?
if you put a better air filter it will give you better air flow, like I have a shit air filter on my snowmobile and it won idle half the time because of it. gotta get a new filter
I just got a classic 350 bs 6 ..I need a simple advise should I use an after market exhaust bhai? If it harms the engine I won’t use it ..and if u say yes which exhaust do you recommend ??
HEY! Bro i have a question... The thing is i was the sound of my bike to be more louder i went to places and asked if i could just put a slip on for more sound, they said they'll have to remove the air filter and thts something i dont want so, i just wanna ask will putting on the slip on exhaust (for sports sound) without removing the air filter and air cooler still give me the sound i want?
Hello sir.. i want to ask -Installing k&n in my bike will harm my bike engine in a long term ? OR should i go for slipon exhaust? i dont want it for any performance upgrade but just for better sounding.
k. vijay Yes mate, if the replacement Air filters are not high free flow and more of less the same like the stock, you can install. Thank you for watching!
+Aditya Upadhyay No mate! We can install Piggy Back ECUs only in Fuel Injected bikes and for Carb bikes, we need to Re-Jet the Carb and put bigger jets. Thanks for watching mate!
Nice video about gain the power......though u could help out us with the braking...i feel a bit less confident while braking....any changes to the brake rotors, brake pads and master cylinders...help me out and other guys....if u could..
Yashwant Raj Thank you for watching mate! Hope you are subscribed to my channel. Please let me know which motorbike you ride. Looks like it is a RC 390, it has a good master cylinder, rotor and caliper, however, the brake pads are something we can upgrade if possible. I am also looking for an upgrade on this part. If I find, I will keep you updated. Have a nice day!
Vikas Rachamalla And one more thing....is it legal to install aftermarket exhaust....do cops bother about that...emission testing and some more like noise violations.....cause I'm gonna install exhaust and i dont wanna be in a problem
buddy.. i have a new avenger 220 dtsi engine.. i m intersted to fit k&n air filter into it, nut im worried about it messing up my engine.. im not confident on mechanics to get this job done perfectly..what do u suggest... n i go for long drives often..will the air filter cause any problems for long drives?
+Vitus Francis I suggest you stay with the stock company filter mate! K & N will not make any huge difference unless we re-jet the carb and also install a free flow exhaust. Hope you are subscribed to the channel and do enjoy my other videos also. Thanks for watching mate!
Bro I have a pulsar 220f and I am planning to change the stock exhaust of the bike...so should I buy a full exhaust system or not and which exhaust to buy I am confused...so plz suggest me a good sounding exhaust...and one big question, does an aftermarket exhaust affects the bike engine?
Hi bro i own rayz, tvs Apache 160 hyper edge and now broughted gixxer sf but I'm not satisfied with the top speed what can I do to increase the top speed of my bike without changing the exhaust because I love the exhaust looks
My duke 250 is running rich with stock air filter and stock exhaust.If I upgrade to k&N does the air fuel mixture become normal ...and I also have lack of power under 5rpm and if I open the throttle ....it stalls for 2 sec and then only gain speed
@Vikas Ranchamalla i bought the new suzuki gixxer 155 ...how long shud i ride it slow....? some ppl say u can open the throttle after ua first service dats 750 kms .......some say 1500 ...im confused ...plz help me ! ....ty :)
Akshay Kumar.M Just ride normally, do not open full throttle. But do not exceed more than 70% of the RPM provided and do not ride slow at low speed in top gears, it will put load in engine.. I am making a video on the same topic bro. Please stay tuned :) 750 kms is enough....not needed to wait til 1500 km....
hey there nice video mate I changed have changed the air filter, exhaust as well as tuned it as for the more fuel inlet. my question is that i am not using full system exhaust but the slip on one, so does it is blocking the outlet somehow?
Bro can you please tell me.... Actually i want sports bike sound in my bajaj v15.... So should i go with kn n air filter....for good sound...pleas2 you tell me i only trust on you about bike😀
Hai Bro, I have 2011 pulsar 220 F While I'm pushing the engine in full throttle When i am shifting from 3rd gear to 4th gear. Some cracking sound is coming, Suddenly gear fall into neutral gear if I try to adjust the gear liver its faling down to 2rd gear, Rear wheel is locking up, when I drive smooth it is not at all happening Some mechanics r thinking Gear box inside the engine missing the Gear shifting in 3rd gear some are telling That replace the chain sprockets ? I am totally confused
Rohithvinsie bumble Looks like a clutch issues. Please get the clutch done up at the service center mate. Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
it is something concerned with false neutrals., try using synthetic or semi synthetic engine oil., if you are still using the same chain sprocket since purchase., then its better to change it
Sir i had called up yamaha showroom today in abudhabi and they said the price of the R6 is 50000 Dirhams.....that is about 9 lacs which is the same price quoted for india. So if i bring the bring to chennai after a year or so should i pay the custom duty or just pay some minimal amount tax??? If i have to pay the proper tax means it will probably cost me nearly 20lacs which doesnt make sense!!!
ITGuru Yes mate! I also suggest you to buy the Daytona 675 in India. It will cost around Rs 12.5L on road..The R6 will cost you close to 18 Lakhs if imported to India.
Brother i hv the zmr 2014 model wht if i install an aftermarket exhaust nd a k&n filter but. If i do not put the ECU dn will it hurt my engine. As my primary demand is just the sound. Not the performance. Plz help..
sourav adhikary You would need to Re-Jet your Carb mate. Does your motorbike have a Carb or Fuel Injection? Thanks for watching! Hope you are subscribed to the channel and hope you enjoy my other videos also. Wish you a nice day!
after installing after market ferrox airfiler on my cbr 150 indian version.my top speed dramatically decreased.i ride about 30km then immediately goes back to stock filter.but the performance remain same decreased.how to fix this prob pls help
Noooooooooo! you are mistaken my frand. :) :P
Putting few probiker stickers on your bike can increase bhp by 10%
and if you wear dainese suit with bathroom slippers on, it increases by another 10%

It depends on the size and number of the stickers.
Vikas Rachamalla what is the difference between full system exhaust and slipp on exhaust??
You have told so many things, air filter, full system exhaust, catalytic converter, ECU, hoof... !!! It's like reading textbook (means clearly describing what it is and how to do it, but still we will never be able to do it :P )

On a carbureted bike you must re jet your carbs if you want any performance gains from aftermarket exhaust or air filters

if u want to increase hp
Step 1: take the engine head apart
Step2:machine it (CNC)inlet,exhaust port (increase area,check valve clearance
Step3: Flow bench it.
M-in = M-out
Use better air filter,Exhaust system
Do maintenace works like cleaning
Do sensible weight reduction!

k&n filter stickers also adds 2% more power
Ha ha, well said mate. Thanks for watching mate. Hope you enjoy my other videos too and hope you subscribe.
You would only get a significant increase if you get a dyno tune , full race exhaust system , and a upmap
And lean mixture can over heat your bike....you have to change the fuel map with addition to free flow filter and exhaust.....
YUP!
i loose power on high rpm's after installing k&n filter into it:(
Kartik Naryal you need to increse the jet size of carb in your bike. this mod is known as Upjetting. otherwise you will not able to get advantage of your k&n mod. for temporary purpose you can do a rich mix on carb. but upjet soon as possible. otherwise it can damage engine if engine is not getting enough fuel in compare of air.

vidit dawar Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
Don't bikes have O2 sensor and dosent the ecu increase the fuel injection to compensate the excess O2 coming off the exhaust system
Your absolutely correct, as long as the O2 sensor is in place ur bike corrects the fuel mixture

Krishna .paritala Ha ha, thank you mate! I love learning and lots to learn yet :) Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
will bikes with O2 sensors support free flow air filters ??
nice topic but how much can a piggy back ecu do to performance it can pump power a bit , what if you install a piggy back ecu on a fz fi or r15 they are 150 cc , free flow works it reduces the weight by eliminating the cat con , now above all its up to your wheels ie. your gear set up sprokets
Hey Vikas in your next videos do something about sprockets and gear ratio and how it affects the acceleration.
Abhijit Balan Yes, good topic mate! I will do that. Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
I have a new pulsar ns200 2017.. i don't like its sound...
1. Will slip on exhaust change the sound??
2. Will it affect the engine?
3. Will it reduce the mileage?
I ride my bike for daily commuting.
Performance is fine.. i only care about the sound right now.. need a little sporty loud sound
Hey man..!! I appreciate your efforts.
And thanks for giving us useful information.
And keep doing these videos it helps alot.
Keep it up👍

hello dude i got ur point ...i'm planning to buy k&n airfilter for my duke 200.. it says it allows more air to engine and enhances sound..nd it also improves fuel economy...my point is K&N surely allows significantly more air to engine ..it will provoke complete combustion of air fuel mixture..may boost some HP...rather to stock filter which may not allow suffcient air which may cause incomplete combustion hence lower performance..after all whats ur opinion should i buy it @ 3000 INR..
SOUMYADEEP1991 You can buy it.. I would not stop you! However, if I were you, I would not buy it and replace the stock air filter... Thanks for watching mate! Have a nice day!
looking at the ktm bikes it can be easily seen that its build for performance right? so why would ktm itself use such air filters which would decrease their bikes performance? but even then iam curious to know whether or not there is any effect!
does putting on all these aftermarket things on bike affect the mileage of bike?? is it good or bad if we talk about the milage!
The ECU will adjust for the air filter. It will NOT harm your engine.
Ok Vikas what about an fz16 I think it doesn't have an Ecu for this bike hw can we use an k&n
+Sushil reddy you have to tune it for the more fuel then that of air inlet
Vikas Sir,
Could you please clarify the doubt ..
Stock ECU can change AFR ratio on the go from O2 sensor readings.
Its capable of tuning in varied altitude conditions.
Then just a slip on addition must be handled by ECU.
It should not require a Fuel Mapper or Power commander.
Also dyno tune is not necessary.
Since ECU regulates air quantity flow, even when installed a free flow air filter, the ECU must take only the required amount of air and not the total air flow from filter.
So is a free flow/high flow filter actually needed ?
hahahah good one MotoMythBuster :)
How about suggesting a combo of air filter (K&N I've heard is very good), custom piggyback ECU (Powertronic maybe?) and free flow exhaust (IXIL, Arrow, Fuel Exhaust, something with a classy note similar to that of Benelli TNT300's)? For my RC390, focused towards increasing the initial acceleration over the stock.
Keep em coming mate.
Rahul Mane Thank you very much for watching mate! Yes, K & N is fine for the intake, Powertronics for the Piggy Back ECU and about the exhaust.... well international brands are very expensive. I would suggest not spending more than Rs15,000 on the exhaust pipe. However, there is a new brand named MotoTorque, they make ready to bolt on exhausts for the Duke and RC models. The cost is only Rs 8000. Full stainless steel and also middle pipe included.

bro I have a Pulsar RS 200 in which i face a lot of pick up issues...i wanna increase it....service centre guys suggested a better air filter n motul engine oil....please suggest...most importantly please tell if there is any negatuve impact on bike engine if i get k&n air filter installed...btw loved d video...cheers...
just to correct a few things, its hi-flow not free flow. free flow is flowing without restriction, aftermarkets air filter does have some restriction, air doesnt flow freely into your engine and some full system exhaust do have catalytic converter, its located right at the end of the end-can. take a closer look at motoGP bikes for example and to add on to it, a full system pipes are harder to make and expensive and time consuming due to the bents along the pipes called mandrel bent. Stock pipes are cheaper n easier to make for mass production. if the manufacturer wants it, they could built a mandrel bent pipes with a catalytic converter and modern catalytic arent as restrictive as earlier ones but the cost of the bike gonna cost a whole alot more. Plus changing the end-can alone does make a few changes to your bike that is weight saving. Your bike will be lighter in the rear, lighter bikes gives more nimble handling and quicker launch thus making your bike feels it has more horsepower n torque. Niways good video
+akupehsluarketatAR Thank you very much my friend.. I appreciate your inputs.. Hope you enjoy my other videos too. Hope you subscribe to my channel. Cheers!
Vikas, I just stumbled across your videos while looking up bike related information on youtube, and I have to say brotha, I really appreciate your work. So many people have perpetuated this myth, and the way that you presented the information can't be refuted. Keep the awesome videos coming!!
P.S.I would personally like to know what you think about lighter weight 500-800cc motorcycles VS.1000cc+ motorcycles. In America everyone scoffs at you for riding a more agile bike; just a thought.
mrBcomplete Thank you very much my friend... Your kind words are a great motivation to me. You have a very nice question. I personally like all kind of motorbikes... Yes, 600cc class is very light weight and very good with handling.. I personally love the CBR 600RR, R6 and Daytona 675.... However, many 1000cc superbikes are also very light weight and have way more torque and BHP than a 600cc... So, a very confusing decision to take for a buyer :) Hope you enjoy my other videos also and hope you subscribe to my channel... You can find me on facebook also....

Once again perfect answer! I'm a small guy so I'm limited to smaller bikes (for now) but I just catch a lot of shit or people belittle my bike because it's below 1000cc. I personally love all bikes as well; all motorcycle riders should be like family. We have to look out for each other, because a lot of people in cars won't =P.
mrBcomplete Well said mate! Wish you a nice weekend...
So should I just add a slip on get lil bit more sound and call it a day?
Hey man..!! I appreciate your efforts.
I'm from BANGLADESH. Recently I installed R9 Zeta exhaust on my Indo CBR 150r. So, If I install Hurricane Air filter to my bike Is this harm engine? Should I use stock sir filter?
Please let me know. Thank you.
you should do this more often
Devaansh Patra Thank you for watching mate! I will do this more often from now. Have a nice day!
Hai vikas, u've been doing commendable job providiing useful information to us.
As per ur video if we remap d ECU will there be any efficiency drop(mileage).
i own a Duke 200.i have put an ixil hyper low slip on and also a K&N.do i really need to remap inorder to unleash the real juice of my bike?
Nishanth Peddapati You have a good question mate! Yes, the fuel efficiency will low by 10% or so, as we are sending in more fuel to the engine to burn. Good that you have bought the K & N and Exhaust, now you only need to by the Powertronics ECU for your motorbike :) Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
But replacing stock exhaust with an aftermarket exhaust reduces the bike's weight right. So is it not an advantage?
Aftermarket exhaust is always lighter than the stock exhaust... No cat converter..
Hey there +Vikas Rachamalla , K&N spoils the engine whereas GREEN USA increases the performance and lasts longer. I have GREEN on my Pulsar 150 and it's doing pretty good. My friend had K&N on his pulsar(same model) but his engine is ruined. So i have a carbureted engine and i watched the video and it says i can get it jetted. will jetting the carburetor damage the engine or result in a mileage drop?
Is air filters bad even for fuel injected bikes? since they inject a precise amount of fuel and air.
Shephard is awesome , rest of the info is spot on
Great video sir.!!!
Fleming Winston Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
Bravo!! As ever, ur simple explanation is doing magic!!, so vikas i am planning to buy a 'Piggy back ECU' from 'Powertronics' for my ktm duke 390(only after its 'warranty period' expires), which they say(inter net) just swapping it to a 'stock bike' can dramatically increase every thing!! power and torque( they r showing it on a 'Dyno chart')? So my question is if that was a myth, what all other stuffs i should buy in order to get a 'serious bang' from my duke along with a piggy back...precise brands(full system exhaust and a free flow airfilter, K&N probably)...
Praveen K R Thank you very much mate! Your words are a great motivation to me. Yes, the Powertronics ECU is good and specifically made for the Duke... They do say that we will get a 2BHP top end increase just by strapping on their ECU to a fully stock bike with stock Air intake and exhaust, however, if we consider the theory of engineering, it would not be possible... However, we can never say :) But to get the real power output, you need 3 things. Yes free flow intake (K & N), Powertronics ECU and Free flow exhaust. Now the Exhaust does not have to be of a premium brand, we do not need to spend thousands of dollars to buy one. All that we need is a free flow pipe which can let out the gasses.. There is a new exhaust in the market names Mototorque, they make a ready to bolt on exhaust with the middle piple, fully stainless steel. Cost is about Rs 8000. I would suggest something of that kind.. I am very happy that you all have liked this video, so I am making a part 2 of this video with more detailed information. Please stay tuned. :) Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
Thank you,i m waiting for ur video(part 2)...
Vikas Rachamalla hey bro i love your channel and i appreciate your Hard Work Just 1 Question from my side Recently i bought a Pulsar Rs200 Can i Replace The Sto k Filter With K%n?? Is it Bad for my bike Please Do Reply Thanks
TheMaskMan MaskMan Yes mate you can replace. however, I am not sure if we can find a ready to fix K & N model for the RS200 right away, as it is a new bike in the market and moreover, as your motorbike is very new, I would suggest you to ride her for a couple of thousand kms and then we can work towards improving the performance and by then a few brands will come up with exhaust, ECUs and Airfilters for the RS200 motorbiker. Thank you for watching the video. Have a nice day!
Buddy, so if i add only ECU (no filter and exhaust) on my motorbike, will there be any increase in power. I am using CBR. Please suggest.
what happens if i just do the full system exhaust and no power commander or air filter change? I am not racing tho....i just like how shiny a full system looks and sound
what happen in our engine if we just replace with a full system exhaust without power commander? what impact will happened in engine, i mean will this broke engine faster?
some people believe if we replace with aftermarket exhaust system will make engine sick, and some believe with aftermarket exhaust will make engine more cooler and fuel efficiency... (sorry with grammer, english is not my culture)...
very nyc video bro....very informative..i just want to know how does some superbike produce fire through the exhaust?
I have TVS Apache RTR 180, installed K&N RC1060 with Stock Carb Mikuni BS29 with MainJet 125. will i need more upjetting ? or it's enough for my bike? right now bike is also on slight rich mix. so i'm not facing any issues even at high speeds there is no jerking. Can you tell me the jet size 125 is right for my bike ? with K&N RC1060.
You are like encyclopedia in bike bro🔥🔥🔥👌😊
So so true... l feel drop of power on my Harley Davidson Iron 883 post installing just slip on of Vance & Hince...it's loud
The 2017 Duke 390 sounds really good when it's DB killer is removed .there are a few videos on RUclips showing how to remove it .My question is
if we just remove the DB killer will it effect the bikes ?
if you put a better air filter it will give you better air flow, like I have a shit air filter on my snowmobile and it won idle half the time because of it. gotta get a new filter
I just got a classic 350 bs 6 ..I need a simple advise should I use an after market exhaust bhai? If it harms the engine I won’t use it ..and if u say yes which exhaust do you recommend ??
u r absolutely right bro
Does power commander works in 160 or less then 200 cc bike if it's not then what should we do for sending more fuel. Plz reply.
This does not apply to cars with Mass Airflow sensors and O2 sensors.
HEY! Bro i have a question... The thing is i was the sound of my bike to be more louder i went to places and asked if i could just put a slip on for more sound, they said they'll have to remove the air filter and thts something i dont want so, i just wanna ask will putting on the slip on exhaust (for sports sound) without removing the air filter and air cooler still give me the sound i want?
Hello sir.. i want to ask -Installing k&n in my bike will harm my bike engine in a long term ? OR should i go for slipon exhaust? i dont want it for any performance upgrade but just for better sounding.
Hey Vikas, what do you think about stock replacement air filters for the bikes? is it fine to install???
k. vijay Yes mate, if the replacement Air filters are not high free flow and more of less the same like the stock, you can install. Thank you for watching!
can we install piggy back fuel controllers in every bike like in carburetor bikes too
+Aditya Upadhyay No mate! We can install Piggy Back ECUs only in Fuel Injected bikes and for Carb bikes, we need to Re-Jet the Carb and put bigger jets. Thanks for watching mate!
+Aditya Upadhyay all u need is a screwdriver to tune a carb engine. goodluck :D
did tuned it
Which action cam do you use,is it a gopro? how do you charge it when you're riding?
Mayank Pratap It is a GoPro mate.. I use a power bank and charge the camera when I stop for a meal on long rides :) Thank you for watching!
Nice video about gain the power......though u could help out us with the braking...i feel a bit less confident while braking....any changes to the brake rotors, brake pads and master cylinders...help me out and other guys....if u could..
Yashwant Raj Thank you for watching mate! Hope you are subscribed to my channel. Please let me know which motorbike you ride. Looks like it is a RC 390, it has a good master cylinder, rotor and caliper, however, the brake pads are something we can upgrade if possible. I am also looking for an upgrade on this part. If I find, I will keep you updated. Have a nice day!
Vikas Rachamalla And one more thing....is it legal to install aftermarket exhaust....do cops bother about that...emission testing and some more like noise violations.....cause I'm gonna install exhaust and i dont wanna be in a problem
Yashwant Raj In India except Chandigarh state, no other place there is an issue with aftermarket exhaust...
buddy.. i have a new avenger 220 dtsi engine.. i m intersted to fit k&n air filter into it, nut im worried about it messing up my engine.. im not confident on mechanics to get this job done perfectly..what do u suggest... n i go for long drives often..will the air filter cause any problems for long drives?
+Vitus Francis I suggest you stay with the stock company filter mate! K & N will not make any huge difference unless we re-jet the carb and also install a free flow exhaust. Hope you are subscribed to the channel and do enjoy my other videos also. Thanks for watching mate!
nice German Shepherd it is very happy with you is it yours
Everything is nice we will gain power but what about pollution checkup??
does removing of air filter safe?
Only putting k&n free flow air filter decrease the mileage?
Hi Sir
I have installed after market slip on my himalayan. Is it require to install bmc or k& n?
Bro I have a pulsar 220f and I am planning to change the stock exhaust of the bike...so should I buy a full exhaust system or not and which exhaust to buy I am confused...so plz suggest me a good sounding exhaust...and one big question, does an aftermarket exhaust affects the bike engine?
Hi bro i own rayz, tvs Apache 160 hyper edge and now broughted gixxer sf but I'm not satisfied with the top speed what can I do to increase the top speed of my bike without changing the exhaust because I love the exhaust looks
bro, will a slip-on exhaust damage the bike engine or reduce the mileage of the bike?
My duke 250 is running rich with stock air filter and stock exhaust.If I upgrade to k&N does the air fuel mixture become normal ...and I also have lack of power under 5rpm and if I open the throttle ....it stalls for 2 sec and then only gain speed
Another good video!
Hawaiisidecar Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
@Vikas Ranchamalla i bought the new suzuki gixxer 155 ...how long shud i ride it slow....? some ppl say u can open the throttle after ua first service dats 750 kms .......some say 1500 ...im confused ...plz help me ! ....ty :)
Akshay Kumar.M Just ride normally, do not open full throttle. But do not exceed more than 70% of the RPM provided and do not ride slow at low speed in top gears, it will put load in engine.. I am making a video on the same topic bro. Please stay tuned :) 750 kms is enough....not needed to wait til 1500 km....
Vikas Rachamalla thank u sooo much :) .....ua videos are highly informative :) ....keep up the good work :) :D
Sir.. I hve pulsar 200 ns.. Can I install a slip on? And after installing it, does it harm the bike?
Hi Vilas I have pulsar 200ns 2017 , I'm planning to install a aftermarket exhaust I've just completed my 1500km should I install it?
hey there
nice video mate
I changed have changed the air filter, exhaust as well as tuned it as for the more fuel inlet.
my question is that i am not using full system exhaust but the slip on one, so does it is blocking the outlet somehow?
Bro can you please tell me.... Actually i want sports bike sound in my bajaj v15.... So should i go with kn n air filter....for good sound...pleas2 you tell me i only trust on you about bike😀
Hi, if I just install a full system aftermarket exhaust, will it damage my bike?
Hai Bro,
I have 2011 pulsar 220 F
While I'm pushing the engine in full throttle When i am shifting from 3rd gear to 4th gear.
Some cracking sound is coming, Suddenly gear fall into neutral gear if I try to adjust the gear liver its faling down to 2rd gear,
Rear wheel is locking up,
when I drive smooth it is not at all happening
Some mechanics r thinking Gear box inside the engine missing the Gear shifting in 3rd gear some are telling That replace the chain sprockets ? I am totally confused
Rohithvinsie bumble I think its a case of clutch slippage,take it to the Bajaj SVC they will know what to do.
Rohithvinsie bumble Thats what you get for buying a pulsar. PULSATING PROBLEMS :)
Abhijit Balan Good Suggestion.
Rohithvinsie bumble Looks like a clutch issues. Please get the clutch done up at the service center mate. Thank you for watching mate! Have a nice day!
it is something concerned with false neutrals., try using synthetic or semi synthetic engine oil., if you are still using the same chain sprocket since purchase., then its better to change it
Sir i had called up yamaha showroom today in abudhabi and they said the price of the R6 is 50000 Dirhams.....that is about 9 lacs which is the same price quoted for india. So if i bring the bring to chennai after a year or so should i pay the custom duty or just pay some minimal amount tax??? If i have to pay the proper tax means it will probably cost me nearly 20lacs which doesnt make sense!!!
You will have a pay a lot a custom duty (unless you are super rich )
Its better if you buy a 600cc bike from india itself
Get daytona 675r
ITGuru Yes mate! I also suggest you to buy the Daytona 675 in India. It will cost around Rs 12.5L on road..The R6 will cost you close to 18 Lakhs if imported to India.
Life On Two Wheels Good Suggestion mate!
Does aftermarketexaust harm my bike? Or less milage??
hello sir what happen to ur RS 200 had u sell that bike??
@vikas.... does installing a slipon exhaust on my 2017 duke 390... hamper the engine in long term?
Brother i hv the zmr 2014 model wht if i install an aftermarket exhaust nd a k&n filter but. If i do not put the ECU dn will it hurt my engine. As my primary demand is just the sound. Not the performance. Plz help..
sourav adhikary You would need to Re-Jet your Carb mate. Does your motorbike have a Carb or Fuel Injection? Thanks for watching! Hope you are subscribed to the channel and hope you enjoy my other videos also. Wish you a nice day!
after installing after market ferrox airfiler on my cbr 150 indian version.my top speed dramatically decreased.i ride about 30km then immediately goes back to stock filter.but the performance remain same decreased.how to fix this prob pls help
