Fun fact, (i thought everyone knew this) You can just gently preload the shifter, and when you flick your wrist off the throttle it will pop into the next gear no clutch needed. I've done this on every bike I've ridden ranging from 1980s XS1100s to modern CBRs and Vmax's. Try it. You'll be shifting like lightning. It doesnt hurt the machine if you do it right, which is very very easy. I win almost every race because for some reason nobody does it. It's not complex nor uncommon, but I never see anyone do it.
Are you on stock tune? I have a similar exhaust on my bolt on stock tune and it pops a lot on decal like yours, I read that means it’s leaning out and can damage the engine have you had any issues?
It’s stock tune. I had my exhaust for about 16,000 miles without a tune. Had an aftermarket exhaust and aftermarket intake without a tune for about 10,000 miles. No issues at all. Bike is bulletproof. But I do recommend you get a tune. Ivan’s isn’t too expensive I hear good things about his.
Hi. If you have to choose what would you choose? Iron 883 or Yamaha Bolt? What is the feeling on the road with Bolt? Do you have any experience with Iron 883? Which one is the best for loud sound?
I’d definitely say so. I had a sports bike. Honda CBR 600RR and actually “downgraded” to this bike. I’ve had this bike longer than I have ever had any of my other 4. So it’s definitely a good bike. You can get one for cheap. 3-5k. And the engines can take a beating. I have a full exhaust and an intake. Never tuned it (don’t recommend) Almost at 15k miles. Only have ever changed the oil. 3 times.
I want to get my wife a low rider s that way she can join me on my rides..but this is a stylish bobber I heard about previous models being unstable at high speeds due to suspension issues..she sat on one at our local dealer and I fit her perfectly, wondering how it would do on the highway...
If you got the money get the low rider s. Main thing is the suspension is much better. But the mainnn thing is the LRS has 6 gears. Bolt has 5. Honestly I never did much highway riding. Because if doesn’t have that overdrive gear. My hands got numb. If I could do it over again I’d get the low rider s. I’ve never owned one but that’s one of the bikes I wouldn’t mind owning. My next bike is the fat bob though. LRS is a close second.
@@SmallButMightyx thanks for the feed back..I appreciate a good machine despite the name brand. I've owned a few bikes...looking for a bobber for my wife or softail frame that will fit her structure she's 5'4"..she fit comfortably on the bolt, still like to sit and feel the bikes out in person checking all options...my structure I owned few bikes with close foot controls, a straight up posture, suits me..I have trouble on front/stretched out controls due to the length in my legs...preciate the vid
@@carlostrujillo3854 both will be fine regardless. Bolt is an incredible machine. I’m at 17,000 and have only done 3 oil changes and 1 rear tire. Never changed spark plugs or battery. I’ve also ran it with a full exhaust and intake. I never put a tuner on it. That has been about 10,000 miles. The bike and engine is bulletproof. Good luck and definitely let me know what you end up choosing.
It burns you all the time. Eventually you’ll learn how to place your feet when you stop. Otherwise you’ll just get burnt. I do not have passenger pegs.
At 1:30, eat your heart out, Jess (her. two. wheels.)! I’m callin’ ya’, girl! Don’t, for a moment, think your Dyna holds a monopoly on that tune! Like I’ve seen, and have been disturbed by, in a couple of your videos!
I don’t have a tuner so mine doesn’t run as good. It’ll hit like 100 before I back off. And probably 110 miles in the tank. A tuner would help both of those.
Although I’m looking to get something else soon I do love the bike. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Buy used. You can get one in nice condition for half the price of a brand new one. That bike is a tank. Engine seems to be indestructible. I’m at 17,000 miles. 3 oil changes and one rear tire. That’s all. No spark plugs, nothing else.
I'm really glad I watched this, I was planning on buying some new parts to do the mirrors, I didn't realize it was as simple as just flipping the stock ones. It looks great! It sounds great too! Did you have to remove the passenger peg on the right side to fit the exhaust?
I want this to play at my funeral 😆😆 Sounds fuckin amazing! Btw, is there any way to put passenger pegs with this exhaust? Surely there's got to be a way.
@@SmallButMightyx Yeah I live in some apartments and the neighbors don't like my brothers Vulcan 650 (Two bros exhaust). Not sure if this is louder or not, but when I find out I'll let ya know :)
My c-spec has these on and I downtown and across from a cosmetology school; I can always hear them cover their ears and roll their eyes when I start my bike. Take that for what its worth lol
Worst bike I ever owned.the stock exhaust sucks.i cut it off and put a ground pounding short pipe on it.it sounds viscous.but it's a 80 ho.pos.its a 50 cc trail bike.

Interesting...
Jordan Joestar Hmm, could you make a video about it?
I do this as well, better than half clutching on some occasions. Might be jerky sometimes though :p
I do it on my semi truck 13 shift, never thought I could do on my bike, good idea, usually it shifts better when you don’t use the clutch
I do this too, it makes riding more fun. I do use clutch when downshifting tho.
Great sound on a good looking bike but ya gotta ditch the warning sticker on the tank.
I think it’s hilarious!
@@SmallButMightyx after reading this comment, I laughed.
@@jarcodolo8734 gotta loosen up a bit and have fun out there. It doesn’t all have to be so serious
does the sticker affect performance? such a simple thing lol
@@uvwevwevweonyetenyeubemuge4036 remove it for weight reduction
dude we have the same bike ! i was wondering, did you just flip the stock mirrors for that look? looks great !!

The audio recording is rather well executed. 👌🏻Would you mind sharing your audio recording techniques/gear? :)
Haha! Was not expecting to see Wichita when I clicked on this video. Small world.
Very small world. Thanks for watching!
Hi Deputy. Nice sound. Music to my ears. I will buy one soon.
Thank you for watching!

do you ever get burnt by the exhaust though or does it get annoying?
also do you have passenger pegs on or no
It burns you all the time. Eventually you’ll learn how to place your feet when you stop. Otherwise you’ll just get burnt. I do not have passenger pegs.
Where did you order this exhaust from? It sounds insane!
Thank you! I ordered it from Amazon. You could always order it straight from Bassani.
RevZilla also sells it
Nice sounding bike. Do you know any good adjustable brake and clutch levers for the 2017 bolt?
Yo whats up! Do you think the Yamaha XV950R Bolt 2017 is a good bike to start riding when I am 18 years old? Best wishes and nice bike man!
Definitely could be a beginner bike. Has enough power where you won’t get bored quickly.
Thank you for this I love you man.
No problem 😆
Do your mirrors hit your tank? I tried to flip mine and I couldn’t arrange them in a way that wouldn’t hit the tank
No they do not. Check out my mirror flip video. th-cam.com/video/7_8MKeYf9lM/w-d-xo.html
what setup did you do for your rear view mirrors? link if posable? thx

Dam here in Brasil We have only a few customs, Nice bike dude
Thank you!
thanks so much for this video. Best one on youtube lol
levi Hah, thank you. Probably also the only one for the Bolt.
is this aftermarket exhaust or did the bike come stock like this?
Aftermarket. Bassani.
@@SmallButMightyx appreciate it bro
hey,
what's the top speed and the fuel range ?
thx, great bike !
I don’t have a tuner so mine doesn’t run as good. It’ll hit like 100 before I back off. And probably 110 miles in the tank. A tuner would help both of those.
How do you like your Bolt now? Would you recommend it to be bought in 2021?
Although I’m looking to get something else soon I do love the bike. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Buy used. You can get one in nice condition for half the price of a brand new one. That bike is a tank. Engine seems to be indestructible. I’m at 17,000 miles. 3 oil changes and one rear tire. That’s all. No spark plugs, nothing else.
Think these bikes have enough power? 2up riding decent?
It has power for around the city. Never tried 2 up riding.
Around town it should be fine, but the gears are pretty short so I wouldn’t 2 up the highway
I've gone 2 up on the highway and I was able able go up to 100mph still. Total weight of the both of us was about 350lbs
@@someonenamedjack741 That’s impressive.
Sounds great! What type of mirrors are those? And where’d you get them?
Those are the stock mirrors. I have a video on how to get them like that.
My Dream Bike! thanks for posting.
Can you do a rev match downshift video?
Thanks!

Is that 222 lancaster
What is the price of this Nice cool bike
You can find them used for 4-5k.
Do you happen to stay in Texas
No I do not, hah.
How did you mount your phone?
With a ram mount. Now I use quad lock.
1 down 4 up?
Correct. 5 gears.
Sounds good
Thanks!
ok sound 👍
I am guessing the Mickey Mouse Ears on top of the handle bars are speakers, yes? info plz
That’s correct. They are BOSS speakers. You can check out my walk around video for an updated modification list.
Are these the stock mirrors flipped?
They are stock and they are flipped, yes.
I'm really glad I watched this, I was planning on buying some new parts to do the mirrors, I didn't realize it was as simple as just flipping the stock ones. It looks great! It sounds great too! Did you have to remove the passenger peg on the right side to fit the exhaust?
@@garrettgriggs7288 Thank you! The exhaust did not require me to remove the peg. It was a pretty easy install.

i want this bike :D
It’s a great bike! Buy used!

I want this to play at my funeral 😆😆
Sounds fuckin amazing!
Btw, is there any way to put passenger pegs with this exhaust? Surely there's got to be a way.
Hah, right? I think if you flip the pegs it will work. At least that’s what I read on some forums.
Do you have a tuner or flash
No I do not.
O cabo do acelerador está precisando de regulagem!!
Getting these on my bike, are my neighbors gonna hate me?
It’s a pretty loud exhaust. But it’s not as loud as some Harleys. I tend to let it warm up away from my house personally.
@@SmallButMightyx Yeah I live in some apartments and the neighbors don't like my brothers Vulcan 650 (Two bros exhaust). Not sure if this is louder or not, but when I find out I'll let ya know :)
@@Boltedderg This exhaust is basically a straight pipe. So it’ll be louder. I can almost guarantee it. TBR may be a bit deeper.
My c-spec has these on and I downtown and across from a cosmetology school; I can always hear them cover their ears and roll their eyes when I start my bike. Take that for what its worth lol
@@donjohn281 Yup. Sounds about right. I have to remind myself that I have a loud exhaust. After awhile I forget how loud it is.
That’s Wichita ks.
Looks like Lubbock tx
Worst bike I ever owned.the stock exhaust sucks.i cut it off and put a ground pounding short pipe on it.it sounds viscous.but it's a 80 ho.pos.its a 50 cc trail bike.
I had good luck with it personally. And it sounded good for what it was.
My guess is Texas
Quite like the bolt but that might be the worst dash of all time lol
Yeah it’s pretty outdated.
Speedometer is too mediocre.
It’s just a Harley Sportster clone. Yawn.
Glad you noticed!
