Hey yammie, how do you not realize that Josh is a Suzuki boy and therefore he is the best from the 3 to do squid stuff, aka: haulin ass on the drag strip.
Let me know next time you do this ill shoot over to texas and see how that purry gran turismo does on the V4S (Multistrada). It has the spoked wheels so I have like 4 more pounds of hp's
That Fire Blade really really really needs a Dyno tune. That flash tune unlocked the power but the bike was not actually tuned so the super computer brain inside thst thing is still not set up right. This is why I always say dyno tune is a must if you want your bikenat it's best.
This needs to be a regular feature on the ym channel. Once a month or so whatever bikes are in the stable get taken down the strip. Makes for a good video
I'm sure the CBR's safety features were kicking in. Should've tried turning torque to "0". My CBR will cut power in first if you give it too much with the systems on. Also, unless you had your ETV settings changed in the flash the bike won't go full throttle when you ask for it. Could've been going only 25%. The ETV table has to be changed to actually get full throttle on the newer CBR's.
It didn’t sound like they were using it. The only one that gave it any revs before taking off was Josh and you could see he went a lot faster because of it
I'm only up to Joshs first attempt & everyone else isn't giving it enough throttle at take off your taking off like your used to as if your at a stop light, the bike has launch control & wheelie control its designed to be revved to the max & then you let the clutch out slowly & the bike conveyors the rest, if it thinks you're trying to launch & you're not giving it enough power to do so it won't work well
Crazy coincidence that as you released this vid I was just about to run in my first ever drag race. It was a 1/4 mile on my 1982 Suzuki GS1100GK touring bike(completely stock with the full fairing and bags on). I managed to do a 13.9 @ 95 MPH after 4 runs.
I remember them saying years ago that they were inspired by creators like Fortnine and wanted to improve the quality. And slowly but surely, they're making strides. A few shots here look as good as anything on Motogeo, for sure.
Love the new format, also love the old format. A longer episode like this is fun once in a while, sort of caps off the episodes you've done with these bikes previously. Here either way, thanks guys!
Many youngsters don't know this but Josh's Suzuki GS1100E was a big step forward for Suzuki that placed them ahead of their Japanese 1100cc competitors. 4 valves per cylinder it had better low end and midrange than the other 3 mfgrs with the same top peak horsepower. Overbuilt to handle MUCH more power than stock. That Suzuki powerplant is the groundwork of the "Gixxer" powerplant.
We need more videos with Josh. Every time he looked at the camera with that smoulder I got a little weak in the knees. Also he was the only one who knew how to launch the bikes.
@@ChuckieFinzter No those ones use a cable clutch. though I do agree that it does sound like slipping though it without a clear view of the tach it could also be the audio breaking up with the wind.
@@silversoozookee2839 normal Indian performance vs. FTR 1200 performance are 2 different animals. They really understood the assignment and executed perfectly when it came to design and delivery
I thought launch control needed higher rpms and clutch dumps to take advantage of it????? I may be wrong.....shouldn't it have a rev limiter set for launch control too
You guys should do the drag strip thing more often. I'd have loved to have my '88 GSX1100F out there with you. My personal thoughts with the Fireblade are that it's got to be so high up in the rev range for the power to come on that it's going to bog every time at the revs you launched at. Either that or that exhaust and tune you put on it did more harm than good?? A stock Hayabusa (even an older one) with that great bottom end torque would have clobbered it. ;)
A prepared track is something totally different, it like these insane time you see out of cars now.... with a traction control ( that takes 3-10 seconds to set up at full stop) on a prepared drag - it’s why 5-100 is a real measure of speed.
I think the Honda’s bells and whistles are just too smart for launching on a prepped surface. But the silver lining here is you won’t launch then immediately loop it.
Thanks for the content guys! Seeing different videos with new ideas is good for y'all's ratings. Busa would blow all of them away if blade boggs out every time.
This might be an unpopular opinion but I'm not a big fan of the shift in format and "higher production quality". What made you stand out, Yammie, is your hilarious, crazy, and fast pace video styles; and I am not sure you would have a comparative advantage in this "show" type of format. Whatever you try, stay true to yourself; that's why we love you in the first place :-) Keep it up
I know it'd be a tall order, but it'd be cool if yall could attend one of Chris Moore's drag racing classes. I'd be interested to see you all grow in that discipline and see what kind of contents would come out of a collab.
Looks like I won't be selling my 1997 sportster any time soon. Best of 7.29 @98mph in the eighth and 11.62@116mph in the quarter. I suspect I might have a bit more seat time at the drag strip than you guys. Glad you guys had fun.
The Honda is doing that because you're supposed to pin the throttle and dump the clutch when using the launch control !!!! It does have launch control, correct ?
You don't launch the Fireblade like that!! 🤣🤣🤣 It is advantageous to read a few pages in the manual sometimes, or did you get the Fireblade without manual? Having Start Mode readily available in a street legal super bike is having an accidental 430 lbs bullet on intersections.
@@danlford You need to activate the Start Mode. Set to sport mode and press and hold Select up or down + Lap trigger. The start mode appears on the screen. See the manual p. 115-116
I think they mentioned something about the clutch. Get that clutch right and put a tuneup on it and that old Suzuki would have given any of those bikes a run for the money in the 1/8th.
GREAT video guys. Too bad not a 1/4 mile track. Super bikes need that extra 1/8 with the high 1st gear. I ran a 9.80, 148.8 MPH on my 2017 1299s Ducati. a real hand full without launch control. OH I'm 72 and weigh 175 lbs..
How is the turning radius? Do your hands hit the fairing when in full lock? I had a Ducati 848 and hated that I could not turn full left and right in slow maneuver situations. It took like a 4 point turn😆
I had my money on the Ducatti. Thats what happens when you get all that power with no restrictions. Imagine having 215hp and the bike just goes "hahahaha no."
Well…after this… I will… definitely trust manufacture’s spec sheets (especially the ones that don’t omit pertinent info) over some internet guy calling himself Yamaha noob with extreme bias towards certain brands. I believe that well established brands with integrity have more to lose printing false info then some guy on TH-cam🤔
You need some shorter gearing on that fireblade regardless of whether it's cutting power or not. ZX-10 and fireblade are both geared to the moon....they won't do 💩 at the drag strip with stock gearing. And yeah, I do know a lot about drag racing.
I LOVE MY 2007 CBR 1000rr… MINT JAPCRAP PERFECTLY STOCK minus the fender eliminator & flush mount turn signals… FACTORY CLEAN…! and It’s totally Fast enough for Me…! I’ve had it up to 161 and I never wish to go that fast on a street motorcycle honestly… I’ve matured since the days off making nitrous aspirated drag motorcycles and turbocharged death traps… I humbly enjoy My life now at a safe speed. I promised My new wife I’d never go over 150mph😂 The truth is you can die at 15mph… The objective is to not die at any speed…! Dear Bikelife… 🙌🏿🙌🏻🙌🏾
Now I’m more of a car guy that likes bikes but in a car a lot of times you need to turn the traction control completely off for hard launches. Just a thought
The runs the GS did the clutch was slipping unless he was what we call riding the clutch here in Europe , Would be interested to know who did the flash on the Blade ? because there is something wrong with the setup if you had it on the Dino after the flash this issue would have shown up , i know of no other US spec SP that does this after a flash along with all the other goodies ..
Launches were way too low rpm and / or not enough clutch slippage. I learned on an H 1 back in the early 70's that had no bottom end and no nanny controls. The Honda would need a lot of rpm and no mercy on the clutch.
Can someone explain why they are launching at 1800 rpm and not 5k ? Will it rip the bike out ? Will it destroy the clutch ? Will it break traction and not get it back ? Will the ecu just cut all power ? ???????
i thought maybe it was abs or traction control stopping it from launching. but damn i love seeing her rip down the strip. hitting over 110 in 2nd gear. i’m stiff 😂😂 please and please leave her the way she is. so magnificent. and also please stop hitting the bikes with hammers and rubber mallets. my heart is hurting everytime i see that

Hey yammie, how do you not realize that Josh is a Suzuki boy and therefore he is the best from the 3 to do squid stuff, aka: haulin ass on the drag strip.
Do you think the tune was the problem on the fireblade?
Impressive production, like a MCM video.

@@cgrim71 no, the riders didn’t know how to do a speed run on a very powerful bike. It was user error, not the the bike’s fault 🤦🏼
We're almost to 1 million subscribers, I can almost hear the fury of that Turbocharged Hayabusa!
Lmao I know right....
The videos are up and unlisted... Just a matter of time
@@yammienoob Did you drag the fireblade against the turbo busa?
TUUUURRRR BOOOOOWEEEE HAAAAA BOOOOOSSSAAAAAA
No Busa on the dragstrip? I want a Busa!
Damn the production of YN has come a long way, almost like a regular tv show on this one! 👍
Ger ready for more - we're just getting started
This feels like it has a full production crew, like motor trend.
That Fire Blade really really really needs a Dyno tune. That flash tune unlocked the power but the bike was not actually tuned so the super computer brain inside thst thing is still not set up right. This is why I always say dyno tune is a must if you want your bikenat it's best.
Ima need to see the hidden footage of the turbo busa drags when we get to 1 mill subs. At this point I’m about to start making shell accounts.
I wonder if it's a glitch in that ECU flash on the Fireblade that's causing its launching problems.
... or if the bogging is a safety feature and needs to be unlocked.
Needs to turn off the safeties
@Lex Man it aint called noobie for nothin, the real dragster guys were laughing and still are specially at the fat guy with the girly hair
@@CaptainJacksIsland
Not enough EXP, yet.
You know its serious when spite's wearing an Race Suit
Thanks for the reply Nespresso
This needs to be a regular feature on the ym channel.
Once a month or so whatever bikes are in the stable get taken down the strip.
Makes for a good video
Josh's reaction to the Ducati was pure joy, couldn't help but grin!
I'm convinced that Josh is only worrying about sending it while the other two are worried about a perfect launch
I'm sure the CBR's safety features were kicking in. Should've tried turning torque to "0". My CBR will cut power in first if you give it too much with the systems on.
Also, unless you had your ETV settings changed in the flash the bike won't go full throttle when you ask for it. Could've been going only 25%. The ETV table has to be changed to actually get full throttle on the newer CBR's.
We need a video where you try to sort out the CBR's launch control. The GSX-R1000 launch control works miles (pun intended) better than that.
Their Tuono factory also has launch control and shorter gearing…wish they had taken it
It didn’t sound like they were using it. The only one that gave it any revs before taking off was Josh and you could see he went a lot faster because of it
@@DarkestVibez it still bogged like crazy, that engine has way more power than that
Josh is the most effective drag racer on this channel, makes you wonder what Josh is doing outside of the shop lol
I came in the comment section to find a comment like this, was thinking the same thing
Josh should be part of the videos more often, and I love that his bikes aren't all new and high tech.
Josh has all the YEET energy of squids lol
Same feels @tim
I mean I was surprised, because papa yam is the best circuit rider, but holy cow it was cringe how bad they were except for josh.
I'm only up to Joshs first attempt & everyone else isn't giving it enough throttle at take off your taking off like your used to as if your at a stop light, the bike has launch control & wheelie control its designed to be revved to the max & then you let the clutch out slowly & the bike conveyors the rest, if it thinks you're trying to launch & you're not giving it enough power to do so it won't work well

Love the production on this video. More like a "show" and less like a vlog.
I remember them saying years ago that they were inspired by creators like Fortnine and wanted to improve the quality. And slowly but surely, they're making strides. A few shots here look as good as anything on Motogeo, for sure.

Is it a hydraulic clutch?

Good job boys and girl behind the camera. Excellent video👍🏽 more please
We need to see the drag racing of the indian versus a Ducati diavel, that will be crazy.
One of my buddies at my old job has a diavel
Crazy bike
I've ridden a few Indians
Not sure they could perform the same
@@silversoozookee2839 the usual indian can't keep up with the diavel, but that one in the vídeo maybe can do something close.
@@silversoozookee2839 normal Indian performance vs. FTR 1200 performance are 2 different animals. They really understood the assignment and executed perfectly when it came to design and delivery
when you hit a mill does motor trend send over the show contract? There needs to be more motorcycle content on motortrend
I thought launch control needed higher rpms and clutch dumps to take advantage of it????? I may be wrong.....shouldn't it have a rev limiter set for launch control too

It seems like he was launching around 4K rpm which isn't a abnormal rpm for 1000cc bikes. It really seems like a traction or wheelie control issue.
Hearing Josh have so much fun was truly entertaining! Awesome video, and well done folks!
Yammie boy you come a long way since the r3 days, can't wait for you to finally hit 1 mil 🥳🥳🥳
💯💪 GREAT VIDEO YAM WE NEED MORE DRAG VIDEOS WITH YOU GUYS💪💯
This video just goes to show. Everyone *THINKS* drag racing is easy and requires no skill, but it isnt
Drag racing cars is easy, bikes? Not so much.
On motorcycles yeah, it’s hard, automatic cars not so much
@@Minecraftlol18 depends how much power the car has honestly. Over about 12 secs nah it's easy, sub about 9 or 10 it becomes a lot of skill.
A prepared track is something totally different, it like these insane time you see out of cars now.... with a traction control ( that takes 3-10 seconds to set up at full stop) on a prepared drag - it’s why 5-100 is a real measure of speed.
EvErYoNe
the traction control really sounds strange 😂 my bike comes with an old fashioned tc ie. not enough power to spin the rear 🤣
I think the Honda’s bells and whistles are just too smart for launching on a prepped surface.
But the silver lining here is you won’t launch then immediately loop it.
Thanks for the content guys! Seeing different videos with new ideas is good for y'all's ratings. Busa would blow all of them away if blade boggs out every time.
Yam: I almost had you bro...
Josh: [Insert Dom Teretto line]
Yam: cries on way home from strip
"you never had me.. You never had your busa!"
You can’t beat the CBR’s…. Traction/launch control out of it like that Yammy.

Damn the tempo in the intro was perfect. You were almost singing
We need more of this when that turbo busa do 400HP
Yoooo one of your best videos so far!!

but but where is the God Damn Hayabusa! That's where it lives!
Right?
Bike is turbo'd and can't be revealed until 1M
Yam, you son of a gun. That's the only acceptable reason. You get a pass...for now...
Spite in leathers just made my day XD. Thanks Spite!
Hell yeah, I've been waiting for a video like this.
That Indian FTR is just a remarkable bike!
The sound of that FTR is something to behold.
So is the price 😬

Seems like the clutch on that Suzuki was slipping.
I heard it too
I think they mentioned something about the clutch. Get that clutch right and put a tuneup on it and that old Suzuki would have given any of those bikes a run for the money in the 1/8th.
There must be some electrical or mechanical limitations so you don't loop the Fireblade on a launch
Does Josh like swimming in the ocean? Because his spirit animal is definitely a squid xD
Put a new clutch pack in the 1100E and run it again. Should blow the doors off the others.
Awesome video Yammie, keep it up 👍
you kinda gotta redline the firreblade and ease the clutch to launch this thing haha
omg this. this is what i needed. feed my squid demons ❤️❤️💯💪
Yammie you should do a comparison on the CBR500r and CBR 650r can't find any on TH-cam
GREAT video guys. Too bad not a 1/4 mile track. Super bikes need that extra 1/8 with the high 1st gear. I ran a 9.80, 148.8 MPH on my 2017 1299s Ducati. a real hand full without launch control. OH I'm 72 and weigh 175 lbs..
Where's the busa?! YOU GOTTA DO A BUSA VS R1 LAUNCH & DRAGRACE
Please please PLEASE throw a new clutch in that poor old Suzuki!
Yeah I also heard some clutch slip
How is the turning radius? Do your hands hit the fairing when in full lock? I had a Ducati 848 and hated that I could not turn full left and right in slow maneuver situations. It took like a 4 point turn😆
No show for Kawasaki, so its inconclusive. But mighty fun anyway.
I had my money on the Ducatti. Thats what happens when you get all that power with no restrictions. Imagine having 215hp and the bike just goes "hahahaha no."
You gotta launch the cbr at 10k or more rpm. Thats why it’s bogging on you. You should know this
The production value shot wayyyyyyyyyy up! PROPS YAMMY!
Well…after this… I will… definitely trust manufacture’s spec sheets (especially the ones that don’t omit pertinent info) over some internet guy calling himself Yamaha noob with extreme bias towards certain brands.

I always thought drag races were quarter mile, not eighth mile.
When did that change?
1/4 mile is the most common track length for drag racing though other lengths such as 1/8 mile and 1/2 mile tracks are out there.
I guess the Busa is all turbo'd up already since it's not in the video.
That turbo busa deserved the drag strip!
You need some shorter gearing on that fireblade regardless of whether it's cutting power or not. ZX-10 and fireblade are both geared to the moon....they won't do 💩 at the drag strip with stock gearing. And yeah, I do know a lot about drag racing.
on the fireblade the power and is in the top end launch at higher rpm and it’ll hook
it prolly wont wheelie hard in track mode. that's prolly why it cuts the power, so that you dont lift the front end coming out of a corner...
How is the Busa not in this video? Should have had that over the Sumo.
Oh my gooodd, it's happening. It's happening. EVERYBODY STAY CALM!!! STAY CALM!!!
Why didn't you use launch control on the cbr? Also, from what I've seen, only yammie actually uses the quickshifter
Launch control sucks
@@monkmoto1887 whatever they were doing could not be worse
We tried on several runs - did not work
I think the clutch on that 1100 shit the bed or lost traction, I think it could have done better

I hope there is a hidden turbobusa segment in here to be released later
The fire blade sounds like marge Simpson making motorcycle noises
Launches were way too low rpm and / or not enough clutch slippage.
I learned on an H 1 back in the early 70's that had no bottom end and no nanny controls.
The Honda would need a lot of rpm and no mercy on the clutch.
Josh needs some glue to keep that front wheel down :D
The Indian seems like a solid bike snd it sounds amazing
im sad we dont get to see Yammie's daytona 675 race bike (or the busa for that matter)
Can someone explain why they are launching at 1800 rpm and not 5k ? Will it rip the bike out ? Will it destroy the clutch ? Will it break traction and not get it back ? Will the ecu just cut all power ? ???????
Just took my 04 kingpin to the drags for the first time. Ran a 12.89 in the quarter
Gorgeous fireblade, it is a dream motorcycle. It is my dream
Josh almost yeeted the 1098
i thought maybe it was abs or traction control stopping it from launching. but damn i love seeing her rip down the strip. hitting over 110 in 2nd gear. i’m stiff 😂😂 please and please leave her the way she is. so magnificent. and also please stop hitting the bikes with hammers and rubber mallets. my heart is hurting everytime i see that
The clutch on the Suzi GS was SLIPPING BAD! Listen to it!
gotta launch higher in the rpm's and use the clutch more to launch instead of the throttle
Engine brake on the Indian sounds beautiful.
Good vid lads. Well done Josh!
