Hello PD, I am loving this series! A minor suggestion, the intro music is way too loud compared to Shumi's voice. It would be great if you could fix that. Nevertheless this series is a treasure trove to cherish. Thanks a ton!
Love your content. But I'd suggest for one small improvement. When you refer to some accessories or seating positing etc please display an image so it's easier for the audience to understand fully what you're referring to.
Like for example I had to pause the video and Google few of the stuffs you mentioned to fully understand what you're talking about.
Thanks for the tip!
Yes exactly i was thinking the same. When he was talking about some plates.. Still not sure what was that.
Petition for a video of riding gears from 2k (basic to high end )
How are they worth it .
Is it worth to spend on more High end brands.
We have a series on riding gear on our Instagram (@powerdrift)
It is 100% worth buying expensive gear. Check out fortnine videos, he explains why more expensive is better in riding gear
@@hrisikeshbhattacharya5467 I love him . Well problem is he does give only Canadian specific gears .
Not really a worry if are buying something like dainese ,Aria ,Alpinestars etc
@@powerdriftofficial Hey , i searched through the Instagram but couldn't find it. If possible, please share the link.
@@powerdriftofficial those videos are really great; but they only provide information on what to look for in riding gear (as in, mesh in a riding jacket). We would really love a video which actually mentions the price range starting at the affordable end. Because as things are, the desirable product characteristics mentioned in the insta video run in 10s and 20s of thousands of rupees and not everybody is willing to afford that. Thanks.
just wanna say thanks.
Learning a lot of things from you guys even though it's been 10 years now me riding.
Godspeed.
I really hope this channel helps grow responsible, sensible riders on our country. Great work as always.
I really love these podcasts along with the simplified series. These are very informative. Looking forward to more videos like these :)
Awesome, thank you! We hope you give them Likes and Shares.
Great video as always. Thank you for this PSA. I never miss them.
A suggestion : kindly include pictures of the discussed products or technique. A pictorial representation will go a long way in giving a sense of what you are talking about. I’m having to pause your video and jump to the browser to see the said product/fix/hack. I understand it’s a podcast, but a teeny weeny pic on any of the corners will illustrate your talking points better.
As always Shumi, you are great in explaining concepts with max details in crisp literature. Thanks.
I also had the same feeling of demonstration of technique and product glimpse
Exactly what I commented. :)
@@abhaychaturvedi650 sorry my friend. I should have seen it. But I’m glad that we agree that this will certainly help
I can listen to him all day long....getting such informations and the way hi presents everything is worth spending time on you tube..
Powerdrift and Shumi doing a great great job. Bringing out such small details is very informative. Learning a lot from your videos.
Hey Shumi you passionately explained the right Mentality to get into motorcycling. I really appreciate it.
The best podcast for riders. I love your style the way you talk all about bikes and biking its a sheer pleasure to listen. Thank you for guiding riders like us.
Thank you Shumi, this is a wonderful KT
There are many automotive channels on TH-cam, but what you have started @powerdrift with this simplified series is something different, something that many bikers need. it's the core of biking that you have identified, which just makes life much simpler.
One more thing, I am looking to buy a bike under 2.5 lacs, which will help me in dealing with the back pain that I have for the past 4 years. If you can suggest something that'd be helpful.
Thank you Shumi. As always you are the best. Could you have one complete podcast on riding sitting position? I know you have talked about it in several other videos, but one single dedicated podcast would give a lot of clarity. Thank you.
Good one. Love listening to your knowledge and pragmatic approach to motorcycling.
thank you Shumi !
Well said. Thank you very much. 👍
Amazing Stuff. Love this entire series. Kudos to the Powerdrift Team.
Lovely podcast once again. M not sure how but I would like to see ur 390’s heel plate to see what u have done to those 😊
See it on my Instagram! @shu_mar
Simple language and pragmatic solutions, as always. Thanks Shumi.
Awesome content. And superb presentation by our shumi ..
These simplified PD podcasts are very helpful. Great work. ❤️👌👌👌
I got this habit of liking PDs videos before they start ❤️
I know you make your podcasts for fairly experienced riders or riders who are not new in the business. I have been riding for more than a year, but when i bought my first bike with my own hard earned money, i had no one to teach me how to ride because no one in my family ever rode a bike before me. Such was the situation that I had to find someone else to ride my bike home from the showroom and learn everything from scratch by just looking at TH-cam videos . Since you are the best in the game , may be you could do one for the young hearts that look up to you on the very quintessential basics of how to ride a bike .
Hello @Shumi! Great video once again. Thank you for trying to make us better riders.
You became a Dhronacharya for most of the riders, plz keep inspiring 😍 and coming to podcast I have a little request if you giving an example of any product just pop up one related picture that gives more weight for the information, I know this is podcast but as you said we can do some alter to feel better😜
Thanks bro for the podcast 😊
Awesome content ❤️ Thank you for making us aware of things that one can only know at a school.
Gripping a motorcycle inbetween knees as pointed out in earlier videos has helped me a lot.. releasing the stress which otherwise I used to have over my shoulders... Now going around corners feels confident enough.. though I don't get my knee down 😀
Brilliantly presented!
Amazing video. The last point is what I will definitely try on my Classic.
Thanks so much for these Podcasts, every new podcast either brings me to something new or another perspective of looking into it. I believe implying these techniques could eventually make me a better rider and when I am going to look back maybe after 6 months or 1 year I would be much more skilled than before. Great video!!!
Ofcourse! You can also visit Shumi's riding school, TWO.
@@powerdriftofficial yah I have already visited.
Its so fundamental... And useful...
Thankyou sir..
Interesting topic. For visual engagement & understanding, would love to see such videos being made with motorcycles in play. Cheers.
It would be helpful if you guys start adding some pictures along with podcast. Will be really appreciated by us newbies.
Thank you so much for explaining the motorcycling... It is very much useful for beginners... Waiting more from 'GYANGURU'...
Thank you
Much needed knowledge ✌️
Do spread it out too! :D
Loved this
This was more helpful than I thought it would
So happy to hear that! :D
Schumi is the Milind Soman of the biking world! Never gets old never fails to make a point!
I don't remember ever disliking your videos. Thanks for the pointers Brother Shumi.. A suggestion though.. Please include visuals of the mods you recommend for better understanding by us.. Thanks
Can you make a video on genral bike Tips for on road fixes, like if the vehicle is overheating, or if the battery dies, or if in case of a puncture, maybe locked in one gear in middle of no where?
I know its kinda specific, but i was stuck on a highway once with an overheating bike,
Overall love the content Keep up
I do remember Shumi at our NETWORK TV 18 office Christmas Ride
Explained how to be in lane, risk on Charoti highway
Loadz of things to be learnt from him
if Shumi Sir had shown with some diagram or pictures it will be made it easier for the beginner or its just a simple work of the video editor
I have learnt many things from you about riding a bike. I would like to request you to make a video on how to handle accidents. Indian roads are full of surprises, and no matter how safe you are riding someone might ram into your bike from behind and things like that...
The question is how to tackle that accident? Some say stay with the bike, some advises leave the bike and so on.
So please make a video on that @Shumi.
We love you Sumi
Good, useful topic .. a couple of clips / visuals of the motorcycle adjustments discussed in the ‘podcast’ would have been great.
But then again, it’s a podcast 😁
True some brolls would've gone a huge way.
Wow🎯🎯 so much info shumi has to give out to us kids
Thank you Sir♥️👑
Another best experiences shared by pro keep it up 🔥🔥🤜🤛 powerdrift ❤️❤️❤️ love your podcast ❤️
Just gonna say it when it comes to PD DIL MANGE MORE MORE MORE 😜😜❤️❤️
I recommend powerdrift to show the parts about which he is talking about in this video.
Do make a video on various helmets available in India under various price brackets ie 10k,20k,30k.
Yes i would like to helmets in various price segments
Yeah waiting for this
This!
Would also like to get a video on begginer gear and what is the minimum one should spend on it (for off roading)
Most international brands are currently out of the Indian market due to a pre requisite that the government has added. It’ll take a bit of time for good helmets to be back in the market.
There are some Indian brands like Axor which make decent helmets, which maybe available currently.
Yes please
Shumi ji, make a video about luggage placements and securing it for long rides
Very good video. Learning a lot from these videos. One suggestion though -- could you please add more images or graphical representations on the concept. It would be easier to grasp the concepts if more graphical imagery was present. For example, when Schumi is talking about heel plates, it would have been better if there were some images explaining the concept.
HI Shumi, Please speak about technicality of saddling and science involved in it.
About the topic of gripping the bike properly using body parts below the beltline, it'll be great if you guys can come up with a visual demonstration. Listening to someone talk about it is insightful, but it'll be much more effective if we can see how to do it and refine our technique.
Make a Video on Brake pads and Brake Fluids which one would be good and better while braking the stock or modified
@powerdrift Pls make a video on superbike accessories. What and why is a good to have in accessories like Crash protectors, engine cover, Spolls, Radiator guard, tank grips, Levers etc.. I am getting a street triple and apart from radiator guard all other accessories looks useless to me. Crash protectors will not help in case of a crash above 30-34kmph and so.. Really need some balance inputs on this.
Please make a video on the tyre sealants for spoke wheels
Shumi, great video but may I suggest you put acrua pictures while explaining things like 'heel plates' that can give a much better idea of the message you are trying to convey. Thanks
I think heel plate is the metal piece attached to foot peg mounts to prevent the foot going inwards. Is it!!
podcasts are best .. they are like the best lectures ever... do keep making them.. Its really amazing to listen about motor cycling from someone as experienced as you..
Schumi, It might be naive question, but you see racers on track especially around corners they dont keep the knees glued to the tank, in straight they do though. I believe they take out knees to balance the bike while cornering some even take out the legs from the peg like VR 46. So what you said regarding holding on to the tank doesnt hold good while turning or cornering?
You will get there❤🔥
Nice content 👍👍❤️
Thanks a bunch! :D
Very informative podcast. Can you throw some more light on heel plate?
Is it worth to change a dual cable throttle for a quick throttle with single cable ?
Any side effects ? Also any brand recommendations for the same ?
❤️❤️good one
Thank you! :D
5 km destination/ origin is true as i had accident near my home and i became casual thinking that home is nearby and became overconfident and even removed my helmet and put it back side। Though it was a majour accident for which i got immediately got admitted and morning had to go for operation but my head had not collided with anything else it would hv been last
The point is "You will get there"!! Simple yet powerful 👊🏻👌🏼
i own a BS6 Honda activa 125, please tell what can, how can we make owr scooters fun, custom, and powerful/fast, will be waiting for this video shumi
Hi shumi sir, M little confused about when to get bike ceramic coated, like when it's brand new or after little wear n tear happen, at what point it is really worth doing?
Expecting answer in next podcast✌🏻
Those small details that change a overall ride...pls discuss about the ground clearance issue and how to tackle it..my D390 silencer takes a hit everytime i cross a speed bump..i was suggested to put iron skid plates, raise the GC by changing the suspensions..let me know if there is a way out of it... because everytime the bike hits..it's hits directly to my heart 💔
Set the preload to your weight, set correct tyre pressures, and slow down well in advance, open the throttle gently before the bump to uncompress the suspension.
I ride svartpilen 250 but I think the stock tyres creat fearful ride after 110 km / hr . What can be a good option for highways ?
can we get some help(tips & suggestions on how to ride, which bikes should they begin with and how to grow there knowledge and skills for motorcycling) for beginners
Awesome
Hey shumi, please make a video on your bike collection😂 really curious
diagrams and pictures along with ur narration would have made things more clear.but as usual v good podcast.
🔥🔥🔥🔥 video
Kindly please speak on cruise bikes Rides tips on what would be advisable
I am 6ft 3 and half of my favrt bikes which I can afford look tiny on me. The ones looking good are out of my budget. How do I tackle this.
I own a hness now, not because I love it but I don't look awkward on it. I love the Duke 200, R15V4 and the RE Twins.
I would like to suggest that if possible, please share the images of mods you have made on your bike in video while explaining that perticular mod. It's easy to understand that way what exactly are you talking about.
can anyone help me please with quick throttle for RC390 2015. which one I should get or what will be best approach.
Nice content ❤️❤️
Thank you! 😊
Hey Shumi, you talked about a motorcycling school you teach at. Suggest any in/ around the Delhi NCR area pl. Thanks!
Shumi ,you should start master class ..
Interesting. I am 6"1' with good inseam and only after renting multiple bikes I understood what the right ergos would be for my body.
On riding motorcycle I'm always in a rush to shift to top gear as soon as possible but when I see pov riding videos the rides always tend to stay on one gear and they hardly shift gears sometimes they don't even go 5th or 6th gear on twisties and some small road .......... So what is the perfect way shift gear and stay in rhythm while riding?
Select the speed at which you're comfortable. Select the gear that keeps the engine in the power band for that speed = the rev range at which the engine makes enough power to pull away, but doesn't lug either.
@@powerdriftofficial I'm reading this in shumi's voice 😂😂
Can we use fork seals on super sport, coz majority of dat are made for dirt bike
Need podcast on right techniques for cornering
How to improve motorcycle experience :
Step 1: Get a motorcycle
😂
Hi Sir, can I fit a quick throttle on Dominar 400? Thanks.
Hai sir, i am considering a front brake upgrade on my bs6 rtr 200, the braking itself is decent but it lacks that bite and lever feedback, that is the main reason. Im looking into a combo of ceramic brake pads + dot 5.1 brake fluid + steel braided brake lines. Iv managed to source the pads nd the fluid, but iam not finding a steel braided line specific for rtr 200. Pulsar 220 wala brake line fits but its short, and iv been told that KTM brake lines fit well , but nt sure whch ktm ie, 200, 250 or 390 duke. Can u please let me know if u have any idea regarding this
We'd suggest first start with what you have. Replace the brake line when it ages and needs to be replaced. Remember the adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
Are you serious? Rtr200 brake is not enough and not giving enough feedback for ? It's 200cc bike what did you expect.
Just use hydraulic brake levers if you want.
Whenever you say RTR 200, my focus increases on your words..😂
shumi..i will cry now.
after 105000 kms on my apache 180 communting now 128 kms for office commute today only my elbow and knees are hurting right now also. i have added seat foam few months earlier coz of its age. now i am will change handle bars because i always find after 8 years of ownership my body is not what it used to be. got a belly now
I have jawa 42 and I feel much heavier handle bar compare to other bikes. What can be the solution for this.
Very Informative. However, if some pictures or videos added in video it will be very helpful ☺️
❤️❤️❤️ PowerDrift
A little SUGGESTION... Please put some Pictures of the SPARES that you mention in your videos.. That'll be very very easy to understand.
Do a video on summer riding.
