My city is so ridiculously dark (seriously, literally 1 street light per 1000 feet) so I put lights on my bike so I could be seen coming home at night. Huge difference, and they turn red when I apply the brake. Ive had people stop next to me and say that mod saved my life and I know it has.

I run LED glow on my bike. they are also tied in so when I hit my turn signals all the lights on that side of the bike flash with it and when I brake they all turn red. so it helps visibility alot especially when I am riding in to work early in the morning in the dark and people are driving like idiots. I don't turn them on during the day or anything though because that'd be weird.

My wife started riding this year. I am glad her motorcycle came with LED's. She is highly visible but cars still manage to pull out in front of her. She likes them. As long as we are not running blue or red we don't seem to have any issues.

You failed to mention the stupidest modification. You completely forgot the big wheel stretched and slammed bagger.

My first bike was an 84 Honda CB400. When I was across the state, the end of one exhaust pipe fell off and the interior baffle was coming out. So in true 18 year old squid fashion, I pulled it out and then got a hacksaw and did the same to the other pipe. That bike made a sound I can't describe....it set of any car alarm I get with 50 feet of. I let a buddy ride it and I could hear him coming back 6 minutes before he got there. I could only maintain that level of ridiculous for so long, I got a whole new exhaust as soon as I could afford it.

I always say if extended swingarms are such a great idea it would be an option from the factory. They get very, very mad when they here that. I do know a couple of people with bikes that are so fast that they actually modified their swingarms to help keep it down. Both of these guys are extremely knowledgeable about motorcycles and they put time and money into their builds. Both bikes don't have the common extended swingarms... just customized fabricated swingarms that look almost stock. I have seen 600s and 1000s that have a pipe and a Power Commander with extended swingarms. That is ridiculous.

Love the fact I got at least two of these don't do, on my bike...... Your right and wrong all at the same time my dude.... 😂

I dont know what Yammie is talking about. LED lights look amazing on motorcycles. I have them on mine and love it. Plus, it increases visibility. I have mine connect to a rechargeable battery pack. That way, they dont kill my battery.

Sorry, but not sorry, Yammie. LED underglow lights make sense from a safety standpoint as every little bit of extra light helps alert clueless cagers to your presence.

The stupid mods for a first-time biker to avoid, is all the mods your well-meaning friends suggest to you before the bike even leaves the dealership. Too many new riders spend hundreds of dollars in mods before they've even ridden the bike. Then when they decide that biking isn't for them, or that they bought a cruiser when they really want an adventure bike all those mods just deepen the financial hole they just dug for themselves. So ride the bike for a while and get to know it. Then when you're sure that motorcycling is for you, and you're sure that you've bought the right bike for you, then you can start choosing your own mods, based on your own experience, based on what you want, and based on what you think will enhance you motorcycling experience.

No one is trying to sell their custom painted The Very Hungry Caterpillar Gen 2 Turbo Busa. Resell value be damned, that bike is from the heart.

Lmao NOT stretching the Busa is freaking nuts🤣🤣who does that!?

All I got from this video is there are no bad bike mods and Yammie just needed to make a 10+ minute video for content revenue.

I cant decide if I want leather tassles or cheerleader pompom streamer things on my Tuono

Underglow is awesome, they have always been cool and will continue to always be cool. My generation couldnt live without led strips in our dorm rooms so you think we are gonna pass up the chance to have sweet leds on our bikes?? Yeah right xD

The overlength swingarm thing really cancels any want I have to buy the bike. It tells me the clutch on the bike has likely been beat to shxx. Plus, I would have to get another stock style swing arm and probably replace the chain and the sprockets to fix the Frankensteining of the bike. Bikes have enough challenges on the street being comfortable. Oversize swing arms just make it so you have to fight the bike to make it turn everywhere you go. Stock geometries come from a heck of alot of research. I'll stay with that.

Seems like more judgement than logic. Bikes themselves are for fun and not as practical as a car.

Fast and furious is the old we in the cyberpunk era them underglows ain't going no where

I think painting Punnisher skull logos in your bike deserved a specific mention. How many thousands of bikers have done that thinking they're the first?

Excessive Luggage, that or just the scooter box on its own!

Skull flesh light almost sent coffee through my nose snuck that right in there on me. Well Done

Terrible take on the underglow… I specifically installed a kit so that I’d be far more visible at night. Wearing high vis accessories doesn’t even compare when being seen at night, have fun wearing a vest and getting mistaken for a non moving road sign

This is a mixed bag, paint is personal preference and choppers are not all bad, if consideration is put into how it is built you can have a comfortable and reasonably well handling bike assuming you don't go too extreme. It is a nice style when done well. I agree with the over skulling being bad but this can also be good when done well.

Fog lights on a bike is a huge Win tho 😊

Yo, Yamster! You got any tip on what exhaust i should get for my CF Moto 650NK? Stock one is unpleasingly silent. Must be ECE certified, i live in Germany. They don't do well with stuff that gets shipped from China, been there, done that.

9:47 I mean I didn’t want a painted bike before but if I answer yes to both? 😂😂

Under estimate the power of a small 2 stroke. That is epic. Happens all the time.

Well, I didnt put on LED underglow, but I did put amber LED marker lights inside the side radiator exit vents on the side of my Ninja, because at night its too invisible from the side and its also legal. Thats a nice touch and looks good at night and enhances safety. My experience with underglow is they seem to fail in a short while, and why add things to attract attention from law enforcement.

Sorry man. L.E.D. underglow lights are still a popular thing absolutely everywhere. Skulls, crosses, spider webs, bullet's, etc..are super gay though.

The family violence scene was hilarious

As a guy who is waiting for some bar end mirrors to arrive, I want to mention that they are made for my bike and will be sturdy and awesome!

Bro you really called me out on the old truck with exhaust leak and a photo of my truck 😂

Just because a bike pops and bangs on decel doesn’t mean it has a fuel problem. Have you ever heard of a pear valve? It pumps fresh air into the cat to ignite unburnt fuel. It’s part of emission process. It still pops and bangs with stock exhaust it’s just not as noticeable until you put a slip on muffler

Agree with all, except paint. (all my bikes are stock paint) but I think that is more preference. Of course you are correct about selling it and losing value. Have a good buddy who painted his Ducati 916 in a piss yellow color, looked crappy. Couldn't get the worth of the ride back out of it. But while he had it he liked it. I could NEVER imagine repainting my Ducati anything other than Ferrari red.

I use LEDs simply due to visibility to others. Run them every time I ride, day, night, rain. ( I frosted the windscreen, so the entire screen, just GLOWS) It drops the "I didn't see you" situation considerably. It's not for the cool factor, it's safety for me.
