Apart from installing the heat shield kits, it'd help a lot to uninstall the catalytic converter and run straight pipes. The converter generated so much heat also but this is a pricey solution.
thanks so much for posting this. I just got my bike and rode up the coast in traffic and it was so uncomfortable on a cool day, I can't imagine on a hot day let alone a track day in the desert.
Dave Moss can charge double, and it would still be a great value for money.... You get to ride the two MVs with the new Ducati in the garage? Ride safe, love your content
Lovely video ❤ i ride my 2018 cbr 1000 rr as my commuter , for canyons and highways. Ergonomically my body is acclamatized to my bikes riding triangle and ive done 30000 kms in crazy chaotic india. I just love the peace , happiness, freedom i get riding my blade and trust me it is keeping me physically fit and healthy and i have a good body form and strong core muscles. All thnks to my cbr ❤
Yeah, I've been busy finishing my house remodel so I had to take a break from YT. I'm back on it now though so stay tuned. Trying to pump out as many videos as I can before the end of the year. 💪
Yeah, I had to take a break from YT to finish my house remodel. But I'm back on the editing grind now so I'm trying to post a bunch of videos soon. I'm almost a year behind in my editing! One of the upcoming videos is my last BIG road trip. It's been a monster to edit all that footage but I'm making progress. The F3 is good - so far - since I got the new engine. Just one minor problem with the coolant tank that I got fixed right before the warranty expired. About 18k miles on it (10k on the the new engine). Stay tuned! 😎
Sorting your suspension for your weight and riding style is the best thing you can do for your bike, even the standard units can be made to feel trick 👍🏻
Dude - this is exactly what I'm planning at the desmo service. So happy to hear your experience was positive to reinforce my decision on a 21 Panigale V4 base model. Are you going to get to the track soon?
For sure. Base V4 is the way to go if you plan to do a bunch of mods. Hoping to make it to the track at some point in the next year. Trying to work it out with my schedule. Fingers crossed!
Meh. It's OK. People have said it looks like a Chinese knock-off of a Ducati. Can't really argue with that description. It is slightly faster on track though, so there's that. But I feel no need to rush out and buy the new model. I'm good! 🤣
Yes, people have asked me that one so I'll be posting my V4 vs. V4s video right after my next video. But basically, I just wasn't into most of the upgrades on the V4s. For the difference in price between the two, you can do A LOT of cool mods on a base V4. Stay tuned for that video if you want to hear more.
Thank you for recognizing the Honda RC51. I used to have the 2003 RC51 aka the Duc killer. Many say the best WSB race of all time is when Edwards (Honda RC51) defeated Bayliss (Ducati) at Imola in 2002 on that motorcycle. I thought Honda would improve and build on the RC51, but they discontinued it after 2006. It was not the fastest motorcycle in stock form, but it was probably the most fun motorcycle out of the 13 sportbikes I have owned. Another amazing video from you, thank you.
Road tripped my V2 from SLC to Denver last August. What an unforgettable experience; mainly for the challenge it was, but oh so much fun! Love the trip videos with your V4. Looking forward to more! 😃
Sounds like a great trip! I’m thinking about doing a trip up to Denver from LA in the future. Been finishing some work on my house so had to take a break from YT but I’m back to editing so I’ll have a bunch of videos uploaded soon so stay tuned! 😎
It might help. I’ve also heard that upgrading to titanium headers reduces the heat too. Luckily the heat shield kit helped quite a bit. No more melted legs. 🔥 🔥 🔥
I have a ‘22 but at the time they hadn’t come out with the ‘22 version yet so I bought a ‘20/21 kit. It’s basically the exact same as the newer kit. The seat shield pattern is just cut a little different but the difference is not meaningful.
Got the same error on my F3 675 half way on my three hours trip. I got so worried that I might ruin the engine. Thanks to RU-vid, I continued with my trip without less worry...
Oh no. Snapped valve? I’d start with eBay. F3s are sometimes wrecked and you might get lucky. Then I’d check the forum : mvagusta dot net. Again, maybe you’ll get lucky and someone is sitting on a parted out bike. Finally - depending on how much effort you want to put into putting it back together - I’d try a salvage site like Copart for a wrecked F3. They pop up every few months. And you can part out the rest if you have the patience. You’ll save a lot that way. Good luck! 👍
Amazing video! Maybe I missed it, but did you have any luggage or wear a backpack? I just did an 1,100 mile road trip on my street triple and I learned a few lessons too. Honestly, I didn’t realize how close I was to heat exhaustion until I stopped and bought a cold drink with ice. A man told me, “Hot day for a ride.” It kind of pissed me off and I kept riding.
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video! Yeah sportbike road trips in the heat are a challenge! Definitely learned a few lessons for the next trip though! I travelled with a backpack because I don’t like that feeling of extra weight hanging off the bike. And that forces you to pack light. If you check my videos I have one detailing everything that I packed for the trip. 😎
@@amv_moto I sincerely appreciate your reply and I learned a lot from you too. You are a most impressive and ambitious person. I watched and enjoyed all of your videos. Please make more!
DONT BUY ANY MV AGUSTA!! Sprag clutch, stator and bearing are junk and go out every 2yrs. And the fuel tanks are plastic crap! Even with no-ethanol race fuel they expand and contract, causing the paint to crack, deformation and fuel leaking. Every 2yrs these are gonna cost you about $5000 USD to fix!
What did you do about your engine oil change? After break-in miles, you rode close to 3k miles without changing engine oil? what's the manufacturer's recommended engine oil change interval. Just binge-watched both parts because of your lessons💯 I have a road trip coming and I ride a BMW S1000rr Hp4 Comp so every tip is helpful! Thank you😊
The oil change interval for V4’s is 7500 miles (12000 km) so all I did was check my oil level occasionally to make sure I didn’t need to add any - I didn’t. Have a good trip with your HP4 - that sounds awesome! 😎
Husband and I took a roadtrip from LA to Denver, St Luis, Memphis, New Orleans, Houston, Phoenix and back to LA and you’re right, it took us an entire day just to drive through Texas. Never again!
Sorry the only one is the F4 1000…., the 750 is lovely…but the 1000 is awesome and great value …I have 2006 that I got for 8k …on.y 4k miles and mint. I also have a c2 zx9r, a TLS1000, and a 2023 z900rs…the MV the daddy
i wanted to know because im getting a v4 like yours ( with a remap full exhaust and a filter) hows the actual mpg. basically how many miles is within a tank. because i will go and bring ti home 500km away , if i go legal speed 60-80 mph how many miles should i see before the light comes on? and how the reserve light milage? 10-20? thanks
Riding 60-80mph on the highway, I think I'd get about 120-130 miles before the light comes on - if the bike is set to "Street" mode not "Sport" or "Race" mode. When I take my road trips I'm usually going 80-100mph and the light comes on at about 110-120 miles. The longest I've gone on the highway after the fuel light came on is 30 miles - reducing my speed to 55-60mph to save gas (and getting into a full tuck LOL) - before I got to the next gas station. I was sweating at the end because I don't think I could have gone much further! But if your bike has a full exhaust and remap, chances are you'll get a little less range from a full tank. Congrats on the bike - you'll love it!
I love the wings. How dare you! I have a V2 and want to upgrade to the V4s with the wings. I'm an R1 track rider for years on GP TRACKS. Since stepping into Ducatti, I can't go back to jap bikes, even though I loved my R1s
the greatest problem you guys have is your roads are boring and you're doing (based on your videos) highways almost the entire way, what's the fun in that!?
Glad you enjoyed the video! I didn't consider a ZX10r because I honestly think Kawasaki (like Suzuki) are not really invested in improving their sportbikes like Ducati, BMW, Yamaha & Honda are. For example, they're pulling out of WSBK next year - like Suzuki pulled out a few yews ago. Since that is the platform manufacturers use to improve their superbikes, this tells me they plan to put less & less resources into those bikes in the future. Ultimately, I wanted a cutting-edge superbike and I just think they're a few steps behind Ducati & BMW.
@@amv_moto So like what's regarding the reliability reputation getting demolished on forums. Like does that even makes sense??? I can trust you for these answers as you have completely shown what that beauty was capable of. Would love a reply, keep up the good work🙏👌👌👌👌🔥🔥Do give a review of s1000rr as well, would love to hear from you 🙏
