MotoGP Explained | Differences between a MotoGP & Road Bike 

"Don't ride a MotoGP bike on the road." I don't think anyone watching this video has to worry about that part.

Crazy the differences between MotoGP to regular vs F1 to regular. MotoGP almost makes sport bikes seem like the same thing with cheaper components, F1 seems like a space program compared to a car.

I think the biggest difference is that a Moto GP bike is almost 50kg lighter than something like a Honda RR (157kg vs 200kg) and produces something close to a rumoured 300bhp per litre which is just insane even compared to a super sports road bike.

Explained in a way even my mom and dad could understand. Well done.

The biggest difference is tires, weight (every component is designed with weight and center of gravity), and longevity of parts. Street bikes are made to last, MotoGP bikes are a ticking time bomb

F1, MotoGP, Indycar and NASCAR fan here. Loving this

Well the engines do have pneumatic valve systems though which allows for higher revs. The seamless gearbox might make it to road bikes eventually, I think Ducati is in the process of getting it there.

I love this! I understand it’s made for people who don’t really understand bikes, but it’s fun to see still even if you do! I actually didn’t know the exhaust was without a “muffler” as I thought at the ends they all had some very basic version that was still considered a muffler, even though it was straight through like an SC Project CRT can or something similar made just for them! Interesting!

I've just started getting into bikes and honestly I didn't even know there were differences. Like I didn't even realize there's no headlights. This is so helpful for me.

loving the content ,keep it up,only started watching from last season but these types of videos definitely helps a person get hooked

The full fairing makes it hard to cup the rocker cover in your gloved hands at traffic lights on a cold, wet day. For UK riders that is a most necessary part of motorcycle functionality.

Man that's a pretty solid run down of the basic differences. Good stuff

Damn, I’ve been riding my MotoGP Bike on the road, thanks for the heads up!!

Amazing explanation! Please make a Netflix series for MotoGP similar to F1 !! We would love that ❤️

Awesome and valuable information about the differences between the two finally answered! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you for the explanation.

Saya sangat suka penjelasanya. Terimakasih.. salam cinta dari Indonesia ,🥰👍

Could you please do a video explaining the TV graphics? The little blocks on the race positions, flag colors, etc..

Luar biasa kinerja motor MotoGP ❤️👍🙂🙏😇

This type of video will grow the fan following of this sport. This type of video I was looking for when I first started watching motogp.

Differences between a MotoGP & Road Bike Me : Price...

Best part of this video are the last 5 seconds of it :) Nostalgy...

Nice clip at the end 😊👍🏻

Love the explanations

A good information, thanks a lot.

Surprisingly informative.

Tambah pengetahuan tentang motogp dan motor jalan

Short & Sweet punchy insight

What an amazing explanation. You don't need to know anythkng about bikes to understand everything he said

Him: "Don't drive a MotoGP machine on the road, I think the police will stop you" That one guy who drove a Formula 2 car down a Czech highway twice: "Allow me to introduce myself"

Great Production!

sir explained so calmly and easily.

Thanks for the information 🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🔥🔥🔥🔥

Love to know true bhp figures for moto gp machines.. if its true and they are nudging 280-300bhp that's pretty exceptional from a 1 litre N/A

3:12 A Motogp chasis has one S. A road bike chassis has TWO S. I have learned something today! 🤣

I can tell you one MAJOR difference I don't have one 😂

“I think the police will stop you” more like you’ll choose to stop for the police...

3:15 Ahh I was just about to head onto the road on my MotoGP bike when he said that. Guess I won't :(

Nicely done... but I think they "brush" over the fact that when you combine the lightness, carbon fibre, brakes, etc etc etc it produces the absolute missiles we all get to enjoy tearing up the race tracks! The sum of all those changes makes them very different to road bikes!

It'll very interesting to see the same video but a WSBK version

Superb Explanation Video. General Knowledge Gained. Thanks For Sharing The Video. 🏍️ 🔥

Thanks

Also rear break is engaged through the riders thumb not foot.

I painstakingly converted a Yamaha YFZ into a track bike and thankfully my country allows us to ride them on the road as long as they have lights and a license plate. The only people who REALLY notice the difference between my bike a normal street bike are other bikers. Everybody else just thinks it's a typical sport bike and asks "How many cc's is that?". I spent the value of the bike converting it into a track machine (suspension, braking systems, electronics, upgraded ceramic block, etc etc) and the biggest difference between mine and a Moto3 bike is the weight. Moto3 deliver similar outputs at half the weight, it's insane. And he's so spot on about the tires, that's something you only notice once you've used slicks... but the difference between the Pirelli Moto3 slicks and the SuperCorsas might be 3-5 seconds a lap. They're so much more forgiving and can let you get so much deeper into a turn at speed.

Amazing

TBH i am really impressed at superbike standard nowadays, to think that beast could go above 300kmph and street legal that just insane. If only i have riding skills and balls of steel as GP riders so i can ride as fast as it meant to be, i am sure i'll have it one in my garage

Wonderfull..MotoGP 2022 Mandalika Indonesia I Like..🤣👍❤️🤣🇮🇩

The visualization of the braking caliper 😂🤣

The only rules that I adore in MotoGP is that manufacturers can either choose inline 4 or V4, which such rules cannot (or would not) be implemented in F1, and albeit the different engine construction, they're still evenly competing!!!!

Very general. Like to know the trade secrets!

That ending😂

Dope info

he's right..."don't try motogp bike on the road, the police will stop u..." 🤣

3:15 yeah agree 😀👍

3:15 Red Bull: Hold my beer.

How about actual power output, actual weight of the bike, actual electronic assistance like having variable engine mapping linked with GPS to change during a lap of a circuit to suit different corners and straights? This video could have a more technical version.

“The police will stop you” 😂 LOL 😂

Wao...motogp

thanks

There are not many riders that can ride a bike like a R1 to its capabilities on a street and you are doing several times the speed limit then. The bloody thing breaks most speed limits in 1st gear :P Its kinda amazing the average Joe can buy such a machine for the cost of a small car!

I like him, let’s have more of him talking about stuff

I think he left a very important aspect; weight distribution - I believe the gas tank is under the seat and under the faux "gas tank" is where the electronics are? Scott Redding said something to the effect that Motogp bikes are so different that they shouldn't be called motorcycles; if anyone can explain this further please fill me in...

Alex rins luar biasa 💥

Alex Rins should give it more. Please ride it fast whatever of the condition of the tracks. I support Alex Rins and Joan Mir for the next races.

Wait no muffler?

Semakin banyak orang Indonesia yang isi coment tentang moto GP saat ini. Wow Indonesia no 1 kepo in the world!

An price comparison would be nice

3:15 "they would TRY to stop you"*** :D

Mantap 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

really good explanation by the dude even a 5 year old can understand

What is the gearbox upgrade called?

The engine is geared more for performance than longevity. You won’t be doing any cross country trips without having replacement engines ready along the way. The brakes are carbon ceramic even in the wet as teams run covers. They need to be brought up to temperature before having consistent stopping power. Something highly impractical for the average street rider. The clutch is also dry as most (Ducati street bikes being the notable exception) street bikes run a wet clutch. Motogp bikes don’t use a kick stand, starter, mirrors, brake and signal lights and have a myriad of buttons on the handle bar vs the more basic buttons on a motorcycle handle bar. The subframe is bespoken for the rider, if your torso is long the subframe will be taller. If you legs are stubby the pegs will be higher.

Nice

Great video, but guessing from Motogp and road bike is the price tag! Looking at millions compared to thousands of dollars/euro's. Plus if you crash you don't have a team to fix your bike and in few hours compared to a normal mechanic.

what about the holeshot device??

This channel must added the subtitle

Awesome and amazing and I like my name is marcus Craig king from Haverfordwest south west wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

They forgot one of the biggest visual differences? No Mirros

I think this guy was really underselling the differences. Next they should do a video telling us how an F1 car and a street car are similar since they both have engines, transmissions, four wheels, brakes, and suspension.

The really big difference is actually I think on the electronics which he didn't want to publish. What does the electronics do to the bike, does it only involves sensor, or does it aid it any riding performance? So much to tell for the electronics.

Thats why i love moto gp bikes because it has no limitations and super loud i really love that

Marc Marquez doing a burn out with a GP bike on the streets of Indonesia 😂😂😂 Honda riders forgot this line "don't ride MotoGP machines on the road"

I love when people try to say they got a factory bike when they don't understand what that actually means. I don't ride motorcycles but even I know the odds of you driving a factory bike on the street are basically zero

Professional riders in MotoGP doesn't really need the rider aids you usually see in Road Bikes because they're there to compete with the skills they honed for years without those technology.

Yeaahh the best!

They forgot to mention one of the biggest differences; the backwards spinning engine crank.

fuel consumtion compared to road bike?

WSB is much more interesting racing wise at moment. Last few years since Toprak landed have been brilliant. Always followed MotoGP ,But! Getting fed up with all the tyre talk,it’s gone F1 for good sakes. WSB , for me . Really happy Toprak is staying ,we don’t need MotoGP, not when the racing is sooooo great in WSB. 😊👍

Moto GP does not have ABS? That would be absolutely crazy racing in the rain without abs got to have advanced traction control at a whole other level.

Mantap

What are the diffrences simple answer everthing.

If you wanna know what superbike is the best watch WSBK on the other hand MotoGp are like we can make the fastest machine ....

have to catch u first…🖖🏻🕊♥️🇨🇦

Where is coverage for world SUPERSPORT it's the class with the the excitement from the number of different MANUFACTURERS and DISPLACEMENTS 🏍️🏁

Explain difference between seamless shifting and quick shift autoblip that all litre bikes come with now?

Tolong ada terjemahan bahasa Indonesia 🇮🇩 thankyu #Motogp 😊

What about the aerodynamics??

3:15 The main lesson is: "Don't try the MotoGP machine on the road. I think the police will stop you 👍"

why no brake light or ABS?

no starter motor? no big starter battery? has to be started on a special stand. im missing these critical differences aswell.
