I'm assuming by "shifting speeds" you mean when the manufacturer recommend you select the next gear. This will vary from bike to bike depending on the engine, transmission, and final drive ratios. You would find the information for your specific motorcycle in the user manual that came with it.
For the same reason that cars have gears, to allow the vehicle to be driven at greater speeds.
Some motorcycles are slow! Of course, "fast" is a relative term. In general, motorcycles reach high speeds quicker than automobiles because they are very light in comparison, so even though their engines are not as powerful, the power-to-weight ratio is high. That is, each horsepower has fewer pounds to push. The fastest cars may have higher top speeds than the fastest motorcycles, however, because motorcycles have poorer aerodynamics. Generally, only very expensive cars are faster.
nope cause they're more dangerous at high speeds than motorcycles.
Yes, motorcycles can outpace cars in terms of speed due to their lighter weight and more aerodynamic design, allowing them to accelerate faster and reach higher speeds.
Motorcycles are faster than cars because they are lighter and have a higher power-to-weight ratio, allowing them to accelerate more quickly and reach higher speeds. Additionally, motorcycles have a more aerodynamic design, reducing air resistance and increasing their speed potential.
Motorcycles are not measured in amounts of horse power. The KTM SX65 2014 edition has a cc of 65. It has six speeds.
Most motorcycles have 5 speed transmissions although there are a number of bikes with 6 speeds including Harley's big twins.
A 1000 cc sports bike can reach speeds up to 190 miles per hour. Many different makers of motorcycles uses the 1000 engine.
Shifting on a motorcycle typically involves engaging and disengaging the clutch while moving through the gears. This is true for all types of motorcycles, including sport bikes like "crotch rockets." The specific shifting technique may vary slightly between different models and manufacturers.
Upgrading to a bike cassette with 11 speeds can provide smoother gear shifting, a wider range of gear options for different terrains, and improved overall performance and efficiency while riding.
