Hey #PDArmy, what do you fill in your tyres? Let us know below and hit that Like button if you want to see more Simplified episodes.

I live in Bangalore and I use Nitrogen for my car. We spend about 50-100 rupees for 4 tyres (prices vary in filling centres) and honestly that works out to be a lot cheaper for me because most Bangaloreans tip the attendant 5-10 rupees for normal Air filling each time. And I have noticed that since the pressure in tyres with nitrogen remain A LOT more consistent, I have noticed consistently decent fuel efficiency. One of the most prominent advantages for me would be that I don't have to wait in the air filling line once every 2 weeks like I would if I was running normal air. (and these lines have got me waiting for over 10 minutes in some situations) TIME IS MONEY So I'd choose Nitrogen for my daily driver without much fuss.

Whoever from team PD has suggested this series, should get a hike What a simple yet informative series...

I had a 6-7 year old apache 160 rtr and had to drive totally 60 km daily for around 2 years to reach my workplace. I filled my tyres fully on nitrogen for few weeks and others I rode on normal air. (Nitrogen costs Rs 10 per tyre or 5 for just top up). Although, doubtful myself in the beginning I found marked difference in how Nitrogen filled tyres soak up bumps. They make a huge difference when you are riding for long distance on uneven roads. Big potholes are generally taken care by your suspension but minor bumps, small potholes etc are definitely less noticeable on nitro tyres. Again the difference might not be perceived by most people on short distances or if they expect even the big potholes to go unnoticed. ... but because, I did this testing for 2 years repeatedly on the same stretch of pothole filled uneven typical Indian roads week after week for such long distances, I can assure they do have an improvement of lets say 15-20% on handling. The rides are much smoother, the bike doesn't bounce sharply on rocks or bumps etc.

I've a friend, who still believes that nitrogen gives him better mileage 😂

So shumi this is what we read usually for nitrogen what's d take 1-that this air is lighter 2-Makes tyres less vulnerable to a punture. 3-Increases the fuel efficiency of the vehicle. 4-Keeps the tyres cooler 5-Let's u chk d air pressure less often Kindly guide🙏 Plus this new sessions are really great for imparting the correct knowledge to d riders..Kudos to PD army ✌️✌️😎

Finally someone in sync with me when it comes to use of nitrogen in tyres.....this myth is so rampant that people are not ready to listen even if you give them logic that nitrogen is not needed in your car which you mostly drive in city traffic and NOT ON A RACE TRACK !! 😂

Agree. Normal city riding conditions don't really warrant Nitrogen use. But say if you have to drive on cemented roads....case in point Yamuna Expressway, I guess Nitrogen is a better option? 2-3 Hrs of High speed driving is bound to cause considerable temperature variations.

I would like to disagree on this.. The major advantage is when you go for long ride like 100 to 200 km, tyre filled with air would have eventually 2 to 3 points higher pressure as air expand more due to heat than Nitrogen does. This increase in tyre pressure results in a bumpy ride at the end... But if you ha e nitogen filled in tge tyre pressure doesnt change after a long run... This i am saying from my experience of last 5 to 6 years of using nitrogen...

Perfectly explained Shumi! Thank you :)

Really good video Shumi! While the logic is bulletproof, I appreciate you having mentioned that Nitrogen does have its benefits, all the same. Personally, I prefer to use Nitrogen for the following reasons: 1. Very less quantity of water vapour and Oxygen (the best friends of Oxidation). 2. Tyres feel more stable (and a bit heavier). This may also be a con to some. 3. No need to fill frequently, or worry about faster deflation after a long ride. 4. Quite inexpensive for Motorcycles actually. (25-30₹ for each tyre at any Nitrogen pump in Pune. 10₹ for refilling both tyres.). Considering that Petrol costs well over 100₹ a litre now, 30₹ for a span of 3-4 months doesn't seem that bad.

Yeah! Checking tyre pressures and keeping an eye on the valve condition is more imp than filling nitrogen. Keeping the valve clean is important. I recently had an instance where my tyres lost preasure in a day because some minute dirt grain had gotten in the valve and the valve couldn't close properly.

Sir in our state we have free nitrogen in every petrol pump......so would u recommend using nitrogen since its free......and also could u explain why people say once u fill it with nitrogen u can't use normal air

I feel lucky to have come across this amazing channel and the kind of content that is posted regularly especially through Simplified where this amazing person breaks down concepts which as a bike rider I personally would not have known, had I not subscribed. Keep posting such useful videos to help making bike riding a smooth and easy to go for experience for everyone. ✌🏼✨

Thanks for confirming this. Just like everyone else even I used to fill nitrogen for a couple of years back in 2016/17. But the hassle of finding nitrogen enabled pump on long drives led me back to normal air. I just get it checked everytime I fillup gas ⛽️ and that’s about it. Simple and effective without any extra cost 😊

One of my good friend almost got me to fill nitrogen in my 4 wheeler. Thank you shumi sir you saved my 200 bucks. 🙏

Simply Loving this simplified series ! It’s a boon to the people who are new to the world of motoring :)

Loved this video from Shumi and team.. Want more on this simplified series from PD team.. Great initiative ✨

Do nitrogen play role in keeping tyre cool for continuous long highway stretch specially on a hot day of summer?

So finally got clarity... since we see big posters to say that to use N2.. For family car, Air filling is enough. Since we are already RACING our family... Hope for long journey, N2 is better...

These videos are so much informative. Kudos to PD!

Thanks Brother... You have explained very well.

Hey Shumi: I definitely owe you a cup of coffee for saving some bucks going forward. Thanks for this one!

Never ever stop this series... Loving it

Should we use NO2 in engine to increase its performance

First time SHUMI says cheaper solution is good then expensive 😂

Thank you n love you powerdrift. U guys are educating us like hell on things that ppl act to know coz it's so simple but we actually don't. Lol!!! No professors or engineers will explain things so simple and smooth to ordinary common pple. Thanks again

here are some personal experience with nitrogen *pros - tire pressure is on point most of the time - heats less in long trips - haven't experienced any punctures in 5 years (maybe as tire pressure is on point so things can't penetrate in it) *cons -while short rides from point A to B. as tire is mostly cold it offers less grip comparatively. please note i get a 300/- yearly membership at a service station and fill nitrogen after every 2 weeks so it does not cost much as filling air is 5/- for bike.

This series is getting better day by day.

O2 around 18-21% depends on pressure and altitude ... rest is moisture and Co2 etc ... totally agree with you for Air filling in tyres !! most of N filling ceters make money by sayiing its pure N but that is simple air comming from fancy compressor at filling stations and tyres shops ..... 100% agree with you

Please make video on gear ratio and knocking sound, benefit of Short gear and high gear..

Would you recommend Nitrogen on high-performance tires?

What a way to start my Sunday with the fav series 😎

Similarly can you please explain if it is worth using Power/speed than the regular unleaded?

Thanks a lot Guruji!! Much Appreciated!! You've annihilated nitrogen business in petrol bunks!!

Hey guys, really appreciate your effort and love you videos. Can you please make a video on modern electronic aids in bikes like imu based systems... Wheelie control and others such stuff.

I always use nitrogen when I am going out on long drives I mean anything ranging from 500kms and beyond that. Infact my long have been of 3500kms that too in couple of weeks and the experience has been good. Agree it's bit expensive but 200% peace of mind. For emergency I always carry a tyre inflator :)

Ohh Boi!!! This is one hell of a topic to discuss. Just because I did my UG on Mechanical Engineering, everytime I used to say this, major part of the group would say, "tu chup kar! Tujhe bada pata hai" 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️. Great work PD! Nicely done. 🙌🏻🔥❤️

This is nice initiative to simplify most general doubts in all riders.

Inertness of nitrogen also gives an advantage to the tyres as it would not react with other chemical compounds that would've mixed with atmosphere (like industrial chemicals coming out of a chimney) that would've inadvertently entered into the tyres. Again, not a strong point to support nitrogen over air but just adding to the features of nitrogen.

Shumi Bhai. Can you make a video on Xp95 Petrol (speed) and Normal Petrol? Whether we can fill xp95 petrol in 110 CC and will it perform well on 110cc scooter or bikes compared to Normal petrol.

Hawa ya nitrogen ??? This is the most confusing question I get it from air fillers. Thank you for sorting it so easily. We dont need nitrogen for daily commute.

Great info thanks. I dunno if it’s in my head, but I feel that the road noise inside a four wheeler is reduced when running nitrogen. Could there be any truth in this?! Or am I just making peace with myself for the cost and effort of regularly using nitrogen😋

Hi Shumi. I am continuously using Nitrogen as it is freely available in my city.

Practically, I’ve experienced that tyres filled with air will show a very high pressure after a long run (due to expansion of air by temperature) which is very low in tyres filled with nitrogen. That’s why I prefer nitrogen filling for long rides.

Benefits after using nitrogen in my bike tyres 1. Tyre stability even on High temperature seemed good 2. Less seepage of air on leak 3. Tyre becomes lighter and bike moves easily with just small effort 4. Handlebar feels lighter and bike becomes more easy to maneuver. 5. Higher tyre life as zero moisture present inside

Thanks for such informative video👌🏻 #PDArmy

Recently switched to Nitrogen on both my bikes and did feel a certain amount of lightness in handling.

I'm just about to ride from West all the way to Eastern part of India and was considering the fact, thanks Shumi.🙏

Perfect Schumi sir Few people are addicted to Nitrogen and they don't prefer filling normal air. My view is, normal air contains small %of moisture. And in long running that moisture reacts with rim and forms oxidation and results in rust formation. I fill only Normal air in my vehicles coz can't spare extra amount for the air regularly 🙂

Please explain the same with engine oils ❤️

This was really a good video. I was filling nitrogen in my car since last 7 years. Now I can stop it and save some buck😉 Thank you very much for this information!!!

i have a topic...does performance filter and free flow exhaust make more power and better average...in my case it has significantly improved and made my motorcycle better to ride...

rim rusting is also happens when normal air is filled.... N2 give advantage of it

Every video of you. I like and share. Only because they are informative

When it comes to cars and driving on a highways like Samrudhi mahamarg in summers at 45 deg C. , Nitrogen can be helpful. And yes Nitrogen improves drivability by keeping all tires pressure constant and also improves life of tires & also can reduce the frequency of wheel balancing..

Thanks you for hearing and making video on it

Hey Shumi, do one explainer video on different firing order of engine

Can you please do a video on suspension systems? What is the meaning of preload, rebound and compression, etc and how do they affect the vehicle perfomance?

Could we have a video explaining the difference between four wheel drive and all wheel drive along with things like transfer case and 4 low ?

Shumi sir , can you please simplify the concept of clutch less gear shifting. In Normal bikes. 😁

Hey wonderful video powerdrift. Can you make a video over car tire upsizing , which pattern of tyres are good, and which is a better brand for car tire.

@Powerdrift what would be your recommendation for touring on bike? Air for touring or nitrogen for touring?

I would stick to nitrogen only because it helps me to avoid checking tyre pressure regularly.

It's like pd can read my mind... Whenever i think of something about bike... Boooom... They upload a video Thank you for making bikers educated

Hey shumi u had broken the myths Thanks for suggesting to fill the normal air in tyres

Shumi, Lucknow Expressway has free nitrogen pumps. When my car runs constantly at 140 kmph for 2 hours or so, does the heated air inside the tyres cause tyres to expand and hence lose grip? Does nitrogen help here?

Thanks for clearing the myth on which is better- nitrogen or regular air 👍🏼

Hey guys, great video. I many a times lose traction when I am in corners, I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong. Can you cover suspensions and cornering in a video?

Thank you..please make a video on engine braking n rev matching

Shumi on fire 🔥 back to back videos

In some parts of our country 🇮🇳 nitrogen is also same price as air (maybe 5 or 10rs that too if we volenteerely give them ) or else free only in most cases in south India, also for racing the usage of helium is recommended I most cases than nitrogen as helium is lighter nd makes the car go faster but the drawback on helium in tyres is it isn't as leakproof as nitrogen nd we want to check more frequently than normal air🏁

Pls try to make a Video demonstration of at which RPM which gear should be applied & throttle application

@Shumar Would filling tyres with Nitrogen in a humid coastal areas be of benefit as the atmospheric air is more moisture laden (especially during rainy season as the moisture level goes up)?

Bagundi Shumi garu. Nice video

Please make a video on buying helmets under various budgets ie 5k,10k,20k etc.

Thank Shumi 👍....loved it...great work PD👍

Hi Shumi.. just love your simplified series.. Can you simplify whether using different brands of fuels makes any changes to engine performance ?.. and if yes .. which one is better?

Could you also make a video on engine break-in?

love your series very informative..

Make a video on ethanol mix in the fuel

Thank you for the information 💯, really helpful

Amazing. Thanks Schumi.. I had this question for soo long.. My qn: does Nitrogen have any additional advantage if there are punctures on the tyre?

Please provide, riding tips, off roading tips, how to maintain high end bikes and such content. 👍

Need a video on car tyre dimensions and codes written on tyres.

Can u please enlighten us on synthetic oil vs normal wrt BS6 engines

There is also cooling effect inside the tyre ..the Nitrogen won't heat the tyre as much as air ..hence more life to tyre

@Powerdrift I really liked your "Engine Format" simplified episode. Can you also make one with "Stroke" and "Bore". And as an overall, how can i start all these information as a hobby? Is there any course or study I can join to know more about engine ?

Whats the best way to get rid of fog on the windshield when it's raining? Use AC or heater?

0:14 gas and not the stuff that you get from rajma!😂😂 Shumi sir's sarcasm is on another level🔥😂😂

If we have sealant in the tyre, does nitrogen keep the sealant better?

I have used Nitrogen in my tyres and fortunately most company operated pumps provide free nitrogen across the country. Please get updated. The benefits are not just permeation but also better tyre life than air with oxygen/water content.

Wow!! Great topic addressed.. This, sure, will save a lot of brainstorming for millions of people at fuel stations.. 😂

Could you guys make pd simplified as seperate playlist in your channel.

So, if nitrogen is having less permiability under high pressure then after some consecutive re fill of type with air we actually automatically increasing the concentration of Nitrogen in tyres. # Money saved. XD

Please make a simplified video on stock OEM air filter and after market airfilter and its usage in regular car vs weekend performance car..

Great video! What are the problems that water vapor can cause as part of the air we fill?

Hi Shumi what do you suggest to the people who has to travel on highways continuously for 10 hours or has to travel 500+ kms on a sunny day or to the people travelling on a road to ladakh (riding in cold temperatures) ,where road conditions change every few kms

Could you make a video on protecting the back(the spine) from the constant mucroinjuries due to riding?!

Literally used to tell this to guys with big bikes (and money). But hey, what do I know, I just have a 150cc Yamaha. And Nitrogen in tyres is essential for the peak performance required for the Sunday morning ride to Murthal. 😑
