We finally fixed the fueling on the V4 Pikes Peak, We finally fixed the fueling on the V4 Pikes Peak, but the data we pulled during the test was a wake-up call. We swapped the heavy factory plumbing for a LeoVince mid-pipe and corrected the fueling with an UpMap ECU flash. The bike is faster, louder, and lofts the front wheel with zero hesitation. But this wasn't a "free" upgrade. No Sponsors. No Platitudes. Most of the content you see about exhaust systems is sponsored by the people selling them. They talk about "weight savings" and "soul," but they rarely talk about the actual data or the compromises required to get there. We did the math on this build. The Gains: Is the power increase actually usable on the street? The Cost: It's more than just the $1,000 invoice. Look at the "hint" in the photo. The Verdict: Is the time, energy, and environmental trade-off worth it for a street bike? If you’re considering an UpMap or a mid-pipe for your V4, you need to see the data we pulled before you spend a dime.

One of the last magazine editors and the man who s One of the last magazine editors and the man who secretly shaped the bikes you love is on the podcast today. 🎙️🏍️ Mitch Boehm from @ama_riding joins us to not only talk about why you should be a member of the AMA, but he'll share the wild stories from the golden era of motorcycle journalism and his time inside Honda R&D. We’re diving into The $200,000 Risk: How one article on helmet safety standards cost the magazine a fortune in ads but changed the industry forever. Developing Icons: Mitch's role in creating the CBR600 F2 and the secret evolution of the CBR900RR. Wild West Stories: Racing Yamaha Venture Royales for a laugh and 125mph close calls. Industry Integrity: The "pay to play" reality of modern media versus the old school "tell it like it is" philosophy. Whether you're a gear nerd or a fan of sportbike history, you don't want to miss this conversation with a true industry legend.

Wednesday morning on the CanyonChasers Podcast: Br Wednesday morning on the CanyonChasers Podcast: Brian finally calls me out for my hypocrisy I tell everyone middleweights are the best bikes ever while I have a Pikes Peak V4 in the garage. We have an honest discussion about whether a $30,000 flagship is actually twice as fun as a $12,000 base model. We also get into some sobering reality: the average rider age is climbing toward fifty and public access to world class tracks like COTA is ending as they shift to private memberships. If your motorcycle was flattened by a steamroller tomorrow, what would you actually replace it with? We explain that theory and share our 2027 MotoGP rider market predictions. New episode drops Wednesday morning. #MiddleweightMotorcycles #MotoGP2027 #TrackDay #CanyonChasers #MotorcyclePodcast #Ducati #KTM #YamahaChampSchool #COTA #RiderTraining #StreetRiding #MotoGP #WSBK #MotorcycleIndustry #BikingCommunity #BikeLife #MotorcycleLife #RideLife #Moto #BikersOfInstagram #Sportbike #Superbike #AdventureRiding #MotoVlogger #MotorcycleNews
