On the YouTube channel "MOTO KOR." There is always something going on with motorcycles. Either they put saws instead of wheels, or they assemble all-terrain vehicles from scooters, and these are perhaps the most decent examples. This time, the author decided to use such science as physics and check which of the Minsk motorcycles will show more power. The participants in the experiment were the original "Minsk" of 1976 and its modern mod, assembled by the author of the channel literally from some rubbish. By the way, this project is still under development, and already gives odds to many of its contemporaries.
For scientific purposes, not just anything was used, but a real motorcycle dyno. You probably could see something similar - the rear wheel is mounted on a movable shaft, while the front wheel is fixed in a special frame. A motorcyclist sits down from above (but not necessarily), and the performance begins. Smoke, maximum speed, engine roar - everything is here as we like. At the same time, a computer connected to the stand measures the power delivered by the motorcycle.
We will not spoil the results of comparing the two Minsks. Instead, we offer you to watch the video and find out who won the confrontation, or whether it was a fair draw. Everything is not so obvious.
Russian Angara launch vehicles are superior to their American counterparts, but there is a nuance
The Soviet Union allocated huge funds for the development of the space industry. The result is known - the first person sent on the flight was a citizen of the USSR....
