2009 Yamaha R1 Mods UPDATE!

[@MTGBroker]

Probably my favorite bike at this time. Color and mods are perfect. Only thing I would do cosmetically is paint the rims white with maybe a red stripe.

[@XPsychowaffleX]

those Spyder grips are also fantastic motocross grips. destroys bar vibration and super comfy

[@Mike12r1_Official]

Great video and nice collection of mods. I'm a big fan of black sprockets and chain. Def these will be my next mods on my R1. Oh and I need those chain adjuster too :). Regarding the quickshifter I would go with different brand. I just installed Danos QS. Less expensive and great reviews. I've seen a lot of people complaining about Annitori, and they closed their business so there's no chance for any support. I would also recommend you to get Ohlins cartridge in front and TTX rear shock. These will help a lot with riding on the track. This video is just perfect showing all your mods with a nice commentary. Thumbs up! PS: I got the same ringtone on my Nexus :) lol

[@bobthebuilder101ism]

My friend bought a brand new 2013 Triumph 675cc, within a week, a Harley rider dumped oil down his tail pipes.. lol, people will definitely stick stuff in your gas tank.

[@oidirk]

Yamaha is about the only mainstream brand I've not ridden. This vid makes me all tingly for one!

[@mantequilla606]

Im happy you posted this video and a link to the levers, i could not find any pictures of those levers installed, im currently overseas but my gf did the darnest thing and sold my yamaha fz8 for an r1 since xmas time they dropped down to 9k for a 2014...... Cant wait to come home and go insane with parts, i ordered the Driven bar ends, mirror adaptor, CRG mirror, yoshi block off plates, and a zero gravity light smoke corsa windscreen.... I plan on making a meetup next year when/if you have one!

[@theflyingtiger7431]

I've got the same grips. Absolutely love them.

[@DirtRider500R]

You're making me want an R1.... STOP IT!!! My back can't take it! Also, nice Evil Beauty - Blackmill remix ;)

[@motonosity]

I'm sorry!

[@cmg909FTW]

Since I'm in Austin as well, I love watching your videos and just guessing where you are XD

[@BikerBoyzTeam]

We love this bike!

[@Mathis092]

I love your bike, the small changes make a big difference

[@gastontudela4667]

One of the best looking R1!

[@6Foot4Honda]

Sexy bike!!!

[@motonosity]

You wanna ride her? ;)

[@TheCooper211]

Motonosity yes lol. your bike is sooo clean. safe riding!

[@coleman2608]

bro -- the rain ride at the end had me dying w/the lil voice over. I've watched quite a bit of your vids -- your like a mechanic man. I know i'll have 5 extra screws after the reassemble 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@SammyOnAYammi]

hell yeah brotha!!! I did a lot to my 08R6 last year over the winter. But I still have some things I wanna do this off season.

[@motonosity]

I'm so close to being completely done!

[@spicy110]

Tis a lovely bike!

[@motonosity]

I tell her everyday so she doesn't forget :P

[@winterephiphany]

Gah I love your R1 so much. I'd love to get my hands on one someday.

[@DarkHorse08]

You can grind down the notches from the inside of Vortex rearsets and mount them on your Driven rearsets.

[@szaszerik300]

am not gonna lie this is probobly the best looking r1 i saw. good job man love the vids keep it up :-)

[@motonosity]

Szasz Erik Thanks!

[@szaszerik300]

you have nothing to thank its the truth. :-)

[@Dankwheelie]

tastefully modded,i dig it. Over here in FL they like to stretch and lower everything and make them look silly. What's your favorite addition to the bike so far?

[@michaelh.1262]

Dankwheelie lol now he's going to stretch and lower his new ruckus

[@michaelh.1262]

I'm such a savage for replying to a two year old comment

[@subiiegaming8372]

Blue and white with mods, will look sweet

[@minibikemayhem9335]

Wow man a total transformation :) looks great man, I hope your enjoying it as much as I do :P

[@motonosity]

MiniBike Mayhem I stop and stare every time I walk into my garage :)

[@alltheworldisyours]

You keep your bike AHHREEEALLLL clean. Wish I could take my chain guard off, but I know it'll eat up my boot if I do

[@user-su8gf2zy6b]

Wow best camera for a video more specifically a motonosity video

[@gnagarn87]

Damn, your bike looks really, REALLY, good!

[@aaronterantino9538]

Dude your bike is awesome!! What camera were you using during the walkaround? Really good lighting and clarity. ride safe bruhh.

[@johnbennett7247]

a beautiful machine well done mate

[@chicosuave2966]

yours & ds83..best looking R1's

[@cobaltss0720]

Some of those bits look familiar, looking good!

[@motonosity]

NoxImus Lots of inspiration from you sir!

[@cobaltss0720]

How's the bike doing man? Haven't talked to you in a little while. Hope all is well bro.

[@motonosity]

NoxImus It's good man! Just waiting on finding a completely free weekend so I can install my y-pipe, air filter, quickshifter, and do the dyno tune all at the same time. Should be a pretty significant revamp. Bike will be more or less completely done after that :)

[@CodeBlueR6]

I am at a loss for words for the sexiness of this R1. This bike has to be the sexiest R1 in Texas period. R1 of the year award lol Im in the process of buying mods just gotta save up some money.

[@motonosity]

Thanks a lot man!

[@importedjohn400]

Ive seen a couple neochrome windscreens around... not sure who makes them but just wanted to open up other options if you havent seen them before

[@mohammadkamran5862]

the Red and White looks Amazing! and its super clean looks like you just took it out of the dealer. lol.

[@LokeshKumarSingh]

WooooWooo... man i heard you saying this will just be a "weekend track bike" ?? What??? We need more vlog on the R1 :D

[@motonosity]

Not just track, but weekend fun :) I just gotta find more time on the weekend to ride! I usually spend it editing :(

[@LokeshKumarSingh]

Yeah I know how it is to ride when you have to work whole week in office and you have just 2 days(weekend) time ;) Cheers :)

[@Away.Aweigh.A.Way.]

Sick bike man! You planning on removing the passenger foot pegs? Slims it down and drops 5ish lbs off for track days. Just a thought. This thing looks perfect dude!

[@hohodood]

Hey Motonosity have you ever thought about starting a cruise around the Austin area with other local riders? Just moved here and I really want to hit some of those hills

[@tmacc100]

Motonosity what paint did you use to paint your windscreen? Also how did you approach it? Did you tape it off? etc....Could you explain? hope you read this!

[@ThEk1dViC]

LOVE this bike... however I have a 2007... can I apply some of these mods to it? or it's diff?

[@uonlyliveonce]

No problem with your grip buddy from those pegs. Looks like you never leant over on the track looking at those chicken strips!!!

[@JacobWittenzellner]

Hey! from my track day experience and some nasty stickers im not sure if they'll let you but its what i do is i put ducked taped where it will go and then the sticker on top of that it comes off clean usually maybe a little residue but easy to get off!

[@motonosity]

Jacob Wittenzellner Thanks for the tip!

[@Gigadad7]

no mirrors no plate +1 I do the same thing myself now you just need to remove your rear pegs

[@asher217ify]

What flush mount turn signals do you have and what tag eliminator kit do you have? how did you mount the tag eliminator kit?

[@jrTall26]

Yeah moto your bike is super sweet

[@motonosity]

jrTall26 Thanks bud

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

Im glad my buell has a belt drive, never have to clean,lubricate or adjust it plus it last for about 30-40k miles before needing replacing. No chain lasts anywhere near that long.

[@motonosity]

I love the looks of a chain though.

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

Motonosity chains have a nice look to them, but they also have drawbacks. I own a 1999 r1 now that I picked up from a old fart in Wisconsin, and the chain has a nice look but it requires lubricant,adjustments and worst of all chains sag so when acceleration they cause a slight jerk. If you ever get to ride a buell do it! it will be hard to ride with a chain after riding without that jerk and chains dont make noise.

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

For me the best looking r1 was the first gen r1. If the original r1 had a undertail exhaust it would look even better.

[@jeffbarnett5484]

Also have an 09 R1 n am curious what all parts did you need in order to do the 2012+ nose fairing conversion? Thanks. Great videos

[@1sickkidd9]

Motonosity, PIMP MY RIDE! (R6) :)

[@jay-rock6627]

Cool bike now just put some led lights into the wheels & you are good as gold. 👍🏾

[@W5rr2nG]

Man i love your bike! Its dope 👍

[@litsloth6099]

I hav to wait 1.5 years until I can get my license and I’ve been saving money. I have been looking at the Kawasaki ninja 250 Honda cbr250r or a Yamaha r1 which would you recommend for a beginner?

[@Martin501]

You only changed 1 piece in the front, or you changed the whole kit?

[@motonosity]

Not sure what you're referring to.

[@Martin501]

+Motonosity I mean, the 2012 front headlight assembling

[@tf2965]

it'd be pretty dope if you got some LED head lights similar to what is on the 2015 R1. those are beautiful, and i feel like they'd make your bike look nice and aggressive and sleek. still a beautiful bike tho.

[@yudhamica17]

Dream bike

[@vincenttan6486]

How many miles does your r1 survive when it hits the reserve tank light?

[@parkermaness9504]

How did you keep changing the brightness/what kinda camera did you use?

[@toffe2ventil]

Hi, is it ok to run without the front sprocket cover? No danger involved?

[@xXSOTXxKING]

Did you install you chain and sprockets and if so do you have any installation videos? Trying to figure out if its something I can do myself

[@motonosity]

xXSOTXxKING Yes, I did, but no installation videos. You can do it yourself if you have the right tools.

[@Kaioken1130]

Do they make silver color forks for your R1? That would look sick!!!! Not that it doesn't already :) keep it up with the awesome vids man!!!

[@motonosity]

Kaioken1130 They have black. I like the gold though :)

[@Kaioken1130]

Nice man! She does look Amazing!!!

[@jasonelliott9762]

Whats you opinion on an R1 bike meant for commuting?

[@DunePanda]

do you mess about with the maps or the ECU?

[@ferinaty]

This is my dream bike

[@KoendHaan]

hey motonosity, What camera did you use in this vid? looks great

[@motonosity]

Canon T4i with Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 (shot at f/3.2)

[@KoendHaan]

Motonosity ah cool thnx

[@KoendHaan]

Motonosity ah cool thnx

[@Surron_Dave]

Looks great man. Just put the same chain on my R6. No license plate that evening?:)

[@motonosity]

License plates? Ain't nobody got time for dat!

[@Kels14B]

Why did you decide not to show others how to convert to 2012 front end ?

[@mikehenderson7357]

@motonosity I have a question is there any certain shift points I should be shifting gears around town? like what speed for the low gears..?

[@enriquea.sanmigueljr.1699]

Where did you get the chain adjuster and the sprocket?

[@uonlyliveonce]

Any bends on the track you rode on>????

[@evolutionlancer7358]

damn it got dark quick.. love the bike.

[@motonosity]

Evolution Lancer Yeah wasn't prepared for that!

[@Adrian14045]

love that R1 dude! owh hey, can I ask you something? You took off you side mirrors, is that dangerous? better you put it on again dude... Ride safe !!

[@AndrettiGA]

The new owner shouldn’t have removed the graphic on the sides, they were sick🔥

[@dakota5453]

hey what teeth size are you running on your front and back sprockets? thanks

[@mustanlab302]

Thats a sexy bike and coming from a harley rider lol wish I had me a 1000 but I think I would go for a cbr

[@mahendrachavan4823]

I love this 😍 exhaust I want to install in my r15 v2 is it possible.

[@piotrslenter3746]

Nice Bike!!!!

[@RagnarR1]

what kind of oil do you use in your r1?

[@AlexLopez-kx5tq]

hey man you fender eliminator kit? what brand is it and have you gotten stopped because of it? just got mine and it sits that low but i really really do not want to be pulled over because of something like that. thanks

[@motonosity]

It's custom

[@halfblindmotonut]

Looks sick!. Why don't you run a seat cowl?

[@motonosity]

I like the look of a red seat over a white seat cowl. Just looks kinda weird to me.

[@halfblindmotonut]

ah okay..

[@mnmv8]

nice bro! how much did you pay for the headlights and fairings? i have a 2010 and love the new look! thanks!

[@JonTVuMAD]

hey that sounds and looks like a dslr...how do you carry your filming equipment while riding?

[@IsmailRosli]

GoPro camera

[@JonTVuMAD]

+Ismail Rosli no its not. not when hes filming the bike!

[@IsmailRosli]

JonTV Ohh, im sorry. Im not too sure about that one man. Im sorry yo

[@carlozmrc]
