Streetifying An Abused Yamaha R1 | Track Bike to Street Bike EP.3

[@TheBlackob]

I think your assistant did a very good job, supervising you. I hope they get a raise.

[@seb_grove2123]

I don’t want her to get hurt… I don’t know what I’d do without the R1😭😭

[@domcxz8643]

Fo real XDDDDDDDD

I LOL'd at this too! Hahahaha

[@AirMiloTakManis]

Since the bike is already naked, go change the spark plugs and check the valve clearance

[@garrison2574]

and air filter when the tank comes off for paint

This comment to get wayyyy more likes than it has

[@TheV0idWa1ker]

This feels like an adult version of Lego set, so satisfying...

[@foodsfor_thought]

Exactly

[@spartanx169x]

I'm always bothered when I see a bike that has been abused and not taken care of. Glad to see you doing this to this bike.

[@steve_wilson]

I'd love to see the innards, though. Purty on the outside ain't enough if one wants a long term relationship.

[@Christopher_Hall]

What a fantastic surprise to have another video uploaded so soon!!! Loving this build 🤘🤘🤘this R1 is going to look awesome

[@MotoDash1100]

Yooo I almost forgot it was Sunday and what that means.. FUNDAY! Starting the morning off right with a little bit of Chaos.

[@kitchamph3525]

What, my Monday is going to start in a couple of hours.

[@dirtbikemike2956]

Rather b welding posts today aswell😊

[@kharri2476]

A man who truly cares about his bike the way that I do. People like us truly deserve super sports. This is because we sincerely care about the quality of the bike. Nice job Bro. 👏👏👏

[@hendrikvanzyl2689]

Brilliant series man!!! The ending will be legendary, and well worth it! Keep on keeping on.

I love the precision in your work. Sure it is gonna be a good wakening the spirits in their factory shape. Keep going bro it will pay you back.

[@roguepencil47]

Funny how the first thing I do before I even watch CC videos I drop a 👍🏾 and I never regret it because he always delivers... #KeepRockingMyDude...#YouMakeSouthAfricaProud😂❤🇿🇦...

[@WaRn00b85]

I felt physically sad when the episode ended. Such a rad project man! Keep up the hard work!

[@NS_335i]

You’re of the most underrated channels, love the content bro !

[@3rror_unknown_user]

Great video bro 😎 shoutout from the uk 🇬🇧

[@ElevenRush]

8:16 putting stand felt awesome never before this😂

[@wildwilco]

15:10 she was tapping those bolt into your brand new passenger footpegs... it definitely should NOT be costing any effort to twist them in...

[@Jaszczur-sp2tx]

The bolts may have had threadlocker preapplied. Those can be a bit hard to install.

[@wildwilco]

@@Jaszczur-sp2tx threadlocker is a liquid which you barely notice. It hardens after a couple minute/hours depending on the type. Unless some cheap paste-like threadlocker was used, which I don't expect since he's paying top money for tye rest of the bike

[@Bob489]

Probably slightly twisted threads. I've had this issue with alot of bolts on my bike because the previous owner tightened EVERYTHING too much. Usually just straighten then out with a thread-making-thingy-rod (Sorry, english isn'y my first language) but doing it with a bolt can work just as well. :)

[@johnnyblue4799]

@@wildwilco There are bolts coming new with threadlocker pre-applied and it's not liquid anymore when you get them.

[@ruben.swanie]

this build gonna be amazing 😂🤙

[@ravikantsjadhav]

This is the best series you have made. I am waiting for your next episode. Amazing channel and content!!! All the best!

[@Yukisho]

That TST tail light is likely blinking fast because the stock relay wasn't swapped. It's a super simple process and makes it easier for people not to ignore your signals if they are flashing too quickly.

[@TheSnuggs01]

Looking good so far Bud, you’re doing it the right way, really enjoying your channel and content, keep it up.👍🏻

[@xristos4848]

Paint the wheels Light or Dark Grey. You can do something like blue, red, yellow but in my opinion its a basic option. You can do white but in a couple of rides the dust will ruin the color and you will have to clean them every now and then. So i guess a shade of grey would be nice

[@tomasslabbert3437]

A whiter shade of pale, maybe?

[@twitchmania7614]

I think teal would be sick. If it matches the rest of the bike

[@cwroberts79]

Awesome! Keep it rolling. I’ve been waiting for more R1 videos.

[@mrpeacelol4496]

I love this series...can't wait for the End result....also that assistant need a raise with pets

[@001jd4]

Id say either silver, or gold/bronze is my guess for powder coating as all 3 o these would go with its factory colour, have to wait till next vid to find out 👌

[@davetanaleon4825]

Bago nag yare to ng hina ako sa kalagayan pero ngayon bago na nice good job sana magud run na siya 😊😊😊😊😊 Hellow form fillippenes. Mahilig ako samotor sa kadahilanan driver my father

[@JeffEvans-l1y]

Being a traditionalist, hopefully these wheels will come back Yamaha blue! Great series so far, I can’t wait to see it all come together at the end.

[@cnoxcs95]

can’t wait to see how this turns up, i managed to save up 8200€ and started looking for a s1000rr but in EU they are HELLA EXPENSIVE then your videos popped up and made me search r1 track bikes just to see them go for more than a stock one lmao , great vids 👌🏼

[@Forged_RSV4]

Loving this build series. Keep up the great work 🤙🏼

[@MuitheExplorer]

Man im enjoying the R1 series so much, I check your channel if there's a new vid every night, got addicted lol

[@donfreimanis7426]

I’ve been following you since you only had 1000 subscribers, I always look forward to your videos dude

[@aleksrodins]

Wheels can be gold or bronze colour, depends on what livery or colour you’re going for! TBH you can’t go wrong with any conventional colour choice! There’s no colour scheme for R1 to look bad! Photographer dream! 🙂

[@seb_grove2123]

Best surprise on my Sunday ngl

[@DYNOSRR]

Super fun series, I love seeing it come together

[@steve_wilson]

If you're taking late breaking guesses on the wheel color, Justin, I'll go with Yammie Yellow. I think you're going to riff on your Dad's R1 since that's what I'd do. How could you not if that's the very bike of your dreams? Love your content - living vicariously since I don't trust myself with that much power. I love making solid lines out of dashed. It's addictive, no matter what racing colors one prefers! 😂

[@themansilva]

Hey man, I've been following your R1 project from the start. I've also got a track R1, but from 2019 and since she got registration im assembling her. Really like your content but there are somethings you can upgrade your bike. One the examples is to annulate the flap system on the air duct. Keep your good work, looking forward to see how your R1 is going to be when its done.

[@CyberChrist]

Magnesium colour wheels seems like a no-brainer, and I suppose they wouldn't look bad with the Red and white Haga-era livery I was advocating for on the previous episode ;)

[@brentbauer8258]

Paint it……ummmm….KLR green! KLR green! KLR GREEN! Your favourite bike colour!😂

[@AsvinThakur391]

Bro said abused ! Bro that thing is a beast and it wants that only ! TO run on a track so that it can unleash it's inside power and you say abused! 🦁

[@Paco_Gaepedores]

Keep up the good work man 💪 ❤ Love from San Francisco, California 🇺🇲 🌴 ❤️

[@Zettmotorss]

THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW TO DO IT.THANKKKK YOU. I WAS SO SCARED OF FRONT CAWL. but this video made it look ez

[@UpsideDownFork]

Those lightech levers have a couple of threaded holes underneath for you to screw a little L bracket into, which hit the brake/clutch switches. I just recently ran into this with my project and getting a replacement bracket and bolt was simple here in the UK.

[@cowmath77]

I’m reworking a speed triple that was left outside in the midwestern USA for 3 years… it’s a nightmare. Seeing how clean this bike is, I’m angry…

[@Ronistii]

i love this series keep it up! great content

[@charleslim9428]

I really enjoy this R1 progress, you did amazing job man, make the color like r1m

[@danielmcginley4195]

Great update, coming along nicely 👍

[@Cramec]

Nice job, looking forward to the complete build

[@aaa_batteries]

Looking more and more like a street bike every video! 🔥 Are you going to ride it with your dad? Would make a good video.

[@horacioguerrero8522]

Can’t wait for the next episode!!

[@hermmie17]

Very good episode again, enjoying watching this come together. Whats your cute shop assistants name anyway :D As for the wheels, I'm absolutely with you when it comes to black.. a lighter color gives a much nicer contrast and shows off the intricate details alot better. Color wise, I've always loved the yamaha blue along with white wheels, yet that would be a huge pain to keep clean. Silver works, might get boring over time. Gold or bronze would also be nice.

[@MikeS42069]

Looking good! I think the bike would look top notch with wheels that matched the blue/purple on the gas tank!

[@refaelililov8953]

Can’t wait for the next episode

[@Raghu05]

Loving this R1 content ❤

[@eliinthewolverinestate6729]

Yes light. Been trying to figure out have triangulation of lights on bike for drivers to see it better.

[@ThisRandomGuyYouDidntNotice]

hope the wheels won't be as bright as the rim stripe :D either way nice to see some progress on some bike, even if it's not mine... also waiting for parts here ^^

Great job bro, keep going more content!! ✌🏼🔥

[@mozzfather]

You know what you need? You need what every Yamaha rider needs: golden rims! 🫶 Nice series you got going on, I like! 😊

[@ufcker915]

I know exactly what I'd do without an R1...Start up my GSXR 750 and ride it...😎🤣👍

[@wotbot7013]

What a purrfect assistant :D

[@r1_fanaticbikelife213]

I don’t know if you skipped showing us purposely but I didn’t see you use blue loctite for the bolts on the rear sets. That is important because the vibration can cause them to loosen

[@mrchrisbeach]

1:28 best cat 🫶

[@spirit9002]

Ahhh the bike.... Shes lovely😩😍

[@a.m8530]

black and yellow with some blue will look good

[@Magasirsa]

Hey, just asking if it got aftermarket ecu or stock. If it's included in your purchase, put stock ecu back in and you should good to go. Stock ecu wouldn't have usb dongle hanging around. And yes you gotta see if it got aftermarket brakepad for operating temperature, o2 sensor (race bike would go with wideband, but if it's wet and stuttering will happen), and foremost license plate! You might have to flush the tank because race bike often use high-percentage ethanol and fill it with premium gas. These is why most people wouldn't buy track bike for street use, too much hassle and you might ended adding more money that you should have. Cheers mate!

[@LushmanGB]

Good progress, I would recommend gold colour for your wheels

[@adityagoswami5712]

I think you can get the bike painted whole neon while keeping the rims same as they're💚🖤

[@MarissaTheMuse]

Those rear sets are real nice and could be cleaned up to look much better than stock. They already do imo they’re just rough on the surface Edit: oh I see, they’re more different than I realized at first, I thought just the replaceable peg was different between the L & R side. I’ll take them if you don’t want them 😬

[@simonparent7644]

I'd paint the wheels the same bright yellow colour that the line on the side wall of your new street tires! My 2 cents, cheers mate!

[@adityagoswami5712]

I'd suggest you to get the wheels done in neon or just match the fuel tank's colour like the R15 or just keep them black

[@dragonx.7026]

Awesome Man 🎉🎉🎉

[@Kid574]

"getting abused on track" that's not abuse, that's how sportbikes are supposed to be used! you actually abuse them way more on street rides, with traffic, traffic lights and so on building up heat where it's not supposed to build. proper maintenance plus track riding = a great bike

[@TheDiamoniteG]

Honestly if those are factory titanium headers...they suck to polish, nearly impossible by hand. I had to get mine media blasted but that only cleans it, doesn't polish. whatever it still works :)

[@Leon-ky2km]

Who else likes his videos before actually watching them

[@lmao12391]

I saw a video from another youtuber where he used a diluted acid solution with water for the exhaust and it brought the shine right back for it.

[@SRaven1]

The R1 looks so good without the front panels for some reason

[@sofy1596]

i know absolutely fuckall about bikes, I just ride one, but this series is so interesting and fun to watch

[@pedromachadinho8433]

wheels Gold collor is the best :)

[@cornestander3877]

With that type of suspension, i wouldnt replace it, maybe take it to get tuned or setup for your weight and partner as a pillion.

[@davmanlop333]

Looking good 👏

[@MRBeaver27]

Race bikes don't need headlights, the track is always lit.....

[@paolosusanni1069]

It’s a beauty ❤

[@actuallyharuto2382]

finally a new episode

[@duncandehulst2016]

Your coolant looks like forbidden lemonade

[@nathanduplessis2472]

Next time try pool acid for the exhaust, works like a dream🙌🏻

[@adityagoswami5712]

I'm too young to understand all this but I seem to get it thanks for the information bro❤

[@rhezeus]

dont have a big bikes yet. but rear sets i learn in the hard way.. the rod nut went loose and i cant shift. fixed with new nut and screw.. then the peg comes loose.. lock tight is the fix. then the small bolts get loose due to vibration then i went back to stock i hope to see on wheel is rough texture dark bronze matte

[@static369]

Very nice build series.

[@jordandavid2326]

assistant did superb job! ur gf did too but when is next vid ? im excited! 😊

[@treythekiller]

Since you’re going lighter color for the wheels, I would like to see white because its hardly ever done, mainly just see fluro yellow.

[@cornish_boy6235]

Don’t use the bleach on the headers, works great but damages the metal. Used to do it on my old fz1 and ended up being dirty 3 rides later in the end as the metal was so compromised.

[@here2enjoy-bt8jq]

Wheel color: choose what Fz09 blue color bike came with. Likes lime yellow or something
