I Got A Yamaha R1 | Midlife Crisis

I got a 2013 Yamaha R1 and if I only live to 40 it could explain my midlife crisis and why I can't decide on a motorcycle.

Nothing wrong with testing the waters! I’ve had cruisers, cafe racers, enduros, sport touring and sport bikes. They’re all fun in their own way, enjoy brother! 😊👍🏻

Absolutely man they’re all fun🙌🏻 that’s quite a selection you’ve had I need to diversify my selection lol 👍🏻

Very same. I've owned baggers to sport bikes. They're all different and offer a different appeal. Currently own a FJR1300 and a CB1000R they compliment each other well. I'm a subscriber of yours btw.

@AutoMobile Informer I ride an R1 aswell. I've ridden 3 S1000RRs, they are just in another league compared to the pre 2015 R1s. The way the RR delivers its power, the chassis, brakes, quickshiter (and its pop) the styling. I will never sell my big bang, but I'm going to buy an RR aswell.

[@JohnSmith-te6wz]

Man that gen of r1 is one of the best looking bikes ever made. The flat black ones, ooooooof

[@sonnyenduro]

I had a 2004 R1, had a tune and exhaust done by the previous owner that claimed it has around 190hp. The bike was a beast but never would I ever want one back, a trip to the bakery had me pumped up, and God forbid you sneeze or hit a pothole the small twist of the wrist will send you flying down the street. The first time I touched the red line in 1st gear I felt like I was traveling through time, its just so damn quick you can't relax on it. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the bike, it looks so nice. Edit: You better wire yourself a manual fan on/off switch because you dont want 110 C under your balls

[@charlieryan1736]

Congratulations on your beautiful new bike 👍🏻 looking forward to watching more R1 videos

[@Antmanmoto]

Good for you! I just turned 53, about to get a ZX14R. The crisis continues lol

[@Chrisnuzzo76]

I'm 46 and also have a mid-life crisis R1. I bought a 2012 Raven version, so not much different than yours. Although, if you plan on changing your exhaust, I highly recommend the titanium Graves system. It sounds even more amazing than the Two Brothers, and looks far better with its carbon fiber twin cans out back. Enjoy your Yamaha brother, and be sure to ride safe fellow old timer.

[@ericford5088]

Dude I was in the same boat. Had a 04 R1 sold it for a 2010 Speed triple. I loved it but my dream bike was a 09 and up R1. Now that I own a 2010 R1 there is no other bike I want in my life besides the one I own. Good choice man!

[@exothermal.sprocket]

I've got 3 motorcycles a 2016 Yamaha R1,a 2015 Triumph Speed Triple 1050,and a 2009 Ducati Monster 1100 Midlife Crisis bases have been covered.I'm 50 right now,I'll still be riding these bikes in my older years.I had a 2012 Yamaha R1,the 2016 feels so much lighter and narrower.

[@wolf07913]

I’ll be on mine this upcoming week! I cannot wait

[@twistn-grips]

Hell yeah buddy! SICK bike!!! I HAD my mind set on the CP4 r1 and there was NOTHING or NO ONE that would change that. UNTIL! I stopped at my local Honda dealer for a friend who needed to drop in to purchase a oil filter and oil for his cbr 600rr. And while I am inside for the first 10mins, this damn salesman comes over to me and brings me to the center of their showroom floor and shows me a BRAND NEW cbr 1000rr in matte black with just the right amount of red decals to make it look AWESOME AF!!! IMO. And tells me that this brand new, ZERO MILES, SEXY ASS 1000cc liter bike is a LEFTOVER model from early 2017 that they are in DESPERATE NEED of selling. Shows me the tag hanging off the left side of the clip-ons with the STUPID low price of $9990!!! Although insanely low for a showroom liter bike with ZERO MILES, still wasn't ready to turn my back on my BABY that I been dreaming of owning for so long, the r1 with the cp4 engine. But then he catches me before I walk out the door and tells me his manager says they can let the bike go for ANOTHER $1000 off of the $9990 tag. So $8990 USD for a freaking BRAND NEW cbr 1000rr!!! That is now in my garage! Absoutly LOVE the bike so far. Still a little sad for the yamaha tho. But at that price, I could NOT walk away from what I FEEL is a ONCE IN A LIFETIME deal. So although I don't get to walk out my home and see my DREAM bike, YET! I'm still pretty stoked to have the CBR. And I'm ALMOST POSITIVE I can sell it at the end of this riding season for WELL OVER what I paid for it and make a little money to put towards my BABY!!! So yeah, a 2015 or newer r1 will STILL, 100%, be parked in my garage in the NOT SO DISTANT FUTURE!!! Anyway, love the bike man! Great choice!!!

[@ChaosCauses]

That’s definitely a deal you can’t refuse man and they’re also such incredible bikes!

[@asifallen6884]

R6 is a masterpiece & it's one of the most beautiful design ever Yamaha create

[@jotr3616]

man that is one sexy bike - plan on getting this year next as well :) Sticking with my 2006 for now though

[@naqshburhan]

It feels slow because you're riding in STD mode. Try switching to A mode and the power comes out right away. Also in order to change from F to C, you need to hold the Select Button on Speedo for about 7-8 sec and it will change o Celsius. I own the '09, love the bike.

[@mauricewhite9149]

Good bike. Had a 2009 and rode it for 10 trouble-free years. Very solid platform. A bit heavy and slower to steer but very stable in the corners

[@enzonguyen5418]

Wow, ive never seen this color on this particular r1. Looks great

[@harrisonjacobsen173]

Grats on the new bike! Can't wait to see more if it. Makes me want to get back into the supersport scene

[@johnwoods2035]

Sweet ride. I couldn't decide on super bike or streetfighter. So I got bother. Yzf600r and a 650r ninja which I made into streetfighter. I actually got the 650r for my wife, but she was scared and i took it over. Worked out for me. Love them both. I have a 2 brothers racing on the 650 and going to get another for my 600. Best sounding exhaust I've ever heard.

[@ChaosCauses]

Thanks dude 🙌🏻 both is definitely the best option lol. And I agree two bros sound awesome I’m going to try get these refurbished

[@adobomoto]

hey man..I'm with you. I've been test riding different bikes on my channel. I'm thinking it might be time to get a hooligan bike or something more streetable. super bikes are just really boring on the streets. I sold my r1m for a 1299s but honestly now I'm looking at a Hypermotard. If I do get a hyper I'll still buy a track day bike though. love your videos dude. keep inspiring us small you tubers!

[@ruikazane5123]

I love the unique R1 look. Sad the 2015 lost it! I tried riding on a 2010 model one, and...damn! Compared to was-mine 'Naomi' R6, the engine is really powerful, including the engine braking...Scared me to the bone! Soo twitchy! I do love the look on the original, though. Cute!

If you ever run into any issues like hard to start, give us a shout on the R1-Forum. This is the most reliable generation of the R1 with only a few common easy to repair issues.

[@kopan14]

35K km mileage for a 6-year-old R1 is not that much, I just wonder why the 4 headpipes get different colour swift, and the Y-pipe is so weirdly positioned compared to an aftermarket Y-pipe

I sort of agree that the 2014-2016 mt09 isn't one of the best looking bikes but still a good looking bike. The riding position of the mt09 leaves me wanting a sportbike (never had a super sport) and I only have had my mt09 for 6 months BUT you have to love that ENGINE in simple words its amazing for riding hooligan.
