Well done man One of the best looking ravens I've seen 🤘👍

[@evolutionlancer7358]

i have the same system on my r1 love it. your bike looks amazing man.. good work. lovely.

[@MotoVenture.]

Sweet bike man! Looks crazy, best R1 I've seen yet! SUBBED!

[@cobaltss0720]

Yetsu Ustey Thanks a lot man. I just had a baby daughter, so i'll be making some more videos as soon as I can.

[@NZsarge1]

Very nice bike dude, love the mods, quite subtle but very nice. Sounds great too but R1's usually do, only constructive comment I have is although it's difficult to see for sure the drive chain looks very tight.

[@midwestcountry239]

Believe and live forever :) fantastic video by the way

[@theanxiousbagel]

Beautiful bike. I'm a big fan of the clean look.

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot! :D

[@Gabriel-qh5yv]

Beautiful bike :)

[@6Foot4Honda]

great looking bike!

[@cobaltss0720]

***** Thanks a lot man!

[@vincensiuschristopher9929]

wow i randomly wanted to see 2012 r1 , clicked this video and saw 6foot4honda lol

[@DoubleT90T]

Bike is soooo sick dude! Love it.

[@cobaltss0720]

thanks bro!

[@vBzTeRRoR]

I'm looking into a driven chain and sprocket kit for my gsxr 750 07 and was thinking of down the same Change but wanted to know whats the reason for you going down -1 front, rear stock ?

[@immytown]

I have 1000 km and know of the cam chain tensioner problems.. do you think I should get the manual one right away? Did you notice a big difference

[@jacob-tl3is]

Did you notice a difference with the graves cams and the upper and lower v stacks? I’ve been thinking about getting those myself.

[@alpha6five528]

Beautiful bike bro. what was the purpose of the break fluid switch if I might ask ? is it better and what kind is it? Also is it better to use the cam chain tentionor the way you have it ?

[@jimmywoods1906]

Where did u get the clear break fluid hose from?

[@showb_3]

Where did you get your lights from? Where did you get your Y pipe I I have the two brothers exhaust that you use to have

[@stevelisi7802]

How much power did u make with tha big cam kit on ive got the engine out on mine and was thinking might as well do that

[@downshift83]

Very clean bike dood!

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot bro!

[@gary12000a]

Everything about your mods I like, would have loved to hear it at speed Magic System mate

[@Shogun09R1]

Simply stunning! =)

[@cobaltss0720]

Much appreciated!! I'm ready for riding season, that's for sure. lol

[@djdev3077]

I know it's an old video,but did you get the bike dyno tuned after all the work,

[@MrYellow225]

how did the graves cams change its power ? any pros and cons ?

[@svrider702]

did the graves cams and velocity stacks make a difference?

[@ReaIDeaI1]

How do you like your 520 conversion? Isn't that insane on a liter bike? I was thinking about converting my R6, should I?

[@TheVilouboy]

How do you like the -1/Stock rear? Any reason you didn't do the -1/+2? Great video! Can't wait to see more

[@413_RYDER]

That ate super blue is it type 200? Is there a difference?

[@daystate123]

Op... Did you use a Speedo healer for the minus 1 front?

[@darkninja67]

I had an atheist once try to save me from..... well actually nothing. Good video brother, love that ride. I want to go with that 3D chain as well.

[@juansolis6771]

Love your bike keep it up

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot bro!

[@jrTall26]

Did you get it tuned after the cams? How much power? Nice bike

[@hackiz]

Damn nice bike! Where can I get black passenger fot pegs? Mine is black and silver were the foot goes...

[@shazzadauncon3682]

Can 2015-18 r1s swing arm be installed on 2009-14 r1 ???

[@elijahmill]

beautiful bike... what midpipe is that?

[@1warcquel]

Very nice bike.. oh, and it's nice to see a video where there's no smack talking or hating in the comments. So I guess the KZbin smack talkers had to agree your bike was too nice as well.. haha!

[@cobaltss0720]

Lol thanks man. I hate the trolls and negative comments. I'm hoping they stay away! Lol.

[@gary12000a]

Great looking bike

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot man!

[@bihcardinals]

where in indiana do u live?

[@jesusvasquez5038]

Nice damn bike

[@theredmanmotovlogs313]

Would you say the Graves race cams are worth the money?? They seem a little pricey ontop of the fact that I would need to change the valves, header, and timing chain to get the real performance :/ Nice Bike!!!!

[@Witness2282]

She looks beautiful dude. I've got to get the midpipe for mine because it looks so much better.

[@cobaltss0720]

Thank man! I really love this setup, I should have gotten this a long time ago. I'm excited for it to start turning colors. I really like the way the titanium changes over time, and after some heating up.

[@Witness2282]

Yea mine has started to turn blue a little bit over time...looks nice. Gives it character

[@austin17qb24]

Any dyno numbers???

[@deepikachu8473]

What size rizoma brake fluid reservoir are you using for the fronts? I've noticed online there's two sizes and the smaller size reservoir costed a bit more.

[@cobaltss0720]

this is my front! www.motovationusa.com/mvstore/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=365

[@christophersmyrski8564]

I'm not a yammi guy but that is a dope r1!

[@P75ELE]

Best looking R1 EVER

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot! :D

[@TheJudge64]

Where did you get the clear lines for the brake reservoir to the master cylinder? Really like that

[@cobaltss0720]

its Tygon 2375 8mm

[@TheIvens2011]

As a brazilian atheist and R1 lover... I salute you!

[@vasea729]

Buddy please tell me how you changed the chain tensioner, did yoh spin the crank to adjust them the k mark? Or just put some pressure with a screw driver and change without mess with the marks 🙏🙏

[@cobaltss0720]

Move the crank to TDC, which would be the K mark. You will feel the cams roll over and not want to pull the crank. Then before you remove the old tensioner, put pressure on the intake cam chain guide to make sure the chain doesn't lose too much tension. Install the new tensioner and set tension.

[@danielsanchez3732]

great vids you post man!!! i have a few questions for you cause seems like you really know wat u talking about. i just bought a brand new r1 from a dealership, i previously owned 07 and 09 r6's. What would be your best advise on how to break in this bike, wat types of oil should i use for my first services, i worked on my previous bikes my self but i was told that i might void warranty if i do it on this one for the first year. any other advises would be really appreciated. thnx in advance.

[@cobaltss0720]

Hey man, thanks for the compliment! The biggest thing to watch out for when you're riding around a brand new bike, is holding a consistent throttle for long periods of time. I'd try to avoid long highway riding (50+ miles), and try to vary your speed and rpm as much as possible. Engine break in is important, but isn't the death of bikes, like most people say it is, if you don't do it the way the say it should be done. As long as you're not red lining the bike and ever stop light, and doing long wide open throttle pulls on the highway, you're good to go. I typically do my first oil change at 300-500 miles, and I personally use Amsoil full synthetic 10w-40, and their filter as well. However, any reputable name brand oil will work just fine, that includes Yamalube. Some guys run motul, other run Mobile 1, but I run Amsoil in everything I own. I hope that helps man, and if you need anything else, just let me know. Take care Brother.

[@danielsanchez3732]

Thank you so much for your help man. keep posting great vids... and ride safe..

[@gh51popescu]

Dude, great effort!! Never seen a bike in a betrer condition than urs.. More than happy to purchase it from u when it's up for sale!! By the way, what brake lines are u using? That color is insane!! Have u got a link by any chance? Cheers bro, ride safe! Fin

[@gh51popescu]

FB34 have you considered using a power commander by the way?

[@KruznwithKMAN]

Wow that thing is absolutely a piece of beauty. I'm from Cinci would love to see it man and we can ride!

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot bro, I really appreciate it! Ya know, I live not too far away from cinci, might by have to hit ya up one day!

[@peterrailton9614]

NoxImus I can hear you from uk,high five!

[@cobaltss0720]

peter railton Haha bad ass man!

[@mr09R1]

Rwhp?

[@bilal_5569]

what brand is the brake light ? i am going to get those pipes for sure for my new 14 R1

[@cobaltss0720]

bilal solmaz That's a Motodynamic, I love it man,

[@novicrider6409]

I watch alot of videos of titles of them going to explain something and forth first 2 mins (not yours) it's them explaining something completely off topic. lol maybe it's just me but it drives me nuts. anyways. love the bike. I have a 2014 r1 full graves system and would like to get some more upgrades as well.

[@Slashboran]

hey man, where did you get the reservoir hose??

[@cobaltss0720]

We sell it by the foot here noxracing.com/products/copy-of-tygon-2375-1-4-id-6-35mm?_pos=1&_sid=b0a5f6310&_ss=r

[@dikeido10]

hi, i own a 2012 limited edition yzfr1, just wanna ask, why u minus 1 at the front sprocket? and also, do u install the manual cam adjuster because u change the cam or because it is more reliable than the stock one? thanks in advance

[@cobaltss0720]

Hey man, sorry about the late responce. I originally went -1 because it gave the bike a better low end, and made it a lot more streetable. The manual CCT is a lot more reliable than the factory one. I replaced one to simple get ride of the hydraulic OEM one. I would do it if I were eve run ing factory cams and timing as well.

[@dikeido10]

NoxImus hey, wanna ask u again, before all the mods, i mean stock, what is the top speed of your r1? because with the stock bike i cant even close to 175km/h :(

[@kw1213]

dikeido10 Stock R1 will easily hit 260 km/hr so I dont know what you are talking about

[@cobaltss0720]

kw1213 260 km/hr is only about 161 mph. Typically they're governed from the factory at about 180 mph or so

[@kw1213]

NoxImus Yeah but he was saying that he can barely get to 175 km/h not mph

[@amc703]

I'm 17 and will be 18 this summer and in the next year or two I want to get a bike. Right now I have a 2007 Mustang which I will be dumping 80% of my money on along with videos but eventually I want to keep my car and get a street bike. I prefer yamaha and really like the look of the r1 but would it be to much for a first bike ? People say 1000cc is to big but I guess that really depends on how you treat it. I'm 5'7" maybe 5'8" and have rode along the back of yamaha when I was younger but now I want to get one of my own. Subscribed !

[@cobaltss0720]

I get asked that questions a lot. It really depends on how mature you are, and if you can respect the bike. These bikes deserve a ton of respect from its rider. Things can get hairy pretty fast, they are awfully torquey down low. I personally have been riding since I was 12. Dirty bikes, scooter, then moved up to a R6. I rode my R6 for about 2-3 years, then got this R1. I've been down a lot of times, trips to the hospital, stitches, concussions, road rash, but no broken bones. I haven't been down since I was 17, but I can tell you I've learned a lot the hard way. Whatever you do, respect what you ride, and take care of it. Also, keep your eyes on the road at all time, and learn how to not get into target fixation mode. Most accidents are also caused by other vehicles not paying attention or seeing bikes on the road. BE SAFE PLEASE! I value my subscribers, I don't want anyone getting hurt.

[@dougduvall]

Hey buddy .I have a quick question did the graves cams make much of a difference .I have a 2012 r1 I've been thinking of swapping out the oem cams .if u could tell me if the difference I would appreciate it .sound /power ect thanks bud and ride safe p.s nice r1 looks sharp.

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks man, I appreciate it. With the cams and a decent tune, you're going to notice a better low/mid range on the bike. That's where I've personally seen the most gains, and honesltt where it really counts. You won't be disappointed, that I promise you.

[@dougduvall]

Thanks

[@woodsmark0]

NICE ASS BIKE!!

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks a lot man.

[@motonosity]

Dude, kudos. This thing is a work of art. Any chance you could make a mod list with links? I'll be doing an order soon for parts and wanna make sure I've got everything. Also, thoughts on going with the aluminum sprocket vs steel (from a reliability standpoint)?

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks man, means a lot getting compliments like that from guys like you! I just added a mod list to the description, I think I've got most of everything in there. As for the sprockets, it really depends on what you're looking to get out of them life wise. Personally, I'm getting about 6k miles out of the aluminum rear sprockets. I change my Chain and Sprockets our every season anyways, so I'm okay with that life span. Most of the people that don't get a lot of life out of their aluminum sprockets, fail to adjust their chain properly and leads to early excessive wear. I really recommend the driven product line, they've done a great job, and quality is really there. They also make a Hyperlight, which is their steel sprocket, that is lightened up really well. You should get more life out of that one, if you're worried about it.

[@motonosity]

Thanks man, really appreciate it. Yeah I'd love to go aluminum, I just do so many miles each year because I commute a lot with the bike. Hoping to pick up another bike though so that might make it a no brainer. Never done a sprocket and chain swap though so that'll be interesting :P You definitely sound like you know you're stuff haha

[@cobaltss0720]

MotonosityX If you're comuting a lot on it, I'd go the hyper-light route, should get a few season out of it. I don't know everthing thats for sure. The suspension side of things, i'm still learning. But most of everything else I've got down. I'm ASE certified, so that helped out a ton. If you have any questions when you get into it, let me know. Good luck bro!

[@rubio90r]

Bad ass bike..how much power did u gain with the graves cams and velocity stacks..

[@cobaltss0720]

Ramon Rubio Thanks man! I'd say I got pretty close to 15hp. Though mid range gains were much more than the peak HP.

[@xXSOTXxKING]

How hard was it to do the Graves Camshafts?

[@cobaltss0720]

It's not too hard, but it is time consuming. If you take your time, and make sure you follow the service manual for the most part, it should go well. Keep in mind you will have to reshim, and degree the cams properly.

[@buickkkkkk1]

Next time they come around ask them about deuteronomy 4;2..... nice bike

[@aghey1011]

the mods list still going on 😅

[@shaqblack2]

I want this!!!!

[@drewngure]

beautiful bike bro! very clean and well maintained. very quick question, I am 5.85" ..about 1.78m ..can I flat foot the bike?

[@cobaltss0720]

i don't think you'd be able to flat foot on it, maybe with some slight lowering. Thanks for the compliment bro.

[@drewngure]

NoxImus well Ive been googling up Jorge Lorenzo (5'7" tall) on yamaha R1 and he appears to reach the ground with both feet. Its possible all his bikes are lowered but id think at some point someone must have photographed him on a normal height bike wouldn't you agree? Ideally id just go to a dealer and test the height myself but unfortunately these bikes aren't locally available in my country. Il have to estimate if I'll fit it and just buy.

[@hackiz]

Were can I get black passenger pegs? Sick bike btw!

[@cobaltss0720]

I had my factory ones powdercoated.

[@Moistyr1]

if there is a god i could only think be a good person and good things will happen, but that in general

[@Pimprovising]

Why did you go akropovic over graves?

[@cobaltss0720]

This is actually the Graves Exhaust system, not the Akropovic.

[@belkins1]

very clean.. do you even ride bro? lol! j/k! thumbs up!

[@cobaltss0720]

lmao!😅

[@familytireprosauora4362]

What brake fluid?

[@cobaltss0720]

ATE SuperBlue

[@iterm1]

Noxlmus can you share your pcv map ... ?

[@cobaltss0720]

Because most of my fueling changes are done when I flash my bike through the ECU, my PCV maps are just small changes, made by the auto tune. I'd have no problem sending you the maps if you'd like them. Send me a message with your email and I'll send them your way!

[@iterm1]

[e-mail] I have flash tune interface but i like to see what diference make auto tune to the maps we can talk more on yahoo mail tanks and nice bike by the way ... :

[@user-glennbob]

Shout at the devil!! lol

[@joshpena9478]

Fucking sweet? Didn't know they made toce exhaust for the 2012 r6. Niceeeeee

[@ninjasupersport]

That an R1 dude not an R6 that not just some wack toce exhaust that's high quality exhaust he has it's called graves

[@RyanMcIntyre]

Atheism and Libertarianism!! Also, badass bike lol You have the exhaust and velocity stacks I'm interested in, which is how I found your channel. You didn't mention ECU flashing or any fueling controller, what are you doing for that?

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks man! Currently I'm only flashing my bike. I was running a PCV, SFM, and Auto Tune in conjuction with flashing. I've found it easier to just data log and flash the bike. If you're interested, I can send you some files I've been working on.

[@RyanMcIntyre]

Thanks for replying and offering to share your files. I haven't gotten that far yet, but could you tell me more about how you're data logging?

[@cobaltss0720]

Ryan McIntyre currently I'm running a zeitronix black box setup. But, flash tune should be coming out with a system soon, they say. That will make things a lot easier for me.

[@RyanMcIntyre]

+NoxImus Hey man, finally got around to buying a Flash Tune kit. I'm using TAD158's files with my own mods to a few tables, but it'd be nice to see what you do different. How can we share files?

[@iterm1]

Noxlmus ... i didnt recive any mail from you ... waiting for the maps

[@cobaltss0720]

I'm out of town on business, I'll have to grab them when I get home this weekend, and have access to my laptop that has the map files.

[@iterm1]

NoxImus did you manage to access the maps ......? :)

If Gods not in control then who is you or me?? Very scary just saying. My 2011 R1 is full of torque but not as much as my 2022 ZH-2.

[@Marksman2oo7]

Isn't it ironic that I came to see bike mods and ended up having to hear an atheist complain about someone talking to others about their believes?

[@cobaltss0720]

There was no reason for him to come to my home and talk to me. I even told him I didn't want to talk to him, and he would not leave me alone. Typically bible thumper though, it's not the first time I've had to deal with them.

[@Marksman2oo7]

NoxImus The black forks look amazing, wish mine were black.

[@cobaltss0720]

Thanks sir. I really like the black forks as well. Get on the forums, or the Facebook group R1 Owners. I'm an admin there, we can find you someone to swap with.
