Lightweight Race Wheels & Fairings! - 2023 Yamaha R1 Track bike build - Palmer Performance - Part 8

Part 8 of our new Yamaha R1 track bike build for Trade Watches UK.
In this video we've got some brand new Dymag race wheels to fit up with the Brembo discs and get in to the bike.
We also get all the bodywork fitted (with some trimming) and carbon frame and swingarm covers.
Thanks for watching 😁

It's a real privilege to build bikes as trick as this for my customers 🙂

@@PalmerPerf_ I would love to build one myself if I had the time and funds to do so

[@juamerF]

I always wonder to know, why does race bikes only have lever guards protectors on the right side of the bike?

[@PalmerPerf_]

Because if you touch another bike with your clutch lever it's no problem. The lever guard is mainly there to make sure the brake lever doesn't get accidentally knocked and cause a crash by locking the front wheel.
