Upgrade Alert: 2024 Yamaha R1 - Step up to the FINAL R1? I help you decide!

[@Brotatochip96]

Had an R6 for 3 years, picking my new R1 up next week!

[@MaximeArseneault-jh2wb]

Have a r6 ( for sale) for 2 years picking up that one on video on Saturday 😅

[@ving7383]

Congrats, well done sire, Enjoy🎉

[@Alic_R1]

How are you liking it?

[@dchained_1]

@@MaximeArseneault-jh2wbCongratulations 🎉 Ride safe! I bought my a few days ago.

[@normanlacasse7831]

I own a 2024 R1 you are 100 percent accurate sir; not a beginner bike; very raw and brutal

[@MichealKeys16]

im buying it for a first bike tbh im just worried im gonna get a 600 and get used to it too quick and regret my decision

[@IzekEspinoza]

@@MichealKeys16 you should get a 400 first honestly. But a 600 is more than enough bike. Anyone that says you need a 1000 only goes straight for a half mile.

[@ChokolateSushi23]

@@MichealKeys16 A 600 is more than enough for anybody that isn’t 6’6” 300lbs+. I ride a 1000, and still enjoy a 600 very much. A 600 is plenty, and if you’re “too comfortable” its time to find the limits on a track with it.

[@SGrazziani13]

Why brutal ?

[@Dannyyzeee]

Rest in peace R1. so glad ive got one before they spike in prices.

[@jamesaquino3595]

I appriciate you giving us valuable detail of a information of the bike. It’s rare to see a channel that give’s knowledgable information of a bike, it really does do help to does people that are new in this field. You earned a new subscriber!🤝🏻

[@PeterLoweOne]

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts! I also really appreciate the subscription!

[@JeroenFleer]

It’s gonna be mine soon !! Nice review

[@MaximeArseneault-jh2wb]

Sorry it's mine

[@dchained_1]

I was so damn lucky so I could buy one of the last R one in Germany a few days ago.I am so excited, can’t wait for the season to begin. Thank you for your vid man!

[@BlackArroToons]

Thanks for the news and review on the last R1. I've only ridden it in video games, but it looks like a great bike with a good track record. Thanks!

[@kevinb3189]

Hey Peter, I ordered the R1 last week. In anticipation of them being discontinued I jumped on ordering on. Who knows the used ones down the road may become expensive. Ive ridden tall my life but this is my first 1000cc bike. Looks really nice in your video.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Yeah, I think some of these true liter bikes are going to retain a lot of value for some people. I can predict the future, so never take my word on future values, but these types of bikes aren't going to be around much longer, especially the inline 4 cylinders.

[@boywonderrr71]

R9 for me if it ever comes out. Im getting the MT 09SP 24 for now. I will try to get a test ride on the R9 and see if my hip flexors can handle the SS riding triangle.

[@KimmyR3]

12:57 this is also very useful on just normal roads. wrong suspension settings could make road cracks feel nothing or your introduction to what a tank slapper is.

[@ChokolateSushi23]

443lbs is kinda heavy to worry about putting in a smaller display to “save weight.” Each trim/package of the current S1000RR is lighter than that with a huge screen

[@PeterLoweOne]

Yeah, that's probably fair. It's small because it's old is probably a more realistic guess.

[@ChokolateSushi23]

@@PeterLoweOneI think that’s more accurate. At the time I remember it being pretty slick. Nobody really had anything like it except for Ducati. Everybody has finally had time to catch up and Yamaha probably figures since there will be no new, updated R1, it’s more cost effective to focus efforts elsewhere. That’s just my opinion at least. Still an excellent machine and I’ve been pondering one. The sound is intoxicating

[@Supersnakeridah]

Great review very knowledgeable about yamaha r1 👍👌

[@Misoo_Boy]

Could you do a full review for the Yamaha R1M? Really appreciated!

[@PeterLoweOne]

If I can get my hands on it, I'll review it.

[@Misoo_Boy]

@@PeterLoweOne you are by far the most detailed motorcycle reviewer. Keep it up!!

[@wIndstar47]

I will never be getting a yamaha 900cc Motorcycle. Never why yamaha will stop making a 1000cc I don't know, but I will not be getting a 900cc. 1000cc Motorcycles 🏍 are the pinnacle bikes 🏍 of all major motorcycle brand companies. This is a must-have ...............

[@travis2511]

I'd say your right on. Im also 6 foot but 34 inch inseam and I can easily fat foot all 1k

[@abinashswain451]

Please do review the 2024 yamaha R3 and if possible do a comparison video with the Kawasaki Ninja 400/500..

[@PeterLoweOne]

I haven't seen the 2024 R3 or the 2024 Ninja 500 yet, but I'll definitely make videos on those bikes, very likely more than one. Stay tuned.

[@marleymar91]

I thought it was only discontinued in Europe

[@PeterLoweOne]

That may be the case, I'm hearing that North America may not fall far behind in that. But I don't know for sure.

[@MaximeArseneault-jh2wb]

Discontinued in Europe, emissions are good till 2028 in USA. Most likely be same bike till than in US but Canada doesn't always follow suit Example Honda cbr600rr not available from new in Canada but it is in US

[@moremoney2]

If true, your point us well taken concerning emissions, but try finding a new bike at a Yamaha dealership. I would guess that Yamaha, just like Suzuki, has already decided which direction they are going. It may continue to be sold in North America, but production numbers will be limited if they haven't already stopped. IMO, the R1 is dead, unless the political climate changes and the restrictions are lifted, but change comes slowly. If you own an R1, enjoy it and take care of it.

[@obigamer231]

hi, how about compare Zx10r, very confuse to choose between those 2

[@PeterLoweOne]

I've reviewed a 2023 ZX-10R and can probably do a 2024 soon. Stay tuned.

[@dannyperfect9270]

Awesome, useful review

[@harrypersaud9422]

Great video sir

[@dougiequick1]

Your statement re the brakes is NOT true ....these are floating Rotors (NOT "floating calipers" like you said around 4:13) in fact they are only SEMI floating ROTORS not even true full floaters basically I think of em as pretend floaters because those "rivets" are very TIGHT not loose like true floaters on race bikes and any wel appointed european Sportbike... bikes you can spin the individual "rivets"and they spin with your fingers and even rattle ....BTW the slop in TRUE full floating rotors is much more about the ability of the calipers to grab the rotors efficiently and precisely despite the warp and wander allowing more of the friction to convert to actual stopping power than pretend floaters can...the OEM types are quieter I understand but not race spec....BTW I replaced my damaged MT-10 "road bike" forks with R1 forks and guess what? pretty much identical to the MT-10s forka if you compare individual part numbers of all the components in fact all sorts of other things are the same between the models. The R1 is a price point cheapo version of an R1 race spec bike.....faster than MT-10 for sure because lighter engine internals allow hp to develop via rpm where the cheaper still MT-10 forgoes the titanium rods and valves and caps the power at 165ish rather than close to 200hp Average street rider is better off with MT-10 and will save a ton of money too! and even more on insurance! Typical street rider will NEVER exploit what the MT-10 is capable much less the R1! Especially if you are never gonna take to do racing or just track days! OR you live in the many many areas where there are NO twisty roads to even enjoy a sport bike to begin with! One sacrifices so very much to ride a full faired liter sportbike simply because one likes the way they LOOK ....

[@PeterLoweOne]

I misspoke. 🤷‍♂️

[@dougiequick1]

Why do all the racers tear off those electronic Ohlins on the M and replace with manual adjustment Ohlins? WTH? ALL that money in the MSRP and it is sub par?

[@LeeTillbury]

Its only being discontinued in Europe.

[@edgarv.611]

Not only. Only for the race track from 2025 on

[@christopheunvoas-tz9qm]

Bon commentaire, j'ai la même en noir, magnifique, pas pour les amateurs, salut ✌️

[@HotSizzleTV_]

Please tell me they will make these in USA I heard they will stop. I know now Europe they did I just hope not USA I could care less for Europe but man this would suck if they stop

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm hearing it's just Europe for now. So we're good in North America for a while.

[@HotSizzleTV_]

@@PeterLoweOne god I hope so I really do this would suck so much

[@djgene5029]

They are discontinued in Europe ONLY due to emission non compliance.

[@PeterLoweOne]

Yup. I had bad information. My people are telling me that its days could also be numbered here, but for now it’s still available.

[@Richie-vu4we]

R1 prices will rise as who wants a R9 when you can have a R1

[@dougiequick1]

MT-10 has pretty much all the same electronics including the IMU

[@varun3597]

IMU - Inertial measurement unit

[@PeterLoweOne]

Haha! One of those things that I know, but for the life of me, I couldn't come up with it while I was filming! Thanks!

[@unjustkatana]

When they finally made good bikes, they will discontinue them.

[@leamondtaylor825]

Typical isn't it!!!

[@dougiequick1]

The R9 will be so much a better bike for the typical rider that does not even race Actually too bad Yamaha failed to bring the XSR900GP to the US....that would be fine if you ask me

[@mikedaniels9331]

Gonna be a Yamaha R 1 2025 coming out for the year of 2025 so don’t jump the gun we got another year after 2024. We’ll see the new 2025 or one I promise.

[@mikedaniels9331]

I meant the R1 Yamaha bike for 2025

[@ChrisW-fj8bt]

They are only stopping in Europe. USA USA USA🎉🎉🎉

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm from Canada 🇨🇦 but I hope we see it continues here for a while longer. There is no guarantee with bikes like this. The 4 cylinder sport bike is a lot like the 8 cylinder car. (the end is likely near across the world)

[@sbeast1216]

SHUT UP!! HE'S FILMING!!

[@dennisgibb7958]

It is not the last unless you live in a EURO 5 emissions country. Stop lying.

[@PeterLoweOne]

I'm not lying. There is definitely a rumour that it will be the end. If you watch the video you'll see that I'm not sure exactly what the rumours say, but there is a difference between a lie and unclear information. Also, my videos get worldwide views so that's true for at least parts of my audience, according to you.

[@MaximeArseneault-jh2wb]

The R1 is euro 5 compliant... Not euro5+. It will be compliant in the US till 2028 but here in Canada we don't always have the US market cause the demand is not there Example Honda cbr600rr available in US not canada

[@250ignacio]

It doesn't come witht a fuel gauge! I cant belive it... Squids will tell me "its for saving weight" or whatever, but IT COMES WITH A BLOODY SIDESTAND AND LIGHTS, AND PLATE HOLDER ETC... Yeah its a Superbike I get it, but its a STREET superbike, so where the hell is the fuel gauge?? Sucks that if you own one you´ll have to "calculate" the remaining fuel. Pain in the ass.
