We Took Our Motorcycles to a Dyno Day | Yamaha FZ1, R1, MT-10 on a Dyno

[@lackingpoint]

I'm surprised that the R1 didn't make more HP. Makes me even more content with my 06 FZ1. Sure it doesn't have all the rider aids and throttle settings, but that's fine. Between the performance mods, comfort mods, and suspension mods I have let then 5G tied up in the bike. Honestly as the bike is, it well out performs my abilities.

[@FocusedGarage]

09-14 R1 usually puts down 145-150 whp. US version of the R1 was restricted compared to Europe and Japan.

[@LFshlevin]

the r1 owner should be ashamed at the adjustment of his chain, also clearly has garbage tires big L

[@tipenelee]

Thanks for that, very cool :) Go the mighty FZ1 :)

[@FocusedGarage]

Always a fun time to see what power you are making!

[@MadaraUchiha-fg6pz]

I’m impressed by the fz1

[@FocusedGarage]

I was definitely pleased with those numbers!

[@RealMNreviews]

08 fz1. First bike. Iv had it 3 yrs now. Still way over my capabilities. Stupid fast. 85 in first gear for real 0 to 60 in 2.9seconds. Gray on gold wheels. Graves exhaust. Power comander. 😳 👀 👏

[@johnsenkiw430]

My 2007 Fz1 dyno’ed 136 HP , with all the goodies including a quick shifter ,and suspension tune I am have a hard time spending a ton more money for something new ...there all awesome bikes

[@FocusedGarage]

I agree! Very impressive numbers for something as old and affordable as they are.

[@willyfaded]

My 09 made the same power with all the bells and whistles. Very pleased with how responsive it is low range

[@FocusedGarage]

This one is a 2009 also!

[@gunnerscustoms]

Love my 2009 full-faired FZ1

[@FocusedGarage]

Love that look!

[@myname9252]

Another vid swaying my decision on getting an FZ1.

[@FocusedGarage]

They are great bikes!

[@Alex-hs1uf]

My 2008 FZ1 would do 90+ mph in 1st gear. It was a fabulous bike, extremely underrated.

[@FocusedGarage]

Very fun machine, that's for sure. Did you have different gearing?

[@Alex-hs1uf]

@@FocusedGarage Stock gearing.

[@sethhinton5014]

my 2014 fz1s will do 85mph at redline with stock 45 16 gearing

[@FocusedGarage]

I'll have to test mine and report back.

[@myname9252]

Yea I tripped out on that. By the time I looked down at the speedo after shifting to second ,I was already at 105. So 90 sounds about right

[@twowheelpursuits]

I've got a 2009 FZ1 that I need to get dyno to see how much power it has. It is fully uncorked and has a power commander.

[@fenderfan8543]

Pretty much what I was expecting. I have a 2010 fz1 with a flash tuned ecu, full stainless exhaust, modded airbox and a sprint filter. It will put down 147 to the rear wheel. Thats enough for me!

[@FocusedGarage]

Healthy numbers!

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

1/4 mile run times would be great to see with these three bikes. 😁

[@FocusedGarage]

Something we should have done, for sure!

[@daviddisegna7297]

that MT-10 sounds incredible!

[@FocusedGarage]

One loud boi!!!

[@FocusedGarage]

Sounds insane at high RPMs.

[@vicpnut1]

Wow the r1 at lower to mid rpm sounds like an old muscle car almost …awesome

[@vicpnut1]

Fz1 of course sounded great throughout revs….partially why I bought one 😜…in-line old school style 4 bangers rule…

[@vicpnut1]

Though I gotta say I could get use to that mt10 pretty easily 😂

[@vicpnut1]

09 fz1 ! Same as mine 😂koo

[@FocusedGarage]

Doesn't the R1 sound so cool down low? Lol

[@darinmccuistion6662]

Honestly I thought I'd see a little bit more out of the empty 10 but still impressive nonetheless I really like your video good job.

[@FocusedGarage]

We were told by the owner of the shop that this dyno is a heartbreaker and traditionally reads lower than everywhere else.

[@7777Gixer]

Not bad for the old FZ1S. I had a 2010 FZ1S as well. Loving it very much.

[@FocusedGarage]

Just completed a 2,500 mile road trip on mine!

[@davidbanks4514]

I thought the fz1 would be a lot less than the r1.

[@FocusedGarage]

This one isn't entirely stock. If it was stock it could possibly make 10 to 20 less whp.

[@lentilsouper]

@@FocusedGarage stock is 150 at the crank, a few bolt ons wouldn't give it 20bhp

[@mrboostification]

My own experience is (i own fz1n with 151,7 hp, friend has r1 also dyno tuned at the same shop as mine) mine is and feels faster on the roads there is quite some more usable torque down low. and since the public roads arent racetracks and the r1's maximum power potential is never used you will hurt the r1 owners feelings on the road with your fizzy... unless you go to the higher speeds where the r1 is king.

[@jujigatame7820]

Hi , wich mods on the FZ1 please, 137 hwp is a good number if she's stock... ;)

[@FocusedGarage]

Bike has pretty much every mod imaginable. Full exhaust, velocity stacks, filter, tune.

[@lentilsouper]

Aren't you supposed to Dyno test in 6th to try and remove gear ratio discrepancies

[@FocusedGarage]

You want to run the test in whatever gear is closest to your bike's 1:1 ratio.

[@chikoloko135]

I have a 2014 r1 and always thought (because i read) it put out around 180hp, is that to the crank? or were US versions limited?

[@FocusedGarage]

US version is limited. Usually 09-14 R1 puts down 145 -150 whp in stock form.

[@chikoloko135]

Focused Garage Is it possible to safely release the restriction? I’m trying to put the engine in a race buggy and would like to push as much as possible without jeopardizing the reliability. Thanks for the reply!

[@FocusedGarage]

There are bunch of tuners out there tuning these bikes.

[@GigaNeisser]

Well, the only problem is, that that exhaust on the FZ1 is killing the power of the bike. Mine has an Akrapovic Full Titanium Exhaust System on it.. Mine runs 148,7 hp on the dyno. Its all about the exhaust. But nevertheless, the FZ1 has the best sound of all three.

[@FocusedGarage]

That's possible the exhaust might be choking the power. However this dyno also reads very low.

[@myname9252]

Why do you say this ?

[@miketee1078]

What if it's just Str8 pipe?

[@sparks2429]

Yea crissplane crank sounds weird on a sport bike. Sounds like a ninja 650 with autotune
