Yamaha YZF R1M - Downtown Run

Pure sound of the crossplane R1! There’s nothing like it!

beautiful crossplane machine

[@jamesaranda1451]

do the gears (especially 1st gear) feel taller on the R1M vs the Aprilia RSV4? Or would you say the R1M is more fun & suitable for the street?

[@PilotlifePOV]

The gears are extremely tall on the aprilia. I had to feather that thing all the way to near 20mph… this was the rsv4 1100 factory (2020) ; i haven’t rode the new aprilia. R1 feels like any other liter bike.

Amazing video quality! Can I ask what you use for sound? Zoom H1 of sort looks to be among the popular ones.

[@PilotlifePOV]

I use a $20 mic from Amazon and just put it close to my exhaust ! Movo ACM 400 is the name.

[@DocciMoto]

insane video quality man. love how that thing looks 🔥🔥🔥

[@PilotlifePOV]

Thank you! Changed the audio up a bit and also just ordered the new gopro so gonna get some footage from that bad boy coming soon ! Looking to do image stabilization while running ND filters. I believe it’s possible running at higher frames per second so we shall see 💯

[@DocciMoto]

@ape_rider definitely noticeable the audio is really crisp. Also thinking about upgrading to the 11 from my 7 huge jump for me.

[@PilotlifePOV]

@@DocciMoto yeah I’m rocking the 8; im just losing so many damn ND filters it’s flying off my camera since they’re magnetic on the 8… But anyhow thanks again !

[@AnonymousSource0]

absolutely. it's unique. i can sit on a porch and say "that's an R1" with confidence. my ears aren't tuned enough for all the other bikes yet.

Yeah, seeing this never gets old.
