The Looks, the Growl from the Crossplane, good enough speed and now it's to become a collectors items with the end of production. I'm getting an R1.
Your content is great. Always cracks me up while still being educational af!
I bought a 2008 Aprilia sxv450 that I'm eventually going to track as I need 5 years to clear my drivers record before I'm insurable.
Definitely looking into a Tuono or MT10 later on down the road. Would love to see some content on those. Maybe so supermoto & duelsport stuff too
What a refreshing vid….keep it up boss adobo 👌
Awsome video..thanks for the head up of r1 vs r1m. I thought im the only one notice that…keep up the good work✌🏻
we realized it in 2015. the r1 forum ate the r1m alive
Love your videos bro keep it up
Thanks! Will do!
Not paying an extra 10k for electronic suspension when A)most people will never use the bike to its full potential and B) those who do normally just use regular suspension anyway, like you mentioned, the majority of the top model super bikes, are not that much better than the normal one, except for the fire blade in my opinion. If you want a killer Yamaha track bike all you have to do is buy a normal R1 and just do a track conversion for a lot less than $10,000 more than what a regular R1 would cost
Agreed. I have a 2021 cbr1000rr, and the difference between it, the triple r, and the triple r SP is absolutely insane.
Adobo the kinda guy to buy the newest grom for the 5 speed and then not use 5th gear
ayeee i can't believe you hae a grom, i own a grom too and i come from the uk, i love how small groms are and how easy they are to wheelie, lane splitting with groms is the easiest too, the only thing i have against groms is engine size, it sounds ridiculous but i feel like 125ccs aren't fast enough to get you out a spot of danger if you happen to find yourself in one, great video adobo moto tho, love from the UK
Nice!! I agree. That’s why im doing the 149 big bore kit
@@adobomoto sounds awesome, i was thinking about doing that too but because of the UK's laws about engine ccs and stuff i wouldn't be able to do it without getting messed up by the law, would absolutely love to see a video on that engine swap if you don't mind filming one ? :D
Totally agree with Adobo ... I was always confused.about why people buy R1m ..
Holy. You drove forever on the Grom. 😂 Nice...I'll have to watch the vid again. Watching you ride, I got lost with what you were saying .Those road have to many memories for me. Lol. Good vid. I'd ride side by side. Get you some b shots. Lol
I looked at both R1s for another track bike back 2019 and made my decision with Kawasaki zx10rr as street and track use more bang for your buck but I get it with others wanting to be liked or popularly at bike night they are cool looking bike and handle pretty well with the right rider and brakes but with liter bikes today ther really close as performance goes it all comes down to personal preference
I'm still wondering why the likes haven't shot through the roof, lol I love this content. Keep it up. You are one of the last down to earth content creators on YT.
Lol, YT is still trying to figure out if you guys like me or not 😂
its def on the way, just like crash goat
This is my favourite channel.. you crack me up.. 🤣🤣
Thanks mike
My friend went from a R3 to an R1 in less than a year hope he lives long lol
Lol
Well I went from an RS125 to an R1 after 4 Years riding the RS and I'm still alive too (for now at least. Hope it stays this way)
You're so hilariously entertaining to watch lol nice work
Your username sounds like you have se x with apes. Thanks for the love man
@@adobomoto hahaha my first liter is the bike that you have; RSV4 1100 factory. That’s where I got the name from. Miss the bike just not enough dealers around to do the valves so I sold it
Good shit fam nice grom
Thanks!
For the price difference you have to add all factors of what your getting sure the carbon fiber, and wheels may cost more but we also have to take into account the price difference for engine the engine internals. I agree for the average person on the street the R1M is more of a showcase but if you do occasional track days more than the average rider then I could see the benefits.
“A dweeb on a fast ass Grom!!…full tuck” shit had me rolllin
hahahaha me too lmfao
I love my 2nd generation zx 14r. Reliable. Scary fast and a hell of a lot cheaper
The R1M is one of my dream bikes. I'm glad I was able to actually purchase a used 2017 at a steal. I love the bike for what it is. Love your videos.
If you got it for a steal then why not 🤷🏻♂️
I love how you can get people all worked up lol. Engine & wheels I’m in !! I love ‘em all just can’t afford them all lol. IMO I look at it objectively when I buy a bike, If I plan to spend money on upgrades ( normally the case ) I’d rather get base model & Spend that 9k on the upgrades I actually want, Keep the carbon I’ll take performance!! 🤟Ride your Ride 🤟
Lol, i’m just a natural born troll
What the hell do you mean “you people”? 😂
As a broke boi I found all this out when looking at bikes that i'd like to own but cant afford. Its a lot like the H2 and H2R
I actually wanna get one of those trail 125. They look so fun
The only thing about magnesium is you can scraping it and lighting it makes nice fire getting magnesium from the junkyard is the best

I got my license right next to blue still coffee bro that's dope too you in the area
Nice
Ohlins is bling. Electronic suspension in manual mode works just like manual suspension, except you adjust through your dash instead of with a screwdriver. You can also adjust the preload on them, even though the manual says you don't need to (which is a lie). I had mine adjusted professionally and I found the manual setting was much better on the track. Just more consistent feeling lap after lap. Automatic mode is great on the street though.
There’s no preload adjusters on mine, it’s just sport, track, or race and it adjusts preload electronically
@@adobomoto There is preload. You need to remove the electronic plugs on top and then you can adjust them, then put the plugs back in. It's manual. Rebound and dampening is done with the motor. The Ohlins EC2.0 does not have automatic preload adjustment. That's still done with a wrench like regular forks. Same with the shock, except with a screwdriver.
@@adobomoto also, the riding modes on the RSV4 don't feel that significant. The main thing you will feel is the amount of engine braking. I think they improved it somewhat with the '21+ versions.
You're so god damn right bro, was thinking to buy a Factory RSV4 but a regular RSV4 is the same for a road use, same with the R1...
Oh for sure. No one needs ohlins in the street. It’s a flex
@@adobomoto The gold color is nice tho 😏
I didn’t know it was you without your papi on the dash 😂
Lmao
Man this intro 🤣🤣
Worth watching just for them alone
You rode past the training center i got my m/c license.
Ive ridden my honda odyssey atvs out to that honda dealer they offered $6k trade in.
And it was rough then.
adobo providing us with the daily meals consisting of straight facts
Appreciate the love fam
Agreed 💯 R1M is over hyped. You can almost same mods regular R1 For less money. Love you video man. Keep it up
correction..parts are exactly the same as the r1. thanks fam
Can't speak for WA but in CA if the light cycles 3 times without catching you, you can run it when "safe" to do so. Maybe they should use optical cameras instead of the shitty magnetic strips.
Couple things you need for the grom!!!!
1- clutch jet! If ya no, ya no…. Lol
2- quick shift
I need more of your personality in my life
Bro you are riding in S***way area. I live here. That coffee shop you went too is where 4 Police Officers were murdered in cold blood. Used to go there on my way to work.
Gotta look out for you as my commute is S***way loop racetrack lol. WA drivers are so lead footed.
Love your attitude and how you tell it like it is. Love your choice of machinery also! Keep the rubber side up my friend. I used to RR in California when I was stationed at Castle AFB near Merced, Ca. IMO Cal is the best place to ride. I too like you said dont have many friends that ride. My beautiful Filipino wife was trying to set me up with either a ZX14 or Busa. I am too old too race and act crazy anymore (otherwise I would have me a Duc) so sport touring is good enough.

Retired AF from JBLM
Right on John.
And yeah, it’s a great coffee shop. I come here frequently, I know the story and spoken with the owner a few times. Thanks for the support!
@@adobomoto Have not been there since that day. Ill have too stop by one of these days.
second hand prices on r1 - r1m for 2020 here in the uk is about a £3k difference so i am going with the r1m because i wont be able to fit fgrt forks and a ttx rear shock and some carbon fairings for 3k. The wheels are a p.i.t.a to clean inside the spokes and i hate them. Got my 2020 r1m for a reasonable price though and it was less than the brand new standard model 2023 r1 which is still the same model as the 2020.
At the end of the day, i wish manufacturers would make a standard bike with no electronic aids apart from quick shift and auto blipper and a slipper clutch and drop the price by £5k. Electronics package should be an extra option you would buy.
Pare, one question for you, do you ever consider riding in a cruiser?
Owned two
as a r1m owner its a show peace i got mine used 2019 for the price of a new "base" r1 and it was really low millage and i didnt have to pay Hawaii shipping or taxes couldn't be happier
Same. Bought my r1m for 15k cash. 300 miles
That lil bike is nice but It not available here in Philippines.
Lol It's not a true aboto video without the "gee wizz" HAHA LOVE IT!
Holy canoli!
I disagree. The Ducati Panigale V4 is worse. OK may be it'll beat my 600RR but I really don't need 200 mph very often. They are WAY overpriced when compared to Honda and Yamaha. The maintenance will cost you a months pay. My Honda is much more reliable and just as much fun. OK bring on the Trolls.
I own a Panigale V4s and you could not be more wrong and i've owned both a cbr600rr and cbr1000rr
You got honda Toyota they take you from point A to B .. N THEN YOU GOT lamborghini you pay for gas you pay for tickets on the way but you pay to pay for anything that's worth it that's the point.. to own those bikes you need to be a baller and that's why nobody random can get them either.. may God bless everyone too afford them but then they won't be DUCATIS they will be called honda.. v4 owner here.. sorry to say the facts
Pardon my typing at work..
@Affan Arif you legit can get from point A to point B with a Lamborghini, anyone who doesn't track their Lamborghini is literally doing just that. You not need to be a "baller" to own a Ducati. I'm a regular ass dude, and I own one.
I don't know who to argue with first...so you're all wrong fkers! lmfaoooo love you guys
what about r1m vs s1k? im looking to get one or the other 2018+. currently have a 05 r1 an want something newer but also way better. Also bike would be daily.
110% agree, I have regular R1 2021…. It’s the best
Whats your moto vlog setup
Gopro 9, mic adapter, sony mic
The R1M, also known as the Yamaha R1 Marketing edition. Exponential performance increases through the addition of the letter M, and the power of suggestion 😜👍‼️
lmfaooooooo I hate you! I forgot to mention that and I was trying to. I'm a marketing/branding professional too. I guess I suck at my job
Well you get a ton of high quality factory carbon.
Definitely a regular R1 for me bro. Not sure about over in the US but over here in the uk 🇬🇧 i find Yamaha are over priced in general especially the R1M crazy money!!
Absolutely. I paid r1 money for my r1m
R1M is actually one of my dream bikes but I totally agree, it is just an overpriced and overhyped R1 with Ohlins bling, data logger (let’s be honest 99% of us wont even need/use) and carbon fiber fairings 🤣
Snag an r1 and put whatever you want on it!!
I've owned both. 2015 Base model R1 and 2015 R1M. I 100% agree with 98% of what you've said. They are pretty much the identical bike. Suspension, Rear tyre, CCU, & Carbon fairings. I don't count the polished swinger/tank it's just paint. That's it. The price difference here in Aus. $25k AUD for base, R1M $30k AUD(I Paid $25k in 2024). So worth the extra $$ in 2015 yes. Now, It's about the same. The 2020+ R1M has more carbon but I don't think I could spend the $40K AUD now.
Your WSBK comment true but that's comparing apples to oranges as the bikes are , should be quoting on the Superstock. ASBK(Australian Superbikes) use the R1M for the first number of years but half the time they just swap out the swing arm to make it look like an R1M :P
Just ordered a 2023 R1M, going to watch the video now and see if I regret it…
It’s still cool. You’ll have bragability
Semi-active suspension is banned in both the WSBK and the regional SBK.
That's why WSBK Special Humaligations bikes like the M1000RR, V4R, and ZX10RR do not include the semi-active suspension.
Toprak has a regular r1.
Anyway, you don't buy bikes like the R1M or any fancier version of a bike because they are so much better; you buy them because you want something fancier and special.
If you actually race, you must get the regular model and upgrade and tune the suspension yourself.
Semi-active suspension makes more sense on the street than on a track because you can set it softer for road conditions with a click of a button.
To be fair, you can say the same about the rsv4 and the panigale v4s they both make no more power over their base model counterparts, just better wheels and electronic suspension
absolutely! that's why I always say buy the flagship that has forged wheels. the CBR and R1m don't come with forged wheels
@@adobomoto forged wheels serve little purpose than spec sheet flexing on a street bike
It doesn't really matter. If your dream bike is the R1, then you would get the R1M if you can afford it. If the price is prohibitive, a plain R1 is just fine. The reality is, factory carbon being expensive/exclusive is something that's been done on high end cars for a loooooong time. Same story - if you can afford it, you'd option it. Let's not even start with the Ohlins.
For the algorithm 😎👍🏻🔥
appreciating for the algorithm!
95% of us squids cannot ride these bikes to their full potential. I love my raw no electrons, fz09. PLENTY of juice to get in trouble but not enough to totally yard sale yourself. While not totally emptying the bank lol.
Been enjoying your vids. First local guy I’ve stumbled upon. I’m in Kitsap/port orchard.
dude I had an fz09 too..wheelie machine
Squid Tips would like to see you....
Feel ya on the don't have any riding friends. I'd ride with ya anyday
Thanjs
Let’s say the r1 and the r1m were the same price, would you buy the regular r1 or r1m?
Next question. This one is dumb bro
Dam I thought I was closer to the front or first‼️‼️
But any way that's why we watch and listen to you cause you are most definitely tied into the mainstream bike 🏍 stuff more than any one else ‼️🏍‼️‼️‼️ ➕️
You know your shit‼️‼️ on top of all of that you also know that a peirce of carbon fiber doesn't make the bike faster or better suspension 😉 ‼️‼️ put a skilled rider on both and time's will almost be the same ‼️😉✅️💸‼️
hahaha, true. but I also bought into the hype once...learn from my experience, or mistakes hahahahaha thanks for the love frank
@Adobo Moto you're welcome and you be killing it 👏 ⚡️👏👍⚡️👍⚡️👍
Do a video on Flash, or not to flash your motorcycle.
I did on shorts, but I will for long
What about V4S and V4R??
Naaagh you’re wrong I’ve seen heaps of dudes on YT with R1’s saying their always “gettin’ gapped” by R1M’s 😬☘️🤟
Lol
Where's the "Adobros" intro?
hahaha, we're not doing that long term
I wouldn’t say the wsbk bikes are close to the road versions, they look similar but that’s about it for example topraks factory bike has pieces welded to the actual frame to change the the frames characteristics along with a longer swing arm engine on steroids, suter clutch etc they’re really completely different bikes
I said the ones we ride are closer to superstock not superbike. That’s a class in world superbike.
There is no superstock class in wsbk anymore (2018) You did not comment past tense.....
Ang Adobo napapanis din pag tumatagal na -"Sheyee"
the r1m is the type of bike to wear lululemon fairings
Jaboiii! And yes I agree it fr is lol just get a normal R1.
Happy mothers day dad! 😂🤣
😂
Did you check out the CRF300L?
no, one of my buddies kinda sold me on a WR surprisingly while I was there lmfao
@@adobomoto oh hell yeah, those are sick!
R1> R1M. In terms of price/value. The only reason i considered buying a r1 before, was simply the engine. And guess what, both have the same one, so yeah. r1 ftw
Haha the same thing for the 2014 hp4 and s1ks lol
Lmfao..yeah the hp4 from 2014 was proving ground for the 2015 😂
Now I know what makes the R1 the best option than the R1M. It really is cheaper lmaoo 🤣
😂😂😂😂
All the arguments your making against the R1M could be made against the RSV4 factory. Except the factory has even less changes from the base RSV4. It basically just has electronic suspension and different graphics for $8k more.
Im a yamaha guy but the only thing worth paying the same price is the honda rrr-sp
Im a fan of it. Wish it came with forged wheels
I never understood the hype behind newer R1s to be honest. I mean yeah, it has a different crankshaft and sounds different but that's all.
The crossplane was made to win races in corner exit. It’s probably the most underpowered in terms of HP but it proved it’s worth in 2020. Bmw is still trying
Agree! Buy the standard. Build “superbike” you want.
I'd rather buy a base r1 and dump the 9k I saved in parts lol
Yup
yo, back in 2008-2010, i followed this group of Philippinos living in USA, they rides in a group, were u in the group, the owner of the youtube was medium long hair, got married in 2010
Nope
@@adobomoto i miss that channel bro, he was one of the top motorcycle blogger back then, pardon me it was 2006-2010, i remember his frontyard grass was overgrown hahaha, his wife was preggy n he blogged it,.. if your circles knows him letme know ok... i wonder if he's still active.
i wished a lot of people in here a happy mothers day
I’m 45, I have a ninja 400, I’m too old to be in that riding position, I would buy that Yamaha Fz1 for under 5k!!
Spoken like a true Aprilla owner 😂
😂😂😂
what’s everyone’s opinion on the R1S
Just get an r1
Wheres that picture of Kay
Of who?
@@adobomoto Dam, I thought that was iamkay. My apologies, lol
The carbon fiber and the suspension worth the $29,000 🫡🥳
R1M is my Dream Bike. it is and will always be. this is not because of any experience. the thing why it is my dream:
- it is a dream so money doesnt matter in a dream
- i am just obsesed with the Brand Yamaha
so you see. there isnt much of arguments. for me it is a personal thing to Love this bike. The Looks, the Sounds, The Paintjob, The Brand Yamaha.
it is a super personal thing for me.
Imo I like the bikes from ducati and R1. But I hate there sounds. I don't like the v engine sound at all. I like the typical inline 4 sound. Like my zx10r makes. But anyway it's all personal opinion.
Call me a relic or whatever. I paid $4300 for my 2001 Champions Edition. The last of the carbed R1s takes a giant shit on the R1M imo, and it takes more rider skill to not smear yourself all over the scenery. A fairly inexperienced rider can manage to survive a ride on an R1M with all the electronic nannies on it.
That bike is a unicorn. Hang onto it forever.
@@adobomoto That is exactly why I searched for a year to find 1. So glad you like it!
Bike in the US is so damn cheap. R1m could cost me over $70k in asia.
Came here for the arguments
Pew pew
Bell End 🍺🏴
Take the grom on a highway trip
Maybe big bore kit first
Haha ninja engine swap to grom🥳

Very unlike Fireblade and SP Fireblade
S1000rr m package vs m1000rr
Agreed
I will say IAM DISAPPOINTED with Yamaha pricing there R1 (R1 and R1M) period as much as a base model Hyundai .. THATS WHAT PISSES ME OFF ...
Rsv4 gang stay strong!
It's a flex
Was raised by an asian mom...thats tough.
me too..look how I turned out haha
