- In this video I go over what to expect when you purchase or own a Yamaha R1 in the city. My R1 is a 2018 and her name is Nebula, and I love her to death. But....... This may be the last R1 I will ever purchase. To find out why please watch the video. Ride safe my friends!

The Yamaha R1 is like a drug. I already have a fourth. RN12, RN32, RN49 and now RN65 R1M. I will be 67 years old and still enjoy the power, acceleration and sound.
I agree with your point very much. I owned a liter gixxer. It was fun I loved the bike, but
1. It gets boring to drive within speed limits unless you are a speed demon.
2. I miss it, but I realize I would buy another super sport if only I decided to do track days at least twice a month.
3. It felt a bit stupid that I couldn’t twist the wrist more than 10% to stay within reasonable speed in the city.
Happy owner of MT09 SP now. I think I am driving on average in 20%-70% power range and feels like I am driving this bike as it was meant to be.
The two things I will forever miss that super sport has:
1. Teleportation to any part of the road at any gear. Especially at higher speeds.
2. Aerodynamics.
Man I feel exactly the same! Great feedback 🙏 thank you for watching the channel ❤️
Love sportbikes for long trips. Gives you some space to truly gun it from time to time. For city work...........they absolutely suck. Usable. But suck. Mostly cause of the heat.
They make the gas tank small to save weight to race, they make the seat thin and uncomfortable so you can feel what the rear tire is doing, to race. This is a track bike through and through.
Totally agree. You really have to try hard to keep it at the posted speeds and even then it just feels like you're going way too slow. What makes it worse is the exhaust (Austin racing decat) note at high RPM is extremely addictive.
Best looking R1 I’ve ever seen. I wasn’t a big fan of this generation but yours stands out amongst the rest. So we’ll put together that one can not help but admire her.
Thank you bro 🙏 I appreciate the love always!
I am in the market for an R7 and I found an R1 at the same price. I climbed on and I’m still shook. I can’t believe people are brave enough to pull the trigger on that. I thought I’m good but I’m properly scared😅😅😅
I have a 2022 R1 and love it! (this is my second R1 to own). And, I have to agree with YamaYari about the cons. However, it gives me a ton of joy to ride!
First to like 👍 I'm here brother
Great content as always and fellow 22 Mt09 owner! Also I’m in the Orlando area and always looking for some backroads like these. What general area is this, like wekiva or Sanford?
Hey Jonathan. I live in Debary. So most of these roads are North east of lake Monroe. Basically across the lake from downtown Sanford.
I own a 2020R1 I'm a YAMAHA guy I love my R1 I haven't flash my R1 even out of the factory is fast really fast some guys are telling me wait to you flash this thing is going to be a complete different animal they say to me if you think is fast is going to be even faster I love the way it looks the way the engine Sounds like no other but you right on your point of view For the flash I'm going with Nick Marino he is really good on the R1's most of the people love his flash and the Dyno fine tune he is the guy to go see for flash and fine tune but yes the R1 is to much for the Streets and Canyon Road's Take care be safe out there GOD Bless you
i can’t decide between the R1 or a S1000 any issues with yours?
my buddy has a ‘13 R1 and his always has starting issues.
@user-wq5tk8mp9s I don't have any issues with my R1 I like what YAMAHA did to the 2020 is a complete different engine compared to 215 to 2019
The BMW Ducati Aprilia has issues those bikes are cool but most of the time they are on Service department the Japanese you enjoy the bike more compared to the European's
Dude, I have an 2018 too. Absolutely love it bro. Best color scheme fo sho. None of that lame gray accents like the later models🫤
Absolutely! Best color indeed. I get many compliments like I’m sure you do too. What exhaust are you running?
@@yamayari8351 Hi dude. I still have the cat fitted at the moment but I have an Arrow Indy Race titanium end can. Beautiful bit of kit👍🏻
I just got a 2022 MT-09 SP...and it's a first bike. I love that it has rider aids, but I know I need to ride responsibly and slowly learn to ride it! When/Where will I ever be able to do 180 MPH?, or do 140 MPH? (top speed of the MT-09 SP) Super Sports look cool af, but I bet the naked bikes get more smiles per mile.
Absolutely! I love my R1 even though I complain a lot about it lol but the MT 09 always puts a smile on my face and is very FUN! Naked bikes for the win!
I love my 2019 R1
Is good to obey the speed limit. 😘
Been watching your videos from the beginning. Would love an r1 but can't afford it. If you decide to sell and pass along a good deal let me know. I'm retired on fixed income. How many miles on it?
16,000
I definitely will keep you posted.
You know what, I literally lust for the Yamaha R1. And I’m a rider who is of your age group and rides like you. I have an MT09 SP, thanks to you, which I bought after seeing your videos. But I have a question. When you ride the R1 at low speeds, does it feel like riding a Jack hammer?
Lol 😂 jack hammer at times. I did have the suspension adjusted to help with that but yes. At times it’s a ruff ride for sure. Probably why most long rides I’m super sore afterwards. Thank you for watching the Channel 🙏
Any liter bike is a beast. But getting older and being comfortable is the exact reason why I ended up with an MT-09 and not a super sport
Facts!
I was expecting Sam Kinison to scream at me.
The only thing that bothers me is the first gear being too long for high traffic roads, and that is a common issue with sports bikes when used to commute, if I buy another bike it will be a bmw gs1250, but keeping my r1😁
osteen and Otown holler
Must be an "s" model for that price.
Actually it’s just a R1. Not the S, you can tell by the color and vin number. It was just a really really good deal. Lucky me I guess lol thank you for watching and for the feed back.
Sell it!! BMW 1000RR is what you need.
Do you own one? Is it comfortable????
@@yamayari8351 No, I do not. I have a 2022 Kawasaki Z400 and I had a 2022 yellow Kawasaki Z125pro that was hit by a Tesla.
@@kawasakizfanboy1039 love you Art lol I should have know It was you lol
@@kawasakizfanboy1039 Dude,.you high homes??
@@LeeTillbury I’m actually friends with YamaYari. I was just messing with him.
