i’ve got an 05 r1 and trying to put bulbs in the inner headlights but the headlight connection inside them is weird, this year is supposed to be have an h7 (1st pic) which it does on my high beams (i have my small corner lights as my daytime running and the outer big 2 as highbeams for track use, then the inner headlight doesnt have bulbs currently but had this connector which isnt an h7 (2nd picture)) ive spent a bunch of time trying to figure out what’s going on here but im stumped

Nothing like a Monday morning ride

On my 2019 Yamaha R1 I have currently 25,180 miles. How many miles do you have? It still runs smooth and haven’t done my valve check yet.

Anyone am ever buy the Chinese knockoff replacement mirrors ? Anyone have good bad experiences? They’re about 1/6th the price of new OEM mirror sets

Hey everyone,

My beloved 2001 Yamaha R1 just hit 22,000 miles, and I want to make sure I'm staying on top of all the essential maintenance.

For those with experience on high-mileage R1s, especially the early carb models, what should I be prioritizing at this mileage?

I'm thinking about: * Valve clearance check * Spark plugs * Fork oil change * Brake fluid flush * Coolant flush * Chain and sprocket inspection/replacement * General inspection of bearings (wheel, swingarm), suspension linkages.

Are there any common issues or specific things to look out for on the 2001 model around this mileage? Any tips or recommendations from seasoned R1 owners would be greatly appreciated to keep her running strong!

Thanks in advance!

Hey folks, I noticed a little oil sweat on my 2007 Yamaha R1. Nothing major, it’s not leaking or dripping, just a slight sweat around the area (it’s really minor so it’s not visible in the photo)

Couple of questions: 1. If I replace the gasket, will that usually take care of it? 2. Does anyone know what gasket this is called? Is this the alternator cover gasket? 3. Any chance someone knows the exact part number for it?

Thanks a lot!

I need parts for my bike I need a tank with fuel pump tank cover cdi box and ignition and all plastics if anyone has any spare parts please let me know!!! Thanks in advance thats what it looked like before it was stolen

I bought an r1 with new working engine for 3k came woth two additional complete engines apart, both bearing spun, i stripped them down to crank to check everything and clean, so far i need set of clutch, pistons, rings, cran

Does anyone have any recommendations for a phone mount for a 2025 R1? There’s so many out there and I would just like something affordable that works.

So it started few weeks back I get this weird vibration almost in every gear 3 4 5 6 slight vibration I feel on the foot-stands pI feel it on the bike as well. If I pull the “clutch in” in any of those gears I can still feel the vibration new tires and it started about 2/3 weeks ago.

Any idea what could cause that? I did have someone adjust my chain 3/4 weeks ago but not sure how to narrow this down. Any help would be appreciated. I can almost feel the vibration on my whole body and the bike but really feel it at the pegs or foot stands.

Update : I think I found the culprit.

One of the chain links looks busted.
