im glad your starting to "mature" in the going slower and being safer then what you were doing, sick new bike, my brother juts got a r7 and its pretty fun
hell yeah, huge respect for ur decision bro. honestly I'm glad u chose to downgrade. ur just too much of a good soul to lose bro. u bring light to so much of us riders or (future riders) and we always wish u the best in your endeavors
I need people like you in my life lol. Too many Debbie downers so I just stay to myself. Edit: also agree with you. Would love to kick with him and ride one day
I'll miss the R1 but honestly idc what you ride Cam. As long as you're making content I've got a smile on my face. Do what makes you happy, because thats what makes us happy homie 💙
sad to see the r1 go but im glad its for the right reasons. Can't wait to see you on the r7 and seeing you make the bike unique to yourself. Also would be cool if maybe you did end up keeping the r1 and made it a track only bike
Bro I was so excited for this content, because I'm gonna upgrade from a 125 to a r7 in a couple of months and when I say your IG stories I was getting so hyped. Love it man!
“I just need something a little more dialed back so I don’t become another statistic” -*proceeds to wheelie 50% of the video 🤣 Love it Kam, sick ass bike definitely would love one for the track
Still wanna see R1 footage since I have the same bike. Not crazy about the R7 but I’m looking forward to seeing all the mods your gonna do to it, I’m sure it’s gonna look nice
I love the R7. Right now i have the MT07 2017, and at some point im definitely getting into the sports bikes and the R7 might be the answer. I love the looks of it!
no joke, on saturday i unfortunately lost a friend to a bike accident while we were out riding. Sunday i recorded a video just trying to talk about it and bring more awareness. One of the main points i made is that i dont want anybody to become just another statistic. The first 50 sec of this vid hit hard
Watching from down here Australia and loving your content. I’ve had a black r7 for about a year now, done a few track days and ride it when ever I can and love it, brilliant little bike. Pro tip, get some tank grips so you don’t scratch up that shiny new fuel tank. Clear coat is really soft and scratches very easily. 🔥🔥🔥 can’t wait to see more of this bike👍👍👍
That's why I got my R7. I stopped riding after my motor blew up 8 years ago on my k4 gsxr 1000 maxing it out on a highway. Very next day friend died on his cbr 1000rr. Just got the r7 to get back on the road again missing it; again with 2 wheels. So far I've done yoshimura r77 w/db killer, tstindustries hyper gtr hyper white flush signals, and JLDesigns intergrated tail lights.
I hear ya about the R1, especially as someone that likes to click through gears. Noting all it takes is first gear to be over the limit but I cant get enough of that cross plain sound
Rode a 250 for a few years and wanted something faster. Tried my buddy's '01 R6 and was like NOPE! Too easy to end up tree decoration on that thing. The R7 seems to be a bike that will satisfy my aesthetic preferences and safety as well. Earned a sub for drilling the muffler! That's exactly what I plan to do as I like the tone of the stock better than all the after market pipes that make it sound like a dirt bike. Some may like that, I don't. How do you like that sound? Ride safe!!
Facts bro I have little desire to take 200 hp to the streets, I love my little RS660 with a full SC project and UpMap it has plenty of power for me , I’m good hitting 152 🤣🤣
so far, the mods I've got for my R7, is short number plate holder, ixil hyperlow exhaust without dB killer, isn't crazy loud, but sounds great, knee tank pads on the side, would 10/10 recommend, my knees used to sliiide a lot, quadlock ofc :P windscreen switched out, nothing else really at the moment, have ridden 7.5k miles on it so far, my first bike, and I'm loving it, great for cornering, and even tho it's a sports bike, even great at low speeds!
You kno I had the same feeling when I had my R1, and then I bought the R7 knowing it was a slower step down. But I had both R1 and R7 so I didn’t really care how slow it was. But now I miss that adrenaline I used to have with my previous R1. Now just watching you explain what I too had similar thoughts of having a “Fast bike” I’m in no rush to getting and R1 again. BUT….of course, us speed demons need that fast bike…. juuuust incase lol. Enjoy that R7 bro
never ridden a 1000 before, but i know i'd go full throttle on the highway like you. that's why i've been riding 300s for a decade, i'm only alive because the top speed is 110 mph. plus its fun when you pass 600 riders in corners because you have body positioning and cornering skill dialed in. btw, you probably already know this but the stock exhaust weighs 40 pounds, you save a ton of weight if you get a full system
I feel you on that but nothing beats the torque and hp of a 1000cc that’s why I skipped the 600’s right from my ninja 250, but at the end of the day I’m just nuts and love going fast lol I don’t wanna do track days until I’m ready to club race
I'd love the R7, I think it's what I'd choose for myself if it's ergonomic enough lol, I'm a bigger rider. Definitely excited to see more content on this! Also, huge respect for your decision!
Woulda really loved to see another r6 again on the channel to dial it back from the r1 but r7 is an amazing choice and I can’t wait to see all the content u make with it brotha🤞
There's always trackdays for zoomies my guy....I'm an older rider and it took me a bit to realize it too that 100+ on the streets ain't the bizness...sick r7
I'm picking up my (black with red accent) 2015 Yamaha R1 tomorrow. It's got a full titanium Austin Racing exhaust, power commander and dyno tuned. Gonna be a BEAST
@@NudaMan I got mine for 15k with 28k miles. I live in South Dakota, so I can only ride part of the year. The high miles don’t bother me for that reason. It’s been taken care of though, that’s forsure
I absolutely love the R7. I also do believe that Yamaha could've done something engine wise to make it stand out a lil more. Tune the engine differently, maybe do something differently to bump up the power and make it distinctly different from the MT. My 09 fz6 has 98 hp and I dont need the 120 from the R6.....but if you get the R6 you get 120hp.......kinda let the MT be my FZ and make the R7 the R6. Not apples to apples across numbers but let the R version be a step up from the FZ/MT. Either way, I LOVE IT.....ive loved the bike since it came out, glad you got one. ENJOY!
Was riding through the canyons yesterday and met a dude on an r7 and that sounded nice asf. Popped a lot and was quick but doesn’t have to top speed or sound of a 600. But they are definitely awesome
im glad your starting to "mature" in the going slower and being safer then what you were doing, sick new bike, my brother juts got a r7 and its pretty fun
isn’t an r7 more like a starter bike than the r6?
@@nate.hanlon yeah
@@nate.hanlonr7 is a 2 cylinder with about 70 horsepower same thing as a mt07. The r6 is a 4 cylinder with over 100hp
😳🏁
@@nate.hanlon Yes
hell yeah, huge respect for ur decision bro. honestly I'm glad u chose to downgrade. ur just too much of a good soul to lose bro. u bring light to so much of us riders or (future riders) and we always wish u the best in your endeavors

mad respect for your maturity. so many people need to have this mentality
I'll miss the R1 but honestly idc what you ride Cam. As long as you're making content I've got a smile on my face. Do what makes you happy, because thats what makes us happy homie 💙
bro its just amazing to watch your progress as a rider all around and your one of the few motovloggers i still enjoy watching.
Hemecula isn’t a bike channel they’re a bit of everything action sports. They deserve so much more subs
End of an era, but fun move for sure, glad you’re always making the best decisions for you.
Cam - hope you see this. Just want to say mad respect. You’re a role model and speaking truth might save someone else.
Smart move 🫶🏽
sad to see the r1 go but im glad its for the right reasons. Can't wait to see you on the r7 and seeing you make the bike unique to yourself. Also would be cool if maybe you did end up keeping the r1 and made it a track only bike
Love mine. Had it over a year now. Still loving Every time I ride
Bro I was so excited for this content, because I'm gonna upgrade from a 125 to a r7 in a couple of months and when I say your IG stories I was getting so hyped. Love it man!
Damn that's a big gap😂
@@NukeRadius EU license restrictions, I'm doing the same
Ya at least it makes a sound now 😂
😂😂
Get that full Toce exhaust for it. Mine sounds nasty now 👌🏻
“I just need something a little more dialed back so I don’t become another statistic”
-*proceeds to wheelie 50% of the video 🤣
Love it Kam, sick ass bike definitely would love one for the track
Glad to se you join the R7 family, cant wait to see what you do with it
I love my r7 so far ive had it right over a year now and have not got bored of it. So hyped to see you get one man enjoy!
Damn, I remember back when I was one of the first few subscribers. I just realized you're almost to 500k. Congrats brother. You deserve this.
I for sure miss the R1, but whatever makes him happy and comfortable is what makes me smile. Love the videos.
R7 is honestly a big upgrade for so many reasons
Hey cam, just gotta say I love all the gloves you have worn maybe next video a quick show of your collection through the past years of your gloves?
Awesome bro glad you’re staying safe and being smart
Still wanna see R1 footage since I have the same bike.
Not crazy about the R7 but I’m looking forward to seeing all the mods your gonna do to it, I’m sure it’s gonna look nice
Niceeeeee R7 😎! Cant wait to see it after the wrapp and adding your splash to the bike!!
I love the R7. Right now i have the MT07 2017, and at some point im definitely getting into the sports bikes and the R7 might be the answer. I love the looks of it!
It's a really fun bike for what it is, in the last year since I've owned it, I'm about to hit 46k miles on my '22 R7. Mainly for commuting.
I remember when some dude wrecked your fz 07 , definitely nice to hear the v2 again
Massive respect . Making me think again about getting another 1000cc bike.
i just got the same bike back in February, as my first bike. i'm loving it so far, hope you enjoy the R7 too
Yes another Cp2 love to see it. Don’t let ya buddy ride this one rip fz.
the r7 is one of the prettiest bikes out rn

Congratulations on the r7 beautiful spec
I love this Video. Reminding me of the times you were rocking the fz 07
Keep up the awesome content! Only positive vibes
Luv my r7 , it's perfect for what I do , congrats n safe riding
What a superb video. Genuinely, such a high IQ line of thinking
I like the growing up talk part but then making the first thing you do it's make the exhaust louder 😂😂❤ love it

600cc sport bikes is where it’s at!!!! Super motors, dirt bikes, and fun sportsters!!!!
R7 is crazy I hope it will look as cool as the R1 and R6 Greetings from Germany ⬛🟥🟨
It’s called a track dude not that difficult to figure out, but apparently it is for you taking it to the streets
You just gotta LOVE the R7, one of my favourite bikes right now
Congrats mate! Can wait to see whats coming in these new project
Been waiting on this one yessir!! R7 gang stand up!!!!
CP2 gang on top

Support your every move and I think this is a great move bro we can’t lose you🙌🏻

i’m a yamaha fan because of you bro, you’ve convinced me 100% great content my guy keep up the good work
An R7?? let's goo killa, awesome choice for your channel.
Congrats!
I hear ya about the R1, especially as someone that likes to click through gears. Noting all it takes is first gear to be over the limit but I cant get enough of that cross plain sound
lets gooo bro! i recognized almost every road you were on! im on those all the time with my blue r7. would be sick to run into you someday!
Rode a 250 for a few years and wanted something faster. Tried my buddy's '01 R6 and was like NOPE! Too easy to end up tree decoration on that thing. The R7 seems to be a bike that will satisfy my aesthetic preferences and safety as well.

Your content is just getting better and better ❤️
This is such a good thing to mention
I was waiting for this day 😍
i picked my white r7 up last saturday and love it
DUDE HAS A R1 R6 AND A R7 🤯🤯🤯
i‘d recommend u a r6 throttle tube install, so u dont have to turn ur hand as much
CP2 baby! Excited for an exhaust to go on there
I hope you have happy and good adventures with this new bike, I look forward to new videos of crazy rides on this bike. ❤
Facts bro I have little desire to take 200 hp to the streets, I love my little RS660 with a full SC project and UpMap it has plenty of power for me , I’m good hitting 152 🤣🤣
I just commented about the rs660. I feel like it's a better bike for experienced riders, the r7 is cool but not enough power
Been looking at getting an R7❤
That crossplan 2 will sound incredible when you get the exhaust on, cant wait
so far, the mods I've got for my R7, is short number plate holder, ixil hyperlow exhaust without dB killer, isn't crazy loud, but sounds great, knee tank pads on the side, would 10/10 recommend, my knees used to sliiide a lot, quadlock ofc :P windscreen switched out, nothing else really at the moment, have ridden 7.5k miles on it so far, my first bike, and I'm loving it, great for cornering, and even tho it's a sports bike, even great at low speeds!

Did i miss it or the R6 is gone? 🤔
Woulda really loved to see another r6 again on the channel to dial it back from the r1 but r7 is an amazing choice and I can’t wait to see all the content u make with it brotha🤞
bouta get that fz-07 vibe going again YEEAAAA BUDDYYY!!!
dark theme hype rocket would be gnarly
Dang you can do wheelies right away?! I thought you had to do a clean air mod first..thats coo 🤙🏽
I NEED THE B-ROLE SOUND TRACK PLEASE WITH THE ID
I’ve got the 60th anniversary edition and I love it. Not fast but not too slow. I have a full SC project exhaust and it is so loud.
There's always trackdays for zoomies my guy....I'm an older rider and it took me a bit to realize it too that 100+ on the streets ain't the bizness...sick r7
Love you bro!!!❤
Post more R7, I just got one and I want to watch my favorite UA-camer on my favorite bike😁😁👍👍
I’m getting this bike next month exited af🥳
just subbed bro, im looking foward to buying an r7 in the near future. hope to see a lot of r7 content!
"A man never truly escapes his past. People tend to forget with time. His mind will continue to falter here and there."
pls make a video on the changes u make to the bike when u do🙋♂️ appreciate u cam❤
Explained this to all my friends, speeds cool but for how long.
Also bought my 23’ mt07 up at warhorse great buying experience
I'm picking up my (black with red accent) 2015 Yamaha R1 tomorrow. It's got a full titanium Austin Racing exhaust, power commander and dyno tuned. Gonna be a BEAST
How much? I’m seeing 15/16/17’s going for 10k-16k, so I’m not sure how much I’m supposed to save….
@@NudaMan I got mine for 15k with 28k miles. I live in South Dakota, so I can only ride part of the year. The high miles don’t bother me for that reason. It’s been taken care of though, that’s forsure

Welcome to the R7 club.
Great content man , your video makes ma day,❤️❤️❤️
Omg ur opening statements is how I feel. I survived a lot and need to stop while I can and the riding scene is dead but here I am searching😢
Liking the inner perspective, I went from a GSX-R 750 to the MT07 and have zero regrets.
