  • Ever wondered what it takes to make a fast bike faster? We did too, so we teamed up with Yamaha, Michelin and a certain Tarran Mackenzie to make an R1 ballistic on a budget. Checkout part 1 here!

    Crazy how capable bikes are these days, most think more power, real truth is suspension brakes tires and getting the bike set up for you makes a world of difference in rideability, great video

    Hey Sir that was very interesting stuff👍🏻 I've pretty much done all that, gearing, suspension, handlebars, footrests etc. Taken up all the idle free play on the throttle, but will be fitting a quick action soon. The tyres are the final stage for me, and yes those Michelin Power Cup 2s were on my list weeks ago. My RSV4 Factory will be flying round BH again very soon👍🏻

    Actually good timing because I am going to track out my ‘12 R6. More focused on getting my body position as perfect as can before speed n modifications on bike though; but right now, healing up for crash I had about month ago.

    great vid - looking forward to the series - especially having had a 2016 R1M a couple years back and going through a similar process ! just one thing. - Lap times for comparison of the effects of changes would have been really useful, to be honest they are essential !!

    Interesting how most people go straight for the exhaust change.

    If your after lap times after comfort to move body position , a Bren tune and pipe can offer 20% more grunt which will change lap times. Id do this before suspension changes which are costly and not easy to set up.

    Still Yamaha isn't bringing the factory tune for R1, like Ducati bringing the factory tune for Panigale V4.

      I put a link below for you. The article is talking about car disc brakes, but it is the same design as motorcycle disc brakes. It sounds to me like the springs are important, and I would not remove them from a bike used on the street. The article shows a disc rotor that is only a few months old, and it's completely destroyed because it was used with the pad springs removed.

    For the average rider:
    1) lose weight
    2) take a course to improve your riding skills
    😄😁😆
    Seriously, what about lighter wheels?
    And changing the whole exhaust by something lighter?

    Pump your tires up hard, dress like rolly free and ride the same. Waste thousands of pounds on bolt ons. Just loose weight for better power to weight. Except your never going to ride your plastic fantastic nowhere near its full performance on the road. Only the road racers get close.
