@@lukegodbold6696 Pretty much my response as well. Really disappointed. If Y knows what's good he should make an apology video, make Spite a full partner, and get s**t back on track.
Very disappointed in yammie noob, but he does have that sociopathic flare to him. Maybe it’s better for Spite to leave. I wholeheartedly will continue to support Spite and of course, Chase!
I ride a 21 R1 on the street and it’s not that bad. This bike needs a flash. It gets less hot and has much smoother shifts. Take offs are easier too. I love it and it’s totally dailyable
For people that enjoy supersports, it’s not typically uncomfortable. I’ve rode for hours straight and have no problem with the sitting position. Chase is clearly not a supersport kind of guy.
I live up in the mountains of WV. I live around 45 minutes away from the back of the dragon. I started on an R3 around 5 years ago, went to a 2020 R6, then a 2021 MT10, and now I have a 2023 R1. I love the bike but I live in technical heaven lol. We have a lot of roads you can open them up on and alot of roads that are twisty. I love this bike more than my R6. The R6 has a more aggressive sitting position stock, it isn't by a lot but there is a big enough difference. I've rode other liter bikes but this is my very first brand new liter bike. I use it to go everywhere and I have yet to get tired of riding it. I haven't rode further than a couple hundred miles though. I don't go on road trips on motorcycles at the moment anyway. I'll just trailer it to bike shows. What blows my mind is all the technology it has but doesn't have a fuel gauge lol.

R1’s are notorious for not always wanting to start on the first try. Especially if the ECU is flashed. You kinda need to just hold the starter longer than normal to get it going.
I wonder if this is a Yamaha quirk in general? I have an MT07 and ever since I had the ECU flashed it always takes an extra push of the starter for it to fire up. If you hold the switch the first time the starter will just go on and on and on without the engine turning over. But on the 2nd push it turns on perfectly.
@@ItzLobbyBobby possibly. Thinking about it, the problem could be more of a fuel pump issue as the starter is clearly working but the engine just hesitates to turn over. Don’t know why Yamaha has never addressed this in their machines (especially considering how much money they make across all their businesses)
@@ItzLobbyBobby nah, I have a tracer 900 and mt10, and they both start perfectly on first try. I think it just that some features in the ECU flash were removed, that might be missing for a smooth start-up.
@@ItzLobbyBobby my R1 doesn’t like starting after it’s warmed up. I believe it has to do with the cross plane crank. The way it fires one cylinder at a time I think makes it tougher. With normal I4’s you have 2 cylinders firing together
Realistically...I never seen any of the guys I ride with, that have an R1, ride them like that 😆🤷🏾♂️. My good buddy Chase, your made for an upright 😏👍🏾
Facts, he should stick to upright reviews. Anyone that wants a supersport will get a bad feeling because a guy with 1M followers for being a Moto channel, doesn’t like them.
I daily rode an 02' R1 for ten years , got the 12' and daily rode that until this year. Now at 41 I daily ride a 24 navi and weekend 23 mt07. R1 will always be a great machine to me.
DUDE! 1.11M subs! So proud of you. I sold my Ducati Years ago but have been a subscriber for a long time but never see your vids pop up. Gotta hit that bell I guess. LOL. Cheers man. I love all the OG Motovloggers. I wish that I was still part of the family but I had to move on. Smoking that bell now so I can keep up with your shenanigans.
Agree 💯 %, really like your color scheme on your 19. I have a 2024, and it's really comfortable once you get used to it, I'm 5'11 btw..it is a taller bike.
Yeah I heard about the rumors of how uncomfortable this bike can be, and that's why I decided to just go with the mt-09 for better practicality. But the R1 would be awesome on the track and be much better on the highways as well.
I have a 2016 Yamaha r1 and it's very comfortable for me and I'm 6'3 200 lbs. I also had a 2015 Yamaha fz 09 for like 2 weeks and personally really didn't like it. I hated how soft the suspension was on the fz and hated the ergonomics. It's just personal preference
I’ve been riding 600’s since I passed my test 6 years ago. I’ve always wanted an R1 and it’s becoming more and more apparent that it’s just not a good bike for daily use. I use my GSXR for everything all time of the year. But I’m still going to get an R1, it’s something I just need to do and then it’s done. Probably keep it for a year and change it for an S1000RR which sounds like a better everyday sportsbike
@@kyzomo exactly. Tall bike and a wide seat as well. I use to own this bike when it came out in 2020 also in Raven until I traded it in for the K67. Very familiar with this bike
I never rode a cross-plane R1, it's on my bucket list. I have owned a 99' and a 07' R1. The 07 was a hot running bike. I bought both bikes new and they were stock. On a summer day, if I took I-95 into Philly for example, once I got into city streets the bike would run the coolant temp gauge high enough to trip the flashing red light and I would have to park the bike so it could cool down. The undertail exhaust also created a lot of heat around the seat. It was nice in the winter 😆
My 2011 r1 gets extremely hot. It doesn't really start cooling down until I'm going at least 40mph. I also never touch A mode, it's pretty wild. Also I average 23 mpg on mine. So it's nice to see that absolutely nothing has changed besides a little more power
If you want performance then this bike is amazing day to day, Ive put 10k on one. If you want to cruise with a feather in your cap and latte in hand, then be like chase and cry about how its not the same as your scooter.
It's a bummer how compromised the R1 is, in sake of performance. I really want a new 1000, but considering the GSXR1000 continues winning the MotoAmerica Stock 1000, costs the least, offers the most comfort and streetability and performs on par with machines costing double, it's kind of the no brainer. The R1 could only ever be a secondary toy for me, being 6'3. That crossplane is glorious though.
Those new Gsxr 1000's are pretty nuts especially once modified a tiny bit, even just properly tuned. And for the price too, far cheaper than every other 1000cc
well,the newer GIXXER 1000 is 'flickie' for sure,never starting issues or ever felt sluggish in any mode,but the lowest mode is NOT meant for hyper-acceleration which is the whole point(if you get caught in the rain)it's meant to reduce everything power-wise and same for the traction control levels,however the order,the highest or lowest is meant to slow it all down on purpose by design,and when traction control is OFF and in A mode on a gixxer 1000,the shit will hit the fan for sure with no bs,i like 'looking' at the R1's,but ill stick with the Gixxers*
OC: I've been riding for roughly the same amount of time as you, Chase and I've moved away from my sport bike as my daily over the years. Those are bikes that caught my eye early on in my career and at the point I couldn't afford more than one bike, so I was willing to make compromises in comfort for enjoyment. They're like the supercars that people have in storage and drive around town on occasion to a local meet. Capable of so much more than street duty but seldom get to showcase it.
You can get a decent used gsxr 1000 2016 for pretty cheap for big boy duties and a ninja 400 as a daily. And maybe do a small fun supermoto build all under 15k, max 20k. 20k is too much to drop on one bike for a beginner (1-5yrs) in my opinion. Getting those super expensive brand new super sports or advs early on means you've tied yourself down to a garage queen. Getting experience on three different styles means you'll ride safely and learn to discern your own individual taste. I know a decent number of people who got a new tiger 1200/s1000rr with all the options early and quit riding within the first 4 months.
strictly for a city riding scenario, it really doesn't make sense to use a sportsbike. some may even argue that any 'big bike' , naked or sports, doesn't. a scooter is more than enough to get you around and complete your errands. it's easy to move around, light and small to weave in traffic, has space for your things, ridiculously low fuel consumption, and other benefits that really suits riding in the city.
My inner squid is sobbing in a corner after this review lol... but seriously I'm so glad I found this channel. Hopefully I can get a bike soon, I pass that bike shop from time to time so I might get to see you out there one day
I love how he said this bike isn’t nimble. Have you ever been on a Harley? Or a straight naked bike if you try to cut on those it’ll get there in 1.3 light years the R1 is much more “fliky” than any other bike.
I got the r15 v4 as my first bike and just revving that a bit and the speed that it goes makes me feel like flash, I can’t fathom how it feels on these 1000s😂
I had a 2012 CBR1000RR for a couple years, in town riding was alright, got boring not shifting gears. Could easily stay in 1st the whole time. Takes away from riding I think, i just sold it and got an 821 Monster and I actually enjoy riding around again. Everything you said made me remember when i had that liter bike and can say I don't miss it.
So you got exploited when you were learning. A 1000 cc bike requires you to set up for a turn, 2 turns prior to the turn. That's not fun riding. That IS calculation. I've seen hundreds of guys buy these things and die.
@@Gma7788 i started on a 600cc for a couple years and was going to do a little upgrade but got convinced to get a liter so i did, really enjoyed it, used it thats for sure bc the town i use to live in had plenty of twistys but moved back to my small hometown which is just straight flat roads and road tripping for an hour to get to the twistys wasn't worth keeping it.
So, I'd like to hear what the reliability is of the yamaha engines. I'd like to hear stories about blown but not abused yamaha engines and at what miles? Few and Far Between this century from what I hear. Suzy is fairly close I think.
*superbike, supersports are 600cc, superbikes are 1000cc, Yamaha also doesnt race the M, too much street stuff gets added to those bikes so its more hassle for them to build, the base model really is their top bike. Also, this is a twisties/trackday bike, highways are for the boring and the unskilled, this bikes chassis shines the most on track.
One of my coworkers commutes to work everyday on an r1. Everytime I walk by his bike I think “if only I was 20 years old again and making the money I make now. The bike looks good and I’m sure is fun in the right situation. But at 41, hell no. I don’t need a touring bike but I at least need bikes that I can ride for the 3 hour round trip to the beach and back without needing a chiropractor.
Lol I feel ya! I’m 55 12th of September! I jus bought an old R1 ! (Christmas in July!) Plan to eventually put those elevated handlebars on it! But I love the bike for what I gave for it & the power! (150 hp!?) 2001 carbureted! Mods always good when u have options that’ll help you.
I also used to think that the R 1 was the greatest ever but now I agree with your assertion and actually I expected them I would have been shocked if you had said it's a good street bike and that strange shifter? what's that all about? Never the less it is still among the coolest looking bikes ever.
Just read up online there is a design flaw in the crank where the bearing gets spun easily. Sad considering Yamaha is considered the most reliable bike brand according to surveys
OC: Totally understandable statement at the end Chase. It can be a chore to ride a fast bike slow in city traffic. The old saying more fun riding a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow will never be wrong. Even though I miss my Daytona 675R my back absolutely doesn't. My back loves my MT09 SP.
I have that bike n bought it new and u have to get that bike flashed n tuned to get a good feel and a good ride out of that bike. Moore mafia ( Chris Moore ) flashed n tuned my bike plus I did some sprocket work and that bike FN flys. When flashed it takes that start off problem away. And the electronics on that bike is sick. But no one needs a bike that has that much power on the streets it’s super fast.
No point buying Superbikes any more when nakeds are making the same power but with more tq on the bottom and midrange. The only difference is Superbikes have the 190mph top speed.
I feel like anyone who says they are uncomfortable on a sportbike just isn't meant for them. I've had dirtbikes many sportbikes. 23' R1 and 15' Daytona 675 currently. Have had every brand but aprilia kawasaki and mv agusta. Ive had a few nakeds too. Fz07 and superduke. Fz07 wasnt bad just wasnt very comfortable for me. Suspension was too soft imo. Absolutely hated the superduke. My point is, just depends on you. 95% of people say supersports are hella uncomfortable but they are the most comfortable for me. R1 is one of the most aggressive for sure. Think triumph is a little more agressive. Was between 22' RSV4 factory or the 23' R1. I picked the R1 due to reliability and the only aprilia dealer around me, id rather not deal with. 😂
I am 6 foot but i only have a inseam of 78.5cm wich isn't even 31inch... When i first bought my R1 (RN49) in june/juli 2018 i always had to tiptoe it. Had to lower it slightly. 😅
Gets hot because they're designed to be ridden fast, you are obviously riding in the city so... You had to take it to a highway or tail of a dragon of something like that
Maybe ride in A mode like we all do. And why are you riding the outside of lane 2? How is the vehicle you’re approaching supposed to see you hiding riding the outside lane?? Seeing that kills me this is why we have so many motorcycle deaths. Note to everyone make yourself known and visible to vehicles stay alive.
Dude...the amount of people that complain about the heat on a race bike - STOP! "Race bike" doesn't equal comfort at 40 MPH - Panigale V4 in the traffic, hot AF, as this is - but I knew that and go highway in decent temps as much as possible. DO NOT get this bike if you only ride in downtown
The thing about this first ride is chase is a lot older than he used to be. He’s been riding majority of his life so he’s already sore and has a bad back. And 35 year olds are not who this bike is marking for.
OC At one point I wanted a super sport because it’s cool. Now I want a sport touring bike like the ninja 1000. Something that looks the part, but is comfortable and usable on the road. That said, I have yet to buy a bike because I’m terrible at managing finances.

*superbike, supersports are 600cc, superbikes are 1000cc, Yamaha also doesnt race the M, too much street stuff gets added to those bikes so its more hassle for them to build, the base model really is their top bike. Also, this is a twisties/trackday bike, highways are for the boring and the unskilled, this bikes chassis shines the most on track.
What,how is the 1200 rr more leaned over? It’s more upright than any super sport, watch any review and it will confirm that. This guy man.
watch MCN's review ! They say, it's worst Ergos & Clip-on Bar position of any bike they have tested
I had one of these. I want another one. Back on a 600 rn
Why did it need a new engine after only 10k miles?
Dude that intro rev. was funny as hell.
You're right, I liked the ad.
Supposedly it’s an emission thing with the throttle. Values are switched in the factory tune for hand throttle position vs throttle plate.
would love to have u and the zoo crew here in my box fer MotoGP Austin some year - Great review as always
One of my coworkers commutes to work everyday on an r1. Everytime I walk by his bike I think “if only I was 20 years old again and making the money I make now. The bike looks good and I’m sure is fun in the right situation. But at 41, hell no. I don’t need a touring bike but I at least need bikes that I can ride for the 3 hour round trip to the beach and back without needing a chiropractor.
Lol I feel ya! I’m 55 12th of September! I jus bought an old R1 ! (Christmas in July!) Plan to eventually put those elevated handlebars on it! But I love the bike for what I gave for it & the power! (150 hp!?) 2001 carbureted!
Mods always good when u have options that’ll help you.
I also used to think that the R 1 was the greatest ever but now I agree with your assertion and actually I expected them I would have been shocked if you had said it's a good street bike and that strange shifter? what's that all about? Never the less it is still among the coolest looking bikes ever.
OC: Pour one out for Chase's spine
Some say he's still recovering from this ride...
@@chaseontwowheels I'm sure your chiropractor loves you 😂
Can't understand what's the point of the R1M when the weight of both bikes is the same.
Ohlins suspension and carbon pieces
The R1 is a superbike. Supersports generally refer to 600s.
Not in the U S and A dude
@@LeeTillbury Worldwide. It’s ok if you don’t understand.
10k miles + brand new engine? What the hell is going on here?
More than likely oil starvation
GP Money shift
Just read up online there is a design flaw in the crank where the bearing gets spun easily. Sad considering Yamaha is considered the most reliable bike brand according to surveys
OC: Totally understandable statement at the end Chase. It can be a chore to ride a fast bike slow in city traffic. The old saying more fun riding a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow will never be wrong. Even though I miss my Daytona 675R my back absolutely doesn't. My back loves my MT09 SP.
I have that bike n bought it new and u have to get that bike flashed n tuned to get a good feel and a good ride out of that bike. Moore mafia ( Chris Moore ) flashed n tuned my bike plus I did some sprocket work and that bike FN flys. When flashed it takes that start off problem away. And the electronics on that bike is sick. But no one needs a bike that has that much power on the streets it’s super fast.
Thats "leaned over"??? :o ive been doing it all wrong
OC: Love those pulls on Money Shift Parkway. Still wondering why it needed an engine refresh after 10K??? Yep. lol
No point buying Superbikes any more when nakeds are making the same power but with more tq on the bottom and midrange. The only difference is Superbikes have the 190mph top speed.
Yup. For me and the street riding I do I sold my 2013 R6 for a 2018 MT09 and I have no regrets. The torque is insane
Sport bikes has better wind protection
turns at high speeds
Can you review the Triumph tiger 1200❓️.
I feel like anyone who says they are uncomfortable on a sportbike just isn't meant for them. I've had dirtbikes many sportbikes. 23' R1 and 15' Daytona 675 currently. Have had every brand but aprilia kawasaki and mv agusta. Ive had a few nakeds too. Fz07 and superduke. Fz07 wasnt bad just wasnt very comfortable for me. Suspension was too soft imo. Absolutely hated the superduke. My point is, just depends on you. 95% of people say supersports are hella uncomfortable but they are the most comfortable for me. R1 is one of the most aggressive for sure. Think triumph is a little more agressive. Was between 22' RSV4 factory or the 23' R1. I picked the R1 due to reliability and the only aprilia dealer around me, id rather not deal with. 😂
OC: You sound like me after riding 3.5 hours up to Tail of the Dragon, making 4 runs, then riding home, and that was on a Ryker. Lol
I love the looks of it.
OEM battery is trash. Needs Lithium to start right. My 2017 was the same way. Switched to Lithium and it starts almost immediately
wooo chase is back respect
What editing software do you use?! This is so good
So it sucks for everything, except what it was designed for. However, that’s the only thing you don’t review. WTF?
Yeah yamaha and gsxr 1k lost me w no cruise control.
Lol...you seemed to be straight up during the leaned over comment. It's a Supersport, as any other Supersport it is a specific built bike.
Video starts at 6:24
Need you in every vid
Thank you!
i'm trying to imagine a linebacker size frame on one of those crotch rockets.
daily my r1 and my zx10 in hawaii for the past 4 years easy
Big Question with R1 is Tuned or Un Tuned. There is like 20+ HP to be gained. Only 70% throttle at max RPM.
that is a monster. should not be street legal in a sense hahaha damn i want one
why'd they have to change its eye??????? i loved those straight drl
I ride a Speed Triple RR and I don't feel as lean over as I am on a R1. Weird 😕
May be you are a tall guy, with a long spine.
@@VinayKumar-db4qz I'm actually 5'7 with a short torso.
I haven't watched you long enough to know.. what is your favorite type/or bike to ride?
In the sound check section it was definitely only running on 3 cylinders lol
I am 6 foot but i only have a inseam of 78.5cm wich isn't even 31inch...
When i first bought my R1 (RN49) in june/juli 2018 i always had to tiptoe it.
Had to lower it slightly. 😅
Who put a bag of marbles in the crank case?! 🤣🤣🤣
Gets hot because they're designed to be ridden fast, you are obviously riding in the city so... You had to take it to a highway or tail of a dragon of something like that
Maybe ride in A mode like we all do. And why are you riding the outside of lane 2? How is the vehicle you’re approaching supposed to see you hiding riding the outside lane?? Seeing that kills me this is why we have so many motorcycle deaths. Note to everyone make yourself known and visible to vehicles stay alive.
Are you going to test the new ducati panigale v4s?
Yeah and not for 200 bucks. When Amazon has cheaper products. Cool idea and design but that price tag is crazy.
Intro (can I be part of the Intro Crew now?): Does my history with my R6 come back? You mean, will it get stolen? Probably not during the first ride.
Looks a lot like mine!
What an intro! What 🎶 music is that?
Anyone else notice he said 20% off in the speed sanctum stand add but the on screen writing said $20 off?
Yea that was a whoops on our end. The code gets ya $20 off.
Dude...the amount of people that complain about the heat on a race bike - STOP! "Race bike" doesn't equal comfort at 40 MPH - Panigale V4 in the traffic, hot AF, as this is - but I knew that and go highway in decent temps as much as possible. DO NOT get this bike if you only ride in downtown
whens the chase who rode an r6 for years hahaha
"This should get really interesting" which means you only go 75
R1 a super sport?
Yes
If u wanna have fun on r1 do this
- straight pipe + ecu
- no plate
-dont stop for police
Chase...seriously....how are you actually pacing an Acura SUV on the off-ramp??? lol - I get it - stay in the speed limit but common speed bro!!! 😆
The thing about this first ride is chase is a lot older than he used to be. He’s been riding majority of his life so he’s already sore and has a bad back. And 35 year olds are not who this bike is marking for.
Would u be so kind to ride the honda cb1100 ex,not alot of reviews on that bike
Speed sanctum for $180 each?…not unless they’re 75% off!
Do u know what the problem bike ztayes in garage 6 months aand dosent start but if i start in 2 gear anddrive down the hill then it starts? Bad fuel?
OC At one point I wanted a super sport because it’s cool. Now I want a sport touring bike like the ninja 1000. Something that looks the part, but is comfortable and usable on the road. That said, I have yet to buy a bike because I’m terrible at managing finances.
