I have the r1 rn65 and it does marginal improvement with the break pads. problem is the super long breakline from the pump to abs module and back to the calipers. upgrading the break pump to magura helps on the break feeling but the break power is only achieved if you disconnect from the abs module and direct connect to calipers. first mod on racetrack on r1 anyway and no expensive new calipers needed. in theory you are right but not in this case
@@Nostalchik I can only comment on what I've experienced and for me the difference from a average price set of brake pads to the more expensive on a bike fitted with Hel brake lines and no abs the improvement was significant.
Not a new thing. I'd heard of bikes and cars using magnesium in wheels 20 years ago. Probably some kind of magnesium alloy so not sure about flammability. Maybe somebody could test on their bike and let us know 😂
Yep CC is the only thing i miss from my mt10 :/ but the Rest is awesome and the brakes are much better! Dont know what people are Talking about… s1000+zx10 is no difference
In cars bigger brakes means better cooling. Bigger tires makes faster braking. Is that not the case for motorcycles or does the braking on them work differently?
I don't think I'm qualified to answer this but I'll try. Bikes can't have either bigger tires or bigger brakes because the whole bike is designed proportional to the wheels. No extra space for larger rotors, so the choice and quality of. The individual components becomes paramount. You can upgrade the brake lines from rubber to braided steel, swap the pads for sintered style for harder braking bite, and also the calipers for more force multipliers and control modulation.
it works the same. coming from a guy who lives in 3rd world country and has been riding a motorcycle from 6th grade, it's just that we upgrade the brake lines or brake pads first before upgrading the rest of the components. in stage 1, we upgrade brake pads and brake lines. Stage 2, we upgrade the brake rotor from fixed to semi or full float design (regular floating brake rotor is O-drive, T-drive rotor is newer and better) with petal or commonly known as wavy brake rotors that has more surface areas for cooling. in stage 3, we upgrade the caliper for more rigid material and the brake master cylinder for a better feel. the result of switching from rubber to braided brake lines is day and night. some bikes like my Suzuki GSX-R150 has small 290mm petal brake disc, it can be upgraded to 320mm full-float brake rotor but then my caliper and brake pads has too little of a contact area so I need to upgrade it to big pot 4 pistons caliper like Brembo P4-40 series, but then again my stock brake master cylinder is no good because it has 12.7mm piston diameter so I had to upgrade it to 19mm like Brembo RCS15 or RCS19, but then again I live in 3rd world country so I'll die whithin 2 days trying to save up for all those expensive shi 🗣🔥💯💯💯 aftermarket braking systems costs more than my bike 💀☠️
I don’t wanna sound like a hater but I never liked the new R1 design, in my opinion the R1 looked nice till 2009. Beautiful bikes but they are starting to quack like the ducaties
People whining about their seats , what a bunch of candy assess. I run a race tail section with a thin layer of foam .And it doesn't bother me at all. I have riden a bunch of motorcycles and not once did I think about how hard the seat was !
Are you seriously complaining about having a R1?.One of the finest motorcycles on the planet!..really!..spoiler buddy most can't afford one and here you are moaning, seriously dude get a grip.
Brake pads can make a big difference in improving your stoping performance without spending big dollars on new calipers

Actually it’s better if you change the disc. Get a set of Galfer disc they will make a HUGE difference instead of the caliper.

MAGNESIUM WHEELS!? You mean to tell me that in an apocalyptic scenario my R1 could double as a fire starter!?😮
fuck yeah, or you could be a ghost rider with sportsbike

Features the R1 should of had from the factory- A fuel gage, cruise control, Traction control and ABS.
I thought a R1 already have ABS?
They have both traction control and abs. Traction control came in 2012 i think.@@WatashiWaNoodle
They have that they just missing fuel gage and cruise control
@@Swisha90s Still the R1 should have all the features the MT-10 has.

@@MRworldEtIkA Bro, soon as you said you were from a 3rd world, you had my full trust. Yall just keep that shit runnin. It's impressive
Stock brakes will break-in, after 80-100 miles. Night and day difference.
2013-14 R1 was best looking....Yamaha should bring back that design man😢
Oh my GPX it’s Jason Bourn

costly upgrade mate the first i'd do somethin about the pipe 4sho💥
Everyone talking about the R1 but nobody buying it
Up grade tail tidy exhaust and new coat
Brembo racing brake pads and you're good to go!
❤❤❤
i like chicken nuggets
You missed to mention the sound.❤
If he doesn't mentioned it then he might be just okay with it 😂
Debating selling my ‘24 R1 for a gixer because of the sound. Only drawback is the ugly gauges.
Ill stick to my R1 yZF year 2000 thank you
just say you’re broke😂

yeah because you only ride on smooth roads and not everyone has them around them.
Are you seriously complaining about having a R1?.One of the finest motorcycles on the planet!..really!..spoiler buddy most can't afford one and here you are moaning, seriously dude get a grip.
Yamaha ahhh one
P r I c k
Again with the ugly exhaust
The first feature I don't like: it looks Japanese.
Because it is. Like most Super bikes.
