In this video, I knocked out the final mod for my Yamaha R6. Sad times :( I've been meaning to do this for a while and finally got around to it, just a few days before delivering the bike to the new owner. Had to have it finished though! THE WHEELS. I needed to switch up the wheels. After changing the fairings, the blue factory wheels just didn't match at all. So here's what I came up with. Hope you like it!

I love it man! White always looks soooo clean when its done right. Good stuff man!
I dont know the blue one looked sick aswell but damm the white looks good
I thought you were gonna paint the wheels gold. Would’ve been sick
I originally planned to powdercoat them. Gold back when I did the white wrap, but after deciding to do the aftermarket fairings with the different design, I started wanting to do white more.
same i thought he is gonna do them gold.
Yeah.. I thought gold
But its ok, it blended well on the design
Omg finally. The blue was killin me. The white looks awesome.
Thanks man!
Motonosity you’re welcome broskii
I woulda went with black. But hey its your bike. Happy for you
That white looks amazing.. But I also love white sportbikes in general
Dude that came out nice! You can’t even tell the touch up job unless you are REALLY looking for it. Looks so clean!
I now have a major concern with that product.
If painters tape peeled the product off, how well will balance weights stay in place?
I.e. the surface the weights stick to will pull off relatively easily.
OEM parts are raw when they paint them so the paint has a rough surface to grab on. It only looks smooth because it's smoothed and clear coated
Not sure, my wheels are balanced internally with that stuff you can have sprayed when you put tires on.
I use balancing beads. They work great.
Omg, can't believe he's selling the R6 😢. I love that bike
Looks MUCH better with the white... really pops out!
If anyone of you guys is going to do this, be sure to remove all the tape right after you are done spraying so that the product doesn't get riped just like it did with him.
That's actually opposite of what the product specifically says to do. Also, the tape that I had on there had nothing to do with masking things off. It was put on there after over 12 hours strictly to protect the wheel as I put it back on.
Im a General Contractor and as soon as I saw you use blue tape on the white wheels, I knew it was going to strip the coating off. I wanted to tell you but I realized all of this happened in the past haha
Those white wheels look amazing btw!
Edit: In the future, you can use “Delicate Surface” painters tape for (as the name suggests) delicate surfaces. Just don’t leave the tape on there for an extended period of time.
Sick!
Hey you can pull your wheel without touching the adjusters.
but he has to loosen them to get the chain off
@@Charlieswag9000 you can slide out the axle a bit, pull it to the front as far as it can go, take the chain off and slide the axle out fully.. When you put the wheel back in, you don't have to redo the chain adjustment
M H exactly. All you do is slide the axle out. The wheel then drops out.
Great choice with the white. I assumed you would do gold but the white looks amazing!
The first thought to my mind of why the paint came off is. To sand the surface befor applying paint, I use fine scotch bright. That way the paint will stick to the surface.
Also, to keep in mind, that. Spay paint is always not as good as real car paint. It's much thinner, and harder to get good on bigger surfaces, need a lot of cans.
Good job otherwise
Not recomending any cemicals or paint on tires. Be safe
Awesome video!
superwrap is amazing. i used the pint size with a spray gun to paint my fairings on my old R6. held up amazing.
I did that with mine and the tape ripped it off and it chips like fcuk riding and soaks up the chain grease but it's cheaper than PC and it preserves the original wheel paint. I like it. Good job.
I actually prefered the blue but thats just me
You know, I was super surprised how many of y'all liked the blue with the new fairings! I just love how the white makes everything pop
Motonosity yeah it does fit the fearings really good
Luuk Van der Poel naw
There is a trick you can do the block the wheels from being painted and it’s playing cards. Just stick them in the gap between the rim and the tire!!
Aww man I feel so shitty that happened. When I saw that you put the tape back on to protect them I was like oh no this could be bad.😢😭. Still looks amazing for real.😁👍✌
“About the person buying the bike, One: He’s a stupid nice guy” lol thought that was hilarious
At first i dont know if i feel sad or laughing regarding the damage paint after removing the tape.. But that quoted line makes me laughed so hard.. Hahahahahahaha
Could not imagine this build would turn out so sweet!
I don't like white wheels on sport bikes, but that looks really good dude! Blends nicely with the rest of the bike. Matte black also would have looked good.
index cards work well for over spray on wheels
I would put the rear spools in the other hole on the swingarm. Some yamahas support race stands and you can get a bracket. Thats what the two holes are for.
You can't put them in the other holes, they dont fit.
The finish with plastidip depends on your application technique. I find that plastidip is more durable than people think.
White braided brakes lines and wavey discs would have killed it
Duuuuuude
Dang those white wheels are fresh! Sucks it ripped off, my heart literally dropped and I got so sad :(
The white looks so good!
You used WD40 to clean the tire?!?!?! Hahahahaha. OMG.
Can't believe that either. Must not like having any traction.
Shiney tyres bro 😂🤦🏼♂️
It makes them shiny tho🤷😂
My jaw hit the floor
White doesnt look bad, I'd have gone with gold personally. Too bad the product doesnt seem all that strong if it peeled off that easy with painter's tape. How long had it cured before the tape peeled the product off? I've used regular plasti dip and had painter's tape on it and never tore it. Cool little project though.
That was after over 12 hours
@@motonosity Definetly a bummer, I know that feeling all too well after spending time like that to have something get messed up at the end. At least it patched up alright, good looker from a few feet away anyway.
So glad you made this vid i wanted to change the wheel color on my R3 without having to pay for powder coat or do a crappy plastic dip job.. great job wheels look great..
You did a great job
Love the white
omg that looks sick! seriously wow so original and fly as hell
Hey moto tip for if you round the head of your bolts get a spline impact socket and just twat the head of the bolt with your spline socket and a hammer and turn your torx bolt into a spline bolt
Damn that white looks so crisp and just beautiful
Looks great with the white rims.... powder coat or liquid dip...
Everyone: "Yamaha's high vis yellow wheels are hardest ever to keep clean". Motonosity: "hold my beer"
There's a proper procedure for reinstalling a front wheel. Dave moss explains its very well in one of his videos. Should take a look! 👌
I call that spray-on stuff 'Car meet paint' looks good for a week or so, then goes to crap. It literally peeled off when you touched it lol. Good luck to the new owner keeping those nice
I used regular plastidip in my truck back when I had it and kept it on here the entire time I owned it, no issues. Looked the exact same the whole time.
Stunning .
Holy sh#$ that makes that they de pop bro! Looks professional and super clean. Well done 👍
So if the paint peels that easily with masking tape, wont dirt and debris scratch the hell out of it immediately?
It looks mote sophisticated with the white, but I like the blue a lot.
@motonosity did you stop practicing your wheelies ?
Looks super cool!!!
Nice ride!
You have white overspray on your tesla man! 😱🤪
Love the bike
FYI when you remove the back wheel you do NOT need to loosen the chain adjusters, just push the axle out, allow the wheel to drop and you’ll have enough room to remove the chain.
Awesome color scheme ❤️ it
R6 is so badass
Low key the white looks 🔥 🤟🏻
It looks sick anyway!!
I am a sucker for white wheels good job dude
didnt think the white would do it for me... but damn she looking gooood
That dip stuff is for the birds. "Paint or paint not" - Confucius
Looks really nice 👌
It looks super clean! I would love to make some color changes eventually on my fat bob! Maybe I’ll run into you around Austin sometime 👌🏼
Great job! I had no idea that product existed
The white definitely looks better than the blue however matte black finish would look much better with a white rim edge tape
I think I liked the bike with the white wrap and blue wheels the best
Your intros are too sick man!
Yeah that looks so sick dude
Looks better with the white finish.
What’s going to happen when you balance the wheels and have some tape weights on them, just curious.
Looks sick!
bikelife in america looks so much better than here in europe when it comes to mods / exhaust, or are no DB killer or full systems not legal as well?
WOW thats awesome looking, very very nice, I will be doing that myself, I live in Kentucky so where can I buy that kit?
Look good. Its like Tamiya wheel color
White looks good. Sucks it peeled so easy.
U did a great job!
My favorite color is clear!
Bike looks so damn radddddd 🔥 that I just wanna keep staring at it forever lol
@ 13:26 Rip off the white paint off from near the tyres. It might look like pinstripe of blue.
Super Dope Bro!
How does your wife not get mad with you taking up all that space in the garage lol
riding with Lucas because all that space he’s taking up is for his job
Maybe she ain't even allowed to be in the garage, who knows? ;)
Bro that part where you zoomed in on the painted wheel made me think I had ghosting on my monitor, its your camera lol, freaked out a little bit.
What are the Torque Specs on all the bolts bro?
What a beautiful bike that's finished out to be !! I'd be so reluctant to even sell it....
I'm glad I finished the sale before doing it or I'm not sure I would've been able to lol
@@motonosity looks awesome, The buyer is very lucky!!!
Isn’t the rear sprocket on a Cush drive? Could’ve just lifted it off right
Liquid wraps on motorcycle wheels isn't a great idea, they really don't last before they start coming off.
Can you not clear coat them?
Looks sooo sick but my man. Prep. Always prep you should of sanded the rims first for the paint to stick properly n a base coat would of made it strong as hell n a clear coat or 2 wouldnt go a miss 😉👍👌 looks sooo fresh tho bro. Ide lv to do my yzfr125 in this colour scheme 💯🔥
Bruh no it's not paint lol. It's a type of dip. You're not supposed to sand the surface. That actually makes it worse. The point is to maintain and protect the surface underneath.
@@motonosity ahh right haha thats me not listening properly then 😂😂 looks soo sweet tho that man. Its a shame your not gunna have it for much longer. It has to be one of the nicest r6 ive seen around by miles. Hope all goes well n that bad boy gets a good home 👌💯
@@Deon.lowther I appreciate that man, thanks 😊
That's super nice bro
He's a stupid nice guy 😂😂great recovery
Aww man I feel like you cheaped out... powdercoat is always the way to go if the next owner wants to change the color it can just be re powder coated again
At a cost. Now if he wants he can go back to blue for free. If I changed it, he'd never be able to have factory wheels again.
My dream bike Yamaha r6 so beautiful bike
Did they sponsor you for the spray kit?
Nope, straight up just bought it after seeing an ad for it and looking at UA-cam reviews.
What about cleaning chain lube off?
That's why the painters tape needs to be removed while the paint is fresh.
Wheels are exposed to so much. That rear wheel has oil from the chain even though you did scrub the wheels. With powder coating the sand blast the wheels to make sure all the oil is off. Then the powder coat is baked on.
O.Z Racing wheels/Marchesini wheels 💥
What is that song at 10:25?? Can’t get it out my head!!
How do you do those smooth, slow shots of the completed bike?
A steady hand and slow motion :)
@@motonosity Yep... I'll leave it to the pros. If I attempted it it would look like Michael J Fox threading a needle.
Anodised gold would have suited it more
What camera do you use? 🤔
looks like this product would work as a good basic preview before someone decided to go to a more permanent solution like paint or powder coating , but I guess that would also depend on how many color options this product has available, this is one way you could live with the color change for a few months before making a final decision to spend the money on a more permanent solution
That actually sounds like a great idea. They actually do have a quite a few colors.
Totally would have matched the r6 emblem
