(Sorry my english is not perfect). Its a good idea Scott! Would like to see this. Its would be interesting if you can describe your modifications. You know its nice to see people taking care of "older" bike. For me the golden age of the sportbike is 1996 to 2003. It was in those years that we had the most beautiful models. Its sad to see them disappearing slowly. I have a 2003 Zx-7r and a 1998 Cbr900r and i don't want to sell them for newer bike. I would like to have one those nice 2000-01 R1. Here in Canada i can get one for 3000$ 30k-40k kilo. Its nice i think. Its really affordable and low cost in insurance (150$ / year). Anyways the age of the bike his not important. Everything can be repair. You live in Europe right? I saw your license plate on your truck (lol). Hey lot of success in your R1 project Scott!
The best years for sports bikes. The ZX7R is beautiful! Yes, I'm from England. I will describe the modifications on my next video, there are a lot of them! ;) Cheers!
I had it in red. Bought it brand new from a dealer. The most comfortable, powerfull and fun to ride motorcycle. The torque of that engine was always making me smile. Every time you twist the throttle the beast wakes up regardless of rpm. Changed then to 2004 which looked fantastic but lost the engine characteristic. Miss the 2001,
I do too,so bad! And this was the bike i wanted back when. I bought a brand new 03 silver and black but wasn't as crazy about it as i was the 01. Damn😖
I just purchased a 01 blue r1 and it's just like the 2000 that I had for 10 yrs I love the old school look and I can and will do my own maintenance on this one too.
Blessed July 2022!!! I jus bought same year color! Garage kept low miles 6,100 miles LIKE NEW! I’m riding loving every minute of it!!!! My Christmas in July and my early Birthday president!
I'm betting it was just a bit fluffy because it was cold, the temp gauge was still reading "Lo", once up to temp the fueling on these is flawless. (when stock)
I have the exact same year and colour, its only done 14,000 kms (about 8700 miles), its got an Arrow can, Ohlins shock, steering damper (same as this bikes) and Ohlins forks, apart from that its all stock, and mint.😄
@@uhtred7860 Damnn. I found an 01 r1 great looking condition with 5700 miles for $3700. Should I do it? It’s been sitting for 12 years. Not sure what might have to be done to it, the guy says he had it serviced and fluids changed
@@byrek8975 If they are genuine miles (check it hasn't been raced) i'd grab it. The carbs will need removing and insides fully cleaned if its been sitting that long, Did he have it serviced before or after the lay up? if before change ALL fluids, oil, coolant, brake fluid. Make sure the fuel pump and filter are good, (just replace fuel filter, they cheap) tyres might be dodgy after 12 years. But yeah, grab it, they are fast becoming a classic. Just make sure you keep all the stock parts and don't chop anything if you decide to modify it.😏 The reason bikes are expensive here in NZ is that we have a small population, so not many of each model gets sold (compared to say the U.S) and B: The Govt decided to introduce a law to stop the import of bikes made after 89, that didnt have ABS. Guys used to bring bikes in from all over the world, but not any more.
@@uhtred7860 damn bro, funny law. But yeah dawg he sent me a pic of the title which read 1 owner and 5700 mileage, but it was issued in 2011. So he must’ve barely rode it in the past 12 years at all. He says it’s indoors on a battery tender and he’s changed parts to it because somebody must’ve “sat on it and dropped it”. But by the pictures the thing looks new. It has aftermarket chrome gas tank and chrome clutch/oil covers + aftermarket chrome handle grips. But the frame looks spotless with no scratches. Tough to tell if he’s truthful or a good liar. He says it has a brand new clutch and battery and an air horn. Not sure why the clutch would have to be new if it was barely ridden… But anything else I should look out for when I go to check it out? Tires also are worn will def need to be changed. He says $3700 but I wanna get him down to 3k in person. He did a tuneup on it and “did another part that it needed cuz it wouldn’t start which costed another $300 to get it running good”
Buying this on the 29th in the Philippine for 8 months stay does this bike feels fast? I mean I did check the hp 150 or 129 I think with 70 ft tq , I never had 1000cc only drove Ducati 749 for 1 year
Completely normal, this happens because the oil in the engine drags between the gears :P Happens on all bikes on a paddock stand unless they have no oil, or the rear brake is rubbing. Hope this helps :)
The one you're talking about I think goes up to a servo near the carbs! A lot of these bikes get converted to slip on and the servo removed, so if you're looking to hook up the original exhaust, there's a good chance you won't be able to connect those cables back up
Bought one with original pipe. Did some transmission work but when i put bike back togather forgot where that cord goes. Now shes popping when rideing im guessing that cord burns unused gas??.
@@devone744 nope the cables pull the exup valve open and closed. I assume because they're not connected now, the exup valve is stuck open. This will cause your bike to bang and pop, you will need to adjust your fuelling to suit this or adjust your cables correctly!

What an awesome bike. 2000-01 is the best looking R1 ever.
Cheers.
Thank you! Once my engine rebuild is done, I will reupload the video with all the new extras that are on the bike :)

Hey. What exhaust did you have on the bike. And where did you get it
@@calvinjames271Looks like a Delkevic to me, I run one on my FZ-1, sounds just like this too.

Every time you twist the throttle the beast wakes up regardless of rpm. Changed then to 2004 which looked fantastic but lost the engine characteristic. Miss the 2001,
I still have mine, this shape 20 years old and my lad (7 years old) will inherit this classic 👍
Lucky you AND him!!👍👍
The kids face Priceless.!

I miss the old school sportbike look
Same here.
Those were the best designs ever!
I do too,so bad! And this was the bike i wanted back when. I bought a brand new 03 silver and black but wasn't as crazy about it as i was the 01. Damn😖

The r1 is still a gorgeous looking bike.
Ive got an 01 r1 in same colours absolutely gorgeous
I recently got the 2001 champion edition R6. I love the bike. the 2001 R6 and R1 look and sound amazing!
MIG high rise pipe on these looked sick! Also the gytr dual exhaust setup.
Siick bike , my fz1 sounds alot like that. Love that choppy idle

Any rust in it? And how much did you pay for her? I recently got the same bike with 9k miles! Thanks enjoy
Such a beautiful bike still!
Best bike I ever had!
Could I use part of your video for a Yamaha R1 superbike compilation? With your credits on it of course :) thank you so much
Sure!
That is one sexy R1. I should've kept mine.
Which year?

What kind of exhaust is that sounds nice
Old r1 looks so much better
Agree 👍
Till Rn19 they looked aight RN12 is my fav
Flatspot in carbs bike sounds healthy tho and its mint

How much do you think the bike is worth if you were to sell?
@@byrek8975 I'm in NZ so around 10,000 to 12,000 NZ dollars. A bit less if i returned it back to completely stock.

The best R1 😍😍😍
sweet how he is happy
Now that is mint showroom condition.
What exhaust is that? Dope looking r1!
Thanks man, it's made by 'BOS Exhausts', slip on stubby!
Buying this on the 29th in the Philippine for 8 months stay does this bike feels fast? I mean I did check the hp 150 or 129 I think with 70 ft tq , I never had 1000cc only drove Ducati 749 for 1 year
kumar patel 152hp. Definitely fast enough for the road!!
My 01 zx-12r looks kinda like this..... Same blue
Awesome bike 🤩
Where's the clutch lever????
hows the rear wheel moving when its in neutral
Completely normal, this happens because the oil in the engine drags between the gears :P Happens on all bikes on a paddock stand unless they have no oil, or the rear brake is rubbing. Hope this helps :)
What is that high noice whisle?
AMAZING MOTORBIKE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sir Please tell me should I get a 2001 R1 in 2017
Its a great handling bike, its got great power, it looks nice...
Yes, you should get one! ;)
Yes
Arun Sharma lol I’m thinking about getting one in 2020
no clutch or brake lever?
Well spotted! I was just in the process of changing my levers over to black ones, with gold adjusters.
Very smart reving the engine when the bikes not warmed up
Yes it absolutely ruined the engine 🙄
@@scottsmall95😮
I have a question?.. Where does the sparkcord on the exzuast pipe hookup to?
I'm not really sure what a spark cord is 😜
The one next to the exup valve by the exzaust pipe??.

Top!

John Lyndon Pondoc I was in the middle of changing over the brake and clutch levers! 😁
Nice one
Motor 600cc? o 1000cc?
