I Got A Yamaha R1 | Midlife Crisis 

I just got financed for a r1 and I told the finance lady it was just midlife crisis and she said she worked harder to get me approved

Nothing wrong with testing the waters! I’ve had cruisers, cafe racers, enduros, sport touring and sport bikes. They’re all fun in their own way, enjoy brother! 😊👍🏻

Gotta love the empty headlights. Just like my soul

My R1 got 30k miles, still running like a champ

Once a sportbike rider, always a sportbike rider. You just can't escape it

One of the underrated RU-vidr, love your editing mate!!

That crossplane sounds like my V4, except the R1 has a lot more power!

' i got a mt 09' that was so funny

Hey man just 9 minutes isn't enough to justify this mad machine, she seems to be a *beast in a beauty* Looking for more videos from u with R1 Love❤️ from India

Congratulations on your beautiful new bike 👍🏻 looking forward to watching more R1 videos

Grats on the new bike! Can't wait to see more if it. Makes me want to get back into the supersport scene

I bought myself this beast. Can't wait to pick it up the 25st of march. 😁😁 i can't get enough of the exhaust sound 😍😍

I just found your channel and I must say. The production quality of your videos are incredible. Subscribed!

So glad you got the R1,because i really felt bad when you ditched the R6 these yamahas are something that no one can get off their mind and love from india dude.

Congrats on your new bike mate ;) That looks and sounds really awesome :)

I’ll be on mine this upcoming week! I cannot wait

Dude love this video have been watching your videos for like the whole day😂 Just found this channel and can't even start to describe how much I love this❤️

Congrats on the new (to you) bike!

Bmw s1000rr would suit your personality...I think 😅💜

Congrats on the upgrade

Digging the edit man, clean bike!!

Congratulations dude 🤩 love the Big Bang sound 😍 I’m sure you’ll put your own stamp on this R1 look forward to seeing what you do with it!! Adam 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

congratulations Bro Amazing Motorcycle, and welcome to my daily suffering ( 8:55 ) although it almost 2 years but I can't get used to the F/C converting. I just keep looking at it and pray that it doesn't reach 250f, for the Mileage you can change it to Kilometer but the temperature you can't. last week I saw one just like your R6 ( I'll send you the pictures on Instagram ) and I was reminded of you and said to myself that he needs to go back :) but here you are again :D again Congrats Bro and I hope its the perfect chose for you even if you are planning t keep it for a year or so I hope that you enjoy that time and you be safe. Take Care

Ayyyee!! I keep seeing these around my town and makes me wanna get one too hahah - they’re so pretty haha you made the right choice

hey man..I'm with you. I've been test riding different bikes on my channel. I'm thinking it might be time to get a hooligan bike or something more streetable. super bikes are just really boring on the streets. I sold my r1m for a 1299s but honestly now I'm looking at a Hypermotard. If I do get a hyper I'll still buy a track day bike though. love your videos dude. keep inspiring us small you tubers!

Wow, ive never seen this color on this particular r1. Looks great

And we are back on supersport fuck yah 😂❤️❤️she looks amazing bro congrats.

Not probably rather indeed, the R1 is one heck of a ride. Love the crossplanes 🔥😍

Beautiful machine! Enjoy the ride🤙

I had a 2004 R1, had a tune and exhaust done by the previous owner that claimed it has around 190hp. The bike was a beast but never would I ever want one back, a trip to the bakery had me pumped up, and God forbid you sneeze or hit a pothole the small twist of the wrist will send you flying down the street. The first time I touched the red line in 1st gear I felt like I was traveling through time, its just so damn quick you can't relax on it. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the bike, it looks so nice. Edit: You better wire yourself a manual fan on/off switch because you dont want 110 C under your balls

I'm so happy for you I remember speaking about this bike and you said one day you will have one I'm really proud bro

I love the unique R1 look. Sad the 2015 lost it! I tried riding on a 2010 model one, and...damn! Compared to was-mine 'Naomi' R6, the engine is really powerful, including the engine braking...Scared me to the bone! Soo twitchy! I do love the look on the original, though. Cute!

Easiest way I find for rough temp conversion from farenheight to celcius is (temp - 30) ÷ 2 And then back the other way is (temp x 2) + 30 Hope it helps!

Best choice bike ,congratulations.. love the crossplane crank sound ..

im a simple man... i see R1 i click, i see chaos causes i know its ganna be a gooden :D

Congratulations Chaos! Proud of you accomplishing your goal. Can't wait to see more photography sessions with that beast. I plan to get a 2012 yamaha R1 that has the same fairing scheme as my 2012 R6 soon. What makes you want to move to Austin, Tx? That would be awesome because I live in Houston, Tx which is not far from Austin. Keep up the good work brotha!

Dude I was in the same boat. Had a 04 R1 sold it for a 2010 Speed triple. I loved it but my dream bike was a 09 and up R1. Now that I own a 2010 R1 there is no other bike I want in my life besides the one I own. Good choice man!

Man that gen of r1 is one of the best looking bikes ever made. The flat black ones, ooooooof

2005 R1 was the best looking design R1 ever. Love your sarcastic humor!

Congratulations for 20k subs bro

Good bike. Had a 2009 and rode it for 10 trouble-free years. Very solid platform. A bit heavy and slower to steer but very stable in the corners

Your the best mahn keep making more videos

Congrats bro

Good for you! I just turned 53, about to get a ZX14R. The crisis continues lol

Congratulations!!🎊🎉...she's beautiful 😍😍

My Favourite bike. Congrats man

I love your sense of humour 😁 and you have good taste in bikes too 👍🏻

Awesome bike! love my 09 R1

I'm 46 and also have a mid-life crisis R1. I bought a 2012 Raven version, so not much different than yours. Although, if you plan on changing your exhaust, I highly recommend the titanium Graves system. It sounds even more amazing than the Two Brothers, and looks far better with its carbon fiber twin cans out back. Enjoy your Yamaha brother, and be sure to ride safe fellow old timer.

New Favorite Channel.Motonositys R1 is what made me love Motorcycles

Love your videos bro 😁❤️😍

I've got 3 motorcycles a 2016 Yamaha R1,a 2015 Triumph Speed Triple 1050,and a 2009 Ducati Monster 1100 Midlife Crisis bases have been covered.I'm 50 right now,I'll still be riding these bikes in my older years.I had a 2012 Yamaha R1,the 2016 feels so much lighter and narrower.

I love your new bike. I have a 2012 R1 with 14k miles (22,530 km).

congrats on the r1

Hello from D.C. Hey I'm thinking about moving to Austin also. Just went to Austin for the first time for the Moto GP event at COTA and it was AWESOME.

Just bought a 2014 r1 a month ago, they do run super hot in traffic. That sound though👌🏽 enjoy!

brother your vidio editting is awesome keep it up😍

I live in Austin, TX. I hope you move here someday! You are the man! The Legend! I admire and love all your videos❗️🤘🏿

Sweet ride. I couldn't decide on super bike or streetfighter. So I got bother. Yzf600r and a 650r ninja which I made into streetfighter. I actually got the 650r for my wife, but she was scared and i took it over. Worked out for me. Love them both. I have a 2 brothers racing on the 650 and going to get another for my 600. Best sounding exhaust I've ever heard.

Nice video man I like this Channel because is help in me on my camera 📷 learning and also bikes. If you move to Texas move to Dallas better city

Enjoy. Love the sound but I also like my screaming Ninja Gen 4. It's just broken in with now over 30k kms on it. Tip for running them cooler - get rid of the Cat and also get the fueling sorted with an ECU flash tune. I had my mid life crysis around your age and have been riding litre sports bikes since.

Hell yeah buddy! SICK bike!!! I HAD my mind set on the CP4 r1 and there was NOTHING or NO ONE that would change that. UNTIL! I stopped at my local Honda dealer for a friend who needed to drop in to purchase a oil filter and oil for his cbr 600rr. And while I am inside for the first 10mins, this damn salesman comes over to me and brings me to the center of their showroom floor and shows me a BRAND NEW cbr 1000rr in matte black with just the right amount of red decals to make it look AWESOME AF!!! IMO. And tells me that this brand new, ZERO MILES, SEXY ASS 1000cc liter bike is a LEFTOVER model from early 2017 that they are in DESPERATE NEED of selling. Shows me the tag hanging off the left side of the clip-ons with the STUPID low price of $9990!!! Although insanely low for a showroom liter bike with ZERO MILES, still wasn't ready to turn my back on my BABY that I been dreaming of owning for so long, the r1 with the cp4 engine. But then he catches me before I walk out the door and tells me his manager says they can let the bike go for ANOTHER $1000 off of the $9990 tag. So $8990 USD for a freaking BRAND NEW cbr 1000rr!!! That is now in my garage! Absoutly LOVE the bike so far. Still a little sad for the yamaha tho. But at that price, I could NOT walk away from what I FEEL is a ONCE IN A LIFETIME deal. So although I don't get to walk out my home and see my DREAM bike, YET! I'm still pretty stoked to have the CBR. And I'm ALMOST POSITIVE I can sell it at the end of this riding season for WELL OVER what I paid for it and make a little money to put towards my BABY!!! So yeah, a 2015 or newer r1 will STILL, 100%, be parked in my garage in the NOT SO DISTANT FUTURE!!! Anyway, love the bike man! Great choice!!!

I sort of agree that the 2014-2016 mt09 isn't one of the best looking bikes but still a good looking bike. The riding position of the mt09 leaves me wanting a sportbike (never had a super sport) and I only have had my mt09 for 6 months BUT you have to love that ENGINE in simple words its amazing for riding hooligan.

I agree 100% about the riding position!! Iam 48 years old and ring out a 2017-CBR-1000SP2 every weekend!!! Telepathic handling!!!! Stupid power everywhere!!

That thing is GORGEOUS

Nice bro! Congrats on the new bike! I still think you need the MT07! Buuuuuuuut an MT10 might just be more your kinda fun factor! Have fun and stay safe!

I live in Austin , Let me know when you arrive 👍🏼 A few good roads here

Finally😍😍

Yasssssssssss! R6's sibling is here 🙌

man that is one sexy bike - plan on getting this year next as well :) Sticking with my 2006 for now though

My R6 has about 48k on it at the moment and still doesn't leak or burn oil. Enjoy her, looks awesome 👌

Nice! r1 or S1000rr would be my next sportbike. If you come to texas make a meet and greet!

This model looks way better than the newer ones. Especially those double undertail exhaust.

I get mine in January, can't wait....

R6 is a masterpiece & it's one of the most beautiful design ever Yamaha create

yes please move to Austin! we will welcome you with open arms but if the Celsius to Fahrenheit is tricky I got some bad news lol also congrats on the new bike! she is a beaut

Yasss boi good choice😎😎

Awesome bike bro

indeed the only think the MT series lack in contrast to the R - the MotoGP charisma. And well, it is hard to get rid of that riding position, even though it's very uncomfortable on the long run :) Enjoy the R1, can't wait for the photos - it's a logical next step after having owned an R6...

It’s a beauty, be safe

Beautiful bike! Now I want the same one 🤔

Bro... I have mid life crisis every other month... right now it's an Aprilia RSV4. But wow, this might be a machine we drive for a while. Ride what you want when you want to... or your dead!lol Best of luck with an Austin future.

Good on u mate. Beautiful bike. God I'm so jealous. Wish I had your problems. Only owning a bike for less than 1 year before u change. Thumbs up from me mate 👍

Thats just dope

Love it

It feels slow because you're riding in STD mode. Try switching to A mode and the power comes out right away. Also in order to change from F to C, you need to hold the Select Button on Speedo for about 7-8 sec and it will change o Celsius. I own the '09, love the bike.

If you ever run into any issues like hard to start, give us a shout on the R1-Forum. This is the most reliable generation of the R1 with only a few common easy to repair issues.

The r1 sounds so nice. I tried to sit on one but it was too high for me. That sound though. I can always tell when i hear one go by. Super sexy. I know you're ocd about cleaning your bike as much as i am. Look up maxim sc1 spray. I just tried it and my jaw dropped. it puts a nice new shine on it.

rock on old man i will get one some day:-)

Pressing and holding "SELECT" should change the units of measurement, however certain bikes such as the Canadian versions do not have this function. Give it a try!

I wish i could have any bike... 😥 well really like the video.. awsome editing...

Bro I love your yamaha R6. I wish i could have a one like yours.

Nice ride, bro

Hey man, seems like you might need a "flasher relay" ? I noticed your turn signal on the dash flashes k@K fast! haha probably due to those flush mount turn signals? My R6 did the same thing until i fitted a flasher relay. Or is that normal on a R1?

Thank god the MT09 is gone... Loving the R1 my man.

Just got mine this Monday. Its my dream bike cheers. Do you have any problems with your bike?

You can say that again! I mean that's exactly how I felt about mt-09 when I was almost about to buy one. Through some tryouts I realized it's amazing bike and it does have its own territory but it's not super sports after all. I just couldn't shake off my love to super uncomfy, stupildy and uselessly fast super sports bikes.

I love how it overheates and requires you to move

35K km mileage for a 6-year-old R1 is not that much, I just wonder why the 4 headpipes get different colour swift, and the Y-pipe is so weirdly positioned compared to an aftermarket Y-pipe

Love my old r1, Rene she is called. Had her for 10+ years. About to hit 70k on the clock. Still runs like a clock, will smoke most more modern bikes and still more than i can honestly handle. Still makes me nervous / excited whenever i swing the leg over.
