Top 5 Upgrades Yamaha R7 

Nice dude, it such a blast to ride in the canyons. I got trapped in the TrackDays and racing I’m totally sucked in now lol

Thanks man, I really appreciate that. Congrats on the new bike!

Hopefully I’ll get that tune soon, I’m looking forward to it and dropping some engine braking with the tube will be cool do, thanks for watching man

Thanks bro, and thanks for the clip it worked out great

Thanks for the lil tutorial

You are so good at wheelies

thanks man, congrats on the new bike!

thanks man I really appreciate that, its funny how the editing just becomes a game and another hobby right along side the bike lol. I appreciate you noticing the efforts

Haha, yea man this bike is addicting!

Thanks Alex, i appreciate it!!

Thanks ck!! I had a lot of fun making this one, enjoy your weekend 🍻

💪

Yea it worked out really well, thank you

🙌

@@TheBombgardeneryou are amazing!

Haha, thanks bro I appreciate that

Haha right on bro🤙🏼 had alit of fun with that vid…. Ow to learn how to wheelie 😬😂🍻

@@ScoutsOut those second gear power stand up’s were impressive for that bike, my stock 08 gsxr750 no chance. I’d say second gear clutch ups would be easier to learn, 1st gear throttle control is key or you could loop out kinda easy. 🤙🏼

Yea bro for sure, I think I’ll just be learning the double clutch on the grom for a while 😂

❤

Thank you!!🍻

Yea bro I’m super lucky to have all these twisty roads around out slide the city

Thanks I’m really enjoying it

Thank you, it’s been a great bike!!

Haha thanks it was fun making this one, yea I finally got the filter just need to figure out the tuner

@@ScoutsOut looking forward to it =) hope it comes woth some explanation for beginners like me =p

I am blushing ☺

@@TheBombgardener Keep it going mates =) R7 is such a good looking and fun bike!

Yea not quite a beginner bike imo either

It’s the R3 that’s considered beginner’s bike, not the R7 ;)

Nice bro, super exciting… let me k is what ya think!!!

@@ScoutsOut I will man!

Thanks man 👊🏼

Thanks I’m really enjoying this bike

Thanks man, Will do it’s been fun!!

Thanks bro… I got a fun lap in yesterday on one of my fav local spots, I’m feeling it today though I need to get back in shape

@@ScoutsOut Yeah man... Mountains here are steep... #JustSaying... Lucky we stock a healthy supply of Mountain Top Radlers Hahaha

It’s definitely worth a flash

Thanks man, I have yet to use a toce I’m sure they are all good though, each might just give a different harmonic but I would think as far as performance they should all give relatively the same flow out of the motor

Thank you for your advice on the TOCE exhaust. Craig, from MotoBros in Lewisville, TX did the install, he even did a RU-vid short of the bike. It is much louder than my M4 exhausts, and really looks good on the 60TH anniversary. Check out MotoBros when you get a chance, I think that you may like their website and RU-vid content.

Just watched that short the bike and exhaust are sick, cool channel thanks

Yea for the most part as long as you dont go from dead clutch drop alot they do pretty good

Yea for sure man, I got the intake just gotta flash now. Which flash did you go with

Whre did you get your flash for just 250?

@@photojobs8233 2wd something or another out of Washington state

@@photojobs8233 MooreMafia best flash

I put the DNA air filter and stage two on. The air filter I didn't notice any change but the stage 2 I sure did. If you wanna go further supposedly the velocity stacks are a big improvement. Or you could go all on with the yoshimura air box replacement

Thanks man, no sadly I haven’t. I took my zx4rr to the track this weekend and had it done and it was a world of difference, I will be doing the r7 soon though

Thanks bro, yea unless you want to get more out of the bike. You can still get it tuned run much better. I just plan to wait until I get the intake installed and a tuner to have the best performance gain I can get

@@ScoutsOut I’m just looking for good sound. My worry is it affecting the bike in any negative way, so if that’s not the case with the Yoshimura system, I’m gonna get it :)

@@ScoutsOut Awesome keep it up, I actually look forward to every upload. Love the r7

Thanks man I really appreciate that

Thanks, I’ve never been one for phone mounts on a bike. Bombgardener is working a vid for that if you wanna check out his channel, he should have it out soon. If I do a phone mount it’s going to be in the inset of the fuel tank, just not sure when I’ll do it

Yea that is common with all bikes, just takes a little finesse at the beginning

@@ScoutsOut good to know I’m thinking about getting the R7 for my first superbike

Not a bad choice at all, I still really like mine but it did turn it into a track bike and have been amateur racing it which has been a blast

Yea it works for both

on this bike I say yes, even with my air filter and stage 2 cap Im not running to hot or going lower than 8% on my fuel trims. I think the gain from a good tune would be worth it though

Right on yea I’m loving the mods I’ve put on the bike. I did just get levers finally and that’s going to be next weeks vid. The levers are nice but I can’t recommend them as I had to modify them to get them to work. At least companies are starting to finally make them though

@@ScoutsOut wow nice..looking forward to your new episodes..:)

@@ScoutsOut where should I get mine? Wait for tst?

Still nothing out that I’ve seen, but I did just see a vid from Yamaha promoting gilles who makes parts and they have a nice set of levers but I can’t find them on there site yet

@@ScoutsOut I’ll stay in tune getting mine in 30 days

It is you are right, I don’t know why I keep saying that. I’ve said it in multiple videos lol super annoying

that varies for people, I honestly don't like to ride it for more than an hour at a time. Other sport bikes like the Ninja 650, cbr650 I also just got the new Aprilia Tune 660 and those are way more comfortable to ride IMO

Drove the r7 150 miles in 4 hours and heavy traffic.... honesty quite comfortable at 5’10”

For the percentage of people that can tell the difference I would agree but the majority will not and just want to enjoy some cosmetic upgrades 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@ScoutsOut the first thing you do when you get in a new car: adjust the seat, move mirrors around, moce the steering wheel around...ect, you adjust the ergos to better fit your body so that you can drice it better. Its the exact same concept on a bike, but with clipons and rearsets they serve a dual purpose. You dump the bike= after market rearsets are easier and less expensive to fix as are clipons. Not to mention the suspension on the R7 feels like a pogo stick out of box. Making your bike easier and more predictable is worth its weight in gold. Can save you from so many accidents whether you are a new rider or an old rider, not to mention it allows for better handling which makes a bike like the R7 so much more fun.

@@ChaseN194lol

start by giving it little throttle and work your way up to where it goes up to ballance point. you dont want to give it to much because u might loop. For the back brake part i recomend starting to wheelie at low speeds where you have nothing to worry about if you panic and slam on the brake too hard. You will get the feel for it after some time.

I was outta town and couldn’t check, but just did and the main light has two filaments one For light and the other for bright

😂 right, that part was funny. I almost edited in some floating heart emoji’s I r something lol

@@ScoutsOut that woulda been puurrfect at the same time I think the subtle rub was awesome to catch XD , really enjoyed the video especially the R7 content!

Thanks bro 🍻

Good to know

감사합니다, 이 길을 타게 된 것은 정말 행운입니다

@@ScoutsOut is that Korean

I can’t lol I suck at wheelies, I n first gear going slow it will wheelie and clutch us is needed for 2nd . But if your talking supper slow creep lol would say yes you could clutch it up

No it sure doesn’t, but the bike runs acceptable without a tune and just an exhaust, it’s better with the tune I just put on it.

Yea for sure, I was looked at a set on eBay but I really like these rizomas

I guess it depends on the state, city, country you live in. We still do t have to get smogged so being pulled over and cited by a dbag is always possible. From my experience and where I live, police have better things to do

@@ScoutsOut Yeah i suppose. Im in the ventura area

I wouldn’t worry about it unless your reving the hell out of it every where you

@@ScoutsOut 😂😂

Factory color for 22 and 23.

Haha not sure they will let me race a turbo r7 but man it would be fun to do

To be honest I’m not great with suspension. I am terrible at setting it up, have you tried setting it up or paying someone to set it up for you? I know mine needs work especially the forks my rebound is really harsh and is making my front tire cup.

@@ScoutsOut yes, I tried, everyday. And paid a couple of guys to do it for me. The problem is in the substandard springs in the front forks. I checked on the revzilla site, they’ve got only rear suspension. But this bike and it’s engine and ergos are so good that if I could upgrade the suspension, this will be the only bike I’ll ride till become a cripple old man.

Weird, I’m sure there are good options out there for the bike. They are used in MotoAmerica and you know those guys aren’t running stock suspension

Depends on what you mean for beginner Never ever ridden any kind of motorcycle then no If you have ridden dirt bikes growing up and your good with the basic fundamentals of riding a motorcycle but this is your first street bike then yea I think it’s ok

You have to look into your state laws, some states it’s ok and some are not

Yea bro for sure I did this vid a while after the top 5 but I like the r6 tube Yamaha R7 Shorter throttle tube & new grips ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TUchT-t9xBU.html

Good call man I don’t know what I was thinking, after quite a bit of research it looks like you technically can but they look a little sketchy.

Engine modifications like an exhaust system, will change how much air and fuel the bike needs. The bikes computer controls that but can only change so much. A tune is changing what the computer does for air fuel mixture.

@@ScoutsOut thank you I really appreciate the help!

Woodcraft clip-on risers 50mm clamp would raise the bars. Woodcraft rearsets might lower and bring forward the foot position a little

I mean why not just get a mt07? It looks dope and is a very nice street bike. Playful and powerful for the street.

@@rubberduckyy5098 the MT07 has bad brakes, suspension I like some fairing for the highway.

I don’t have a phone mount on my R7, but the blue bike at the end is BombGardener’s. He has an install vid on his channel if you want to check it out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-huMA5B8ujiM.html

Haha yup sure is

@@ScoutsOut Knew it! Saw Estrella Road. I use to live off of Branch/ burgundy off of 46. Good times. Hell yeah dude. #805

Haha small world, loads of fun back roads out here

haha yea I hear ya, I think they would look a little better pointing down as well

Yup suspension is not set up for my weight it’s totally spongy and got to learn that for sure on the tack a few weekends ago, sadly vid not in order of priority just the upgrades I liked the most

That’s interesting would you give me a list of priorities for mods I’m picking my r7 up in 30 days

@@cameronjames9534 1 Watch Dave Moss Tuning series of videos on the bike beginning with this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cHmMf2zCtyM.html. Some of his videos are premium, totally worth the $10 for a month to watch them. 2 Either learn how to properly adjust your suspension setup (via Moss website) or pay Moss for his remote tuning session. Here's a free video about that service ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sl4Ji_c-8L0.html. Process applies to street and/or track. 3 Change the fork oil to 20w, any brand (Moss uses Maxima). The stock fork oil is too thin. Fork oil "Dump and Run" how-to videos on Moss RU-vid channel and website. 4 Ergonomics. Adjust all the stock controls (bars, levers, pegs, shifter) as best you can for now. Here is a free video about the process in general ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-47YG4dAwOIM.html. The R7 ergos video will show you the problems with the stock bits. Purchase aftermarket controls (bars, levers, rearsets) asap. 5 If you're over 200 lbs you'll need to respring the forks and the shock. The shock is fine otherwise unless you can ride at knee down speeds, then you'll need an aftermarket or surrogate shock soon. You can learn all about how to do this on the Moss website, or pay him for a remote tuning session.

ASV levers are definitely nice

I’m not sure man sry

It’s hard to tell in video, have your heard the yosh in person?

@@ScoutsOut I have, it sounds very good just the SC project sound savage as fuck if you know what I mean. Just really raw and loud, but I do need to get a quieter exhaust and the yoshi does sound good

I know what ya mean I’ve always wanted an sc project. I remember the sound the v4 Aprilia makes it just sounds sick. I’m probly going to put one on my tuono 660

@@ScoutsOut just ordered the yoshi for my R7, not sure about where you are but race tracks have a noise limit and I can't find a baffle for the CR-T anywhere and the main reason I swapped the MT07 for the R7 was for twisties and track days

I live in CA and the main track I go to doesn’t has sound restrictions but if I finally go to laguna seca like I want it does have sound restrictions. But the yosh I got came with the baffle

You can ask for it from the dealer for more money, but most don’t come with it

Dash

Do you mean QS? Is so it’s for the quick shifter

Yea the r6 is ridiculous now totally sucks, the fz is a great bike enjoy!

No they don’t do as good as stick, there is always a trade off

No problem, there super nice

Yamaha R7 Tuned with FTECU! is it worth it? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T5xWr_UTphM.html I did this tuner

Oh cool glad you guys will get the bike too, it’s a lot of fun

Your right I know, I’ve said that in two videos. It’s just clutchless shifting, I get skater brained sometimes

@@ScoutsOut I really enjoyed the video. I went for the r-racer screen by puig. Totally agree with your recommendations.

@@tobiassergeant4852 awesome thanks man

I’ll try and add them, I’ve been putting them on newer vids, thanks

Yea it sure does, just got a new mic a few months ago. Hopefully it’s better now 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yes it is, that is correct

@@ScoutsOut does the 6 fit the 7?

Yes

Yea they were 400, not that that’s better, they are stupid expensive and sadly I like them so much I’d buy them again

yea not well in this video, but I did multiple videos on the exhaust install and sound if you want to hear it better

🤣 give um hell bro!

😂

Dang that sucks man, it’s not the fastest bike it depends on what you want to do with it and what bikes other people have to enjoy riding g in groups

Yea mainly a legal thing and I hear ya, nothing ng safer than just turning and looking
