2006 Yamaha R1

[C3L1CA]

I'm bored so figured I'd make a thread on my bike as it makes it easier to look back when stuff was done and track progress.

My dream bike growing up was always some sort of black liter bike and being Yami fan I picked up my '06 R1 in June 2012.

When I bought it it had most of the basic mods I wanted done to it already.

Mods when picked up:
Solo seat cover
Tinted Windscreen
Full Akrapovic exhaust
GTYR Filter
Power Commander PC3
Tuned on pump gas
Intergrated tail light
Flush mount front turn signals
Cool red/black grips
Swing arm mounted plate bracket
Black Adjustable levers
Red Corbin Seat

Rode it for most of the summer without any big mods

Around July I had the urge to go to the track so I ordered up a PMR kill switch and Schnitz Racing lowering strap brackets and a lowering strap.

I think I ran some mid 10's nothing real impressive but got hooked again.


Rode it around some more, went through a few tires, installed a radar detector, and rode it out to Sturgis.

Eventually I wanted to get every little bit out of it so I got mirror block of plates, double buble windscreen, stomp grip, 520 chain conversion with +1 rear sprocket, quick shifter, smog block off plates and eventually a small nitrous kit.

Mid tear down for nitrous and block off plate install:

Went to the track after the nitrous install but the plastic nitrous line fell out and wasn't spraying so kind of a bummer. Wanted to get the most out of it so I ordered an extension kit and a drag radial and went back to the track with a bunch of style guys.

Best pass to date

This weekend I ordered up an adjustable kick stand and lowering links to help get a better launch. I also plan on getting some more aggressive gearing as well.

Still tring to debate if I should go with an air shifter or a bigger nitrous kit which would let me run a solid 50rwhp shot with race gas.



Hopefully you guys don't mind a bike thread on 'style!:VP2:

That trap is sick, you need to get out and run some big dogs this year instead of picking on us little guys.

I like the thread.

Seen this in person. Nice bike! Needs some boost!

[b00sted_spyder]

We need some more bikes in this forum. What bike did you have before this? I think I remember you having an r6 raven?

Thanks Aaron! You know me I'm always down for whatever, find me some good stuff. I just like to have fun on it

Thanks Shawn!

There are a few other guys that have bikes on here, I just don't think most make threads, but i was bored and looking at a lot of parts this weekend.

Yep I had a raven r6 before this which I traded for a super moto at the beggining of 2012. I had the super moto, R1 and my gsx for a while which was a cool to have 3 cool vehicles.

^That makes 2 of us, I know of some people that might be good, probably off the bottle though.

Gahhhh this thread is making me wish I still had a bike lol. I might have something worth picking on this summer

[evotuner]

I like it buddy, nasty trap speed!!

At the moment I don't think I'll run around with the bottle on like I used to. 153 was the best trap ever too, trapped high 140's consitently the last day.

Get another one! I'm starting to think the cheap, reliable, fast only applies to cars. Bikes can be pretty much all three when comparing to cars

Thanks dude!







Talked to a few local tuners and they all said my nitrous setup should be just fine to spray a bigger shot at it without upgrading. So I'll order up air shifter stuff tonight, new nitrous brackets to mount the bottle in the swing arm, new sprockets and bigger nitrous jets since I lost all of mine! Order up a clutch this week too as the stock one shouldn't have lasted as long as it did and maybe some velocity stacks if I feel like blowing money. Then the bike will be done as far as anything I wanted to do to it besides maybe a gas cap and head work if I ever win the lottery.

Lets see how deep into the 9's I can get this pig:spin:

If I could afford it lol. I wish I would have bought a bike.
I could have bought two nice rockets for what I have wrapped up in the talon. Or I could have built one hell of a turbo busa! I def miss my busa lol
