You know, at this point, you could have bought a Base R1 and been fine.
Thanks for the free gift, I ordered my X4 yesterday 🎉
Who cares what it cost? This is your bike. From top to bottom, it is exactly the way you wanted it to be. It is beautiful. As someone who transitioned from custom road biking to motorcycles, I found this series fantastic. I can't wait to see this beautiful beast in more of your videos.
That is correct, I also buy cheaper "projects" that end up being more expensive in the end but at least there are new parts on it and made for my taste 🙂
Well if "the way you wanted it" is stock with some fairings it's kinda waste of time. Good YT material, but waste of time.
Exactly, I rebuilt my Yamaha XJ6 I bought from a wreck for $1,500 AUD, spend about $2000 to repair it and I love it.
@@xani666 an ex race bike is most definitely not stock lmao
That colour is absolutely beautiful, don't hide it with stickers. What a great combination, the blue and silver looks fire. Great project!
Tip for drilling holes to a certain depth: if you don’t have a drill with a depth gauge, just wrap a piece of sticky tape around the bit, and stop drilling when you reach it.
Priceless is the fact that you enjoyed building the bike to your liking. Nice.
absolutely love this series, i was waiting every day for the next one xD
Not gonna lie, kind of addicted to this series.
The fact that you worked on it from the state it was in until now makes it that much more special than just buying it already finished. By now Im sure you know that bike inside and out which will make it that much easier for you to troubleshoot should you run into any problems later on down the road. Keep the videos coming. We are here to watch, and I love bikes so it is entertaining.
Your hard work and dedication is enviable. Your R1 looks amazing!
I can’t wait to see the final final results.
The blue fairings look great!
That feeling of not wanting the project to end but then itching to ride the bike is so real... but after it's all back together getting to rip is the best part! 🤙 Cheers mate!
Is it worthwile saving a couple of thousand dollars? Hell no!
Is it an awesome informative journey? Hell Yes!
What you gained from this project is knowledge and experience which you probably cant get if you just bought a regular stock R1, so yes, this process was worth it! Knowledge is priceless!
thats the fun thing of fixing something yourself instead of having someone do it/buy something thats alright
i was like oh cool another episode and at the end i was like aw shit this is the last episode
so so so so so clean, i really love the painted tank too, looks better without the tank cover. i bet it feels so good to finally have it basically finished after a long process to bring it back to a street monster. enjoy and ride safe!!
I would congratulate you but you haven't fixed the horn yet
Hahah that's fair!
The combination of silver and blue is so good
I converted my old one from street to track, raced it for years and kept changing it. I would never try to change it back but having said that- race bikes are serviced pretty much every weekend. Unless a stress thing happens from being flogged or crashed it should be a sweet ride for many years.
It may cost as much as it did, but the experience of building your own R1? That is priceless man.
Don't you dare add black stickers to that gorgeous paint job! The bike is beautiful and even though I have little interest in a R1 I love this bike and thoroughly am enjoying this series. Keep up the great work!
One of my favorite series on youtube currently! Keep up the content man! 💯👌
i love the blue with the bronze forks and especially how the silver tank fits with the silver engine 🔥
The bike is beautiful and unique. And you had fun fixing her up. It's truly your bike, and that's priceless. Cheers.
To know your bike the way you do… absolutely worth it.
Loved this series.
I say it's Totally worth it!.
It's like getting a girlfriend, you'd have to find the things you are willing to change, the things you'd have to accept, the things that it comes with. Before riding the heck out of it.....the bike. 😅
I love your vids! ❤
That’s the most beautiful colour I have seen and the journey and customisation that you got to choose makes it all yours and even more special.
knowing your bike deep down will save you more bucks in the future. i think that alone is so worth it already. really awesome job and thanks for sharing this with us!
I believe that satisfaction of working on it and slowly rebuilding it adds a lot to joy after, when its able to run perfectly. So even if you didn't save some money, its absolutely worth it! Hopefully you wont run into often reaccuring issues as sometimes happens with this type of rebilds. Worth it for sure ^^
I am from India and I randomly came upon the first video in this series 2 days before and I got hooked to it, seeing the final version of the R1 in this video which you just released feels like fate. Nice work man,keep it up.
Here we go!
If you are worried about drilling to far in the radiator measure the length of the bolt then tape the drill bit so when you insert the drill bit and the tape starts or about to enter the hole stop drilling.
i thoroughly enjoyed this series.
imo, of course it was worth it. not only did you save some money, but you learned so much about it in the process of rebuilding it, and that is priceless!
cheers!
Just to say hats off to you, I never knew I wanted a R1, but your enthusiasm was infectious! Congrats I hope you have loads of great memories with this bike, I hope you do another!
I think the Bitubo suspension is the bike's cynosure. You never see Bitubo in the wild here and its such a process to install *properly*. So sweet to see those particular doodads on top of the forks.
my friend restored a $200 1990s moped, costed around $1500 and he said it was fun and now he has a very awesome authentic moped that is fun to ride. I tried it and it felt brand fucking new or maybe even better and he always got the looks from other bikers in my country, even bikers who have 1000cc
When it comes to those metal parts / belly pan, you are not missing the brackets. They bolt on the cat, but yours is missing. You can not run them with a straight pipe, but there are others that make custom pans for the straight pipe set ups
The only thing to consider is, if you are shopping for them, make sure that it's for the stock fairing and not the race ones. They are cut differently
The R1 looks awesome, your videos rebuilding your R1 has inspired me to buy one also.
I bought a 2015 Yamaha R1 in the blue and silver livery, it was also converted for track use but most of the OEM parts where available.
It also has upgraded Ohlins suspension in the front and back so that was a big plus
Only thing i have to do is register it. but for now it looks awesome next to my MT09SP 2023
Anyway, awesome bike you got there and i love the new fairings
So happy to see this project finished, it really looks awesome! Also very entertaining to watch from the beginning to the end, can't wait for new projects like this, channel def deserves more and more subs
Loved this EP! It is always awesome to see a vision come to life. You absolutely nailed the blue and silver color combo!
Definitely worth the journey of learning the bike and repairing the bike as you go, all along with saving money on top.
Oh, common! That start up sound... The best music! 🎼
I have an 2015 R1M, I have to say been following this build absolutely love this mate. Good on ya.
Wow man, real inspirational job, from the start.
20:41 - 20:45 is of value beyond any marginal savings.
I think the work behind to transform the R1 is worth every penny. Building (or customize) your own bike is an experience like no others. Cheers mate!
I absolutely think that this whole process was worth it. I can tell you I have bought bikes just to fix and sell, and also bought bikes to keep. Whatever the circumstances, the ones that I worked on the most, I felt a greater connection to and therefore felt more comfortable riding them. Your R1 looks great and I feel like you have a stronger connection to it because you know its ins and outs, you can't buy that and I hope you really enjoy it.
Can't get over how good it looks. Especially that silver tank and silver wheels over that blue fairing. Hope you don't go for blue tank cover over the silver one since that makes your bike look unique compared to that other blue R1. Can't wait for the next episode to drop.
Lol you’re telling me everyone doesn’t get free thousand dollar fairings on their rebuild projects?! 😂
Hahah everyone's an influencer these days so I'm sure they do
lol are they even that good
Have been following all along. Brilliant. Amazing job. Totally worth it. Well done.
The Drop I've been waiting for weeksss...YOU DID IT BROTHER KUDOS
Great project! Cool format! Well done mate!!
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
out of all the bike channels yours is my favorite ❤ that r1 you used for fairing inspiration is also one of my favorites too!
This series was so good, enjoy your awesome bike mate
Congratulations on getting it together man. That bike def needed some TLC. Enjoy your ride and stay safe!
That silver and blue livery is sharp! It’s a stunner! You’ve now got a bike customised to how you want it and haven’t spent a fortune. You also know the bike. Priceless!
I like that fastener kit too. Hard to get all that including the windscreen mounts in one. I’m on the lookout now. Please consider posting a link.👍🏻
Totally worth it, love the color and this build series !
Absolutely worth while. You now know the bike inside out, you know what you have and I'm sure you have gotten a great feeling of accomplishment from doing everything (priceless).
Top tip with these aftermarket fairings, the oil cooler plastic..cover it in heat shield take similar, as it will melt
Bike is beautiful! Great job!
Love the DIY aspect of any project.
Bro this is so dope! Was it worth it? The smile on your face says it all. It’s yours so you enjoy it! Happy for you
You did a really amazing job and let it look pretty easy. I wish nice time with your new baby now. Hopefully you let us see more of it soon. Well done Chaos!
Great series, I done this with a street triple r earlier this year to save myself money but getting the bike I wanted. It is surprising what you can save if you never plan on selling the bike. Hope you do more series like this.
Your R1 looks fantastic! Well done. Doesn't matter too much what it cost. The experience has been amazing. Thanks for sharing so well.
tbh even if it costs more its still worth it, getting to build the bike you own is way better than just to buy one ready
To each his own and that blues absolutely nothing I would pick, but I love watching this channel and I'm happy that you're happy with the result and FYI for the future, those tank covers leave a quarter of an inch all around the bottom of the tank. They do not cover the complete tank for some reason.
Vf designs makes a great rear indicator replacement that looks amazing for these bikes
It looks amazing. Well done about leaving the silver tank. It mixes really nice with the blue. Big thumbs up for this project. Enjoy your R1!!!
Love that color. Leave the stickers off. Plus, I’m glad you went with the silver gas tank and wheels. Such a beautiful bike. Nice job!
I usually find sports bikes all look the same to me but that looks incredible. Good call on leaving the silver tank.
I love every episode of this series !
definetly worth it.... factor in the amount of knowledge and understanding about the bike that you've got as well.
currently in the exact situation as you with a CBR1000rr here in Kenya.
Absolutely worth it for what you learned from it and we got this excellent content!
Loved this series, hope for more like it. That color is absolutely stunning, great job!
OMG Finally !!! Congrats woohoo 🥳💪❤
I think it is worth it. You have new parts everywhere and a very good understanding of your bike. It looks 100% better and should run sweet. Well done
love this series so much
Thank you for sharing this journey with us, it's been fun and expiring to follow your project. You should be proud of your R1, it looks amazing 😎
Honestly I feel as though it's not even about the money, but the journey of working on it by yourself and making it your own bike, turning it into your own dreambike as you worked on it. I mean even if you bought a secondhand one you would have had to work on it anyways to make it yours.
did the same with my 07 daytona 675, it was a little rough but I got it cheap and been in love with it since since, wouldn’t trade her for a pristine ninja 300 in this lifetime.
It is worth it because at the same time you can upgrade the parts and customize it the way you like and it is a unique rare Yamaha R1 love this video. I'm from 🇵🇭 dreaming to own yamaha R6 soon.
Sometimes it’s not the product we chase, it’s the journey. It’s easy to buy a show quality bike/car, but there’s no fun in that. It will always be a garage queen. You did it right - you got to enjoy the bike in the poorest of state and build the one you truly wanted
The journey is totally worth it. Get that suspension tuned pls. And find your local bitubo guy and see about the right spring rates and a potential revalve for your riding
I was waiting for this video honestly🤩
I love what you did, the content and achievement. That colour rocks too!
Ex-race bikes on the road are bonkers! I rode an 09 CBR1000RR of a friend that was converted back from track to road (in trim only), that thing had a CRAZY powerband, 2nd gear half throttle over 6000rpm and it would just start to power wheelie. Compared to a stock CBR1000RR, it was a night and day difference, and it's not like any stock modern liter superbike is sluggish by any means.
i loved it!!!!!! Currently rebuilding a crashed r1
My favorite series
Great work man! Cheers 🍻
I love the colour of the fairings, along with the colour of the wheels and tank. Not a big fan of the faux carbon fibre but other than that, it's a gorgeous bike. And even if it was more than a stock r1, you made it your own, the way you wanted to
well done dude loved every step and it looks awesome with the tank
Dude , as long as you are happy. Well done on getting it this far. Nothing sounds like a cross plain engine.
Probably mentioned, but Keyserts seem a lot easier than the insert you use. Drill, tap, insert, and lock. You'll get a flush insert that way.
love the bike it looks sick
Absolute beautiful restoration job mate
Beautiful end result, I love the original style but pls, change the mirrors. Get some Rizoma ones or something more sporty, and install end bar turning signals. They look Soo clean and are pretty visible
honestly thought the costs were gonna put you above 12k considering how much you did but i think you've done really well for yourself and in the process made a bike which is very "you" so congrats
We got chaos finish his R1 build before GTA 6
gorgeous bike ! That baby blue looks amazing on it
Great job 💪🏻 bike looks beautiful!!!!
The Carbon Fiber and Blue looks so sick. That's a fantastic looking bike now !!!
I'm going through issues with mine, my wife complained that she couldn't go on the bike with me so I bought a rear seat kit, new mudguard and all new bolts and fittings and $2500 later I find out my frame doesn't have two damn tabs to mount it all from the factory because it was meant for a single rider. FFS -_-
So now I have to figure out how to attach them to the frame and find a wrecked bike that has them.
Bikes are pain XD
Wow man!! Enjoyed this R1 series. All the colors, even with the fake carbon.. looks great!
Finally! I was waiting for this video
