Pushing the Limits on the Street: YAMAHA YZF-R1 Custom
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "YAMAHA YZF-R1" custom by Webike community user "Linko". The owner, who highly regarded his previous ZX-6R as an excellently crafted supersport bike, fulfilled his desire for more precise torque control by purchasing the crossplane engine YZF-R1, which allows for a more sensitive handling of power. This bike has been custom-tailored with convenience in mind. First, the RAM MOUNTS X-Grip & Bar Mount Base Set has been installed. It allows for complete freedom in adjusting the angle, height, and position, and any motorcycle rider would appreciate the ease and value this product brings. Next, for protection and grip during track riding, TechSpec Grip Star Tank Pads were added. They cover a wide area and offer great durability. Furthermore, the owner has applied his favorite TechSpec Center Tank PRO6 Protector from his previous bike. On the handlebar, you'll find LighTech Handlebar Weights, subtle yet stylish dress-up parts. Despite being lighter than the stock bar ends, they do not compromise on comfort or ride quality. Both the left and right are fitted with LighTech Foldable Levers. Their quality and natural design have greatly appealed to the owner. The right lever allows for fine adjustments, offering excellent brake control. On the other hand, the clutch lever feels even lighter, possibly due to the R1's inherent lightweight characteristics. LighTech Wheel Axle Sliders are attached, combining easy installation, good texture, and attractive anodized color for both style and protection. The windshield has been replaced with a Puig's Racing Windshield, perfect for those seeking a more austere riding experience. This bike comes highly recommended for such riders.
