    On the display it keeps track of how much gas it’s used. If you use the scroller wheel on the right handle bar you can scroll though temp, gas and odo readings. You can reset it after every fill up and the low fuel light comes on with one gallon left. Also, the headers are titanium and that’s the reason why most exhaust manufacturers don’t care to make headers for it. - 2018 R1 owner.

      Personally I think they have really messed up the fuelling in D Mode, I prefer C In all conditions to D Because it is more predictable and is smoother.
      If I ever flash mine I will be getting D Completely redone, it is useless as it is.
      But now that I am used to it, B Mode is my default all the time.

      i tried all the modes on my 2020 r1. I simply ride in A mode all the time. Ive yet to ride it in the rain but C mode would be ok for that. Ive owned a 2008 r1 before with no riding modes like the newer ones so im used to it. I started riding in C and within a mile i changed it to B at the first red light. Then for my 2nd ride i realized A is not really unrideably powerful. Its just the normal engine mode..not anymore powerful than any other year or liter bike. Its simply a machine and it gives what you tell it to do.

      I only ride in A mode. I'm an extremely aggressive rider. I remember when I purchased my 2018 after having my 2014 stolen. Driving from the dealer I didn't feel the power and didn't understand the hype of the bike. That all changed as soon as I hit the expressway. I love the aesthetics of the 2014 but I will NEVER go back after having this bike. I'll purchase the 2021 as a second bike and perhaps use one of them for track

      karl kukk my first bike was a 30 year old Suzuki GS1100EZ. KING OF THE SUPERBIKES. Absolutely terrible first bike. I was also 30 when I picked it up. It had a fuel gauge, AND self canceling turn signals. The fuel gauge was WILDLY inaccurate. Sport bike tanks have weird contours that don’t easily resolve into a float level system that accurately indicates remaining fuel. The best, and most common way of estimating range, is to keep accurate records of your fill ups. Regardless of the level indicated in the gauge, or lack there of, your personal riding habits are going to dictate your fill ups.

    There is actually like 1 bolt and 2 screws to remove what you called the gas tank or whatever. But that just removes the airbox cover which is also held down by 2 tabs of 3M or Scotch fasteners. And to remove the rank you remove 2 more bolts on the side and then the pivot bolt for the actual tank.

  • @Lilgetoboi

    That single bolt isn’t holding the gas tank. It’s only holding down the front cover to the gas tank which is also attached with Velcro to the gas tank. The tank is held down by 2 bolts (one on each side of the bike). I own a 2016 R1 and removed the cover to get it painted.

It does that classic too low of a speed for the gear stutter. I too blame it on the magnetic throttle as opposed to a cable. Its strange and requires a total relearning of throttle control.

    Yamaha does tend to recycle the parts bin. My 2009 Yamaha FZ6R has the same turn signals that they're using today. That's one of the reasons why I went with the Kawasaki Z900 over the Yamaha MT-09. I realized that soon after buying the MT-09 I'd end up having to spend around $2000 just to get it the way I wanted compared to the Z900 where I'd only change a few things. I may even keep the stock exhaust.

    I have an 05 r1 and it is substantially bigger than the more modern models. I honestly prefer the 04-06 models though. Just pure raw power. No stupid tech to mess you up. You don't rely on modes for your power. You become one with the bike. What you input, is what it outputs. Nothing like it. I totally understand the need for certain tech at the track, but i don't race mine in any shape way or form. I also feel like the tech they put in there is geared for allowing a newer rider to get into something like this, without having the necessary skills, as the low power modes aid in safety in the case of a mistake. I've seen so many new riders with the newer R1s and other liter bikes that end up wrecking because they accidentally switched modes and looped themselves into infinity. I have nothing but mad respect for the power this bike offers, just personally prefer the older model look and raw feel.

    My old honda (1980 Cb400t with a Nighthawk 450 engine) has zero bolts on the front of tank. Literally none. It just has some slots that fit into rubber bushings on the frame. Also it doesn't have a gas gauge lol

    It has 3 bolts holding on the gas tank,2 on each side mid way under the little side panels

    My 1980 CX500 must be going for ultra weight saving. Doesn't have a bolt on the front of the take at all.

    Did not have a gas gauge. You just need to figure out how far you can go before you need gas.

    That bolt only holds on the tank cover there are two more hidden bolts under the side panels.

    Believe it or not the cheapo calipers cost 2x as much as the Brembo units on the GSXR when you look on an OEM site like partzilla .

    It baffles my brain why the R1 doesn't have a fuel gage or cruise control like the MT-10 has because majority of the customers that buy an R1 are people that will ride them on the street so what gives Yamaha? It's not hard to code one into the computer right? I mean the MT-10 has the same engine and computer software just slightly different so it wouldn't be hard to integrate the two systems into 1 awesome system that the MT-10 can also have.

    they put low spec parts so they can sell you the R1M or nickel and dime you in the parts catalog. But that brake caliper, oooof.

    I have had my RN49 since release and STILL am annoyed about it not having a fuel gauge.
    Yes, it has the fuel consumed meter but for that i have to keep track of how much is in it all the time, even if i havent ridden it in a few days.

    It's the same for my zx10r and most liter bikes. I can see on my digital dash that there is an option for it but it was only implemented in Japan and Europe to have it actually on

  • @mattm7798
    @mattm7798 4 года назад

    The 17-19 CBR 1000RR doesnt have a "gas guage" either. It has a low fuel indicator(which also then tells how much gas is left" and a current trip fuel consumption...pretty much everything but a guage that says "you have this much fuel left"...not sure why.

    Yo ! First of all; thank you for your content. I really enjoy it, cause I'm a bike noob (2 years riding) and it made some stuff clear for me ! Thumbs up!
    How about making a video about riding in the U.S. for non U.S. residents? I'm asking, because when I visit the States next time, I will rent a motorcycle for sure and I was wondering, if you could do some content on thing you should be aware of as an European (in my case Austrian) riding in the U.S.
    Thanks a lot !

    A gas gauge is unnecessary since it usually does not work well. Also this is a Supersport not a tourer. An rsv4 also does not have a gas gauge

  • @ChaseN194

    You're gonna want a full system. Nothing will beat an akra Evo full system on this bike.

  • @VLDuckyy

    There should be two more bolts on the side. My 02 Ducati Monster only has a quick release clip holding the tank in place.

    Not sue if serious but, rsv4 you can adjust all the modes as well, and no fuel gage just like the r6 I’ve owned as well.

  • @hudsonja

    Yamaha is smart enough to not waste money on a lever that over half of riders will swap out for shorter ones in the first month anyway. Why waste R&D on something aftermarket companies will ultimately replace almost immediately?

  • @RatKingMoto
    @RatKingMoto 4 года назад

    Funny thing. I've never owned a bike with a gas gauge :P Old bikes usually didn't have them. My Honda cb400t and my Buell Blast both don't. Admittedly my Honda is 40 years old, and my Buell is hella cheap.

  • @Jagknorr
    @Jagknorr 4 года назад

    If im being 100% honest my cbr500r has a gas gauge but i still do the trip meter tallying. Mostly because that sucker can get over 300miles to a tank but i just fill r up around 200 or so, just cause. Its amazing doing a 200mile ride and never needing to stop for gas though.
