We are glad to help! Some riders prefer to work on their own bike. Of those, some know how, and some do not. We try to help everyone that likes to work on their own R1 do so. However, there is nothing wrong with and we actually encourage you to support your local bike shop however you can. Get your parts there or some gear, or cool T's, etc. Glad you were able to get your fix!
but to those of you who come across this with an 09 R1, directions from the manual say:
Remove: side cowlings, lower cowlings, fuel tank, air filter case, radiator, radiator fan.
Disconnect: ignition coil
Remove: spark plugs (first blow away dirt accumulated in the spark plug wells so it doesn't fall into cylinders.
Hope that helps!
Before watching this video. I tried by removing the tank. Now thanks for this great video I can get it done my self instead of paying $90 an hr. at my local bike shop.
Sou Brasileiro do Estado do Piauí e possuo uma Yamaha R1. E lhe parabenizo pelo excelente trabalho. Seus vídeos são os melhores e mais exemplificativos do RUclips. Mesmo não entendo nada do que você fala, eu consigo entender cada passo que você cita através dos seus gestos e da clareza dos seus vídeos. Meu muito obrigado por me auxiliar na manutenção da minha motocicleta. Por favor, continue a nos auxiliar ainda mais. Até mais e algum dia, venha visitar o Brasil.
Glad we could help. Did it go well for you? And that hose trick really helps!
You are welcome for the trick. Glad we could help. Yeah, Todd showed me that trick and I couldn't have done it without that tubing.
Great video! If only I would have found it before I started pulling other things off. Thanks!
Like those gold rearsets! & Thanks for the video bro, I was just thinking about changing the plugs on my '08 R1.. Now I'll probably do it instead of procrastinating more haha
We run NGK. Very nice spark plugs!
if you were to replace the plugs with new ones what gap would you have them set at?? other than that i think you covered everything great video guys!!!!!
Great video. very informative. I have a 07 r1. Is the procedure the same? Some people say to remove the tank. I tried to find 07 r1 spark plug videos but no one has it in detail like you do.
Thank you for all your vid!! God bless your family
Howdy de Texas! Você é muito bem-vindos. Obrigado por assistir nossos vídeos e nós estamos contentes que você é capaz de seguir adiante. Deixe-nos saber se você precisar de uma dica ou ajuda com qualquer coisa e nós faremos o nosso melhor para ajudá-lo. Se alguma vez fazê-lo fora do seu jeito, nós gostaríamos de dar um passeio com você e seus colegas pilotos.
I'm not sure how much will carry over from the Thundercat to the R1 but when I used to do work on my 1999 FZR 600 the procedure was basically the same. You will have different bolts perhaps, but the job itself should be similar. Good luck!
Iridium Spck PLugs = OWN . great vid.
Agreed! The Iridium plugs are killer - me and Todd both have them in our R1's and love them. Thanks for watching. If we can ever share a tip, hit us up on email. Just go to our website R1Videos and get our email from the contact page.
great video! and very helpful! does it matter in which order you put the caps back on?
The book recommends you check your plugs after every other oil change. So you check them at 4K miles (change if needed), change at 8K miles. Repeat. Personally I change mine every 8K miles to 10K miles, but you would benefit by changing them more often than that since they really aren't that expensive. Good plugs = good performance
clearly a bit late, but i was just going through the vids and saw your comment. i have an 09 R1 Service Manual (pdf) if you want me to email it to either of you guys for future questions.
Todd is asking around for tips from all of his previous bike shops he's worked for - - we haven't worked on a 2009 R1 yet so we'll have to see what some of his buddies come back with - - unless someone here reading the comments has some tips!?
Great video I'm about to do my plugs on my 06R1 I got it with low 6k miles on 11 riitgh now is at mid 15k miles and I had never change or even check the plugs(shame on me) and for my luck it sounds good(it dosent sounds like a shot when I let the gas go) still but ii got ngk iridium plugs and with this video I deff feel comfortable enough to do it but I think I will go trough the tank way because I also puting k&n air filter but if anything I do this way you guys show here
I alredy my plugs and air filter I remove the air box and all that and it was almost imposible to change the plugs that way like the manual said I had to do it this waay regarless....thanks you for the little trick
Yes, they are gapped already out of the box. Go with the iridium plugs, we like them a lot so far!
yeah, it's a good idea to dab a little anti seize on the plugs - not too much - just enough to spread around with your fingers on the threads.
Hey great video thanks for the help !
Quick question tho, will this process be the same on a 2007 R1?
great vid!!! thanx..
NIce vid, thanks. Is the process the same for on an 07 ?
Leave the gaps how they come out of the box. Thanks for watching, we are always glad to help further if needed. Just go to our website and get our email address if you need other tips.
did you mention something about applying some sort of grease? anti seize?
If you are not having problems, then no worries. You can just change every 8K. But when you do, just notice the wear, coloration, etc. Are they really going that bad at 8K? Could you have gone another 2K? So just keep that in mind and watch the plugs when you take them out each time. Keep a file on the mileage that you change them. Also, when you pull them, like we said, you just might as well change them. I don't even check mine every 4K because I know they last 8K+ for the most part.
Is it dirty inside the cap? Clean out the cap and see if the roughness goes away. It should snap in place with a little pressure but shouldn't be rough as you describe. If damaged then you might have to replace. Clean first tho
how often/miles do you recommend changing the plugs? cheers
Also it does run . Would it be hurting it by running it that way ?
Thanks! What about Dielectric grease? (sp)
No. Use anti seize or nothing at all on your spark plug threads. Either way is fine - with or without. Anti seize can be picked up at any auto parts store and is cheap.
I would not remove the tank unless you must. The procedure is the same yes. Remove old plugs one at a time (or all at once like we do in the video ONLY if your bike is extremely clean so nothing falls down into your engine like mud or leaves or anything). Then put anti-seize on the new plugs, install, and button it all back up. Let us know if you have any more questions.
Does brand or price of spark plugs make any difference?
It would require more steps and more work and I'm not sure it would really be worth it since the frame is still in your way. But try it and let us know if it makes a big difference.
I just replaced my spark plugs with the ngk style for my Fzr and I have no compliant , paid a few dollars for them compared getting Bosch that were 10 bucks more...
I was taking off on the freeway the other day and notice it sounded like a dirt bike after . Im guessing it is running on 3 cylinders. Do you think by changing out my spark plugs it would get it up running again ? I have a 98 cbr6oo
change the plugs and see what happens, especially if you haven't changed them in a while
process is the same, but the 07 R1 is a bit different - this video covers the 2004, 2005, and 2006 Yamaha R1
Desculpe. Um passeio de moto é o que eu quis dizer. Venha visitar o "Circuito das Américas" pista em Austin, Texas para ver corridas de MotoGP em 2014.
actually i have a quick question.. i have this Yamaha R1 is not starting.. after i checked the coils/sparck i noticed they jump not so quick.. like "tac..tac..tac"... is that normal on this bikes? cause most of old old bikes (carburetor oones) the sparck jumps VERy quickly like tactactactac! very fast... do you have ANY idea about this? Thanks a lot
Would this be the same process changing a spark plug on my 2001 YZF 600r Thundercat? I cant find any videos online on how to do this and the garage are going to charge me stupid money for them to do it. Thanks in advance.
Do they come pre gapped ?
Doesn't matter in which order you put the caps back on, but does matter which caps you put on which plugs. They are cut to size so it should be easy to know which caps reaches and goes on which plug. Does this help? If not, head over to our site and get our email. We'll be able to help you better through email. Good luck!
Question I change my spark plug on my 07 r6. One of my spark plug not contact to the spark and my IDE up and down and sound like rough. What's should I do?
Thank u so much
You bet. we have a list of requests for videos to shoot. Although it's really long and we are pressed for time, if you can think of a how to video that you would like us to shoot for you let us know and we'll get it on the list. I wish we could do R1 Videos full time as a job so we could crank out more content for yall!
Oh man, trying to figure out the new RUclips comments maze... sorry for delayed responses, this is trickier than working on the R1
Thanks for watching and for commenting. Our videos take a while because we take a lot of time make sure they are high quality. We will always put out more videos. Our fans and viewers continue to send in requests and we keep track of them all but can't shoot these videos fast enough because we both work day jobs. So subscribe and check out our website because more are on the way!
cool after my next oil change then
Brand matters, yes. Price, no. A company that puts top quality materials together, tests their products, & doesn't take shortcuts (doesn't exist - just kidding) will have a better product. But you have to look at the product itself. Don't let the price trick you into thinking that the product is better than the quality product just because the price is higher. Usually you get what you pay for, but sometimes, quality parts are cheaper. Sorry, this is Robert, and I'm a marketer at my day job.
Thanks for watching! Let us know if we can help. Sorry for the delay here.
Ive got an 09 R1 and its a nightmare to get at the plugs. Even with the radiator off and the air box off i still cant even see them let alone get them out!!!!
Anyone know why I can't reply to questions for "all comments" anymore? Some I can, some I can't reply back to.
Those are gold CRG Roll-A-Click levers. You can see them on my (this is Robert) silver '04 R1 also at our Facebook page (facebook. com/R1Videos). Love em, look great on both bikes. Let us know if you need a tip or help with changing your plugs.
the process is the same, the bike is a bit different though
Email me this question: Robert at R1videos . com
if you go that route you'll hate your life!!!
great video! and very helpful! does it matter in which order you put the caps back on?
