I’m restoring a 1999 Yamaha R6 and these videos are music for my ears. Thanks for recording them 👏🏻
Just bought a R6 2002 with 12 kmh on the clock so your tutorial are gold as it has been a long time since I had a bike 👍
Who see this wonderfull video 2024? 🎉
Because of this video I was able to get this project done and your other video on how to clean it. AWESOME JOB BRO!! You saved me about $800-$900 on a mechanic because that’s how much they were charging to do this job. GREAT VIDEO!!
Great video broh. Liked and subscribed. Just got an r6 and your video is the best way to keep the passionate riders learning more about their bikes. No nonsense, quick extra info as you work, and keeps a sharp mind to the watcher. 🤙🏾🤙🏾 from the pacific islander
You have good patience thanks good video
I just dumpster dived a 2001 r6 that’s real nice
An area tow service actually sold it to me for $500 but he put about 10 cycles into the dumpster to get to it
A few nice cycles dumped yah I’ve got to clean my carbs
So I will watch your other video
Peace breaux
Hey dude, thanks a million for this video. Seriously. I wouldn't feel comfortable tackling this project with out it.
@Marquerite Botts lol virgins
Great video!!! I was having a really hard time seeing and getting at the cap screws around the boots. I dabbed the head of the screws with a white paint marker. It made it much easier to see.
Fantastic video! Trying to remember all those tubes, lines, and screws is very intimidating prior to beginning. AND you even included the service manual in the description! Dude... I'll be watching your video multiple times in a few months when I clean mine. Thank you again
Thank you for taking the time to share this information. I take so much knowledge from the internet, but never add to it. Unless you count Amazon reviews ;) haha.
Thanks a lot, a buy R6 and have big problem (someone before me connect vacum pipes wrong. Huge beer for You
Thanks for this video! Much easier than following the factory service manual
I bought the same year's yzf-r6. It was very helpful when I maintained it. Thank you very much😭
Hello Willow thank you so much bro!!!🎉
The 4 lower clamp bolts are harder to take off than every single step combined
Dude... that step is practically missing.
Billy Roberts lol probably cause there was a lot of choice words said
Putting back on was such a bitch I broke air hose nipple fml
@@multiblade04 wish I could tell ya I’ll let ya know if I figure it out doe
Just got a 2001 r1. Wanting to learn on carbs but oof
Mate. You have just saved me 500 Great British Pounds. Cheers me dear.
This is going to help me so much, just got one to start learning. Man I wish this was a 2000. Its what I have and I'd feel so much more confident. Still gonna go at it though, maybe I do a follow up to this but with a 2000 model lol.
My red R6 in my other videos is a 2000, its the same carburetors as the 2001. Please check out my other videos on my 2000 R6 if you need help with any other repairs. I hope this is helpful. Good luck! Thanks for watching!
Top video. Helped me loads
Nice video. Two things I would suggest that helps with the reinstall. Just take off the nut for the throttle cable bracket(which is also part of the bolt that holds the carbs together), that way you don't have to screw around with the cables afterward. on the 99 I found turning the three bottom clamps around 180 and flipping them so all four 3mm allen bolts are facing the back is easier to access them, especially if you have a longer ridgid allen key. It doesn't have the heating/coolant hoses in the way like the 2000 and up does.
Thank you so much for this video. With the help of your video and the user manual, I was able to rebuild my 1999 Yamaha R6 carb. My R6 now feels brand new.
That great Alberto! I so glad to hear that my videos helped you rebuild your carburetors and got your R6 running like new again! Thank you for Watching and letting me know that the videos helped you!

I feel happy you did this useful guide. Thx.
GREAT vid Willow! Thank you so much! I've been putting this off all winter but now that we have a 2 day blizzard headed our way, I know what I"m doing tonight! Thanks:)
Nice job man, I had to use your video to guide me through the process!
Thank you from poland
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Fucking amazing. I think I’m gonna have to do this to my FZ6R
Brilliant Bro, Thank you..... Clutch Replacement next...... :-)
Thanks Siboniso! Doing a clutch replacement video on the R6 is definitely on my list. I will try to get that video done for you. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I'm going to post the Yamaha R6 Clutch replacement video on 01/08/2020 so stay tuned.
Hey man I just watched your video on how to take off the carburetors on your 2001 yzf r6..awsome video I have the same bike I'm putting together in my living room..its 2000 yfz r6 really wish you could make a video to tell me where all my hoses go from the motor to the air filter and to the radiator..please make that video bud I'd really appreciate your help man...
@@davidcannon5673 sorry I missed your comment. Unfortunately I'm out of town right now due to the CORONAVIRUS and I don't have my R6 with me. I will probably head back home in a month or 2. I posted a link to the Service Manual that I use in the description of this video. There is a lot of good information in there, including coolant lines, breather hoses and electrical routing. I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you still need me to film a video for you in a couple months. I'm happy to help. Thanks for watching!
Great video but I would deffinately recommend loosening all the clamp bolts first... 2 sets of intake boots later, i learned its worth the extra pain to get too them. Specially with that little nifty Allen driver
I think you need a longer extension on your wratchet?
I thank you really I wanted to see you take the grip end of it apart
Mine is frozen up and don’t want to break shit removing it all
Subscribed. Thanks bro
Should be the same for an 02 right?
Awesome motorcycle! How long did the Carb rebuild take?
I had about 2:20 of footage before i started editing but that was with the removal & install on the motorcycle. the carburetors alone took me maybe 45 minutes to 1 hour. Thanks for watching.
@@WillowsWorldofDIY Bro its the most detailed, step by step video I ever watched and thank u for that and the voice instructions too and wish you could do a Clutch Replacement one
Thanks Siboniso! Doing a clutch replacement video on the R6 is definitely on my list. I will try to get that video done for you. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Did you synce them
Good job recordibg the back of your head for reinstalling it, big help
i took them off and put them back on just how this video shows and now my nike won’t run. didn’t do anything different then you. maybe my throttle cables? what’s the stock ones set to like the 2 screws
Hi Willow, could you please show me where to find flushlights relay on Yamaha r6 rj03 and how to change him. Thanks
The flasher relay is located under the driver's seat on the right hand side near the right hand seat mounting bolt. the relay has an electrical connection and you will need to unplug it and plug in the new relay. It's really easy to replace the flasher relay and it only takes about 5 minutes. If you need more help please email me and I can send you an electrical schematic showing you exactly where it's located. My email address is in the about section on my Channel home page. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Did you say over 6 years... Wow. Where are you located?
do you have a video of synchronising the carb after re-installing
I do! ruclips.net/video/YKY4qkjM9uo/видео.html I hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY brill thanks , I’ve asked another question regarding my bike on another vid , bout at the end my tether with my bike :(
Hey man i know its a long shot on you responding. Are the two vent lines on the fuel tank important to have on?
@@JoseCruz-et4mt The motorcycle will run fine without them but, the risk of it catching on fire with fuel dripping on top of the motor isn’t worth it for me. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY thank you, i just switched the fuel filter on my motorcycle and for some reason still getting throttle delay. Ordered a new air filter cause mine was pretty bad and hoping this and putting the vent lines on will fix the issue!
Are the clamp bolts that hold the carb on tamper proof? I can't seem to get my allen key to go in and I don't have depth perception rip
No, they are normal Allen bolts but you have to have the Allen wrench in the right spot and at the right angle. This step is going to be difficult without depth perception. I try to keep the back end of the Allen wrench against the plastic heat shield while i'm trying to line up the other end of the Allen wrench with the clamp bolt. When I have it lined up I slowly lift the back end of the Allen off the heat shielding till it lines up and inserts into the bolt. I hope this method helps. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY thanks man!! I got it figured out earlier after a lot of struggling, your video has helped a lot thank you!!
Do the vent lines on the fuel tank have anything plugged in on the other open end or is it just left open?
The fuel tank vent and drain line are both open on the other end. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY thank you man
Hi! Sorry for my bothering, i succesfully clean the carburettor, but i let the gas tank on the floor upside down, and somehow the gasoline/benzin flowed out somehow, and stand in the mid of the tank, maybe because of the vacuum?
I wouldn't store the fuel tank upside down with fuel in it. The fill cap doesn't completely seal because it needs to vent to allow air to get in as the fuel is getting used and to keep pressure from building up inside the tank.
@@WillowsWorldofDIY thank you !:D
about to buy an 2002 with very low miles but it has sat for more that 6 years. Needs carb overhaul and new tires at first glance. I will change, oil, plugs, coolant, fuel filter and fuel pump if necessary. Any other things I should look for? I live in NY.
I would also check out the brakes and make sure that all the caliper pistons are moving and not stuck. new brake fluid, new air filter, and maybe new fork oil in addition to the oil change, plugs, coolant, fuel filter and fuel pump if necessary. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY awesome will do. I will be in touch. Just spending time watching your videos to get ready. I am in NY, the bike is 1k with very low miles, but she looks good.
@@WillowsWorldofDIY A mechanic checked the bike. He said the brakes were good, but when I pick it up, I'll check it and will also change the fluid.
I find its hard to get the carbs back on the motor. Im tryin it on my r1 ..
Do you have a link to the flexible allen driver that you used to loosen the boot clamps?
I don't have a link to the exact one that I use, but here is a similar flex shaft driver amzn.to/3zScCza it will need inter changeable hex bits like these amzn.to/3tfu3Ha. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Any chance your in california so I can pay you todo it 😅
I was able to follow the video perfectly, but for the life of me i cannot find the other lower clamp bolts other then the ones you've shown
Other lower clamp bolts? I tried to show all 4 lower clamp bolts with the Allen wrench in each one in this video @9.30-11.24. If you can email me some pictures or video I will try to help and I can send you pictures or video showing you on my R6. You can find my email address in the about section on the main page of my channel.
Where do the vent tubes connect on the opposed end?
Vent tubes on the fuel tank?
Yes
The fuel tank vent and drain tubes only connect to the fuel tank. the other end of the tubes are routed behind the coolant over flow tank and hang down below the motor. I have a service manual link in the description of this video that will show you. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Help! I put the carb on and forgot the choke
Can someone help me and send a video where all the hoses connect? I’m really confused
Do you have to sync the carbs still if you clean it this way?
I recommend synchronizing the carburetors after cleaning them. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Can I get the clutch plate for one like this
There are links for new clutch plates in the description of this video. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
Or you can give me your number
I do not know how your even getting an alen key in there for the clamps holding the carbs down i can only just see cylinder ones and the easy one is cylinder 4 but cylinder 2 and 3 I can't even see them or get anywhere near them
Cylinder 3 is the hardest to get to and see but if you flip up the plastic breather fitting where the breather tube connects between carb 3 and carb 4 you should be able to see the hold down clamp bolt. They both are a tight fit and you kinda have to thread the needle to get your Allen wrench in the right spot. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY it's OK now I mastered it haha cylinder 3 was the hardest and after all that stressing i must say it was worth learning how to do it
@@r6liam657 That's great! Once you know the right spots it's not to hard, but when its your first time it can be difficult 😂. I'm glad that my videos were able to help you 👍🏻 Thanks again for watching!
Hey bro. those #3 hex screws are hard to get to and tough to unscrew. The bike has been sitting for a long time. Any thoughts on loosening them?
I put the #3 Allen wrench in the bolts and use a 10mm closed box wrench on the L part of the Allen wrench, using the 10mm wrench as a lever to break the bolts loose. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@WillowsWorldofDIY thank you bro. Wished you lived closer... Really appreciate your advice.
Do you use Synthetic? Any particular brand of oil?
Yes I run synthetic, Motul 300V is the best in my opinion. Here is a link to the exact oil I use amzn.to/3xbjA1a
@@WillowsWorldofDIY I bought Mobile synthetic but may take it back to Autozone and get the Motul. Again big thanks for your help and advice. Once I am done, would love to meet up and compare bikes.
Would it have killed you to show the location of the other 3 bolts holding down the carbs? I'm having a hell of a time figuring this out.
No, I just wanted to show how I remove them. I do show all 4 lower clamp bolt with my Allen wrench in each one of them @9.30-11.24 during the reassembly. Please watch the entire video. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
If you send me an email I can send you a short video clip showing exactly where the 4 carburetor lower clamp bolts are located. My email address is in the about section on my channels main page.
Thanks man! I watched from the 9:30 mark and found them! Thanks again bud!
@@davidmoran4675 That is the idle adjustment cable. find the idle adjustment knob on the right side of your Motorcycle and pull the knob and cable straight up and it will pop out of its holder bracket.
I show this step @5.12 in this video
Which tube you detach at minute 3:23
Carburetor Vacuum lines
@@WillowsWorldofDIY Thank you
Please remember that you need a really strong light in or on the area people want to see to get a good video. The vid is too dark to show the things you are describing.
I thought the 01 R6 was fuel injected???????
99-02 are carbureted, 03 and up are fuel injected. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for watching!
It's almost impossible to tighten the carb clamps what a terrible design
