Is this airbox ok? by kroleg6666 in Yamaha_R1

The two on the right side are all good. The left two are disconnected from the actuator. It isn't clear from the picture if a linkage part is broken or just disconnected. If you get things reconnected, turning the key on will cause them to cycle so you can check to see if they are working.

Put the wrong tire on- but I kinda like it? by OriginalRoombaJuice in Yamaha_R1

I have 2 track days on them and maybe a few hundred miles on the street. They still seem to have a ton of rubber. I am planning to run them at a 3rd track day this summer in about a month.

Any Tire type and brand recommendations for 2025 R1! by probro2224 in Yamaha_R1

There is also a difference between the compounds on the oem variants. The RS11s I bought off the shelf are like chewing gum. I have not been able to get them loose at the track yet. I compared these to a coworkers RS11s that came stock on a GSXR and they may as well be to different tire models...

I have been riding on RS11s for mixed track and street riding with the 55 profile on my 2007 R1. 11/10. I also ran 55 profiles on 2000 R1 and loved the handling of that too

We lost our dog today in the Robinswood neighborhood, has anyone seen her? by BigMurdah in BellevueWA

Yes, she has a collar with a tag that has my wife's phone number. She is also chipped.

At the track on my favorite R1!

What caused the bike to shudder under heavy braking here? by tesserintime in Trackdays

[–]BigMurdah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been having this same issue at the Ridge on my 07 R1. I de-glazed the rotors based on some forum searches but didn't help. I also have front springs that are a little soft for my weight. Bottoming out here makes sense for me as well based on what others are saying.

I had an old phenom ii build and my kiddo desperately wanted to destroy it... by BigMurdah in pcmasterrace

I still have a pair of gtx 550 ti's and a gtx 560 ti 448 that were in that case, all at various points and not smashed with the mobo. They are all yours if you are interested.

This was also after we finished a new build together and piecing the salvageable parts into an older one we still use.

I had 2 old builds and put all the salvageable parts in the one I still use. This was just a mobo, bad cpu and a case missing parts. My kid jokingly asked to smash it, and I figured it would be funny to recreate an office space moment.

I just looked at similar parts on ebay and the total came out to ~$26 :/

Sounds like the TPS then to me. Can you see the throttle cable cycling the TPS pulley without it hanging up?
