Hello all.

 

I am torn between the R1'08 and R1' 12, just wanna get some comments/feedback before I set my mind on the bike...

 

1) I've read up that Yamaha R1s are problematic bikes; Are the they referring to the clutch issues or are there others?

 

2) Is paying more money worth it for the TCS (2012 onwards model) for daily riding and a little bit of track? Any maintenance for the TCS required at intervals?

 

3) Does the rear seat get very hot due to the under-seat exhaust?

 

4) Does modifying the Y-Pipe (Mid pipe) to Akra / Termignoni helps with the heat seat issue or are there better solutions?

 

Thank you so much! :)

1. r1'08 is famous with stall issue while r1'12 haven't heard any, only loud noise of cam tensioner. overall, nothing really wrong with both. just if u buy 08, it's older hence more maintenance required.

 

2. TCS is electronic setting, so no major maintenance required. whether it's worth d money or not, it depends u. for me, it's good to have but not compulsory.

 

3. no, the heat is mainly from the front engine.

 

4. change y-pipe will help a little but not much. plus it's illegal. i dun think there's any better solutions.
