Hello guys, I've just happen to encounter this weird behavior on my 2018 r1. The braking power indicator on the dash starts at max value while no brake are applied. I can move the bike freely, I cannot feel any braking from the front/rear wheel. I tried to ride it around the block to test if...

Going thru my new to me '05 R1 that was sold with faulty front brakes so going thru those now. It has Brembo masters front & back (see pics). Guessing these are not oem due to the purplish tint on both and just on general Yamaha understanding. Plus, the brake lever shape (where it hits the...

So I recently bled the front and rear brakes, including the bleed valve on the front master cylinder. There got a full system of fresh fluid, no bubbles. Now when I hit the rear brakes, it will sometimes depress fully without doing anything. Sometimes it'll brake for a few seconds and then...

$2,200 + shipping. These came off of a 2004 R1 with 330x5 and barely used. Part: X99C460 and X99C461. They accept the pads in Z04 compound 107A48604 Brembo says: make sure you know the mount system for your bike (ie. radial vs. conventional) and be aware that you may need spacers to get the...

I just purchased my first R1. It's a 2018 (not the M). It was advertised as having a rear reservoir delete kit, which I have never seen or heard of. I didn't test drive it because I didn't want to create a liability issue and the guy drove it to the meet up. He told me that the rear brakes had...

In the middle of a rebuild of my front end and my dumbass forgot to check the orientation of my brake lines. Could really use some pictures from someone who also has Russell brake lines installed. I've flipped them and tried them all sorts of different ways with no luck so now I turn to you...

Hi All- I have a 2020 R1 that is basically bone stock. I’ve had it for almost 6 months/ put 6k miles on it and four track days( two more coming this month). On the street, I have never had any issues with the brakes and feel they work fine. On the track, however, that’s a different story. I am...

Hi, Since the 15+ R1 has a linked braking system where the front and rear brakes are applied when pulling the brake lever, it seems to me that in order maintain balance in the brake bias, the rear pads should be upgraded along with the front pads, especially if one were to switch to the Brembo...

Forgive me if this topic has been already well flogged - I couldn't find a 'search' feature that would let me search a specific forum. Anyhow, I'm just curious as to how the brake calipers on the latest R1 are performing for everyone. Are they something that people are upgrading a lot? How are...
