Full Carbon 2015 R1

I have been looking for months now for a company that provides carbon parts for the R1 but I could not find one. I only want to buy the bike if it looked like this R6 - of course with headlights etc. plus a full carbon tank.



Does anyone have a tip for me which company produces carbon parts for the 2015 R1? (And no, I do not want the R1M, I want it completely carbon)

I'm sure all the players will have what you need in the near future, just gotta give it some time. The bike just got released FFS.:lol
80% of the 2015 R1s haven't even been delivered. You have a long wait ahead of you. :shake
just curious? what pattern carbon are you looing for..?? gloss or dry? 1x1? 2x2?
for example, Ducati CF is totally different then Porsche's CF. So much so that It's hard to find aftermarket companies for my Hypermotard because I think mixing carbon styles looks terrible
Thats a pity. I had hoped that Yamaha would have given the producers the chance to get the parts before the release.

I had the pleasure to sit in a Zonda once:


This is the way the carbon should look like but I was told that for the smaller motorcycle parts these large patterns cannot be achieved. I would need to see it in person anyway before I order.

Be patient! Just got an e-mail from Full Six and they are coming out with a full line for the R1 over the next year!
I think carbon fiber fairings are over-rated. The oem fairings are already super light, I could take a shit, and drop more weight than carbon fiber would.

Some of us just have a preference for carbon fiber pieces. Has nothing to do with weight savings for me. I think the 15 R1would look stunning with some more carbon fiber touches. :)
