Transcripts
finally back out on the Yamaha y zfr7 I
know it has not gotten a lot love lately
as the zx4rr is kind of overshadowing
right now for the most part the main
reason for that is I'm still in my
honeymoon period with the zx4rr but I'll
tell you I'm really happy to be back on
this thing again and if you watch the
last video we did the installation and
I'll link that up here for you guys uh
the R6 throttle tube on the R7 here as
well as these awesome Amino grips and I
have to say so far I absolutely love
these grips they are amazing that feel
and how they just want to stay kind of
tacky it's almost like the
maybe like a football glove where it
like totally grabs the hell out of the
football obviously not quite that sticky
but pretty damn close definitely has
that grip feel there and I like it I
like it a lot so if you remember also
with the zx4r we did a quick speed test
from zero to 120 if I can get rid of
some of this traffic down here in Mexico
we're gonna see which bike is faster zx4
RR restricted with the slip-on versus a
non-restricted tune for the Yamaha R7
with a full yoshimere exhaust DNA filter
and cap let's do it
foreign
yeah she definitely seems faster
it's gonna be really really interesting
when we go ahead and put that
unrestricted tune because I've already
bought it it's in route we're gonna put
it on the zx4rr and we're gonna see how
she screams at that top end now because
we get quite a bit of extra power I
don't know about you guys but I really
sound of the R7 and I'll be the first
guy to tell you I do not enjoy the sound
of a 180 crank parallel twin this 270
crank really gives you such a unique
sound and growl and my opinion opinion
so obviously the grips they're fantastic
I'm really liking them on the motorcycle
it takes little to no pressure with my
hands to you know keep these things you
know it's not even snapping forward on
me I'm just barely touching it so I
think that's really rad especially when
you're talking like long distance rides
when you know you know if you got to
squeeze a little too tight or you're
constantly moving your fingers around to
try and a hold of that throttle while
you're on long distance rides that
definitely gets really old really fast
and I'll tell you this thing is like it
takes nothing to grip this it just
sticks to my glove so I like it a lot so
that's that the next mod that we did in
that video was we put the popolisia
we put the R6 throttle tube on the R7
here which if you guys have done any
research that is a very common thing to
do to many motorcycles in fact I did
that too my ninja 400 and that made a oh
you poor bastard
no
motor basically are down
they got him but the throttle tube is a
common thing to do to motorcycles I put
it on my ninja 400 I absolutely loved it
it was a huge difference getting that
throttle to turn all the way on the
ninja 400 like you got to reposition
your hand and then finish it off and
same with the R7 you read about the bike
apparently on the throttle side the
other side of the throttle cable
there's actually a method in which it is
supposed to shorten the throw a little
bit and I would definitely agree because
I when I first bought this bike I
thought I don't really need it but there
still was the turn and then the slight
adjustment of fingers to smack that wide
open throttle so yes we heavily improve
with this R6 throttle too because I
don't need to do any more than that to
get the wide open throttle so to me
that's a really big deal now there of
course are downsides to that and the
downside to that on this motorcycle
would be we have a whole grip ton of
torque down low so this is already a
wheelie monster so by making it even
easier to use more power with less
throttle makes this a little bit Twitchy
so like just like the slightest movement
while you're in first gear you know
coming out of a parking lot or something
like that there's it's a little Twitchy
it's a little more Twitchy than it was
so keep that in mind if you want to do
this mod you're going to have a little
bit more Twitchy of a throttle
than you would without it so it's been
so long I'm gonna go play around on some
back roads for a little bit hopefully I
don't find popo like that for R1 did
earlier but the upgrades the grip the
throttle tube I'm all in I like it uh I
think you should do it of course I'll
put the links down below if you want to
buy them for specific ones because it is
annoying trying to find the R6 throttle
tube at least knowing which one so I
will put that down in the description
below for you as well as these Domino
grips holy crap talk about
a fantastic grip
it is a absolutely fantastic grip I love
them and the best part they're not even
expensive they're freaking 24.99 are you
kidding me from RevZilla once again I'll
put the link down below thanks for
watching guys if you're interested in
just some regular old writing I'll give
you a little bit of that right now
oh
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
yeah so much more control
with that grip it's very interesting
how that can make so much of a
difference
foreign
