Yamaha is aware of the lag. This is an old issue. Remember, Yamaha introduced their 07's first. Anyways, the bike is sweet and once the ECU is switched out the bike is like a Ferrari. Know and keep up with motorcycles and info before you comment.

[joshuacaleb1981]

all of these comments were before Yamaha quietly released notice of fixing the lag (only to create a new one). Please "know your own info before posting"

would hae been funny if it worked for some reason and went crazy on them....lol

My aunt has a $70,000 corvet. I drove it and noticed that when I push the gas pedal all the way down from a stand still the car responds very slowly. She had the feature installed because of stop and go traffic in the city.

My 2007 R1 does the same thing. It has a lot of power but in 2nd gear it does lag a little bit...but I was thinking it was normal because the R1 has a lot of power and yamaha doesn't want noobs launching themselves off the bike..?

dude u are making us fool by leaving the throttle and again trying to keep in the same rpm u r distroying the name of yamaha r1 shit i understoud ur trikk

[StreetSurfinn]

i have seen this before on several occasions, the R1 realized the rider was a completely usless squid and the bike started to destroy it self in order to protect itself from a more painful death

[stuwek]

i co to mialo znaczyc ?? ze zacina sie hamulec w r1 ?

[SmokingCannon]

It is an unintended programming glitch in the fly-by-wire YCC-T system to keep riders from launching down the road since the bike has serious horsepower and torque.

que mala suerte amigo. la verdad yo no tuve ese problema gracias a Dios. pero ahora tu moto ya esta bien?

[captainchorro]

bull shit my r1 dont do that

[Jack5371]

thats what i was thinking

[mrlowery27]

The problem is due to early model ecu's. I first heard about it in a magazine and then tried it out for myself, sure enough I had the problem. I went to the dealer the next day and they did an ECU replacement under warranty, $0.00 out of pocket. No more problems, easy fix. If your dealer is the problem, just be more aggressive about it or go somewhere else that wants to take care of their customers!!!
