    Yamaha R1 best mod shop in NE

    Hello friends!
    I'm new to the site and have a few "Q's".

    I live in Newport,RI and i have a 2001 Yamaha R1.

    I have Dymag C/F Magnesium wheels that need new tires. These wheels are not on the bike yet, so i need a shop with a "NoMar machine" with a dude that knows what his doing.

    Also i need a motorcycle shop that his "KING" on a carb bike motor

    I have been advised by a good friend that "Valley Motorsports" is a good spot. But is a hell of a drive for me. But i dont really mind if they are the shizzet

    Also, I did PM "Tricky Mike" for the C/F wheels tire change

    Full throttle in Fairhaven mass does a lot of carb work. It's probably about 40 minutes from Newport.

    Adrenaline cycle. Swansea, ma. Check them out. The new ship is huge and they have an awesome service department.

    And there is no reason that you need to use a manual changer for CF rims. I have changed many tires on CF rims with zero damage at all.

    I've had great luck with Razee's in North Kingstown, RI for tire changing and carb work back when I had my 1998 R1. I think they just became a gold star dealer from Yamaha because of their good reviews and service. 401-884-6632 or 401-295-8837

    I have been there before for some Gilles Variobar prices. Aren't they afew miles up a storage unit? I didn't like what i saw. I used Windmills in Dartmouth for a stock rear tire replacement and Gilles lifters and a State sticker years back. OK i guess!

    I did called them up. Spoke with "Peter". He said that they do have a "NoMar" machine, and they do install C/F wheels for $30. Will check them out...

    Razees built 3 very trick R6 trackbikes last year. Some good performance oriented techs there. One raced AMA Pro road racing nationals a few years back and the service manager was also an expert AAMRR road racer and they've done alot of tuning so carb work is second nature.

    Hi Justin,
    I passed by your shop yesterday "Saturday" and yes the new location is a big improvement over the old one. I really liked the Duc 848 and the Aprillia on your window
    Will check you out for some mods.

    WoW! Really...!! I really got to check them out now!
    I spoke with "Peter" on service department, and he really sounded professional when i asked about the C/F wheels tires install. I will go there next Saturday
