Video tutorial

To replace the air filter on a Yamaha R1, first loosen the screws securing the seat so that it can be completely removed from its housing. Once the seat is removed, you will have access to the screws that secure the fuel tank from underneath: these screws must be loosened.

After loosening these screws, also loosen the screws that secure the tank laterally by lifting it and disconnecting the connectors underneath. Under the fuel tank, you will find the filter box, which can be opened by unscrewing the screws: this will allow you to remove the old air filter and replace it with a new one.
