DescriptionThe whole story▼
Of everything on an R1, the brake lever is the component that can act without you. That is the ISS115RC: 132 mm guard length of structural carbon in front of the R1 brake lever. Bush colour is a choice of 8 on the R1; see the specifications for the range. It is the cheapest safety part you can bolt to a R1.
Key Features
- Original R1 controls stay exactly where they are
- Finished to the same geometry as the polymer and aluminium versions
- Made in Italy
- Stops the brake lever of the R1 being pressed by contact
- Meets the lever-guard requirement most organisers apply to an R1 on track
- LighTech part number ISS115RC, catalogued for the Yamaha R1
Scope of Delivery
The ISS115RC is supplied as one guard for one side of the R1. With the preselected “Adapter” value, the adapter for the R1 arrives in the same delivery as the ISS115RC. LighTech keeps the ISS115RC in its spare-parts programme rather than treating it as disposable.
Why Carbon Here
Every gram at the end of the bar on an R1 works against the steering. The ISS115RC is a carbon bridge across 132 mm guard length in front of the brake lever. The R1 steers the same with it fitted as without.
Compatibility and Installation
This listing covers the Yamaha R1, 2020 to 2026. Bar-end weights have to come off the R1 before the guard goes on.
In the Workshop
Allow a quarter of an hour per side on the R1 the first time. Check full steering lock on the R1 before you ride — the guard must not touch the tank or screen. Mirrors and bar-end weights have to come off the R1 first.
The Adapter Option
A LighTech lever guard does not mount without its adapter. The R1 handlebar has its own bore, and the adapter has to match it exactly. The “Adapter” option names the part for the R1: KPL311, preselected — one guard, one adapter per side. If KPL311 is already in the bar of your R1, “Without Adapter” saves buying it twice.
Approval and Track Rules
On track the brake lever guard is usually not optional. There is no type-approval document for the ISS115RC, and we do not present one. On a road-registered R1 the fitted position is a question for your inspection body, not for us.
