Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
The thing is i have been itching for an upgrade since a year now but one thing or another screws up the timeline.. now i think i can go ahead and get one.. i am tired of waiting for the Abs model or a suitable 600cc bike except from kawa. so i have to dicide between the RC and the R3. i was hoping some eager r3 owners might have taken a test ride of the new RC and could share their valuable feedback.

The R3 i have only sat on once that too almost a year back and i didnt realy like the rear pegs.. worse than those on the R15 V1. also the recent recalls and code 19 stuff has somewhat eroded the confidence i had in Yamaha. Plus its super rare and i havent seen even a single one on road innmy region..Originally posted by drdanishkhannew.540 View PostAny R3 owners who took the test drive of the new RC 390? Is the power delivery comparable.. R3 test ride not available in lucknow.. not even a showroom piece..bike available only on booking amount of 50k.. Took a TD of the new RC. much refined over previous model but stance still a bit aggressive and there are vibrations everywhere still.. R15 V1 felt like a sofa after riding it. I am confused now. R3 does come barebone and RC is fully loaded..Should i just buy the RC or take a chance with the Yamaha R3 ?
If you'd like an upgrade from a single cylinder and calls for affordable, reliable motorcycle, then go for R3 eyes closed. Yes they had clutch issues, yes they had ignition lock issues, yes they had some coolant leak issues, yes they had some handlebar aligning issues, but they're all sorted for the most part in the newer lots.
It's a pretty decent package for the price. Though I personally feel the inclusion of ABS would have been a real icing on the cake for this motorcycle, which serves a useful purpose on a mid sized machine like this.
Cheers!

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
I had started reading the ownership threads since the start. But due to my twelfth grade I had to stop (still in twelfth). I haven't been up to date with everything. Sorry for acting like a total lazy bum.
I just had a few questions and would be very glad if someone answered them, here goes.
Are all of the issues rectified? I mean the handlebar hitting the tank amongst others...
Will it be sensible to get it in July this year? Or should I wait for the updated model (this would be very difficult)
What is the average fuel efficiency? Need to for the highways. As I plan to tour.
Is the tank range good enough to tour?Last edited by RushabhKaddu; 02-15-2017, 07:20 AM.

Myself has 2015 manufactured model but haven't faced any of these issues and nowadays all pending/previously reported issues have solved too.

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Buy N300. Years of refinement. Better looking than the R3(personal opinion). You can't mistake a Ninja for anything else. Slipper clutch. Sounds like a rocket once u start going over 7000rpm. 12k redline. Loads of aftermarket mods. Zero niggles. Every part exudes quality. Fill it and forget it.

Huge respect for N300 but you can't straight away put R3 out of the scene.

Regarding aftermarket just search online you will get same aftermarket spares like N300. I have done 15k kms and arnab Chowdhury has done over 40k kms here we haven't faced a single issue.

If it does bother u so much, here are pros of R3
Butter smooth engine.
Saves u about 40k.
Cheaper spares.
Cheaper to maintain.
More power than the N300.
More torque.
Better brakes.
Blue colour scheme is delicious.
Good low n mid range i.e. feels great even in city rides.
Stronger after sales service network.
It's Yamaha.
Peace brother.
