Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Check the tire pressure. Usually the tire fitment guys overinflate the tyre while installing. Also the check the tyres for flat spots and shape. What is manufacturing week of the new tyre? -
Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Hi guys,
I recently changed the tyres. Same specs to Pirellis. Did balancing/alignment. Now the bike is swaying. Turning/leaning doesn't feel confidence inspiring. What could be the issue?? Wheels not installed properly by the mechanic?? Bike was straight as an arrow. When I leave my hands off the handle bar, bike doesn't stay straight. It used to.
Any inputs on this issue?
Regards!Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Thank you sir! The on road price is 4.4L. Since I had purchased a R15S back on 2016, the dealer offered a 'loyalty discount' choice between 3k and a helmet. So, for me the on road price was toned down to 4.37L 🤓. Happy riding!Originally posted by Raman Swaminathan View PostLeave a comment:

Thank you!Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostRide as you would normally, rev match, blip, whatever you have to. Take it to tripe digits speeds occasionally. Basically, make sure your engine gets a dose of all RPMs and all speeds. Make sure you don't redline, that's the only thing you need to worry about. Rest ride as you normally you would, nothing to worry.
Cheers!

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Hey guys,
I had booked the R3 from Laxmi International, Bangalore on September 30. The sales rep said the bike will be delivered by October 15.
I have a question regarding engine break-in. Can we rev-match during engine break-in? Will the sudden throttle input harm the engine?
I have read the whole 350+ post thread and have learnt a lot. Thank you all. Also, please consider on adding me to the R3 whatsapp group. Cheers!Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Came across a simple yet neat video of fork overhauling (fluid and seal replace) for the R3. Should come in handy for people who are interested.
Cheers!

Not worth it, the foreign brands have basically ruled out doing this.Originally posted by kiran2508 View PostYou should also probably wait for Corporate tax reduction benefit 30% to 22% to be passed on to customer aswell
I was waiting on taxes, which are external, discounts and rate cuts cant be speculated on, honestly.Leave a comment:

No GST cut then, time to stop speculating and really get the bike!Originally posted by Raman Swaminathan View PostHello!
I am a prospective buyer.
Have almost certainly zeroed in on the R3 as the bike I am buying.
I am currently waiting to see if the GST rates are dropped (28-18% would mean nearly 35,000 savings!!) and if there are any festival discounts on the bike.
The question I have for the riders here is, what are the niggles/issues present on the bike?
What was your major headache so far and if at all, what would you say i need to be really wary of.
This will be my primary vehicle where I will use it for like 15kms in the city daily (Bangalore, but no traffic due to work timing) and weekend /month end rides.
Thanks

Yep, low beam bulb conking off is a problem with every bike. Can't help it.Originally posted by Raman Swaminathan View Post
Regarding projectors, there was one guys from Hyderabad who'd done a DIY on it (search for the keyword on this thread) and there's one guy from Bengaluru also, but he left the group.
I'll try to PM their leads to you
