          Damn you brother,

          I had to do literally monkey stunts at home to keep my previous bikes( which didnt happen after all circus stunts). I had to sell my P220 and CL5 eventually.

          Lucky you, you have 2 most gorgeous ladies by your side. Ladies, please take care of this guy.

          Congrats Ankit .

                Thanx ,just the ride from dealer to my house was 130kms,so there it is.It,s been raining so once you clean up the bike don't feel like mucking it up again.

                  Congratulations guys. R3 community growing strong. Seems like the black is preferred choice of xbhp members.. We now have 3 blacks vs 2 blues AFAIK.. Cheers..

                    Bro, I am not in New Delhi, I am in Navi Mumbai. And here it is raining. And yes the price that I have quoted is of Navi Mumbai registration.

                    Yes Bro, from dimensions it seems that R3 is bigger but once you sit on both the bikes you realize that Ninja 300 feels big.
                    Ninja is bulky, seems wide and long.
                    Yamaha R3 seems tall(height) and yes equally long.
                    both bikes provide awesome control over the road and are comfortable to ride.
                    (Though I guess Ninja provides more gravity to personality)
                    hehehe.

                    Do you want me to post pictures of both side by side??? I will do that. if you frens want it. Though I understand its a Yamaha R3 thread.

                    Thanks Archer..
                    I am spoilt for choice. hehehe, kidding.
                    yup a little lucky. The last time I was having a KTM Duke200 and Yamaha R15 both at the same time hehehe.

                      Congratulations for the bike guys, looks awesome in black, and yeah post more pics.

                      How is the ride quality? Comfortable over potholes and bad roads? any uncomfortable body parts like in RC?

                        Ride Quality
                        Ride is very smooth, the handle bars are narrower( compared to Ninja300) but seem wider if you are graduating from Yamaha R15.
                        High positioned clip-ons don't give any pain to forearms or palms. Seat is plush, enough padding.
                        And suspension soaks up bumps easily, As if the bike is gliding through potholes.

                        One point I would like to make. Sudden potholes or bumps over the road do not unsettle the rider Or the calm nature of the bike.



                        Frens,

                        Please keep pouring in your questions that will help me design the review and will help others who wish to understand the bike in making a wise decision.
