    Well, that's what they told me when I was talking to them at their store. Followed up with a call saying I can try for at least 3-4 but they wanted 15 orders at the least.

    Anyways, now that they are ok with individual orders, that's something good for the owners.

      1. Which is the best showroom in Pune to get there bike serviced?



      TIA.
      Hi Anubhav,

      I would say Monarch Yamaha in Tilak road, is the best SVC for Yamaha in Pune. I had experience in Wagholi, Vishrantwadi, Kharadi, Baner.

      Monarch is the best in Pune.

        Medzilla tyres are really good (Its like u need to make a stupid mistake to fall with them) but the ABS is still a let down feels spongy and lacks the bite.

        After the stock pads wear out planning for a better break pads (please suggest if anyone knows a good one for R3)

        Few other things I noticed is that low end torque is bit low for City (Specially in 1st and 2nd gear in stop and go traffic), one of my friend suggested bigger chain sprocket will help but will reduce the top speed (I am ok with this its not that i go 150 every day) - but let me know your thoughts.

        Vinod (mechanic) from pacer yamaha seems to have gone for holidays since more than a month now. However there was another mechanic named Vijay who works on R3.
        Any suggestion for R3 service in South Bangalore?

          Sorry, not aware of any in south Bangalore. We have a WhatsApp group for Karnataka R3 owners and I have seen most owners in Bangalore going to Bangalore wheels Rajajinagar for service.

                  Something that I came across. Thought of sharing it here.

                  2019 Yamaha R25 has appeared online through two neat renderings by Motoblast. As R3 and R25 have same design, the 2019 Yamaha R3 will also get the same styling and appearance update. As everyone was expecting, they have finished this one with Yamaha R6 and R15 inspired components and made some ma...

                        Haha, good one mate, I was talking about the next upgrade and not the "ultimate upgrade". In that case mine would be the multistrada

                            Recently came across a Motovlogger named Sirax Khan on Youtube.
                            He has been riding R3 for past 3 years in North East and have done some great rides including that on slushy and mudy roads.
                            Proves R3 can take some beating on not so good roads as well.
