I don't think his bike would be affected as it was manufactured out of the faulty parts wala batch. But just in case if one needs to check it, here's the link to it --> https://www.yamaha-motor-india.com/service-recall.html

Just enter the chassis number and the site throws you with a notification saying if your bike is affected with a faulty part or not. Also, make sure your chassis number does not fall in that range present in the link.

P.S. - Didn't want to scare him right away with the recall news as his post was one of his first in the thread

Thank you Niku. Yes, it'd be helpful to folks knowing what exactly was replaced with detailed photos, so that it always comes in handy.

Cheers!

First of all, many congratulations on your purchase. Do the run-in properly. It sure is a beauty. Ride safe

Secondly, i don't think you should be concerned about the manufacture date as it is only 5 months ago. Unless your bike acts weird and you faced issues while doing PDI checks, you're good to go. There's a detailed thread on PDI at the very top of the ownership main page. Please go through it if incase you have missed checking on anything.

Thirdly, you can PM me with your full name and cell phone number. I will get you added to the group.

Even I need to be added,please.

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Hello Guys,

I am looking at a getting a used R3 and i am reaching out to the R3 owners to see if they can guide me to some of the things I need to lookout for when checking a used bike.
I am looking at bikes either from 16' 17' and within the mileage range of 18k-25k kms.

Also wondering if the Recall is not done by the previous owner , will I be able to do it ?

Looks promising but as always bracing self to not get hit by the consistent Yamaha disappointment of pricing. It mentions localization but that may knock off 20K at max because Yamaha India will never cut on its profits and premium charges.
