Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Nov launch was suspected. But now even I am confused with Yamaha's stand on R3 launch.
Also, ABS ruling has been moved to Apr 2019. So R3 launch has nothing to do with mandatory ABS ruling.
Hope Yamaha is listening.

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Hi everyone, my R3 has done close to 18,000 kms and the stock tyres (especially rear) are completely worn out. Need to change the tyres. I went through the thread and found out different people trying different sets. I wanted to go with pirelli. But there are rumors that the pirelli tyres in bangalore are old stock. Is it true? Has anyone got pirelli recently? How's the quality? Where did you get it from?

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
And I have come across another major issue which is not letting me sleep. My bike is feeling very rough at speed of 70-120 kmph after the 4th (paid) service done in bangalore wheels. The vibes come down if I cross 120 kmph. But it is still there. I thought it was due to engine oil which I was not happy with (I have been using yamalube fully synthetic). So I got it serviced again early in just after 2600 kms and changed the engine oil. I had ordered the service guys not to put yamalube engine oil. I had went out to bring motul engine oil. By the time I came back to service center, it was quite late as I was held up with some other work. The service guys had put yamalube again. I had also complained about the vibes and rough feeling to the service guys. They did nothing about it. I came back home and took it to airport road to check if the vibes are still present. Sadly there was no change at all even after changing the engine oil. Could anyone help me understand what could be the problem?

Can't comment on Pirelli as I got Michelin Pilot Street set recently. Diablo Rosso 2 is good and Amazon has new stock for 11K set. I would suggest radials only.
For the vibes, if the bike hasn't been dropped, please get the engine mounting bolts tightened and also check if the fairing clips are not missing.
For more engine smoothness and free revving, you can try Motul 300V. It makes all the difference. But I am shifting back to 7100 for better longevity and touring usage next timeQuench my thirst with gasoline!

As far as the vibes are concerned, if its due to roughness in engine, then use SHELL Rimula R4. I know its a HDEO, but believe, no other oil has cleansing and lubricating properties like it. I have used it in all my bikes with great result.Yamaha Ray ZR Street Rally -> 2020

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Guys Kawa has opened showroom in Goa now , So i might not wait for R3 anymore but will wait to see if it launched with ABS if not then N300 is way to go but Internet rumors says that Kawasaki might launch new 2018 N300, since it has not launched N300 in their 2018 line up and rumors of N400 also doing around .
Ohh God so much confusion this daysLast edited by coldfire2005; 10-19-2017, 03:58 PM.
