I am riding Yamaha YZF R3 since 2019. It is indeed the great choice that you can make.

Does anyone have an link to workshop manual of R3?

And i have ordered an oil filter for R3 and its been 20days and still the dealer is saying that it will take 15days more is it like this in your city?

Thats good. Glad u get Michelin tyres in stock size. My CBR's Apollo tyres have completed 17k kms. I'm thinking to use MRF tyres next time bcoz of stock tyre size. Loved Alpha H1's performance.

Re: Yamaha YZF R3 Owners Reviews and Experiences

SO, I got the delivery of my R3 on Dec 28th ! I got the Matt Black version.
Got the delivery from Perfect Riders, Jayanagar.

Will not say the process was awesome.
Up to the point of buying the bike, everything was great, great attention too.
However, was left very unsatisfied with the PDI.

It felt like the bike was not washed, there was literally dust all over the seat.
And a feeling of dread, I felt like I was given the bike that was on display when I first went.

Which meant that, whenever they were showcasing the bike, they were cranking the accelerator like there is no tomorrrow !
Had to stop him when he displayed this to me the first time, he cranked it all the way to 5k rpm from a cold start so that "I could feel the engine"!!!

Further issues in the PDI, they were impatient with my checklist and the items I was checking.
no comments on asking them to open and show the oil/liquid levels. Got only 3l of petrol too, barely.

Luckily, went to the petrol pump nearby, and that's where Blackthorn's PDI list came handy

The tyre pressure was 11 on both wheels!!! vs. a recommended f 29 and 33.

I then got a long ride back home in the fantastic Bengaluru mid day traffic.
Had to navigate through traffic.

Few observations, i felt the clutch is rather not stiff for a bike that doesnt have a slipper clutch, definitely alright to be using it for 30m of slow moving traffic.
That said, my bike has a lot of vibrations, I can feel it all the way up to 3rd gear.

There also seems to be quite a "click" when the gear engages (after i release the clutch lever).
hope these 2 issues get resolved after the first service.

The bike itself is a hoot, and I get so much attention on the streets (I dont prefer this, but its nice to get a "OH!" look from the ones that know the bike).

Had 3 false neutrals within like 5 minutes after i had ridden in the traffic for 45 minutes. The engine heat does pilfer a lot to your legs.

But an injury while playing football means I haven't touched the bike since! :|

Finally got Michelin Pilot street Radials from LAL Tyres, Katupakkam, chennai. front(110/70/r17) and back(140/70/r17). Bill amount was 13.5k for the pair which was highly disappointing, but had no other way. These dealers are making use of the demand for 140 radials and selling it overpriced. But one thing which keeps bugging my mind is that the rear one is 2020 manufactured tyre, Hope it doesn't affect the performance as the shelf life is around 5 years.

I'm going from same dilemma. Although I've CBR 250r but I've installed Apollo Alpha H1. It has perfomed very well but there's little bit drop in ave n also bike feels little bit heavier in handelling. Although these things r not affecting my riding. But I want next tyre replacement to be of stock size - 140/70R-17. But there r very few options in that size.
I've also same purpose of highway touring with crusing speed btwn 90-110.

Hello R3 Riders,

I've been riding my R3 from 2018 September. The stock metzelers laster for around 13k kms for me and then I changed to Apollo Alpha H1(it was launched newly at that time with a lucrative price tag). I'm very much happy with the performance it offered. But I always have this strange feeling that I'm missing something with the 140/70 offered. Now it's time for me to change the Alpha H1 as it has completed around 18k kms. Any good suggestions on 140 section radials. Not interested on Pirelli diablo Rosso II due to its price and life span. I've heard about mrf masseter but not much about someone using it on R3. If anyone has used it on R3, can you please share your experience. My purpose is purely touring on highways and ghats mostly. Cruising speed will be 100 to 120 and occasional speed bursts like 150 to 170.

Thanks in advance

Can you please tell me its price and specifications.I want to buy it. mod apk download
