      Yamaha YZF R3 performance-based bike I never owned it, but I have ridden it so many times and I just love it if you are going on long trips, it is not very comfortable mainly because I have pain in my lower back whenever I drive this for a long time. In my point of view, it is value for money and good-looking as well.

      R3: Beast in the segment

      1 year ago


      Sagar Suman Panda

      - Buying Experience:
      Smooth process at authorized dealerships.
      - Riding Experience:
      Thrilling with a powerful 321cc engine, balanced for city and highway rides.
      - Looks:
      Sporty, aggressive design with modern aesthetics.
      - Performance:
      Strong initial, mid-range, and top-end power from the parallel-twin engine. Best in the segment
      -Servicing/Maintenance:
      Reliable options, scheduled services, and genuine spare parts are available.
      -Pros&Cons:
      Most powerful and only twin-cylinder in the 300cc segment in India. Unbeatable in both the initial and top-end.
      Feels a bit overpriced.

      Quite expensive but, none of the bikes give this much riding experience. So highly recommend buying it.
      Good finishing
      Service and all Yamaha people give good repose. Don't open the full throttle.
      The engine it's very smooth and comfortable to ride, gives relative mileage and all
      Have a safe journey.

      The best 300 I would say!!

      2 years ago


      Aldrin Pf

      This bike is a gem. It offers the best things of its rivals, refinement of the ninja 300 and almost the same power as 390s. Being in a 300cc segment it offers a better pick-up than a ninja and better cruising speed, top end with less stress compared to the 390s. Cons: built quality is not great as the ktms, and all parts won't be readily available in service centers.

      Change the oil every 3000 km. Try to use 140 tyres to make the speedo more accurate. Please maintain this beauty clean, it never disappoints you.

      0 vibration smooth engine

      Bhavesh Jadav

      I am using r3 from last 2 years
      pro:
      power full engine
      good handling
      dual channel ABS
      0 vibration
      cons:
      The Headlamp is not LED but you don't face any problems.
      expensive service cost and expensive parts.
      less ground clearance according to Indian roads (sometimes is touch the ground)
      mileage is not pocket friendly
      but when you ride 160 plus then you understand all of your money is worth it run so smooth even 160 plus.

      Totally overpriced and average looks

      6 years ago


      Aneez

      The price is totally vague 3 lakh is totally overpriced.. Looks isn't that good compared to other bikes in same price range... Never owned this bike but as a customer point of view.. I wouldn't buy such an overpriced bike... Unless i got lakhs lying around. As a bike lover.. I my opinion, I would prefer buying a kawasaki ninja instead of buying an overpriced average looks vehicle.

      Great mechanically with some shortcomings

      6 years ago


      Yashas

      Pros:
      1. Stonking engine
      2. Good build quality
      3. I've ridden the non ABS variant but now
      the inclusion of ABS is really welcoming
      4. Braking was great. And now with ABS, I hope that braking performance got better.
      5. Good for touring
      Overall, great mechanical
      Cons:
      1. Price - now with Kawasaki making a great move by launching Ninja 300 at approximately 3lakhs R3 seems to be pretty overly priced
      2. This bike is not a pure "R" series bike as it doesn't offer that level of sportiness as compared to other R series bikes like R6 or R1
      3. After having ridden RC390 and Yamaha R3 back to back, I really felt that handling of R3 is not that great, probably because of the weight
      4. Looks are subjective but with that asking price Yamaha should have upgraded the design especially the front end
      5. And yes, mileage is around 25-28kmpl on the highways and in the city traffic, mileage drops down to single digit
      Overall it is a good bike but it hasn't got enough bling to attract potential buyers. It gets the job done but it is not a proper sportsbike. Now with Kawasaki offering Ninja 300 at 3L, Yamaha have got to up their strategy because Ninja 300 is a perfect alternative for R3. And if you want a great track tool just get RC390.
      I ride my friend's R3 and to be frank he's now thinking of getting a bike more sportier.
