In addition to my MT-03, I also have a BMW S1000rr, a Honda VTX 1300R, and a Honda PCX150. The MT-03 is easily my favorite bike to ride from this group.

Can't go wrong with this especially as a first bike. Very fun and nice motorcycle

So awesome to gets Barts reviews on this bike! So glad he likes it. Looking forward to some hopped up parts from you guys. Im the meantime keep the great videos on this bike coming. 👍

Purchased mine on 5/20 and i love it. Integrated light and relocation are on point. Great videos.

I bought my MT-03 three weeks ago and couldn't be happier. I love the look of that grip tape you added to sides and now I want to look for it. This weekend I wired up a front and rear camera and it was relatively easy to do.

I started on a rebel 500. Great bike to start. Rode it for 1000 miles and got an mt09. If you like sporty bikes, you should get the mt03. Also the 500cc engine of rebel gets to 80mph with no issues. I an not sure about the mt03 engine and highway. I am sure it will get to 80 but insure about passing power and overall feel at that speed.

My first bike, I definitely recommend it very fun easy and nimble, also pretty fast for a 300cc

I'm 6ft tall (same as Bart it seems) and don't think this bike is too uncomfortable, but am probably going to upgrade later this year to a MT-07 or MT-09 partly because of the increase in seat height. BTW this is my very first motorcycle, total noob learning to ride at 53yo 🙂

I'm loving my 2020 MT03. Been wondering if this is normal and/or fixable through a tune or something - I find the throttle to be... not jerky but when I very slowly roll off the throttle there is a point it just cuts/disengages and same when accelerating it's like an on and off switch. From what I've read it sounds common on fuel injected bikes? I'm new to riding so could very well just be something normal and I need to work on my muscle memory.

@TSTindustries

4 жыл бұрын

The R3 and MT03 have this nuance. The roll off is easily fixable by flashing the ECU and telling the computer to not cut fuel on decel. The other way on the opening of throttle there is some tuning magic that can improve this but it is easier just to learn the bike's nuances.

Hey I also found your channel because I bought an MT03! I already bought a bunch of you products and I can’t wait to get it in the mail! I do have a question though do you recommend or would you recommend DIY maintenance for motorcycles? I have a pretty good understanding of the required maintenance but I am curious about your opinion!

@BackwardsMarathonPSU

4 жыл бұрын

I bought a R3 as my first bike, which is pretty much the same bike as the mt-03 mechanically, and learned to do all my own maintenance. It's super rewarding, and something I highly recommend you do to learn your bike. And it's a very simple motorcycle and solidly built - so hard to really mess anything up permanently. Plus, Between TST and Sport Bike Track Gear they have videos on youtube that have walkthroughs of all the maintenance tasks. If you can turn a wrench, you can handle the maintenance yourself on this bike.

I just got me a brand new one as well and I'm running it at buttonwillow here in California I'm taking it to the track for Father's day and I was wondering what air pressure you ran on those tires while riding on the track I like this bike I like it it's real life is easy for me to control

Love me some of those blind spots and flow of BW. I spent a bunch of time there when I lived out west. Unfortunately I do not remember the pressures I settled on with those tires. We ended up changint that rubber out pretty quickly and those figures did not stick in my head.

I have a 2019 mt03 (live outside of us) and I wish I had waited because the 2020 MT looks better and doesn't have the stupid pillion grab handles which I want to remove but then there's a space in the back so I'm annoyed

Looks so much better without that huge plastic tail hanging off the back💯

I wonder how this will compare to the honda cb300r

@TSTindustries

4 жыл бұрын

There is no way to flash out ABS from the ECU. To really circumvent it you will need to get non-ABS R3 brake hoses, and connect your master cylinders to calipers. Then you can remove all the hoses and lines from the ABS but will have to retain the pump, or at least the circuitry from the pump so that you can still get speed data to your cluster and ECU.

I watched a lot of this series you guys did, along with some other reviews, before buying my MT-03 in November of last year. As a basically new (i.e., minimal riding from a long time ago) rider, it felt like the sweet spot to get reacquainted and excited at the same time. Caveat: I live in Michigan, so I got to put about 200 miles on it before I decided to garage it for a bit. In any case, I can't wait to get it out of the garage! Totally stock too, btw lol . . .

Yessssy sir!

My biggest 2 problems with my mt03 is the tyres and the rediculous ground clearance. I've completely lost confidence in my mt03 because of lack of ground clearance. I also want to buy track-use-only tyres. Any suggestions? I'm in NZ.

@TSTindustries

3 жыл бұрын

Tires are like religion to some people. There are many good tires out there from various manufacturers. At the moment we like the Bridgestone R11 for the little bikes but you have to have the pace to keep appropriate heat in them, and I would not use them without warmers. We also tested and likes some Michelin, Pirelli, and Dunlop tires that worked well with some of our riders but not all. For better ground clearance you will need to get yourself track use rearsets. They make the bike less comfortable to ride but give you ample ground clearance.

What is biker height??

Hey Mark you're a long time rider, what does that mean? That you're good? I've been riding since 1990, I guess I'm a long time rider but in these almost 33 years I had one bad accident in 94, after that I had to dump my bike once and I've tipped over because I lost my balance on two heavy bikes I had 3 times ...so am I a good rider, I don't know, I'm not a pro. But it seems to me you're very sure of your riding, be careful or you might find your self on the wrong end of a truck. Just sound advice.

Just ordered the hyperpack bundle from you guys can't wait to unbox my goodies. I'm waiting for you guys to restock some of the exhaust products for sale hopefully soon.

@TSTindustries

3 жыл бұрын

The R3 is much more comfortable at high speeds though.

It's a great bike, but it's also kind of a pain to live with as well. The horn switch position is the worst, it's a small little button to the right of the signal switch, in a pinch you would never be able to reach it in time to warn others. The signal switch is squishy and lack any sort of feedback, so you don't know if you have turned on/off your signal by feel. If you got the colours where the tank is painted glossy, you have no grip on the tank, which causes you to keep sliding forward due to the forward cant of the seat. This is coming from a commuting centric Yamaha FZS-150, which has a far flatter seat. A lot of reviewers praise the MT-03's riding position and comfort, but it's all relative. The MT-03 is not as comfortable, if you're coming from a more commuting centric bike

One of the most UNDERRATED things that "motovloggers" most always miss is... HOW TALL THEY ARE, and HOW MUCH THEY WEIGH. It would be GREAT to get some perspective / comparison, from the person on the bike...and yourself, the viewer.

Something tells me here that you didn't watch the entire video. I often wonder why people ask questions that were answered in the video content. Like your previous tire question...that was answered. And the fact that the bike is pretty much stock at the shooting of that video was also remarked. At the shooting of that video the bike maybe had a couple hundred bucks retail value of parts on it. Beyond that episode we did invest several thousand dollars retail value into it. These builds that we do usually amount to triple to quadruple of the value of the bike itself in time, materials, and technologies.
