Idk why I’m watching this when the bike is sitting in my driveway

bought the R3 (2020) as my first bike, and I don't regret it one bit. I feel like it was the perfect starter bike for learning. It looks like a bigger bike, perfect for city riding, has just enough "oomph" to be safe at highway speeds. Would recommend 100%. Currently looking to upgrade, but will be keeping the R3 for sure.

Hey Texas brother, I think I'm getting the R3 for everyday commuting. I've been riding my XR150L to work and back and have 13 years under my belt. I've been considering the CBR250R and came across this bike. Rats, this bike is so good I overlooked it. I even rode one several years back. I may have to go for this as I'm going for a small displacement sport bike.

Two-up? Dang, my old 500cc Ninja had enough trouble getting up a hill with a 5'11 Amazon chick on back. I can't imagine how an R3 would do. But boy does that thing look sexy. I'm old enough to remember when there was some law that entry-level sportbikes had to be criminally ugly.

I just went to a delarship to sit on some bikes and see which is for me. I’m 4’11 and it fit me perfectly. I’m planning on to save for this bike! I wasn’t able to try the 400 but I’ll keep looking

Yup getting my r3 in a month from can’t wait 🤘🏾

I’m 15 and I ride motocross. I have said for so long that I want a street bike, specifically an r3 when I’m 16. My parents still don’t like that idea so I may have to wait until I’m 18. Either way I love this review! Thanks!

Beginner bike? Works amazingly well in city or on highways. I have ridden her daily for 2 years, half the time in the rain. Beautiful aesthetics, least important, but I get compliments everywhere,

Nice, what phone mount do you have?

Hi. How much is fuel concumption in city and higtway?km/l

Hey nice video, I´m 6.3 feet tall. Do you think the R3 will fit me?

Gojira 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

What about vs a ninja 400

If you want to put a phone mount on the r3 I used the following on my 2018, should work on newer models Amazon part numbers since I can't post the links - RAM-HOL-UN7BU - RAM-B-367U - RAP-B-201U-A

it is a beautiful bike is all you need really. ego is what makes people think they need more

What kind of exhaust?

Just bought a 2022 R3. You state in the video at times a loose, squirmy feeling. I definitely noticed this driving home from the dealership. You don't seem all that concerned in the video.. should I be as a new rider? Thanks for your feedback.

It never felt out of control, just less planted than heavier bikes. My advice is to always make sure tire pressures are spot on cause that will contribute to the issue. Don't be concerned of it, just hone your skills.

2 years ago I also bought a brand new R3 as my first bike. 2 years and 10k km later I would easily recommend this bike as a starter bike. It’s easy and light to control and after 2 years it still gives me enough power to feel like I’m on a 600 cc bike

What is the name of the custom exhaust?

The r3 was the first motorcycle I have purchased, and learned how to ride on. I agree with Simon, this motorcycle has been enough for me. Daily commute to work and back. I will consider upgrading in the next couple of years, but this is a well built, fuel efficient, quick bike. If I could do it all over again, I would buy an r3 to begin on.

If you are a smaller rider (height and weight) R3 would probably be better for you. If you are bigger, CBR500 would probably be best bet. But price difference is a huge factor also.. CBR is way more money for not much more power.

This is probably it. That or a ninja 400 or an older 500 😆

The ninjas are notorious for feeling moped-ish. Unless that's what you're looking for. A city commuter that's easy on gas and can slip through traffic. And for that they sacrifice highway power and ability in the curves without some modding. With that being said they can still be fast bikes. We've all seen 250s smoke bigger bikes through curves on the track. But the 300s of today feel so much nicer.

Listening to Gojira. 👍

R3 may be torquier down low, but ninja 400 gets better fuel economy even though it's a bigger engine that makes more power because cruising RPM will always be lower for any given speed Also, with a slip on and a tune the ninja 400 picks up quite a bit of power
