    I have a r3 2018. Last year of the version 1. It's the standard 41 hp. Some say the Ninja 400 or ninja 500 is stronger and better, Depending where you live the Ninjas US version have about 51 hp i think, And the Eu version ninja have about 45 hp, I'm living in EU so the difference in power between r3 and the ninjas is then about 4 HP , But as i understand in the US the ninjas have about 51 hp, So the idifference in power is bigger and more notable, What's nice about the R3 is it seems to be the same power configuration all over the world so parts for the engine are the same everywhere, And the service intervalls for the valve adjustments is at 40000 km for the R3, and 25000 for most of the Kawasaki's.

    hey ,I am a LAMS rider about to get this bike and I was wondering if it is Legal to put an akpo slip on muffler on it that Yamaha sells on their website? Also is it Legal to get a fender eliminator and indicators? I only ask as I know you work in law enforcement.

    i have never had an issue with comfort on the R3, though the stock seat isn't the best for riding longer than 1 hr. i have had to pull over to give my butt a rest. and i usually only ride that long during the summer, so it's not worth it to me to spend $300 on a seat upgrade

    The R3 oil light comes on after a pre-determined amount of k’s not because the oil is low. It comes on to let you know you’re due for a change.

    change the oil sooner during the first oil change. your oil will having little specks in it, basically metal shavings from breaking in the new engine. it clears up after that first oil change

    I sat on an R1 last month and it’s seat felt so much higher than the R3, so my advice if you’re vertically challenged is to stay on an R3 or maybe go to the R7 in time which to me feels exactly the same height as the 3.

    My experience with the R3 has been very similar. I bought a used blue 2020 model with 900kms on it mid COVID to avoid public transport. Just about to tick over 20,000kms mostly commuting but many Sunday runs sprints over Mt Glorious/Nebo and a couple of advanced riding days. I replaced the tyres with Bridgestone S22 that was a noticeable improvement in handling. I have had the team at Northstar Yamaha doing the major services. They really know R3s. At the 10k service they adjusted everything and the improvements were noticeable, the bike was smoother and easier to control. I’d recommend it to anyone inheriting someone else’s modifications. I’m 5’10 the ergonomics are perfect, so much so I’m having trouble deciding what to upgrade to.
