In our country, we can only use the expressway if our bikes have at least 400cc

Where did you get the clips. And do they have a name?

QS is available on R15 v4 from 2022

The turn signals are what put me off the new R3 instantly.

I just bought a new r3 last weekend. Time for me to cope

it does come with QS as an option now

The rear Taillight is actually a Downgrade from R125 & R-15 model which is actually a cheaper version also smaller displacement version. I loved the previous taillights because they had two lines. In India r3 costs more than Aprilia RS457 & close to Ninja500

Please upgrade the R3 to R4 now, Everyone is shifting to 400+cc now

Tbh New R3 looks better than the R9. R9 looks cheap and styling was an afterthought.

GOOD Video

Like music brotha

A quickshifter would be sweet

I agree this is not a good beginner bike with an initial cost that will likely scare away/disqualify most beginner riders. IMO the 457 buyer will end up being someone interested in a lighter weight and lower cost alternative to the ZX4RR though I don't think it will have the engine tuning potential of the Kawasaki. Best is not the same as best fit and in the end I think a base Ninja 500 or CFMoto 450SS is a better choice for those looking for a brand new beginner sport bike.

The people who say small cc bikes can't do the interstate are probably Harley owners who own a 1800cc bike that tops out at like 70 because it weighs like 500 metric tons.

I agree with you. Why buy something that isn’t even supported that well

The cbr650r and the yamaha r7 both have lams moddles here in nz and aus like imo the bikes that sit right in the limit are like a 2nd bike kinda thing since we have 3 license tears learners, restricted and full the biger lams bikes are like you have spent a good amount of time riding and want to upgrade to something that's got a few more of those comfort features than like your ninja 400 and r3 Aprilia is a flashy brand so there bike costing so much more than other bikes in it's "class" steers people away since your begginer bike is gona get dropped or crashed it dosent need to be realy nice

I own one, and it is definitely the best under 500 cc bike, i have ridden r3 and ninja 400 extensively, they both pale in comparison.

You're pretty brave to ride with one eye. I need my depth perception, but hats off to you.

Bro the commentary on this is ass dude is just rambling on about everything while explaining nothing 💀

why talk if you don't have the bike? biased

yammie noob would not like this title

if you arent dropping your first bike ur not human lowkey

I don’t hate riding in the wind, I just hate the wind when I’m riding

me as new rider ( im from germany and i just got my license like 2 months ago ), the same thing this old guy told you , my teacher told me the same. Thats a good additude. I just dont love the wind.... everything else is fine. Good video, subbed

Great video especially for just staying quiet maybe let the video's sound come in the music is irritating especially for a night ride

Keep pushing it, I’m gonna subscribe and I’ll be waiting for a follow up or sum hope you get better wheelies . 🫡

Solid start! I couldn't imagine trying to get the R3 to wheelie without some serious popping of the clutch.

Riding is meditation. Meditation is not relaxation technique its focus exercise. It allows your mind to focus on one task over prolong period of time. Allowing your mind to enter state of "flow", especially if this task is repeated.

I’m so focused on riding with the mentality of ‘i need to poop and feed my cats at home’

I think it's the sum of a lot of things combined that makes so therapeutic. Like many outdoor recreational sports you kind of forget your societal/personal life and just do the sport, all your thoughts are as you mentioned on the single performance. And to add on to what you said about the sunlight, I think the fresh air is definitely helping too. Research has shown that O2 rich air has many health benefits both for the body and brain, Inside we don't get that. Lastly the adrenaline rush makes you more relaxed afterwards, as how your dad mentioned it can be exhausting but in a good way. After a good ride (or outdoor sport performance) you feel relaxed yet energized, accomplished and refreshed. This all plus hundreds of other small things added up like enjoying the view and seeing nature. There is so much about it that can be experienced as therapeutic.

I am a mental health therapist. One of the key reasons motorcycling has positive cognitive effects is due to "bilateral stimulation". We use BLS in EMDR therapy to see huge results in treating trauma.

I've never heard of the phrase "monetized attention." Kind of eye opening.

Not everyone will get how OCD you are about adjusting the mirrors. Happy days.

The top end of the R6 is fake from factory. Electronic control wide open throttle. Fixed with a flash tune. Maybe R3 also has restrictions at top end. It will affect top end on highways for sure

If out a bit when you bolt leg on it squeezes everything in solid.

Should be 3 1/4” from edge of metal band to edge of the housing.

Put some wheather stripping adhesive heavy all around metal ring first and don’t over push. I checked twice went in perfect.

Cut my pvc with my radial arm saw both ends perfectly square.

Hey guys But there’s an easier solution. Chunk of white PVC 4” pipe, fits perfect, and a piece of 3/4” plywood drilled to the 4 bolt leg mounting bolt pattern and In solid in 2 minutes

If the power is enough for any application then why should they add more. And the Ninja is not lighter, its heavier. The 500 now gets a lot more torque from the updated engine but at the expense of character, it no longer revs out like a sports bike. I know the power-hungry market's been pressing Yamaha to up the engine displacement and it will probably succeed, which is unfortunate because this little gem of a bike is damn near perfect as it is and there are as absolute ton of advantages of having a small engine and only one con, performance, so back to what I was saying earlier,if the performance is enough then why go for a bigger engine.

How tight should that fit be? I have the opposite issue. I can install by hand and remove by hand. Should it be very hard to remove it?

Thank you!!!!! Question there are two grooves in the outside rubber bellow that fit in the groove of the bell housing. From the outside towards in, which groove do you use?? The second seams to fit better but I question if this is correct? Thank you again so happy you posted this!!

The only time horn is relied on is if you’re stopped behind someone and they start reversing. Because you really have no other options at that point. Otherwise if you’re moving, better to actively do our part and evade danger, than to use the horn and hope other drivers would do the right thing

What chin mount you using

That r7 is charp

Personally, when I tried it out for a test drive in the dealership. I think it's still pretty good. I'd be thankful enough if I have an R3 bc I only use an R15 that's not even mine

If you like general commuting on a motorcycle, getting a bike like the R3 makes a lot of sense. It’s relatively cheap to purchase and maintain, looks cool, easy to ride, handles well,and is reliable. What’s not to like?
