2025 Yamaha R3 Review

[@Lewis_Turbitt]

Finally this is the first video on yt I’ve seen with a hands on review of the 2025 r3. Currently saving for one and this seals the deal for me.

[@wargolemx102]

Indian guy beat them actually. I was like, damn, it's in india now? But it just seems the indian guy straight up went to Australia to review goddamn.

[@ScoutsOut]

haha yea man what a fun bike, so many upgrade vids to come for it. hopefully you get yours soon

[@MonsignorGram]

Agreed

[@tammyle9954]

same ^ i was thinking of getting an older year but yolo im sure ill love it!

[@marvinmartinez2637]

I like the charger and the front light

[@luminous5]

Finally a review on the 2025 version, I’ve been looking for a video like this! I’m currently taking my written test to get my permit once I get my permit I’m going to get this beauty as my first bike! Thank you so much for this review!

[@ScoutsOut]

Nice dude, I hope you pass it! Let me know what you think when you get it

[@luminous5]

I’m looking if my local dealer has the 2025 version ahead of time but unfortunately they don’t so far well that sucks

[@shahrulaqil5711]

This is such an underrated video. Amazing reviews! Keep this coming

[@ScoutsOut]

Thanks bro, much appreciated

[@elizabethwonders]

Now I want one! It seems like a perfect bike! Some bikes are too heavy, some are uncomfortable to ride for taller riders. This seems just right! Excellent video! 👍🔥😊

[@rafaelmagana6823]

Get the Kawasaki 650 that is good for beginners and it’s comfortable

[@jordankelly4684]

Sounds like ass tho​@@rafaelmagana6823

[@alizaidi5610]

I dont know why I'm excited about an R3 interview lol

[@ScoutsOut]

Haha bro that little bike is a blast

[@andypacmanperez]

Beginner bikes are sick

[@khanh8541]

First review! Amazing upgrade

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea man such a fun bike

[@Anthony-hc9ib]

R3 is a great bike people. Stop caring about how big the engine is! It is not about that. It’s about enjoying the ride. This bike is a blast to ride. ❤ don’t go broke for a motorcycle.

[@ScoutsOut]

So true!

[@VAMPS000]

Doesn’t this bike lack power ?

[@ScoutsOut]

Sure, you can say it does but depending on your ability level any bike can lack power. Enjoyment of a moto isn’t just about power

[@TrailTales]

Nice little round-up mate... And it is a NOICE looking little bat that!

[@ScoutsOut]

Thanks Phil

[@ancientfoglet9600]

Thanks so much. I started riding this autumn and I have to admit I'm not super-happy with my Ninja 650 - power is not the problem, but it feels a bit heavy at times (I'm very lightweight myself) and occasionally I lack the confidence it lets me correct my line through a turn if I happen to mess up initially. So I was considering switching to a smaller bike next season to get my skills and confidence up and the R3 looks really good!

[@ScoutsOut]

nice and nothing wrong with switching to a smaller bike, you will learn so much more about riding and learn it in a much safer way on the smaller bikes. plus they are always a blast for experienced riders as well.

[@JagMoto636]

The r3 is such a fun bike to ride. Wish I kept mine

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea bro it really is

[@akmalhasin4982]

perfect review and nice video

[@ScoutsOut]

thanks bro!

[@Maui-Moto]

I have been riding an R3 since 2023. I came off of a back injury which prevented from riding my R6. It is a fantastic little bike. I am now able to ride the R6 again but I have more fun riding a slow bike fast then a fast bike slow. My commute is 45 minutes one way. Speed limit runs from 35 Mph to 55 Mph. The bike is very stable and just plain fun to ride.

[@ScoutsOut]

I totally agree and had a similar experience with a moto crash on a bigger bike. I still have bigger bikes but I still love riding slow bikes fast too

[@butterygudness7577]

Would wait for it to be in the used market since the engine is the same as before, easily the best 300cc bike in its class

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea not a bad idea, and so true what a great package for a small cc bike

[@74OBOY]

I’ve been riding for over 30 years and I’ve recently been wanting to get back in the sport bike game! The R3 checks all boxes for me it’s reliable ,cheap to maintain , & is reasonably inexpensive! In a real world riding scenario there’s no need for for sport bike that’s over 500cc! With that said I’m currently saving for a 2025 R3 that matte stealth black looks menacing!

[@soapfromph6255]

I saw that the 2025 r3 has an optional quickshifter. Does your have one?

[@ScoutsOut]

No it doesn’t, usually the gytr QS only do regular shift and I want it to be GP shift so I will most likely have to buy an aftermarket one

[@robertneilsantiago1714]

@@ScoutsOutgo for the aracer

[@yohaan9]

Finally a hands down review of the new R3.

[@ScoutsOut]

Thank you!

[@Oscar_Fernando46]

Is the quickshifter included from the dealer or it separated as the additional accesories?

[@ScoutsOut]

I believe it’s separate, some dealers could opt to have it added but I’m sure you will pay. I will be installing one as soon as I find one that can do GP shift

[@CarbonRP]

Just one question on everyone's mind - Is the slipper clutch compatible with the Gen 1 and Gen 2 R3?

[@ScoutsOut]

now thats a good question, with I had a way to test it out and let you know

[@talissonnn]

This is a very nice review! Well done!

[@ScoutsOut]

Thank you!

[@sharonkabra7238]

what about review on the Bluetooth connectivity?

[@ScoutsOut]

got me, I totally forgot man, I will try and put something out soon

[@zanders2114]

Getting my first bike… Would I fit on this ok at 6’2? Any other suggestions? The 2024 r3 i saw in person seemed pretty small sitting next to an r7 and a cbr500r

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea I think at 6’2 you will be a little cramped. I’m 5’11 and for normal riding I’m not really cramped but it’s hard to get into an aggressive riding position for me. I’ll be fixing it with rear sets and clip ons but I know a lot of people don’t want to spend that kind of money out the gate

[@ScoutsOut]

The r7 would fit you better

[@stevenanthony6352]

How'd you get those gloves in CA???? They're 🔥 btw

[@ScoutsOut]

had no issue, I got these imp.i104546.net/JKK2q7

[@TrashedRedPanda]

I never had issues getting to my 400s top speed lol

[@wlt3585]

Then it wasn't the top speed. It's very normal for bikes to limit it via the ECU, even if the engine is capable of more

[@TrashedRedPanda]

@ 127 indicated is right around the top speed for a ninja 400 without a tune. I was starting I didn’t have any issues because he said the 400 has issues getting there in a decent manner. Due to gearing which in my experience wasn’t an issue. I had the throttle pinned and full tuck. Either way I just disagree with his opinion but then again I haven’t ridden an R3.

[@ScoutsOut]

it just takes time to wind out there for me, especially being 200lbs lol. Not knocking the 400 as I love the bike too both are great machines just enjoying the new R3

[@TrashedRedPanda]

@ ah I’m only 160 lol

[@pilot9412]

That's a great looking bike!

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea it really is, I’m glad they are finally focusing on some style for the smaller cc bikes

[@MinhNguyen-vl7jj]

is the fuel tank cover still made out of plastic?

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea both pieces are plastic

[@jamespreacherbeck4306]

That was a review.

[@ScoutsOut]

Thanks James

[@kc00]

What’s that R2 mount you had on the gas tank?

[@ScoutsOut]

It tracks time for track or 0-60. It’s pretty cool. It’s this amzn.to/3ZAggvA

[@kc00]

@ thanks!

[@savageflowergun]

Excuse me sir, may i ask? Is the fuel consumption of the new version a problem? I have a 2019 r3 and the cost for fuel like 600cc, that's pretty much.

[@ScoutsOut]

hmm, I haven't noticed yet. Ill keep an eye on the fuel eco and let you know

[@shrinathbhistannavar2729]

nice bike

[@ScoutsOut]

Thank you!

[@MotoEnz]

New tail light: ❎ R15/R125 tail light: ✅

[@ScoutsOut]

Ohh cool, I’ll have to look at those to install

[@JalionBarus-he3rz]

Goog review bro

[@ScoutsOut]

Thank you!

[@morishima65]

I hope front brake is better than old version.

[@ScoutsOut]

Doesn’t seem like it, I’m going to bleed it and see if I can get it a little stiffer, if not steel braided lines and better pads should fix it

[@morishima65]

@ScoutsOut Im wondering how is front break good or bad?

[@ScoutsOut]

Less expensive components

[@paveldas9762]

looks like some 600cc bike

[@ScoutsOut]

yea bro they really are making the smaller bikes look so good now

[@zylynlamis9285]

R3 is a great bike but the rs 457 is coming to ph. Competing this with other 400cc category here in ph will be very hard for r3 especially if the price will be awfully close to the price of other 400cc. Currently this peice sits at 290k+ while the cf moto 450 srs is at 289k. The ninja 500 is at 300k plus and the rs 457 is at 358k. And im sure this bike will get more expensive because of additional features maybe this version will go up to 320k.

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea there are faster bikes for close to the same price, I just like what we are getting out of the r3

[@jessemeanlt1]

I like the 2024 style better. Yamaha been dropping the ball with get rid of the r6. Then the disappointment of r7 and r9. Then no more street legal r1.

[@ScoutsOut]

I agree they should be keeping the r6 and r1, they are both amazing track bikes

[@alexe5683]

Did you even break in the motor?

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea I varied RPMs throughout the video

[@patrickcallender4188]

I think you would not be disappointed if you go down a tooth on the front sprocket

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea I was kinda thinking the same thing

[@tshlk]

Middle finger braking? Really?

[@ScoutsOut]

haha yea thats how I do it, I crashed a CBR600 using to many fingers in a panic situation and have learned to only use one finger ever since

[@nlnb4701]

Rs457😂

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea the 457 is dope no doubt

[@chadxlr3978]

I just love how it looks

[@ScoutsOut]

Yea bro it looks so good
