New Yamaha YZF-R3 is practical, easygoing and downright fun.

Yamaha’s new YZF-R3 was designed to fill the daunting gap between their popular YZF-R125 and headbanging YZF-R6. If our first ride on the launch in southern Spain is an accurate guide then they have another winner to go alongside the R125.

FuryRC says:

In terms of appearance I just can’t gel with the look of this bike, or some
other new bikes from Yamaha, the front headlights look a bit too square,
the YZF R125 has been given a more plain looking side fairing and a strange
looking nose cone at the front which only decreases the looks of the bike,
the R1 has a lovely body design I’m just not sure if it could be called an
R1 anymore, it is very different from the original in so many ways.

Am i the only one that finds it slightly weird that this bike is about 4700
pound and the r125 is only a little bit less expensive at around 4300-4500
brand new? unless i am missing something here

Personal preference, I prefer the look of the yzf 125.

I’d rather spend a few more hundred pounds and get a mt 07

Frank D says:

More bike than most can handle I love when an Inexperienced rider goes for
an R6 or an R1 makes for some funny video’s
