Hey all! I hope you enjoyed this video. The Yamaha R3 left me desiring more. While it was good for its time back in the hay days of beginner motorcycles gaining tons of popularity in the mid 2010s, it falls a bit short by today's standards as far as what the competition brings to the table. It does have a decent price tag, but I wouldn't mind a slight uptick in pricing for improvements and innovation. What do you all think? Leave a comment below.
Thank you for watching. Ride safe.

I'm a 17 yr old, and have been dreaming of a beginner sport bike like the Yamaha r3. I have watched multiple videos regarding the R3 and other sport bikes, and this vid was the one that got me entertained the most while also being informed. Great Video.
Glad you found it helpful. Thank you for watching! Ride safe.
You wont be unhappy with the R3 if you know how to shift and stay in the power range.
Good looking bike but I'm a small boy so, I went for xmax. Japan number one. Functionality and practicality
This is probably one of the best review I have ever seen.
This guy is great at explaining and reviewing motorcycles. Excellent video!
Thank you! Ride safe out there on the sporty. 😎
Subscribed because I wanted a Ruroc. Blown away by your quality in videos, please keep it up, you’ll be big! ❤️ Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you so much for watching! They've been great helmets for me so far. Review video will be coming later this year for the EOX vs Atlas 4.0. Ride safe. 😎
I have the 2023 CFMOTO 300NK and I have fun going fast on a slow bike. On I-4 I did top out over 92 and didn't have any issues keeping and passing the flow of traffic.
Nice! Thank you for watching and ride safe. 😎
For feel in the lever I'd give it a 9.0 after 7,000 Miles of ride time on this machine. Work the new breaks in homie.
5:45
Thanks for watching! Ride safe.
Breaks are fine as long as you know how to downshift and break properly.
I hate people who ride a bike for a few miles and talk shit about its capabilities lol.
This video is helping us very clearly and good review god bless bro❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much for the kind words! It's all about helping the community. Thanks for watching and ride safe! 😎
This is taken right by my house!!!He went by my house in the video!!!!😊
Early crew checking in.
Thank you for showing out 💪
Damn that cramped riding feeling Omni, my hips were feeling it just watching you. I can only agree with a few of the comments below...270' crank and a facelift for the R3 is definitely in order.
I've ridden bikes that were more uncomfortable, but a small sport bike really makes me appreciate the machines in my own stable that sit more upright.
270 crank, increased displacement, better display, revised looks. That's a game-winning formula for the R3!
Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎
They just did a facelift in 2019 soo...? lol
@@mindzeyeproductions8560 2019 was half a decade ago. Are you suggesting a facelift from 5 years ago is “recent” ? 🤨
@@Omni_Moto Are motorcycles supposed to change their signature look from year to year? I've never heard of that before.. Usually they stay for a while and its only been JUST 5 years...?
@@mindzeyeproductions8560 I don’t expect an update every year, that’s not what was suggested or implied. The R3 has been mostly the same since it was introduced in 2015 aside from the additions of inverted suspension, standard ABS, and some cosmetic changes.
With more competitive models available at similar prices, it makes sense for Yamaha to update the R3 and improve it.
Is it bad? No.
Is it worthy of a successor? Yes.
Cfmoto is kicking Butts and taking name😊
😂
My wife sat on one and liked the R3 better it was a little lower. She’s 5-7. I like Cfmoto but she is also a Yamaha lady
Just wait for the R4. 451 cc inline 4.
I haven't heard anything about this, but I'd be interested to read more about it. Can you provide a link? Thanks for watching!
I woods also LOVE to see that bike become reality. How about one of those trendy 3cyl at 450cc? An entry level 3cyl fully faired super sport bike to compete with the ninja 4r
Can you do a ride on the new 2024 Honda car 300R please and thank you
I have a few other bikes on my list to try to get done before the season ends here and one of the Honda 300s is on my list. Stay tuned! Thanks for watching.
W vid
Awesome review! The Yamaha R3 seems like a fantastic choice for beginners. We sent you an email, take a look.
new sub here 💯
Thank you for watching! Ride safe. 😎
never rode a bike like over 20mph,
Do u think its a good bike to buy and learn to drive on it aswell? And keep it ofcourse for a good time
Absolutely! The R3 can help tremendously with giving you the confidence to get started on 2-wheels. If you hold onto it, it can greatly reward you with understanding how to truly harness it's minimal power while getting the most out of it and using 100% of the machine.
Don't ride outside of your limits, but use the motorcycle to help you test those limits and find out how capable you are.
@@Omni_Motothanks man, ive gotten more and more info on the r 3 and ninja 400, probably going to go for the r3, thank you!
I wanna get my first motorcycle but I wanted a Harley BUT they are more expensive then sport bikes so I was just wondering beside the r3 what other sport bikes do you recommend?
Hey there! Kawasaki Z500, Honda CB300R, or a low displacement dual-sport works well for beginner motorcycle. You can check out some of the other videos on my channel including the Z500 to see what might suit you better for what you're looking to accomplish. Thank you for watching and ride safe. 😎
You should check out the buell xb9. their dirt cheap and use the Harley 883 sportster engine but it is hopped up for more power and rpm but in a sport bike that's small and very nimble. I love my x1 but the 1200cc versions are no beginner bike.
The 883 sportsters are cheap too and that engine is a great beginner power wise.
Great video even better yo mamma joke!
Great comment, thank you for watching. Ride safe! 😎
i get 30km/L city and highway riding.
How does this compare to the CF moto 300ss or nk300
Great question. The 300 platform from CF is a single cylinder that is more akin to being compared to a Honda 300(Rebel 300, CB300R, etc.). The 300cc machines have a relatively low power output (~30 horsepower) compared to the R3, and they don't do quite as well when it comes to interstate travel (65+MPH zones). They are a bit more fuel efficient and lightweight since they are lower CC, but they do have some imbalance that makes them vibrate quite a bite compared to the 2-cyl engine of the R3.
Pricing is very attractive on the CF 300cc machines, but they do leave a bit left to be desired as far as power is concerned unless you live in a somewhat dense urban area.
I have some reviews on my channel about the 300SS and the 300NK in the CFMOTO MC reviews playlist. Here's a link! Thanks for watching. th-cam.com/play/PLEwY36ONtI_dp254gUHiyfSJYdvEkmxjZ.html
What are your thoughts on the Alpinestars Bionic Action V2 Jacket? What size do you wear and what are your measurements?
I love mine so far! I fit into the large jacket at 6'1 (185 centimeters) and 185 pounds (84 kilograms). The air flow is amazing and the protection is better than nothing at all. All you should keep in mind is that on extra hot days when you are sweating, it does get a little tough to take it off and put back on because of the material, but other than that, it's been a life-saver this riding season with record breaking temperatures. Thanks for watching! Ride safe. 😎
@@Omni_Moto awesome thanks a lot! I was able to find one to try on and I'm definitely going to get one!! 💪😎👍
@@Snoodl3s3 Don't forget to check out my affiliate links if you purchase one from RevZilla 🙏😭 (I may be financially compensated)
I think that bike would be a blast on a go kart track!
It rips harder than that. Would need longer stretches.
Tiktok live soon?
Potentially. Make sure you have notifications turned on. 😉 Thanks for watching and being here early!
Does the mt 03 have the same engine? Im older and have done the speed .and uncomfortable riding. Now just looking for somewhat cheap way to get bac in the wind.
The MT-03 features the same engine. If you're looking for cheap transportation back and forth with a fun powerplant, the MT-03 should be right up your alley.
Thanks you. @Omni_Moto
Everyone is tired of boring 180* crank parallel twins.
W cfmoto
Tbh it’s going to be the only engine available in due time. (Unless you want a single) As regulations get tightened even further.
@@tahahaider5836i got an aprilia ❤
Hey Omni dude, the R3 is old. Id take a cheap arse CFmoto 450SR-S or the 450NK (cause im old) over the R3. Yamaha needs to give it a bit of Mountain Dew!
Cheers buddy!
Give me a CFMOTO 450 in any capacity over this bike all day. Easy choice!
Do the dew! Cheers 🥂
There is a reason they havent changed it dude. Its a great bike that keeps up just fine with the 400 and 450cc bikes. I outrun my friend on a 500cc Suzuki every time.
Old model in 2024
Some other commenters thought it was good enough for 2024, but I don't share the same sentiment. This bike needs an update! Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎
