High revving 321cc EU5 engine
With a compression ratio of 11.2:1, double overhead cams (DOHC) and four-valve cylinder heads, the 321cc two-cylinder motor is designed for quick-revving performance and high-rpm efficiency. With a maximum power output of 30.9 kW (42PS) at 10.750 rpm, the R3’s potent EU5 engine delivers thrilling acceleration with an exciting ride and a broad spread of power.
M1 inspired body with Icon Blue colour scheme
Featuring radical bodywork inspired by the race-winning YZR-M1 – and available in a new duo-tone Icon Blue colour scheme – this is the sharpest R3 ever built. The central M1-style air duct gives a pure race-bred look – and with a high overall specification and idealised 50/50 weight distribution, the R3 is ready to thrill you on the road and track.
Aggressive R1-inspired face
With its glaring face, this bike is pure R-Series, and features an aggressive front fairing and a race-type screen inspired by the iconic R1. Dual LED headlights and a central air duct work with the cross-layered fairing panels to maximise cooling airflow for the EU5 engine, making this the most outstanding supersport in the 300cc A2 licence class.
Lightweight A2-license supersport bike
Whether you're an A2 licence rider or someone who wants the ultimate lightweight supersport, the R3 has the technology, performance and style that you're looking for. Developed using the same no-compromise philosophy that goes into every R-Series model, this bike's race-bred DNA is built to thrill.
Slim and lightweight sports chassis
The compact and lightweight chassis is manufactured from high tensile steel tubing that gives an optimum balance of strength and rigidity. For sporty and agile handling characteristics the R3's short wheelbase gives outstanding agility – while the near 50/50 front/rear weight distribution and accessible seat height deliver a confident and balanced ride.
R1 inspired dual LED headlights
The front fairing is equipped with R1-style headlights that underline the R3's strong genetic links with Yamaha’s larger R-Series supersport models. Utilising bright and long-lasting LED technology, the dual headlights produce excellent visibility and illumination with minimal power draw – and give the bike a radical race-bred look.
