Japanese bike maker Yamaha has just made headlines in India by bringing in the much-awaited YZF-R3. The R3 is an entry-level sports bike that promises to be super fun for all riders. It looks like Yamaha has carried on the trend by launching a more-potent-then-ever YZF-R3 in the Indian market. This new pocket rocket from Yamaha has a fuel injected, inline twin engine with a displacement of 321cc and a power output of 42bhp. The bike offers the perfect balance of performance, nimbleness, fun and looks delivering a more than perfect package to the Indian audience.
The bike will compete with the KTM RC 390 and the Kawasaki Ninja 300, but it is priced slightly high at Rs 3.25 lakhs ex-showroom Delhi. The lightweight body, mass centralisation, and an aggressive riding stance will allow the rider to push the bike to the limit without tiring himself/herself much. Commenting on his expectation on the latest offering, Mr. Roy Kurian, Vice President- Sales & Marketing, Yamaha Motor India Sales Pvt. Ltd, said, “The YZF-R3 is a model that takes the R-Series technology and know-how Yamaha has accumulated since the original YZF-R1 and brings the world of the “YZF” lineup to the 320cc displacement class. The YZF-R3 is expected to attract younger racing enthusiasts looking for their first racing bike. Currently the Supersports segment (250cc to 600cc) is doing around 1000 bikes a month and our plan is to attain a 20% market share in the segment.”
