2017 Yamaha YZF-R3 – Video

Potent Twin-Cylinder Powerplant

Striking Yamaha R-Series Styling
Yamaha supersport-inspired styling with a full fairing in a chassis that makes it perfect for first time rider—or experienced riders who prefer a lightweight, nimble machine. And three beautiful coloring options are available which means there is a color choice that is right for you.

Advanced Engine Design
Forged pistons—just like the R1 and R6—are very lightweight while providing exceptional strength. And innovative Yamaha features like the offset cylinders reduce friction for more power.

 

 

Balanced Sportbike Ergonomics
The YZF-R3 features clip-on handlebars and a riding position that provides a great balance of comfort and sporty riding position.

Compact, Confident Rider Seating
With a flat seat design and a seat height of only 30.7 inches on the YZF-R3, it’s easy to get both feet firmly on the ground and inspire confidence, especially for beginner riders.

New ABS-Equipped Model Available
For 2017, the YZF-R3 offers the option of an ABS model to support the hydraulic disk braking system. The antilock braking system boosts rider confidence by preventing wheel lock-ups in reduced-traction conditions.
