The Yamaha YZF-R3 will be locally assembled and will be the flagship offering from Yamaha India in our two-wheeler market (barring the CBU motorcycles). The Yamaha R3 belongs to the supersports genre of motorcycles and for this purpose sports a sporty design language.The new Yamaha R3 has been priced at Rs 3.25 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The styling of the Yamaha R3 will please the Indian fraternity who have an affinity to supersport design.Providing firepower is a 321cc displacement liquid-cooled motor. The parallel twin mill pumps out 42PS at 10,750rpm and peak torque of 29.6Nm at 9,000rpm. The only chink in the Yamaha R3’s armoury is the 169kg kerb weight which is on the heftier side and the lack of ABS to keep cost low.
