- See how the R3 handles the mountains after this highway run!
• Does the R3 have enoug...
The R3 is a massively popular motorcycle for riders first starting out in the motorcycle space. It's a great beginner bike to be sure but a question I see a lot is, "Is the 321cc engine powerful enough to commute on the highway with?". Well, I only know one way of finding that out and it's taking this 2020 Yamaha R3 that I'm borrowing and spend all day riding on the highway. Let's see how she holds up!

I have a 2015 R3 that I’ve put 32,000 miles on. I live in Houston and I’ve taken the R3 all the way to Colorado Springs and back. It’s a phenomenal bike and it can definitely handle the stress of highway traffic. I’ve even been able to get mine up to 113MPH. I love my R3 and I don’t plan on selling it, even when I upgrade.
Checking up 2 years later how is the r3 handling and how many miles?
^ What this guy said give us an update foo
@@kaideleon5727 what they said^
@@Fazer1971 yeah^^ also how tall are you???
@@denkii I'm 5'10
I can tell you guys how it handles the freeway/constant high Rpms.
Just like any modern engine that's designed for high rpm in a street bike.
If there's enough oil and coolant in it and those are on operation temperature, you basically cannot damage/destroy the engine.
Even sitting constantly on the limiter say riding constant 100miles/hour, it would just laugh at you and say :give me more fuel bro and let's go!
If you treat your bike right it'll just be fine.
@Terms and Disagreement well it depends where you live and ride.
Also I was referring to the R3 not to bigger bikes.
On a Hayabusa it wouldn't be possible to "cruise" for that long on the limiter lol..
But technologically it is possible.
I tested this on multiple vehicles.
One Mazda mx5 first gen.,2k trip almost constantly on the limiter, the car was just fine.
The other one was a 2013 Honda cb 125.
Bought it brand new ,broken in carefully, then I was riding it pinned for two years and 12500 kms.(highway,city)
The bike had no issues at all,didn't even use oil.Granted the the top speed of that was 105 km/h so 60mph.
Unreal how good modern engines are 🤟
I’m gonna call bull on that one... had a friend who rode a 650... trying to keep up with my bike and other 600cc supersports... cause him to overheat after 10-15 mins of none stop limiter ...
No engine likes that and you’ll find out soon enough something will break that should have lasted you 200k miles will live maybe a 1/4 of that
@@Texarmageddon As you can see on my previous reply I tested it out on two different occasions. This was my experience, but there will be exceptions. There are a lot of factors.
Outside temp, coolant levels,oil level,quality, and temp.
This only works if you really take care of the engine. Always using the highest spec oil,and regular oil changes.
Your friend might have gotten the bike second hand and it could have been abused previously with old oil,or low levels,cold high revs,bad fuel etc.
Actually there was a long term test of Mobil 1 motor oil in the US.
Many years ago,they bought a brand new BMW 325i and put it on the dyno.
They ran the car in, then used it with all possible revs,also on the limiter, high revs for highway use and lower range for the city,to copy all possible circumstances.The car ran constantly, they only stopped for fuel,and the regular scheduled service,using Mobil 1 oil.The car ran 1.000 000 miles!(1.6m kms)
Then they took it apart and inspected the wear and tear of the engine.
Well,everything was within specs,no significant damage was registered!
That is why I said it is possible to use something hard and still have it working great ,if it gets the deserved care and services.
@Terms and Disagreement ok gotcha bro ✌
@@Texarmageddon To be fair though, 650cc's are usually street oriented bikes, which are not designed to run at high RPMs, since they are designed more for torque & producing power lower in the powerband.
Supersports on the other hand don't have much power until you get past the 8-9k RPM mark, so manufacturers design the engine/coolant/oil systems to handle that amount of stress.
CC's isn't everything, the intended purpose of the bike plays a lot into it's performance.
It's a "Kyle" edition because Kyles are known for drinking Monster and being crazy
Aman Shaikh and punching that damned drywall
Aman Shaikh I was thinking that
Anyone on a 300 cc wouldn’t know what that means
Did you mean X Æ A-12 ?
K I L L
I have a 2017 R3 since 2018 and I gotta say to newer riders or riders in general, it was worth every penny! All of my friends were/are getting higher cc bikes (ex: 600cc) but I'm over here having a blast with my R3, trust me it's worth it
Good to know. Thanks for the endorsement.
How is the posture on the r3 for the back ?
@@Atimoz it’s not too aggressive, but you can lean forward so the wind isn’t too harsh on you. It’s decent but nothing like a naked bike
I had a GSX-R 250 (JDM) back in the day, and it was an absolute blast to drive on the smaller roads. Similar performance to the R3 (45 hp, 112 MPH, but ~46 lb lighter).
It had everything the much bigger bikes had, 4 cylinders, water cooling, 16 valves, MASSIVE brakes for its size (2x 276mm with 4-pot calipers) and full fairing, but in an ultra-small package. One finger on the brake was plenty for normal braking, and 2 would get you all the stopping power you could ever want. 4 fingers would be suicide!
It was a short-stroke engine though, so it would need revs like you would not believe. 7K to do 50 in 6th, and 5K would quickly fry the spark plugs, so it had to be kept above 6K when moving. It felt like a much bigger bike at 13-16K, and would redline at 17K. :)
It was very small though, and even though I'm "only" 5'8, there was no doubt that it was designed for the Japanese market only. To get tucket behind the screen, I had to really bend down and put my elbows on my knees.
The cinematography is off the charts! You weaving in and out of traffic in that 1 shot was dope!
I ride my yamaha yzf r125 on the highway so your r3 should be more than fine.
Can you ride a r125 for long periods of time?
On the highways
@@illuforce sure but you should keep it around 100km/h because the engine could be damaged if you redline it (133km/h) for too long.
@@illuforce i used to have yzfr125 back when i was 16. The bike can handle all you give to it. Never had to even adjust the valvels. Just keep changing the oil and the bike will go long way :)
Julian Mes yea that’s overly stressing the 125 my friends
I've been riding a 2015 R3 for almost 2 years now, honestly, it has more than enough GO on the freeway, and super comfortable. I constantly have to be mindful of not go too fast, way too easy to get a ticket riding this thing.
I love how this guy doesn't sit there and talk about nothing in first person camera like other people. Props bro we need more people like you who do outside view angles where we can actually see the bike
Its way harder doe most people film alone for this u need at least 2
Dude I've ridden an R3 for 2 weeks! took it on the highway and a dude who rides a 600 told me that the R3 is performing like a 600. I think we should show more appreciation for these 300cc bikes. In Jamaica we are used to 150, 200 and 250cc so when a 300 Japanese bike is introduced that's like GOLD for us.
I'm glad you are excited about a 300 but an r3 will never perform like a 600. Even the 600 twins out perform these a2 bikes by a noticeable amount.
I have a 2015 R3. I ride it everyday. I live in L.A. so I'm always on the freeway and I do canyon runs. It handles both just fine.
I would love to see more videos like this. I do a lot of highway commuting to get to work and I currently have a 2015 yamaha R3 and I absolutely love it. I bought it brand new and have about 15K miles on it and I've had absolutely ZERO issues other than regular maintenance but I'm thinking of upgrading to a bigger bike but no one seems to give reviews about sport bikes on the highway
that weaving thru traffic shot was gorgeous 🖤🖤
I’m glad to know that the R3 has good overtake power on the highway. Wanted to see it in practice!
I’ve ridden all over the PNW with my 2020 R3. I’ve been through Seattle, Portland, Eugene, up the mountain pass to Bend. Hits 70-85MPH easily, 7,500-8,000RPM’s at brisk paces. I’ve topped it at 114MPH a few of times. I love this little bike, it’s my first, and I don’t need to be mobbing down the highway at 140MPH+. Going to ditch the Yoshimura R77 slip-on for a Toce full system, and TST WORX Pack. I can’t wait for track days. This bike is confidence inspiring, and so much freaking fun in the corners and around the city streets.
Thanks so much for posting this video, I’m sold of the 2020 R3 now instead of an older model. You really made my day with this upload, I’m liked and subscribed and ready to see what other great quality videos you put out next. Bless up! ✨💯💜🏍💨
Oh yeah. I'm one of the many that asked for this video. Much appreciated. Awesome editing, shots, commentary etc...
Thanks Chase!
LOVE your videos Chase! Thank you.
I have been hoping to find a vid like this, definitely going to swing in the R3's direction now for first bike. I dont highway alot, like i work 2km from home but to get anywhere nice is about 2 hours or so away and this seems perfect
Love my 2018 R3 even with me being 270lbs and 6ft she takes everything with ease! An amazing bike the r3 is!
This is the comment I’ve been looking for my whole life, nice to know that as a heavier guy my weight wouldn’t effect a smaller displacement bike... thank you.
That is one thing concerning me too. I'm 230lbs. Its good to know I can ride it.
Great comment, what I've been waiting for. Now I know at 5'11" 160lbs the R3 will be great for me.
im 6-5 300lbs and been waiting to hear input from a heavier rider that owns one of these . im a beginner and when im out looking at bikes , i inquire about the r3 and the ninja 400 and most folks are steering me towards the mt07/mt09/xrs900 market stating that those lower cc bikes wouldnt be able to put out enough power. this comment gives me a little more to think about now
I'm 511 320 pounds And a buddy of mine used to have a little 50CC Honda dirt bike that I used to be able to pop wheelies on... This was probably 20 years ago but I was still probably no less than 280 pounds..
wow your 3ed person shots are great!
man, the way you cruising on the road...makes me wanna buy the r3 right now
watching this video 4 years later becuz im looking into a 2024 r3, i notice and recognized and is so wild to me ive watched this channel a few times and never noticed this... i dont know if its the same area in the new videos. im located in douglasville and i go to kennesaw decently often and recognized the roads. this video is very helpfully for multiple reasons. THANK YOU
I rode my 2015 R3 from Chula Vista to LA and back, that’s about 280 miles round trip and it was nice. LA rush hour traffic was nothing with that bike, lane splitting was fun. Also I forgot to add I had a passenger for the whole time too.
It always works. If I don't hit that like button, Chase never resumes with the video.
Lovely video.I was confused about buying a 2023 MT 03 but now all my doubts r cleared. Love from India:)
Yeah Thanks for the R3 highway test👌🏍️
Had mine for almost a year now, love it all around. Little quirks like no where to mount a phone mount, weak battery life, and limited aftermarket parts but overall I love it.
I mounted a ram long arm just in front of the gas tank. You kinda have push the plastic back a tiny bit to access the bolt, but it mounted perfectly and sits just shy of getting in the way of the steering at all, and puts itself in the perfect position for a tuck too.
Makes me miss my 2018 r3 :/ beautiful bike. Especially for beginners
Great video, inspiring!👍
I drive a X Max 300 now, but looking to upgrade to the Yamaha R3. Thanks for the vid.
I took my 2021 on the highway and man that thing ran .. I did some mods to it straight pipe muffler k&n air filter .. on the highway this thing sounds like a beast
Nice vid! I have a 2015 R3. So jealous of the updated fairrings, inverted forks and beautiful triple tree plate.
So I “downgraded” from my Honda CBR650RR to an R3. I love both bikes. I don’t miss the brutal ergos on my previous sportbikes. The R3 is more than capable on a highway especially after some mods like a full exhaust, dynojet and ECU flash.
I do miss the acceleration and torque of my Inline4 600 vs my parallel twin 321cc. If I get a new bike and go up going to a PTwin 400 or 650 isn’t much of a huge upgrade really. It’d have to be a 700 like an MT07 or Tenere which I am considering. I also like the CB650R which is a bit of an oddball. It’s a midsize displacment but 4 cylinders which used to be more common than the now ubiquitous ParallelTwins and V-Twins.
For now, I’ll stay on my R3. I keep my wishlist updated. If/when I upgrade it’s going to be my first naked or adventure bike I think. Getting old now and time to move on from sport bikes. 🙂
My 2015 hits about 110mph top speed on freeway. Plenty fast enough. But passing is a bit different story. At high RPMs it can struggle if you're trying to overtake quickly. That said, I've had mine on the track and on the twisties and I keep up with most 600's and 1000's (other than in the straights). It's a really awesome little bike and you will become a better rider for riding it if you put in the time and effort, especially on the track.
I’ve had everything from 750s to 1300 big twins and this motorcycle will be my next bike.
That R3 looks great for the traffic top 1 chase 😀🏍️. From north of England Uk
Dude that swerve in swerve out close to the end was nice
Worth a few replays: 8:33
I was actually planning to get a version 2 r3 but ended up with version 1. Anyhow, it still runs great at almost 50000 kilometers. What I like about it is that, i dont have stress getting parts because components of the new version still fit version 1, only the fairings, brakes and front suspension are different.
Wow - excellent video - I am running out of reasons not to buy the R3 over the next tiered/600cc bikes!
Making me want one even more!!! Thanks for the great content.
I got one that's fixing to be for sale... lol
@@peterblt942 -Damn, don't stop there. Tell us why... or did your "friends" pick on you, did you out grow it?
@@salskars6637 haha. I just dont ride it as much anymore. It's been a great bike. But I ride my mt-10 most of the time and no use in the r3 just sitting there. Somebody needs to enjoy it.
@@peterblt942 - Exactly. Sell it this spring to an aspiring rider.
@@peterblt942 I'll take it in a few months. I'm serious. Where do you live?
Glad you guys have highways my country have 3 highways and they are trash too
I was really like wow, this looks like Atlanta. Then you mentioned it
Ready For The 2021 R3!!! Test Lets Goooo
I almost wanna go ride my wife's R3 right now and not my R6 lol
J & Shay imagine passing an R6 on a racetrack on a R3
@@hathaway.1166 depends who's riding it lol
Looks like the simple addition of a 'double bubble' windscreen would dramatically add to this gem of a small displacement motorcycle...Yamaha Accessory Catalogue shows one available.
Going to look at a Monster Edition in 2 days. Nice looking bike.
Dope cinematics
I have 19 bike in my collection, I’ve been riding for 18 years… the R3 is more than enough for commuting and some type of fun in corners.
Highway run in Atlanta! Brave man
Best review of this bike, so far.. Not really bad for a 321cc, I must say.
Can we get a wheelie test?! Great video!
Lol that pass you did 3/4 in seemed to be more strain free then my 900 cc Vulcan.
Love my R3
Imagine this little bike having a 100+ hp that would be bloody sweet for track/commuting/touring.Already it's a bloody sweet machine,I rode my r3 for like 1000 kms (18+hrs approx) straight with some breaks here and there and it handled effortless.Everytime this Reminds me of how reliable this japanese motorbike really is.
I remember my first bike. Sadly... 09 Buell Blast. 500cc single. Yeah it's a good first bike. But in Iowa when you live in the county and every town is 30min away minimum. It sucked butt. Full throttle going 70mph. Couldn't pass anything at all. I do miss it though. It was fun to ride around town. Besides the lawnmower exhaust sound
Thanks for this. I will be getting the MT 03 as my first bike, which is just the baked version of the R3
I love the ninja 400 and the z400. The mods are easy to do. I was able to wire in extra lights usb charging sockets. New windshields, easy to do oil change.
Dont own an R3 but it looks good if your in Europe and dont plan to do much mods.
thats the bike i have except i have the 2021 and ride it doing top speed for a good while and it runs amazing
So much fun with easy handling and of course no engine heat! I would not ask for more
I got the mt03 2021 and I love the 🏍
For some reason, the music you had playing had me just nodding my head like yo this is so fresh yo.
Even my less powerful BMW G310R does fine on Swiss highways (75 mph/120kmh)
@Terms and Disagreement Well i'm 52 kg / 115lbs lol
so do my cbr250r and like 60 kgs
wish canada got that nice bwm :(
I’m considering the BMW G310R for my first bike, mostly commuting to work. 65MPH-80MPH would be ideal speed. I live 10-12 mins from work mostly highway. I weigh 155lbs is that reasonable for this bike?
@@suyashtilak8371 where do you live? I believe that bike is only for indonesian, thailand and japanese market.
I've made a couple of vids about this. It is a very subjective topic - some people think a grom is fine for the freeway, and some people think you need a litre bike. I rode the R3 for a few months, pretty much all freeway commuting and ended up selling it because it just isn't made for freeway cruising. Yes it can handle it, but there are so many better options if all your saddle time is going to be spent over 100 km/h
I laid down my r3 going 60 and still love and ride it
How?
I drove mine on a 600 mile road trip and it was perfectly find took it to the shop to make sure the bike was all well and had no issues besides needing a oil change
Ecu tune and cams that thing would be a holy Grail power to weight ratio.
Heck yes it is great on highway. I am 5’5 so I don’t even tuck and get no windblast. Just be mindful what gear you are in but yes I can cruise at 85 rock solid. Most people don’t even know it is a 300. 56 mpg and telepathic steering make it awesome.
I ride mine around 80 miles on i75 frequently for work, and it does just fine
I got my r3 to 115 on the highway I guess because I’m that small lol, I’m 5ft 2in and 145lbs. Love this bike. 😍
I'd rather it be at or below 1/3 of the max RPM vs. that of half. With my R6 a lot of my riding was just on long, straight, and open highway with no traffic. I'd stay around 75-85mph in 6th just under 8k, and to me that's too high. I'm right at the start of the powerband in the top gear, pulling a lot more HP than I would had I been at 4-5k RPM where I'd prefer to be. Sound was also another complaint I had with that bike at cruising speeds.Yes, I bought it originally for the sound it makes, but it also became the death of it being too loud.
Now with my 999, I can't even get into 6th going at 65-75 because it feels like it wants to lug at those speeds due to the RPM being so low. I love that. I can be in third or fourth gear, be at around 4k RPM and the engine just purrs, makes low noise, and is comfortable to sit on. I could do this on any 1L bike though but the point is I'm not revving the piss out of it for extended periods of time. No matter how good it stands up during one ride, that durability will always diminish, even with more frequent fluid changes.
I would always advise against a sub 500cc bike to be used as a commuter because they just do not cruise as well as they should. For city riding where your average speed is 45 or lower (average for no less than 1 hour including all potential stops along your way), sure it'll work, but once you start getting to average speeds of 55mph and above, you really benefit a lot more with higher displacement.
This. So many people get upset when you tell them an R3 isn't suited for the freeway. I rode it for a few months and it did "fine" but I hated that it was almost at its upper limit the whole time, with nothing left in the tank to power out of sticky situations or overtake at pace.
Your comment needs to be higher up for more people to see.
did London (uk) to Paris (fr) 5/6hours no problem only stopped for fuel 2 times (before boring the euro tunnel and just before arriving at paris .. super comfortable
i ride my r3 here in the philippines every single day to work
3:58 that was sweet asf
I have 23 R3 and it shreds. Yeah I'm not doing 150 or anything but it cruises just fine at 90-95. It goes faster but that's when you start pushing it and really having to tuck down. I rode for about an hour on the interstate at between 80-95 with no issues
Hope you can do a comparison from that bike to the new mt-03 and see the differences
Dope vid bro, can’t wait to start riding 🙌🏻purchasing my🥇st R3, within the next 4months 🥳…. question are those kicks for riding ? If so which ones are they ? I like that they look like regular sneakers
I did a demo ride on a 2020 R3 a few weeks ago, and I'm anxious to sell my 2009 Concours14 in order to pick up an R3. Big change, but the R3 will definitely be better for commuting and riding the local backroads, and even short trips. The 688-pound Concours14 is a freeway missile for sure, but it's a bit of a bulky pig in most other situations. I still have to fix up my 2003 BMW R1150RT-P so I have a comfortable touring bike for long-distance trips and rallies. I've been riding since 1989, averaging over 10k miles per year since 2002, and my 51 year old body (with 30" inseam) is ready to get back on a smaller bike for most jobs. Many say the 300-class are "beginner bikes" but this experienced rider knows the right tool for the job when I see it. Actually, I would argue that until recently, 250-400cc bikes were NOT beginner bikes, as you needed to be in just the right gear to stay in the powerband, and that the torquier 500cc twins were better-suited for beginners. Nowadays, the light weight and better fuel delivery makes the smaller bikes more capable all around. And then there's the old adage: "it's more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than to ride a fast bike slow." It's gonna be so much more fun wringing the neck of an R3 through my local twisty roads than tiptoeing in 2nd gear on the C14. Anyone want to buy a well-sorted 2009 Concours14?
I can see the point of a Concours, not so much a 'Busa or ZX14. Those big pigs seem pointless, when you can have a GSXR1000 or ZX10 that are just as fast and 100 pounds lighter. Back to your Concours, is your BMW that much better? But yes, I can see having a smaller bike for everyday around town use. Have you tried a Ninja 400, though?
@@captainamerica9353 hi I want to ask a question newbies to biking so am really hoping to get a bike am really in love with the R7 buh doing my finding I heard It can go on long tour why can’t?
And what bike do you think will be comfortable in sitting position and that won’t be cost too much for a long distance riding since they said r7 can’t go on long distance and I don’t know why
Than you
@@_hm-te7pg , I have not seen or ridden an R7, but have years of riding experience. I think it would make a good all around bike. They are not too expensive, not crazy fast, but look "sporty" and have plenty of power for freeway riding. What do you ride now?
@@captainamerica9353 oh great thank you the issues is just that you will some people here that will say ok the bike is good and some will say no it’s not and it’s confusing I really like the r7 just want to get it for school and cruising only not for track and be able To go from state to state on highway I don’t have a bike yet buh I can try to ride not really good in riding that what makes me come here to do some findings about it. Am really wishing just to have two which is r3 and r7 I heard the r3 is comfortable when riding it for long distance cause of how the seat was placed.
I have a 2015 r3..... A lil vibro on the pegs. A bit of wind slop at times, but not bad across Canada. Could use a 20 liter tank.
Hey Chase, it's the Kyle edition because Kyles always drink Monster Energy before riding with their BROS... also i'm assuming the R3 handles the highway well because 6th gear is an overdrive gear
Try install Sc project crt full system on that bike it would a whole a lot difference and you will start to love it even more and lower the handle bar to make it sportier
Where did you get that livery from!? It's gorgeous!
I’ve taken a Suzuki gsx125 to the highway and it did brilliant.
So I’m about 6’2 and 247 lbs said that having had a R3 for my first bike I can say yes it can do the high way. But I never liked it every time I merged on or changed lanes it felt like a absolute dog. Now in the video chase says the bike felt stable and he wasn’t straining the engine. The way I would describe the R3 on the high way is it always felt like the bike was on stilts and that the engine was gonna go bang. I feel part of this is because I was a bit to big for the R3. Only had the bike 6 months definitely recommend it for a first bike but once you upgrade to something else you won’t look back.
Love the video. Reminds me I need to get a tail tidy lol
All facts
In southeast asia even 90-100cc can handle highways reving almost behind or over the redline in long rides.
Hey Chase. Yamaha released the MT-03 in the USA this month (February) . Can you do a first ride for us, man. I’d gladly go find one myself but I live in the frigid state of New York.
A windscreen and a front and rear sprocket swap and your good to go on the interstate...to be exact swap to a 15t front and a 41r and this will keep your stock chain length...
I thought the vid just proved the R3 doesn't need a swap. It's good to go.
You should try dealing with stop and go traffic going from Hudson Bridge to 75N to 75/85N to 85N to left on Chamblee/Tucker RD. to right on Buford to left on Chamblee/Dunwoody RD to Peachtree 141S/N. I make that trip to work which I hit the highway at about 1715 (5:15pm) just so I can try to be at work by 1830 (6:30pm) because my shift starts at 1900 (7:00pm).
I have ridden my cbr 250 from St. Louis MO to Dallas TX. R3 can do it easily.
Cool vid, love the bike but hate the floppy indicators. 😜
A consent up and down on the throttle (RPM)...I'm so glad I paid cash for my Ninja 400 2019 with abs...has lot's of power and I don't have to run the piss out of it to pass or stay ahead of traffic...still the R3 is a great small bike for newbies...and is plenty for the mountains...but for the money I would rather have the 400 Ninja...
Agreed, I bought both and ended up selling the R3 as the Ninja is just better for freeway
Full tuck on that bike is when you kick out the passenger pegs and put your feet back on them. Try it, super comfy.
had to put my r3 up for the winter...sad face.

This music reminds me of Earthbound on the NES
Some countries actually ban these bikes on the highway. Motorcycle laws are crazy AF here in the Philippines. They only allow 400CC and up.
I wish we can ride bikes like these on the highway
I'd like to own an R25 someday. 🙏
