I was really torn between getting a ninja 400 or a r3 but I talked it over with the wife and we agreed a puppy was the best bang for buck😕

Just bought a blue 2019 Model as my first bike. Put 800 Miles on it in like 3 weeks, I love it so much. Bought it without ever having sat on a bike before in my life, havent dropped it so far and Ive honestly gotten really good at riding. This channel was part of what helped me finally pull the trigger and I couldnt be happier. Thanks, Yam. Ride safe everyone👌🏼

I started on the R3 and then got a GSX 600. I’m glad I started on the R3 and made mistakes on this forgiving bike. Great ride

Ah yes, my daily dose of internet

“So you want a r3?” Starts taking about other bikes that are not a r3

I purchased my 2019 R3 in March, my first bike. It’s been a great experience so far. Recommend it to anyone...

A 2017 R3 is my first bike. Absolutely loving it, along with it's cheap insurance and payment. It still has plenty of beans to be had, and inspires confidence immediately. Thanks for the awesome content as always

Next video: r1 vs grom

I just passed my MSF course over the weekend and I am looking at getting an R3, thanks for the info Papa Yam!

That’s how I found your channel. I was googling for a how to video on my brand new r3 back in 2015 and google recommended your video. you were the first motovlogger I watched. I didn’t even know motovlogging existed. But I got hooked man and here I am still watching 5 long years later.

I absolutely love my 2020 R3! I’ve completely updated this bike. Got some carbon fiber parts, TST turn signals, fender eliminator, swapped that ugly gray for blue/black, and of course rocking the Yoshimura R77. It’s the best small displacement motorcycle you can get. Can’t wait to install the TST WORX Pack and enjoy some track days! My next bike will be a 2020 BMW S1000RR and I’m keeping the R3 for commuting. 👌🏼

I’d love to buy a new R3, but being the squid I am I can’t afford it. *whips in poor*

This video needs to be 10 seconds, and say, GET IT NOW! best decision I've ever made

Just brought home one and I absolutely love it as my beginner bike!!

R3 kinda is the midpoint of both quality, and reliability. Then comes the busa

5.5 seconds to 60..not with me on it..Stock to..just clocked 82k miles..still going strong with standard exhaust on it..unbelievably machine & never let me down..Big Up Yamaha & You Jammy Noob..Big Love from the UK..!! ✌🏻

GODDAMN IT YAMMIE. I JUST GOT MY R3 5HRS AGO AND NOW YOU PUT THIS VIDEO OUT!!!!!

One good thing about the r3 you can ride it aggressively, it got cheap parts, then once you get comfy with your riding skills you can slowly go up to a 600 or a 1000cc. You’ll be shock how almost same you ride a 300cc to a 1000cc cycle

Papa Yam! I finally did it after watching you for the past few months and have become a yammie noob myself, got an R3 last night. Thank you for such an in depth review! The MSF course is scheduled for next month. Now I'm off to figure out how to work the machine

Yammie, you my dude have persuaded me to take the jump onto a 2 wheeled death machine while being called a "temporary australian" for riding a motorbike. After a year or so of watching your videos I just recently bought myself a 2016 yamaha r3. Thank you for all your wise words.

Tried out the MT03 - loved it, they are putting it together and will be mine soon :)

My one big takeaway from all this is that the ninja 400 is a much better replacement for the old ninja 500 than the ninja 650 could hope to be.

Uhhhhh got one on Saturday to end my 🦑 hiatus. Haven’t been on a bike in years, but now I’ve got a 2020 Moto GP edition, all “Monstered” out, so I could make believe I’m Rossi as I commute to work. OoOoOoOoH me likes ALOT!!!!! 😎

Papa Yam, are you leaving the CB300R out on purpose from your content? I am dying to see your review on that sweet little gem. Please, do not let us wait too long. Love the channel.

The 15,16 R3 has another common fault,the gear selector, it wasn’t a clutch related issue. When shifting it wouldn’t recognise any gears resulting in total loss of power apart from that 18 all issues ironed out and is a dream

Hi Papa Yam, been following you since I'm still a bikeless bro. Until I saved up from overtime, bit the bullet and bought my first bike, an R25, after watching all of your early videos. Hell, I also bought a Packtalk Bold and an Arai helmet after watching your videos as well! 2 years of riding later, and I couldn't thank you enough. It's plenty fast for city ride, soo forgiving, sips fuel, screams beautifully at high rpm. Well, I dropped it a couple of times in the beginning, snapped a lever, broke a footpeg, but surely it taught me a lot things on riding a bike. Been thinking of trading it in for a 600cc sportbike, but I'm very fond of my R25 now. Thanks Papa Yam for taking me in into this world full of awesome bikes! Much love from Indonesia

I just bought an r3 Saturday I love it 😁

I got new R3 last year. It's pretty compared to the ninja 400, and I really like it, but I think it's important to do some changes after you get it. it actually sounds pretty nice right out of the box, but the exhaust isn't exactly pretty. MAKE SURE YOU GET A DIFFERENT THROTTLE TUBE. It will change the ride. trust me. But honestly Really glad that I bought it. Can't wait to move on to the R6

I wish Yamaha made an r4. Reason being in my country, the Philippines, enforcers are more strict towards adding mods to motorcycles below 400cc. Especially when it comes to the exhaust.

I am an oldish man owning an r125 awaiting work. It wont start. I am dreaming of one of those naked ones. It hurts my heart with longing to see those beautiful clips of riding. Love this.

In Japan, the R25 is also quite popular. It just has 8 HP less but doesn't need an annual inspection. Love those bikes!

Back in the 70's, Yamaha made an R5: 2 cylinder 2-stroke, 35 horsepower, about 350 pounds. Not a cruiser, buzzed like crazy, but it was quick.

I was talking to an R1 rider at work and he told me about a dealership down in Orange County that will finance just about anyone. Checked out their R3s and applied for financing and now this video pops up? Too much of a coincidence. Taking this as a sign.

“Just shove it up your nose and let it rip”-yammie noob 2020

Had no idea that photo was Henning. The internet remembers.

Loving my all black 2020 R3, thanks Yammie for helping me decide!

Just bought my 2016 R3, and it’s by far the best bike I’ve been on. Thanks Papa Yam.

Yes your videos are one of the reasons I bought a R3 for my wife

The previous gen R3 was lit 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

I have an extremely important question. Who was that brunette with curly hairs?

Picking mine up on Wednesday, brand new rider. Im super excited but hella nervous lol

Dude thank you for all your videos! Finally pulled the trigger on an R6 (used to ride and a 300 just get too slow). Keep em coming!

I bought my 2020 R3 last month. I take my BRC next week. Wish me luck, squids.

No I want a Turbo Bussssssa!

can yall pray for me, I just found a 2019 r3 for $1800 Let us pray to our lord's papa Yam and Rossi that the guy checking it out before me does not buy it. Please I need all of the might of the squid army to help me

I’ve learned a lot from my R3 BUUT I cannot lie.. I did fiend for more power & the lovely sound of 3 or 4 cyl. Even though I did upgrade, good ol reliable is still in the lineup 👍🏽

PAPA YAM! I just bought a R3 today! Thanks to your blessings of informations, tho may e I shoulda bought a busa 😂

I've been a licensed motorcycle rider since 1989, averaging over 10k miles/year since 2003, currently riding a 2009 Concours14. I took a short test ride on a 2020 R3 last week and I want one so bad, I'm considering selling my Concours14. I still have to get my 2003 BMW R1150RT-P running reliably so I can still pack up the kitchen sink and go on long highway trips and Iron Butt rides, but the R3 will be awesome for everything else, from commuting to local twisty roads to weekend trips to the mountains. I'm 51, and a smaller lighter bike is becoming very appealing for regular use; the 688-pound Concours is a king on the highway, but it's a pig of a bike for maneuvering and parking in the city, and a beast to toss around through tight twisty roads. The Beemer and an R3 in the stable should cover all the bases except dirt roads.

Just bought one today, love it!

When will you finally reveal the new giveaway bikes? Waiting desperately here papa yam

It seems there's a competition of which to get R3 vs Ninja 400 ... I'm leaning towards the 400, well because it says "Ninja" haha. And like how it sits more upright. But then started seeing people say it has issues with false neutrals between gears, and having to replace the clutch every few months. Any knowledge on this?

I haven't even got my endorsement yet. I just only started getting into motorcycles within the last couple weeks and I'm going to look at a 2019 R3 tomorrow for only $3,100

i love this channel watch every day regularly and am taking my msf on the 29th and 30th and its all because of you papa yam. im a texas native also and love the content cant get enough and im now getting an r3 so thank you so much.

CBR500R all the way, perfect amount of power and aftermarket support, I've slapped some raised rear sets and lowered clip-ons on mine and I'm absolutely in love with it.

I'm 15 and lookin at bikes. This is the only bike my dad might get me

Y’all did a great job with this. Kudos

Been riding all My life So far I love my little Baba devil

Got my yzf r3 last 2019. Thank for the reviews papa yam

I might be doing this backwards- My first street bike is a Gixxer 1000 (K5), now I'm looking for something a little more comfortable/ reliable. The Gixxer is awesome, on a smooth open road. It's no fun around town or in traffic, it's complicated, everything is expensive, the service intervals are every single time you look at it, and mine is like "afraid to scratch the tank" condition. My second bike will be more of a beater, probably a SV650. Too bad $3500 Busas aren't really a thing anymore.

Your vids legit cure depression

What a coincidence. I was just thinking about getting an r3 sometime in the near future.

Just got home from my first ride on the 2020 r3 to work and back!!! First night ride this morning too I’m really loving this little monster

Coming from a NMAX 155cc scooter....I absolutely love my Yamaha R3! 321cc will out gun most of the bike's I encounter in my part of the world anyway. LOL

I owe alot of my mechanical intellect to my rebel 500, hands down the best starter bike

I recommend the cbr500r as a first bike. I started on a cbr125 and upgraded to the 500 a year later. I've had the 500 for 4 years now and still love it. It has enough power to do whatever you want and is tame enough for new riders to learn on

My first bike was a 92 Suzuki Katana 600 and I could really feel it go sluggish when I had a passenger on the back. I think it had 84 or 86 HP.

_Just realised Suzuki don't have any 300cc street bike options._ _A GSX-S300 would be welcomed_ 😀

Two words. MT 03 2020. You won't be disappointed. Same engine as r3. Great bike, More comfortable

Yep exactly why I started watching you nearly 8 years ago

Got me my first bike a couple of weeks ago and yammie noob video help out a lot to find the right one. Got me a 2019 r3 but I think I paid to much but it's all good I love it.. thanks yammie noob

I see why you like the Duke 390 so much but its hard to seriously consider it when it has so many reliability problems and I'm strapped for cash as it is.

Cool video, I've always loved the R3.

I got my A1 license(125cc) last week and i already crashed and broke my f*cking elbow yesterday. Rip my ktm duke ... I just wanted to get this of my chest as i am currently in the hospital and have nothing else to do.

I’ve had my r3 for about a year and a half now, and I can validate that i am not bored w the bike. If it goes 100+ how can it get boring? Imo unless you’re making money off racing or just a bigger guy there’s no need to guy a 600 or 1000. Learn the fundamentals and maintenance on a r3 and after you get comfortable riding upgrade if you feel the need to. 🤟🏾 all love to my yammie noobs

I have an R1 but i love the R3, my friend has a spiderman custom R3

I finally moved up the ranks of the Noob Dudes and got me my first bike. Where all the squids in AZ??

Cries in Englands 125 limit :(

Well now I feel old since when I started riding in mid 2000's the only option for smaller displacement was the Ninja 2-fiddy

Hahaha the smile at the end.

I bought an 2019 KTM Duke 390. Austrian? Maybe but built in India and the worst thing I’ve ran into is the bolts, screws, etc are garbage. Stripped threads on welded in nuts, and using red lock tight on screws/bolts that hold plastic covers on. Sad cause it’s a great bike.

Fun fact : the 2019 R3 is the worst selling bike across the Asia market

I`m getting the 2020 R3 tomorrow as a first bike....................

I have an r3 and I love her 😍

Its really difficult to buy an r3 here in my place and ive been wanting one for years now 😭😭😭

The rear tire being 140 is a no-no for me

In asian market, they have r15...it is a 150cc bike with vva headblock....the seating position are more aggresive than the r3...super great for track day and the price is not bad at all....you should search it

I really wish Yammie Noob can giveaway motorcycles internationally. Here in the Philippines sports bike are very expensive

amazing video bro

0:45 me af right now

Between r3 and Honda cbr500 I don’t know which one to get plz help one of them will be my first bike

You know how awkward it is watching this next to coworkers and all they hear is shaving balls

I actually bought my r3 in 2016 because of you xD

Hi papa yam yam. You have inspired me to buy a yamaha r3 with your videos thanks papa yam yam

A minute of silence for the guy that stuffed up trying to wheelie a R3 he got for free

Okay so been thinking about getting in to bow riding and after looking at the website for Yamaha I found the r3 then KZfaq sent me here long story short I’m sold it looks better IMO over the cbr 300 so here soon it’s r3 for me thanks man for the video

Next time you do a cruiser video, PLEASE make a video on Honda VTX models!

0:40 bro called me out😭

I would really appreciate it if Yamaha could just give the R3 Assist And Slipper clutch from the factory or the VVA Technology that they have. One more thing, redesign it like the R7 because I think almost all the R-series of Yamaha look the same as the R7 even the new 155cc of Yamaha which is the R15 Version 4 look the same as the R7 with a lot of cool features.

I wonder if anyone from the stock video ever watched Yammie’s video and messaged him about it 🤔
