Reviewing the Design of the Yamaha YZF-R3 2021
The Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 draws design inspiration from the YZR-M1 series. Let's explore the impressive features and design of this bike.
1.1. Sporty Design
The Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 is a sportbike with a highly athletic design and a rider posture hugging the fuel tank, which has become its signature. When viewed head-on, the fairings of the Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 have bold cut lines for a solid feel. The overall dimensions of the bike are 2,090 x 730 x 1,140 mm. The seat height is only 780mm, suitable for the stature of Vietnamese riders.
The rear end of Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 is delicately designed with a subtle, forward-leaning sensation for the pillion rider. The rear light cluster enhances the bike's recognition with its stylish, fashionable, and sophisticated design.
1.2. Front Design Inspired by Yamaha R1 Superbike
The front section is designed with a rounded profile. The standout feature at the front is the dual headlights inspired by the elder sibling, Yamaha R1. The air duct between the LED headlights is designed in the MotoGP style. The LED technology in the headlights, taillights, and turn signals ensures higher illumination efficiency while still maintaining fuel efficiency.
1.3. Meticulous Attention to Every Small Detail
Upon closer observation, you'll notice that the fuel tank of Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 is designed to be slightly higher than that of the R1. Additionally, the front mudguard is more enclosed, providing better coverage for the engine.
The clip-on handlebars contribute to the forward-leaning posture characteristic of sportbikes. However, the riding position of Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 is somewhat upright and comfortable, avoiding back strain during long rides.
1.4. Modern Dashboard Design
Instead of the analog gauge design in the previous version, Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 features a modern LCD screen. Parameters such as RPM, gear level, trip distance, time, fuel level, engine temperature, and speed are all displayed on the dashboard.
2. Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 Engine Review
The power of Yamaha R3 comes from the dual-cylinder, DOHC, 4-stroke engine with a displacement of 321 cc, liquid cooling, producing 41.5 horsepower at 10,750 RPM and a peak torque of 29.6 Nm at 9,000 RPM.
Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 exhibits improved acceleration and the ability to reach significantly higher speeds compared to previous versions, thanks to upgraded aerodynamics and a reduced weight of only 167kg, 6kg lighter than its predecessor. The 6-speed gearbox on Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 ensures quick and smooth gear shifts.
3. Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 Safety Features Review
The Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 features Upside-down front forks and a rear Monoshock suspension, ensuring smooth operation even on rough roads. However, the suspension system of Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 has a drawback when taking sharp turns. If the speed exceeds 90 km/h while turning, the Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 doesn't give a sense of safety, and the rear end may feel slippery to the rider.
Additionally, the bike boasts a single-disc brake system for both front and rear wheels with diameters of 298mm and 220mm, using Nissin Radial calipers and supported by the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), ensuring rider safety, especially during tight turns.
4. What is the price of the Yamaha YZF-R3 2021?
The Yamaha YZF-R3 2021 has a suggested retail price at official dealerships of 129,000,000 VND with two color options: silver-blue and black. Including taxes and fees, the on-road price is approximately 139,500,000 VND.
This competitive pricing positions the Yamaha R3 favorably against competitors like the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-25R, Honda CBR300R, coupled with the advantage of official distribution and impressive performance. Yamaha's sportbike continues to offer users one of the best choices in the market.
