Trending Questions on Yamaha YZF-R3 - Answered by Autocar Experts

Asked by: Harsh Purohiton Oct 31, 2025

I’m planning to buy a 300 cc sports bike for daily commuting and weekend rides. I’ve shortlisted two bikes: the Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the Apache RR 310. Both are head-turners and cost the same in my region. The Ninja, with its parallel twin, is a reliable machine but lacks some features for its price. On the other hand, the Apache offers every feature for its price but I’m concerned about engine reliability and smoothness. I’m very confused - please help me decide.

Among these two, the TVS Apache RR310 is the more modern and feature-packed motorcycle, making it more value for money. The Kawasaki Ninja 300 has not received any major updates in a long time and carries a higher price tag. The servicing and spare parts of Kawasaki will also be priced at a premium, so that is something to take into consideration. Two other bikes you can also check out are the KTM RC 390 and the Yamaha R3. Take test rides of all four bikes so you know which one suits you best.

Asked by: Manoj Patilon Sep 18, 2025

My budget for a new bike is ₹6-7 lakh. I’m considering the Yamaha R3. Are there any other options? My priorities are reliability, mileage, looks, and refinement.

The Yamaha R3 is a proven and reliable choice in your budget, and with the new GST rules, it has become more affordable. Another capable, though slightly pricier option is the Kawasaki Ninja 500.
The Ninja 500 builds upon the strengths of the Ninja 400 and should be a capable machine. Both these Japanese sportbikes are likely to last you a long time without any hassles (provided you service them regularly) and will also stand out on the road owing to their low sales volumes.
