Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Yamaha R3
- Design - looks like a proper Japanese sportsbike and will grab a lot of attention
- Versatile engine - tractable enough for city rides and rev-happy enough to enjoy being ridden hard
- Handling - changes direction with minimal efforts and inspires a lot of confidence when tipped into corners
- Comfort - tall clip-ons and a relatively upright riding posture means it’s quite comfortable for a sportsbike
TVS Apache RTR 310
- Looks - The aggressive design and attractive colour schemes make it very attention-grabbing. And overall, it looks much larger than other 300cc bikes.
- Comfort - The riding posture is actually surprisingly comfortable. The footpegs are set quite low and the reach to the handlebar is very reasonable

Yamaha R3
- Cramped lower body ergonomics - riders above 5’10 will find the lower body ergonomics quite tight
- No features - quickshifter, traction control and every Bluetooth connectivity, the R3’s console misses out on a lot of things that other bikes in the segment offer as standard. All it gets is a digital console and ABS
- A price tag of Rs 4,64,900 (ex-showroom Delhi) makes the R3 a very expensive bike
- The R3 is expensive and not the best value for your money. That said, it’s still a very reliable, fri
TVS Apache RTR 310
- Vibrations - There are engine vibrations right from about 4000rpm and riders will feel them even in the city. Out on the highway, the RTR 310 feels buzzy even at 100kmph in 6th gear
- Price - When fully configured with all the fancy features, the RTR 310 becomes more expensive than even the KTM 390 Duke.
- Jerky throttle - Whether in Urban or Sport mode, the throttle feels a bit too jerky and every time you roll on and off the throttle, the bike feels jumpy

Yamaha R3 a great bike.
Yamaha R3 is a great bike, offer smooth performance and stylish design. It's 321 engine delivers great power, While comfort and breaking are impressive. It's a top choice for sports bike lovers. The aggressive styling and build quality make it stand out, while the upright sitting position provides a comfortable riding experience, even on longer rides. I think it's a great bike for all bike lovers.

It was an memorable thing
It was an memorable thing that happened in my life were my Dad presented me a bike on my birthday. And the bike was my one of the dream bike to buy in my life. The dual led headlights and sculpted fuel tank give it a premium, aggressive look. Fuel efficiency is around 40-45 kmpl, depending on riding conditions.
