The Yamaha YZF-R3 is a sport motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha since 2015. It is sold as the YZF-R25 with a 321 cc (19.6 cu in) DOHC inline twin-cylinder engine, as opposed to the typical 4 cylinder engines common in the "R" line. It has a downdraft fuel injection system, 11.2:1 compression and an all aluminum DiASil coated cylinder with forged aluminum pistons. Peak HP is at 10,750rpm. The suspension contains KYB shocks up front with a preload-adjustable rear shock to compensate for rider weight and cargo.

ABS

New for the 2017 model is an ABS (Anti-Lock Brake) system coupled to the hydraulically actuated 298mm front and 220mm rear floating disk brakes to increase the safety of the rider.
