Hey, which frame sliders are you using. I've been loking for some decent dedicated frame sliders for R3 but I can only find really expensive ones. Will any framesider, which will fit on bike, work or do I have to get a dedicated one? Also do you use radiator grill or any other protection for R3?
Hey... thanks for your message and stopping by on my channel. I use RetroCross frame sliders on my bike. It cost me 3400/-. There is video on my channel where I install these, so you can check it out too for more details. It's a single point mount type. There are others with 2 or 3 point mount too I guess. So see what kinda sliders you want for your bike. I had a crash and the sliders protected the fairings very well. I have never used a radiator grill in any of my bikes ever. No other protection. Cheers man!
Bro i think u r the only one in India who makes so detailed reviews about Yamaha R3 and even the tires we should choose, just today afternoon I was wondering what if I equip a vredestein tyre on my Yamaha R3? What's your views i think u should give a try too
I would suggest Apollo Alpha H1. Good all round performance and life. TVS will have less life but great handling. If you can manage with less life, get TVS else go with Apollo.
Yes, it's good for touring and has longer life however I feel the grip levels are still not there to my satisfaction. I feel it's harder than TVS and Apollo. 😎👍
@@andrewcarnegie5342 I haven't used the Rad X1 so it will unfair for me to say anything. H1s are good all rounded tyres. Can also look at Tvs Protorq Extreme.
Buddy i think the Apollo alpha s1 is a good tyre for bad roads specially for sport bikes.... I have also used the following I replaced the stock metzellers at 10-11k kms Then I got the rosso 2 and used it for another 13k kms Then I m using the Alpha s1 as i was into a lot of bad roads for a few days and i wanted a sort of tyre that won't burn my pocket tbh and i got satisfied with the performance For 5500-6000 a set S1 is great for bad roads... I will be replacing them soon and now i m thinking with the three options The Alpha h1. Tvs protorq Or the vredestein st
Basic maintenance I do at home... Chain clean/lube, slack adjustment, brake pads clean/change, air filter change, oil filter change, oil change and some other small DIYs. Rest I go to private mechanic.
@@ajithabhimanyam.8217 Front brakes do most of braking so the components are of better quality. As far as I know rear brake pads on R3 are rated FF. I think front are HH quality which is superior. Pads material is also different. It can take more wear and tear. So mostly front brakes in bikes will be more expensive than rear.
Hello bro can you share me where to get tvs protorq extreme in Chennai as far as I was searching most of them say the supply of those tyres are rare and it would be a long wait even if we make a demand can you kindly share the location where can I get protorq extreme
Hey bro... It's difficult to get. Even I searched and I couldn't find it. Then I ordered online from Torqueblock. The best option is Whites Road... That's where all tyre shops are in Chennai.
@@HighwayToHillGoing to install apollo Alpha H1 itself today my old tyres got no grip I was waiting for 1 month to get protorq's but no positive sign 😑
heey...bro. suggest a good tyre for my r 3 i hardly going for the ride... mostly riding in the city.. most of the times my bike always in parking..😅 i hardly done 13 k but now i need to change pair..
I would suggest the TVS Protorq Extreme. It's really good and affordable too. If you can't get TVS then go for Apollo Alpha H1s. Cheers! Thanks for your question!
On my 390 metz lasted just 10k kms and I am a slow rider. After 10k the back wheel started locking while downshifting even with slipper clutch. I could have used it for another 2k kms but it wasn't worth the risk.
Good video and helpful in selecting us Apollo Alpha H1 tyres however is this the purpose of you life, Ride the bike around the whole country and make videos on RU-vid, I am sure you will bigger things to do in your life right?
I have clocked over 65K on this bike alone and a lot more on my previous bike travelling solo across the length and breadth. I travel to a new city almost every month. Travel motovlogs are not my thing however I do have a few videos on my channel. The purpose of these videos is to help new and young riders who are getting their sports bike for the first time. That's my main audience. I love doing this! Cheers!
I haven't used it personally however f4om what I've heard is that Apollo Alpha H1, Tvs Protorq Extreme or Michelin Raod 5 are better options. There's also the new Mrf Steel Brace. Go with any of these.
