Yamaha Motor has launched the updated YZF-R3 motorcycle in the country priced at Rs 3.48 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The full-faired offering makes a comeback to the Indian market after nearly a year, since the manufacturer had pulled the bike off its shelves by not upgrading it to be compliant to BS-IV emission norms in April 2017. India now gets the 2018 edition of the Yamaha R3 that gets subtle changes for the new year and was unveiled globally in November, 2017. The mechanicals continue to remain the same, as the bike is powered by the same 321 cc in-line, twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine tuned to produce 41 bhp at 10,750 rpm and 29.6 Nm of peak torque at 9000 rpm. But now the engine is BS-IV compliant and to the makes things better Yamaha now also offers dual channel ABS (anti-lock braking system) as standard. The engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox.
