IMPORTANT NOTICE RE TECHNICAL INFO ON YOUR R3:
HELPING YOU TO HELP ALL OF US ON THE FORUM.
The answers to MANY/MOST of your questions about adjustments, specs, re-sets, capacities, etc. are available in your Owner’s Manual.
Many of the same questions get asked repeatedly when the answers are either in the manual or already posted on a thread on the Forum.
If you can’t find the answer in the manual you can try the really useful R3 FAQ MEGA THREAD that Stirz has generously compiled and posted for us (correction from Stirz: Admin actually created this. Thanks to Stirz anyway for his efforts as Super Moderator. Kudos!). Add it to the Bookmarks Bar on your browser for easy access....
http://www.r3-forums.com/forum/289-...yamaha-r3-faq-how-mega-thread-read-first.html
Or, alternately, use the Forum Search Box (upper right on the page) to find what you’re looking for. Keeping the search term(s) simple will net the most/best results, like “HID Lights” or “Axle Nut Torque”.
Another option is to find the correct Forum, under “FORUMS” upper left on the page. Using this you can find all the posts about a topic such as “Suspension” under TECH TALK, “Yamaha R3 Parts For Sale” in the MARKETPLACE Forum, etc.
If you’re starting a new thread, it helps to put it in the correct Forum, so others can find it more easily without having to hunt all around the site or start a new thread about an already posted topic.
Everybody on here is happy to help with questions, but may sometimes get frustrated with seeing the same ones asked over and over. Bear with us if we get a touch testy, for some of us are Oldies and/or Crusties who've Seen Too Much In Life already.
This Forum, unlike many others that have devolved into Flame Fests, is a very friendly one. Hopefully it will remain that way.
So, READ YOUR OWNERS MANUAL, Search For Existing Threads/Posts, and THEN Fire Away with the queries if you can’t find the answers anywhere else! And, yes, I said Queries. Deal with it!
DISCLAIMER: Please ignore the above if you already know all this. It wasn’t meant to be condescending in any way or to impugn or insult anyone’s intelligence. It was written mostly for those new to motorcycles & motorcycling and new to this Forum, or Forums in general.
Thank you for your attention!!!
And never forget: " "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." "Or the One!" " -- Wise words to live by from Spock & Kirk...
