New r3 but not new to riding first bike was a 2001 zx6r(sold) I'm a 1 month owner of a raven edition yamaha yzf r3 just seeing if any fellow r3 owners live near me to take a ride some time

Dude I just saw you on MotoHouston and I saw your profile pic and I was like **** yeah r3's in houston! I came here and saw you here now! I also have a raven r3 I'm in Sugar Land but don't really have too much time to ride cause school. I'll probably be able to go out more often around January or Feb so we might be able to meet up then. If you're looking for other people to ride with I heard there's a group that meets up at La Madeleine in Sugar Land and then go out to Crabb River on Sundays, haven't seen them yet though.

 

[Kojiiro]

Welcome! I also had a zx6r, among other bikes, before this one. How are you liking it compared to the 636?

Welcome from England

Definitely miss the power of my zx but the r3 is a fun little bike but honestly I've owned in for about a month now and I'm bored of it and I get blown around on the freeway to much for my likings

Could you explain why you went with the r3 in the first place and whether you will be going back soon to the 600 super sport bikes soon?


General Question for all: Also, I realize bikes get blown around on the highway, each to a different extent, but at what level above a 300cc class does it get noticeably tolerable on the highway?

 

[loneStarGhost]

Anybody in the Houston area want to meet up? Im near the katy area

 

[torrid_pace]

welcome!

Already bored of the r3 you say??? Must not be very many tracks out in the houston area

There is COTA less than 3 hours away. That would be an amazing time on a bike.

OP needs more twisties and maybe then he wont be so bored.

 

[Homyality]

There's multiple track options in the general area, and I wouldn't recommend COTA as a first time rider. MSR is very local and if it's your first time it's half off at $75 to go out with Ridesmart.

I agree with Homyality MSR is local and it's a nice track. I've seen a lot of r3's and rc390s over there
