I have had a fender eliminator and turn signals changed out for a while.
And I just installed yoshimura full exhaust system.
I didn't realize it was going to be this loud lol.
Bit louder than i expected. But I do like the sound.
The installation was easier than I thought.
Just watched youtube video and followed everything step by step.
Gotta love MotoGuild. They have all the tools and support you might need to work on your motorcycle.

I also installed clutch and break lever that i bought from ebay.
But not a big fan of it. Doesn't feel good.
Does anyone have any clutch / break lever that fits on r3 that's not chinese ebay ones?

There are people who had good experience with the item too.
But my break lever feels little too loose. And I like my stock levers more.

That's the problem with the cheap fleabay stuff - it's a crap-shoot as to whether they: fit correctly, are made well, or operate as well as stock. Sometimes they are quite good, other times complete junk.
One of our vendors has lever sets at a pretty good price:https://www.spearsenterprises.com/yamaha-r-3.html

Good question - I've never heard of 'race use only' levers. Contact Gregg - probably a typo.

Some jurisdictions have major issues (and penalties) if you say "street legal" and the product hasn't been thru the official programs. I would expect that's Spears' reasoning. There is nothing fundamental to levers that makes them street or race only aside from legalese to cover one's liability.
