i found the handle bar is more suited for riding with body mid to up position. when i squat my elbow is a little pain after a while.

oversight by yamaha?

They have to make Lams bikes learner friendly,
thus the very high bars.


Lower clip-ons/ or mount under/ upside down.

Grip the tank with your knees or rest your sternum on the tank to take the weight off of your hands.

I usually tuck my body above 70miles/hour, feel more stable and less noisy

For me anyway, the shape of the saddle locks me in an upright, centered riding position. I could cruise on it all day, but get into the twisties, and I'm fighting it a little just to be able to steer it. Some Armor-All on the seat will probably help, but I think a more performance-oriented, flatter seat would help too. I think I'd start with getting my body where it wants to be for performance riding, then set up the controls accordingly, rather than the other way around.

They didn't have to make it "learner friendly" the R125 is not a upright "learner friendly" bike at all because it was never made to be released in the usa where they have it way to easy getting on a bike in regards to tests and such

The ergos of the R3 use higher handle bars than a super sport bike to make it more comfortable and practical for everyday street use.

just did 100 km/h today and i found that after sitting at the furthest my elbow no longer feel pain, now my back sometimes felt tired after squatting.

also R3's seat is pretty short compared to my old zx6r

When I tuck my elbows touch my knees!

Graves makes some 41mm clip ons, imagine you could also look at Woodcraft or Vortex and mount them on the top side of clip-ons in similar fashion as the current are mounted, or even under and angle them so they clear fairing plastics.

Here is a nice little write up and how-to this guy put together if you are considering clip-on change out.

A tripod position with your elbows resting on your knees is a very comfortable way to get your chest out of the wind. This anchors your torso to the bike for the best self correcting perormance in cross winds and takes some weight off of your hands and seat.

You mean taking a two day boot camp at MSF course isn't enough to ride liter bikes? Pfft
