Thanks everyone for the good wishes and positive vibes! I haven't been around as much as I'd like recently; it's been a busy summer working on this bike, building the website, racing and testing the bike and different parts, and developing some new parts, but I look forward to the future and what it holds for the R3 and us R3 lovers.
Many of you already know about my website,
www.YamahaR3Racing.com, but for those of you who don't, my goal with YamahaR3Racing.com is to provide the best, most complete, and most concise collection of information about building and racing the Yamaha R3 available.
I'm also a dealer and carry all of the parts for racing the Yamaha R3 that have been deemed to be the best options available by myself or others whose opinions I trust, through thorough on track testing.
I have been operating a not-for-profit rider education program and track day assistance program in San Diego for the past 5 years. I love helping new riders learn about their bikes and learn key riding techniques. But what I really love is helping riders who want to get better, experience their first track day. I truly believe that the Yamaha R3 is going to slowly re-populate the small bike race grids across the country and I want to do my part to help give new racers a hand and advance motorcycle road racing across the US and the world.
It's a lot of work to build this website and gather information, and it's expensive to test and tune different products, and document everything. But I know how amazing and helpful it is when you're able to find the answers to any question you have at the click of a mouse. All I ask in return, is that you give back a little by giving my store a chance when you are in the market for parts for your R3. I don't intentionally carry the most expensive brands or the cheapest. I do my best to find the best value products available and offer those. And I will always have the lowest allowable prices on everything I carry and free shipping on everything that I can. If I miss something and you find a better deal, all I ask is that you give me a heads up and a chance to beat the price for you to keep your business. Help support me and the other vendors who are giving back.
Thank you everyone, let's make this forum and the R3 community awesome!
Currently I carry the following brands along with my own product designs:
Akrapovic - exhaust systems
M4 Exahust - exhaust systems
Bazzaz - fuel management, quickshifter, and traction control
Dynojet Powercommander - fuel mangement, ignition timing, and quickshifter
Annitori - quickshifter
Woodcraft - hard parts
Vortex - hard parts
Sato Racing - hard parts
Galfer - brake products
Traxxion Dynamics - front fork suspension
Penske Racing Shocks - rear shock suspension
BMC - high flow air filters
Moto-D - hard parts, stands and trailer systems, and riding accessories and clothing
My focus is the Yamaha R3, but if you have other bikes, or friends looking for equipment, I carry all of these brands' full line of products and will offer the same low prices on everything, just give me a call or send me an email if you need something for another bike that isn't on the website.
