    World GP 60th Anniversary colour scheme

    The R3 World GP 60th Anniversary’s historic racing colour scheme replicates the famous design used on Yamaha’s Grand Prix race bikes from a previous era. Its pure-white bodywork features the iconic red "speed block" graphics, and to complete the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary’s authentic factory bike look there’s a red front fender, yellow number plate, golden wheels, gold tank badge – and a solid red stripe on top of the tank and tail.

    Radical M1 MotoGP® inspired look

    Inspired by the Yamaha’s MotoGP® race bike, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary’s bodywork is sleek and aerodynamic. The central M1-style air duct gives this compact supersport a pure race-bred look – and with a high overall specification and idealised 50/50 weight distribution, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary is ready to thrill you on the road and track.

    R-Series inspired face

    With its glaring face, this bike is pure R-Series, and features a dynamic front fairing and a race-type screen inspired by the iconic R1. Dual LED headlights and a central air duct work with the cross-layered fairing panels to maximise cooling airflow for the EU5 engine, making this the most outstanding supersport in the 300cc A2 licence class.

    High revving 321cc EU5 engine

    With a compression ratio of 11.2:1, double overhead cams (DOHC) and four-valve cylinder heads, the 321cc two-cylinder engine is designed for quick-revving performance and high-rpm efficiency. With a maximum power output of 30.9 kW (42PS) at 10.750 rpm, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary’s potent EU5 engine delivers thrilling acceleration with an exciting ride and a broad spread of power.

    Lightweight A2-license supersport bike

    Whether you're an A2-licence rider or someone who wants the ultimate lightweight supersport, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary has the technology, performance and style that you're looking for. Developed using the same no-compromise philosophy that goes into every R-Series model, this bike's race-bred DNA is built to thrill.

    Slim and lightweight sports chassis

    The compact and lightweight chassis is manufactured from high tensile steel tubing that gives an optimum balance of strength and rigidity. For sporty and agile handling characteristics the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary's short wheelbase gives outstanding agility – while the near 50/50 front/rear weight distribution and accessible seat height deliver a confident and balanced ride.

    R1 inspired dual LED headlights

    The front fairing is equipped with R1-style headlights that underline the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary's strong genetic links with Yamaha’s larger R-Series supersport models. Utilising bright and long-lasting LED technology, the dual headlights produce excellent visibility and illumination with minimal power draw – and give the bike a true race-bred look.

    37 mm KYB USD front forks

    The R3 World GP 60th Anniversary features 37 mm KYB USD forks with optimised spring and damping settings. This design gives a large surface area for the sliding tube that ensures high levels of fork rigidity for sporty front-end feel and feedback without losing real-world comfort – and the special top clamp reinforces the radical M1-inspired style.

    Low fuel tank and handlebar position

    Thanks to the low fuel tank design and low handlebars, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary's ergonomics give a pure supersport riding experience. As well as being extremely comfortable, the riding position makes it easy to grip the machine with your knees for improved confidence, especially when you’re tucking in close to the bodywork for maximum aerodynamic efficiency.

    Lightweight wheels and supersport tyres

    Featuring five pairs of thin cast spokes that complement the bike's sleek R-Series looks, the 17-inch wheels are fitted with a 110/70-17 radial front tyre and a wide 140/70-17 radial rear tyre. These cast aluminium wheels with light hollow axles are both strong and stylish, while also minimising unsprung weight for refined handling performance.

  • alt

    Powerful braking system with ABS

    The 298 mm floating-mount front disc brake ensures excellent stopping power with plenty of feel at the lever, while a 220 mm floating disc handles the braking performance at the rear. And with its ABS anti-lock braking system, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary rider can ride confidently – even when traction is reduced in wet or slippery conditions.

  • alt

    Balanced 50/50 weight distribution

    Thanks to the engine placement and overall machine dimensions, the R3 World GP 60th Anniversary features a near 50/50 front/rear weight distribution – widely regarded as being the ideal set up for supersport bikes – giving precise handling performance, easy agility and plenty of feedback from the road.
