I just want to say a big thank you for your video. Must’ve watched this a dozen times as reference for working on my R3.
You are welcome and thank you for watching! - Van
hi.
after a lousy , it is so relaxing to see you work.l
Van is a fucking legend when it comes to everything.
Appreciate the kind words. - Van
Awesome pls more videos about the R3 and Ninja 400! 💯🤙
Thank you very much for the video, very thorough and informative. Did you empty the tank before, and if yes, how? It seems pretty light.
No you can pull the tank with any fuel level in it. When we shot this it just may have been pretty empty. - Van
Great video. Keep em coming
Thanks for watching! - Van
BTW the correct torque for spark plugs is 12.7 NM or 9.4 ft lbs.
I will sleep much better tonight knowing this. - Van
Where’d you get that T socket tool?
Motion Pro Spinner II T-Handle

@@sportbiketrackgear thanks! Looks like a tool that would be worth having in the garage.
Awesome videos as usual, fellow 2015 R3 owner. Any harm if I add a bit of anti seize grease and silicone/die electric grease?
No harm in doing that at all. - Van
what model of ngk did you put ? TIA
You can use either of the plugs in this link: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/parts/yamaha/yzf-r3/2015/?_bc_fsnf=1&brand=65
The iridium plug is technically better, not sure you would actually feel any performance benefit but it would last longer. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear can i use UMA RACING IRIDIUM AB9R31 ?
Hi Brian do you have the torque settings for the front sprocket of this bike?
Sorry I do not torque the front sprocket. - Van
Could you make a Valve Clearance video?
If and when I adjust the valves we will. I may send the motor out to have some improvements made, if that happens I will not be adjusting the valves. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear alright ! That sounds great !
Thank you for keeping the 2015 R3 updated with mods and upgrades! Props to the camera work as well - nicely done showing proper focus on the steps needed to accomplish this install.
Video Caleb has made a couple changes to the program, happy to hear you like the end result. Thank you for watching! - Van

Hey, thanks for the video. I was wondering as time comes to change the spark plugs, can iridium spark plugs be bad for the bike (I don’t track it), I just want them to last a little longer than copper (they’re a pain to change, that’s why lol) ?
I've read anything and everything on that subject, that's why I'm hesitant.
Been using iridium sparkplug from past 2 years on the street,no issues whatsoever 😁
@@rishabhbhardwaj5964 Okay, thanks for the feedback
There are too many bull shit theories on the internet my man. No reason not to use the Irriduim plugs on the street or the track. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear Thank you for the reply, always appreciated when professionals take time to explain.
have I missed a video on the tuning of the power commander or has there not been a video? kinda wondering I am putting my money on your R3 putting out more power then mine due to your full M4 system over my M4 street slayer slip on but by how much
these vids are a godsend man. you make everything so simple, even a trash mechanic like me can handle it. thanks Brian and STG crew, I appreciate all your work. Loved watching Max race at Road America last week; that junior class was some of the most intense racing of the weekend. Good luck in WA and hope to see y'all in WI again
Happy to hear the videos are helpful. Thank you for watching and the kind words. - Van
excellent and clear explanation how service my bike.. 👍🏽
Thanks for watching! - Van
almost time for sparkplug change on my r3 too ..
@SportbikeTrack Gear
Thanks for all of the great videos. After watching your videos, I have the confidence on wrenching on my Ducati 899 Panigale. I just finished a single sided swing arm conversion on my bike because of that confidence. If you ever need to wrench on a Ducati let me know! lol
You are welcome and thank you for watching! - Van
How good are iridium spark plugs for small cc bikes? And do you recommend using any other brand rather than NGK. Please do let me know..
I do not really expect a significant difference (if any) in performance between the OEM NGK and the Irridium version. The price difference was very slight so I opted to run what I feel is the best of the 2 options. We only use and sell NGK plugs, IMO there is no reason to look elsewhere. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear Most of the Yamaha bikes come with OEM NGK spark plugs..You are right there is no where else to look..
Nice just got a R3 thanks for the tips
You are welcome and thank you for watching! - Van
Why do you remove the Tip of Spark Plug before installing them? Just want to know for my information. I have just bought a bike and I am going for my first service in a day or two. Any tips for my first service? I have been following your work ever since I did not even owned a motorbike 😂 also what Tyre pressure do you suggest for a 150/60/17 rear and 110/60/17 front tyre?
Go for 36psi on front and 38psi on back, ride and see whether you feel comfortable or not, if not comfortable then gradually decrease by 2 psi for both front and rear until you find a suitable pressure for u
I watched all your videos on the R3. Each one is perfect and undoubtedly the best how-to videos I've ever watched. Very thorough, detailed, step-by-step, easy to understand instructions and excellent camera work, take all the guessing and headache out of trying to learn. I just bought a used R3 with about 2k miles on it for my first motorcycle. Though I'm no stranger to turning a wrench, you inspire confidence in a new rider when it comes to performing regular maintenance on my bike. I can't thank you enough but definitely earned a sub from me and will be purchasing my parts from STG in the future. Thanks again! -Nick
Thank you for watching and enjoy that R3 my friend. - Van
how much the odometer usually change spark plug in yamaha r3
We only had a couple thousand miles on our STG R3. Considering most all of these were on the track I decided to replace the plugs. End of the day it is just good maintenance and they are cheap. - Van
Awesome video! However I cannot fit a long 16mm spark plug socket on. I think it hits the extension through the center of the socket. Any tips would be much appreciated.
Pretty sure this is a 14mm external hex. Sounds like you may have the wrong size or you need a deeper well. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear Yes! I actually found out it was 14mm because my 2018 model had the LMAR8A9 spark plug. Not the standard CR8E 16mm socket spark plug.
What size best NGK iridium for r3 ?
Here is a link to the plugs we offer for the R3 on our site: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/parts/yamaha/yzf-r3/2019/?_bc_fsnf=1&Department=Filters+and+Plugs
The CR8E are stock, the Iridium are a longer lasting plug. Not sure you will actually notice any difference in performance. - Van
100%
Will changing the spark plug makes the bike run smoother
If the plug is worn it will improve the performance a bit. End of the day this is a maintenance item that you want to replace before it becomes an issue. They are cheap and easy to install. - Van
@@sportbiketrackgear In northeast India due to hilly road and traffic jam r3 faced a lot of issues , many times our bike suddenly turned off in traffic jam and we need to press the ignition button for a several times because the bike can't ignite properly, can this also be spark plug issues
