I think adouglas was suggesting the possibility of a swap... probably would still only be good for the drool on an entry level chassis, but what good is a bike you can't drool over!

I definitely like that Yamaha put some beefier forks on this bike, whether that will have any actual performance benefits remains to be seen but it sure seems like the R3 has the best sporting credentials out of the 3 Japanese 300ish bikes.
