You will want to use the 'xlim' and 'ylim' arguments in plot() to set
the initial axis ranges for the scatter plot based upon the ranges of
the combined x* or y* vectors. That way, the plot region ranges are set
to include all of your values.

x.range <- range(x1, x2, x3)
y.range <- range(y1, y2, y3)

plot(x1, y1, xlim = x.range, ylim = y.range)
lines(x2, y2)
lines(x3, y3)

See ?plot.default for more information.
