Yamaha has updated the R15 in Indonesia with a brand new color. The Yamaha R15 V4 is the Japanese bikemaker’s flagship supersport bike, as well as its most feature-packed offering in India. The V4 update included a brand-new design, along with a list of useful features.
Yamaha R15 V4 Price in India
The Yamaha YZF-R15 V4 Metallic Red and Dark Knight variants have been priced at Rs 1,79,900 and Rs 1,80,900 respectively. The Racing Blue version, meanwhile, carries a price tag of Rs 1,84,900 and R15M (Metallic Grey) sets you back by Rs 1,91,400. The exclusive Yamaha R15M World GP 60th Edition is priced at Rs 1,91,800, while the MotoGP Edition will set you back by Rs 1,93,400 (all prices ex-showroom, Delhi).
Yamaha R15 V4 Features
The fourth generation of the R15 is loaded to the brim with features. It gets a revised fascia featuring a new Bi-functional LED headlamp flanked by LED DRLs, and a new YZF-R1-inspired digital instrument console with Yamaha’s Y-Connect app.
The display gets modes (Street and Track), along with a lap timer, gear position indicator, call/message alerts, mobile battery status, connection status, average fuel efficiency, and last parked location. You can also access information like instantaneous fuel economy, intake air temperature, eco indicator, degree of throttle opening, and rate of acceleration.
The R15 V4 Racing Blue, ‘M’ and R15M World GP 60th Edition take things a step further by offering traction control and a quick-shifter as standard equipment. You could, however, also opt for a quick-shifter as an add-on, on the base variants.
Yamaha R15 V4 Engine
Performance remains virtually unchanged. The R15 V4 continues to use the same 155cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine. However, it’s been detuned to produce 18.4PS, 0.2 less than the older V3. Torque on the other hand remains unchanged at 14.2Nm. The motor comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox featuring a slip and assist clutch.
Yamaha R15 V4 Suspension & Brakes
The R15’s hardware gets a massive boost thanks to the new USD fork. The rest of the bike is pretty much the same featuring a delta box frame, a preload adjustable mono-shock, and disc brakes on both ends with dual-channel ABS. The R15 V4 gets a rear radial tyre as a standard fitment, but the front continues to have a bias-ply unit.
