	Vehicle Overview
	R15 is India's favorite sport bike in 150cc segment, as even after 8 years of launch. The bike carries an influential design and carries all of the advanced engine technologies like liquid cooling and electronic fuel injection. Yamaha R15 V2.0 generates 16.8 BHP and 15 Nm of torque. It competes against Honda CBR150R primarily. Due to its high price, it is even compared to Bajaj Pulsar RS200 very often.	Hero Karizma ZMR version 2.0 is an EBR design language inspired flagship motorcycle in the Indian manufacturer's lineup. It uses a 223 cc, oil cooled and fuel injected motor producing 20 BHP at 8000 rpm and 19.7 Nm at 6500 rpm. It comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox and takes just 3.6 seconds for 0-60 kmph. The official top speed is 129 kmph.	CBR150R offers the same design as the bigger 250cc CBR in India. It rivals Yamaha R15 in the Indian market while producing 18.28 BHP of impressive maximum power. It claims a low 12.66 Nm of torque and comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Internationally, CBR150R now also rivals the recently launched Suzuki GSX-R150. CBR150R is temporarily not available in India and the updated model is expected to be launched in coming weeks.
	Should You Buy It?
	If you are a die-hard Yamaha race bike fan, R15 is the best motorcycle one could currently buy with a 150 cc engine.	NA	After carrying so many features, CBR150R still feels shy in front of Yamaha R15. The latter is more popular and even more effective than the CBR.
