Yamaha R15 (OLD) User Reviews

I had Yamaha R15 V1. It is running around one lakh 45 thousands km according to the calculation of 2nd speedometer and complete 13 years, and still in perfect condition. I touched 145 at long stretch highway. Am the first owner, it was dream sports bike at that time. And many more km to clock on it. It was a best motorcycle in motorcycle history. Yamaha is always my favorite brand. Because my father had rx100 Rajdoot edition it's was completed 47 years still in condition and one kick start. I wish again R15 V1 model launch in market with more power, more modern technology with high cc engine.

Even the stock tyres are excellent on the R15. You won't feel like something is missing from this package.

Best Features: Brakes and agility to switch in tight corners.

Pros: Agility, Aerodynamic, Progressive brake bite, R series delta box frame.

Cons: From my opinion, there are no cons

Some people says that this bike has poor mileage and high maintenance. Yamaha has given everything that one can expect in a 150cc bike. It will cost more because you get fuel injection, 6 gears, deltabox frame, liquid cooled engine and much more than standard 150cc bikes.

Best Features: High & Low end Torque, Responsive yet Refined engine

Pros: Best in class build quality, performance

Cons: Headlight, Pillion seat

Initial pick up is great but the end performance is not up to mark. The only drawback is the headlight which is attractive but not effective during the night. It is an eye-catcher on the road.

Best Features: Aerodynamic and low end torque!!

Pros: Low end torque, aerodynamic fairing and built quality.

Cons: Not comfortable, worst headlights

I was confused between RS200 and R15. Then took test drive of both bikes. RS 200 is very comfortable in sitting and seat comfort. The only downside of this bike is engine reliability and harshness. Front visor of RS200 starts rattling after sometime which is very annoying.

Best Features: No vibrations at all throughout the rev range

Pros: Styling, engine refinement

Cons: Rear seat is a challenge for pillion rider

1. My R15 v2 gets it mono shock damage in only 5000 km. 2. In the engine oil shield is also poor quality engine oil lick in drops from my bike. 3. When i got to showroom for those problems they tell they do nothing in free all problems charges Rs 3000 4. Headlight is worst in night condition .I had changed it with led white. 5. Worst sitting condition, pillion rider is like sitting on a rock. 6. Its radiator don't starts in extreme temp .n starts when u r in ideal n engine was not on heat. 7. Yamaha is MotoGP company how Yamaha has made a bike like this.

Best Features: I think honda cbr is best in its class ..

Pros: Nothing special in this bike u all should go for Thunderbird or honda cbr .plzz frnds dont buy it.

Cons: Its sitting condition is very dump ur hands n back get pain after riding 50km only

A value for money and a rapid performance vehicle with stunning looks. Needs improvement in seat designs it is too hard,the only problem is rider seat is not comfortable. A featured upgrade in the seats of the existing 2.0 version would be a great one. Because we need some comfortable seats.

Best Features: Performance,looks

Pros: Pick up,build quality,engine sound, handling

Cons: Hard seats, weight centers to rides wrist

It looks damn se*y, if u will maintain it properly it will give mileage around 40 kmpl easily! Performance is awesome,handling is too good,u can trust on yamaha r15 engine it will never betray u but the thing is u have to service it regularly at yamaha service centre. Rear seat is very uncomfortable, maintenance is too high, brake pads need to change under 5000-7000km, electrical minor parts are also not durable for long time, customer service is also not good.
