Yamaha R15 V3 Darknight (BS6) Updates

Sunday, 03 September 2023 09:42 AM The Yamaha R15 V3 Darknight Edition has been discontinued in India, marking the end of an era for this popular sports bike. The bike was known for its sleek dark design and performance capabilities, making it a favorite among young riders. I think this move might disappoint many fans, but it could also pave the way for new and improved models.

Saturday, 19 September 2020 06:38 AM The BS6 version of the Yamaha R15 V3 Darknight saw significant updates, including compliance with the new emission norms and the addition of a 2-channel ABS system. This version also retained its powerful 155.1 cc engine, producing 18.6 HP and 14.1 NM of torque. I believe these updates made the bike more appealing to those looking for both performance and safety.

Monday, 02 December 2019 01:12 AM When the Yamaha R15 V3 Darknight Edition was launched in India in December 2019, it came with a price tag of Rs 1,59,700 (Ex-Showroom, Delhi). The bike featured a unique dark color scheme, twin-eye LED headlights, and a full digital LCD multi-function instrument cluster. I think the design and features made it stand out in the market, especially for those who value both style and technology.

Friday, 01 March 2019 10:00 PM The Yamaha R15 V3, including the Darknight Edition, was praised for its performance, with the ability to accelerate from 0-100 kmph in 10.1 seconds and a top speed of 136 kmph. The bike also had a comfortable pillion seat and advanced features like a gear shift indicator and VVA indicator. I believe these performance metrics and comfort features made it a solid choice for both city and track riding.

Friday, 01 March 2019 10:19 PM Yamaha introduced the R15 V3 in India in March 2019, which included the Darknight Edition later in the year. The bike was built on a delta box frame with telescopic forks at the front and monocross suspension at the rear, enhancing its handling and stability. I think the suspension and chassis design contributed significantly to its popularity among riders.
