Yamaha R15M Updates

Thursday, 12 January 2023 12:25 AM Yamaha India has declared the debut of the 2022 MotoGP Edition models of the R15M and MT-15 Ver 2.0. The limited edition bikes will be available at the company's Blue Square chain of dealerships across India.

Monday, 16 September 2024 04:56 PM Yamaha India has launched the 2024 Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Edition models, including the R15M and the MT-15 Version 2.0, as part of their The Call of the Blue campaign. These limited edition models feature a livery inspired by Yamahas MotoGP bikes and are available only through Blue Square showrooms. Mechanically, the bikes remain unchanged, retaining the 155cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine. I believe these editions will appeal to fans of MotoGP and those looking for a sporty aesthetic.

Friday, 13 September 2024 11:42 PM The 2024 Yamaha R15M has been updated with a new carbon fibre pattern graphic, inspired by the R1M’s carbon bodywork. This design is applied using modern water-dipping technology and is visible on the front cowl, sides fairing, and rear side panels. The bike also features turn-by-turn navigation, music and volume control through the Y-Connect app, upgraded switchgear, and a new LED license plate light. I think these updates enhance the bikes sporty appeal and user convenience significantly.

Friday, 13 September 2024 04:09 PM Yamaha Motor India has introduced the R15M with a carbon fibre pattern at Rs 2.08 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), and an upgraded R15M in Metallic Grey at Rs 1.98 lakh. The carbon fibre pattern is a standout feature, along with an all-black fender, new decals, and blue wheels. The bike also includes features like traction control, a quick shifter, and a fully digital colour TFT screen. I believe the new design elements will attract a lot of attention from young riders.

Saturday, 14 September 2024 12:22 AM The 2024 Yamaha R15M continues to be powered by a 155cc liquid-cooled engine producing 18.1 hp and 14.2 Nm of torque, paired with a six-speed gearbox and a slipper/assist clutch. The bike features a fully digital TFT screen with Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and music/volume control via the Y-Connect app. I think the combination of performance and technology makes this bike a compelling choice for supersport enthusiasts.

Friday, 13 September 2024 07:30 PM Yamahas Chairman Eishin Chihana highlighted that the R15 has embodied class-leading performance since its launch in 2008, enabling many consumers to experience the joy of riding a supersport motorcycle with Yamaha Racing DNA. The new R15M variants align with this legacy, offering both performance and stylish design. I believe this legacy and the new updates will continue to make the R15M a favorite among Indian riders.
