Yamaha R15S Review
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
India Yamaha Motor has expanded its lineup with the introduction of the new YZF R15S in our market. Instead of the split-style unit found on the YZF R15 V4.0, this new model has a single-piece step-up seat. The motorcycle is available in two colors: Racing Blue and Matte Black.
The design elements of the new R15S are largely inspired by its elder sibling, the R1. It has all-new LED headlights and an aerodynamic front cowl with an air vent up front. The large windscreen and stylish rear-view mirrors add to the sports bike's bold appearance. It also gets a new front fairing with sharp cuts and creases that blends with the muscularly designed fuel tank. The fuel tank also has knee recesses to make it easier to place your knees while riding. The black-coloured side panels add to the R15S’ style statement and look quite appealing. With a sleek LED tail light and tapered rear cowl, the tail end looks sharp and edgy. It also gets a new black tyre cover that closely fits the rear tyre. The motorcycle has a new exhaust with a faux carbon fibre finish.
An updated 155cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled, SOHC engine powers the Yamaha R15S. With a 6-speed gearbox, this engine produces a max power of 18.6 HP at 10,000 rpm and a peak torque of 14.1 Nm at 8,500 rpm. Variable Valve Action (VVA) is also included in the latest Yamaha R15S. It improves the engine's efficiency by adding flexibility to the valve train.
Yamaha claims it has a top speed of 144 km/h and a fuel economy of 40 km/l. Another difference is that the new R15S now has a slipper clutch. It improves rear wheel stability, especially during aggressive downshifting.
The delta box frame serves as the foundation for the R15S. The suspension consists of standard telescopic forks up front and a mono-shock at the rear. Yamaha has equipped the R15S with 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres. The tyres are now wider than the previous version, measuring 100/80 in the front and 140/70 in the rear, with the latter being a radial. A 282mm disc at the front and a 220mm disc at the rear handle braking duties. This braking system is linked to a dual-channel ABS system. It helps the Yamaha R15S stop in a short distance even at triple-digit speeds.
The feature list on the Yamaha R15S includes a multi-function LCD instrument cluster with a gear-shift & VVA indicator. A side stand indicator with engine cut-off function, and a connector for USB charging.

My Journey with R15 V3
It was the year 2018, My Bajaj Pulsar had completed 15 years, so I was looking on the net for a new bike. When I saw it for the first time, an arrow of love went across my heart, although it had some shortcomings, in spite of this, I bought it and thought whatever will happen will be seen, the only drawback was only the headlight and riding position. Today is the month of 2021 September and today I am claiming that there is no match for it. I have taken it on the hills, on the highways, and on the rough village roads, but its performance is amazing, although the riding position is so aggressive that it hurts in the back but the performance is such that this thing is forgivable, I do exercise continuously to keep me fit to ride this beast and that's why I am fit because this bike is for the youth and for long running you must be fit as youth to ride it, so today I am also fit because of it, thank you for this. Good mileage, superior performance, looks, good reliable engine make it a clear winner wherever you go. This is my journey with R15 V3.
Best Features: After VVA activation it behave like a superbike and slipper clutch at high speed is just awesome.
