Yamaha R15 Version 3 may feel awesome to many in stock form but, enthusiasts are busy crafting impressive details on their motorcycles for that exclusive look that cannot be expected from a stock product. R15 V3 JL99 Edition by Ishant Qamar is one such story, leaving the Thunder Grey theme behind for a more upmarket look. Those new to the automotive world will love to know that JL stands for Jorge Lorenzo and 99 is his number for MotoGP races. The stock finish is seen nowhere, with fuel tank getting some part of the 99 monikers with a Red finish and devil horns.
The side fairing, however, gets remaining decals with R1 Anniversary Edition inspired theme and even a black R1 sticker. The rear winglets also get similar color additions while the front end is available with JL99 stickers and tinted windshield. The mod job is totally cosmetic and adds a pinch of the JL99 theme on the front fender too. Yamaha R15 is powered by a 155.1cc, single-cylinder engine, producing 19.3HP at 10,000 rpm and 15 Nm at 8,500 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Yamaha is offering features like LED lights and slipper clutch as standard.
