New Sport Yamaha R15

Written By dtechno on Kamis, 09 Desember 2010 | 16.32

Yamaha are releasing in early 2011 the R15, a single cylinder sports styled 150cc machine. Looking like a mini me version of the R1, the R15 is sure to be popular with first time riders looking for a bit of sportsbike styling. The best part of the R15, it's low, low price, reportedly only $3990 plus whatever on road costs that may be applicable, and it really is a good lookin little machine.

Whether the 150cc single cylinder engine will match the styling isn't clear, no horsepower specs have been released here yet. But expect less than 20hp, possibly around 17 from overseas reports.

Still, it is equipped with the latest tech like a liquid cooled, fuel injected, 4 valve per cylinder engine, "Deltabox inspired" frame, and monocross style rear suspension. Front end wears standard "right way up" forks, with a single disc. Wet weight is quoted at 131kg full of fuel, all 12 litres of it. Electric start, 6 speed gearbox, and a seat height of 790mm are other things you may need to know.
The R15 will be available in two colours - Blue or Black, will have a 12 month warranty. It is expected to be available in February 2011 with the RRP of $3990 plus usual on roads.
Yamaha had this tricked up Lorenzo tribute bike for the Melbourne show, no plans for a production version though.
