Following tons of rumors and speculations, the all-new Yamaha R15 V4.0 has finally made its way to the Indian market. This 155cc supersport motorcycle has a number of first-in-segment features and is officially available across all the dealerships in India.
The motorcycle is now launched in 3 colors: Racing Blue, Dark Knight, and Metallic Red.
Yamaha R15 v4.0
Unlike the previous v3 model, this one comes with a horizontal design line as we could witness in the YZF-R1. This new design gives a more sporty and muscular look to the bike. The new YZF-R15 uses a single bi‐functional Class-D LED headlight that also emphasizes the presence of the M-shaped intake duct.
For improved cornering and cornering performance, the new YZF-R15 equips an upside-down front fork with 37mm inner tubes for higher rigidity. Similarly, a newly designed front suspension provides a perfect strength-rigidity balance to perform great at uneven surfaces.

Powering the 2021 YZF-R15 is a 155cc 4-stroke liquid-cooled SOHC 4-valve engine delivering a peak power of 18.4PS at 10,000rpm alongside a peak torque of 14.2Nm at 7500 rpm. The VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) motor of the bike is mated to a 6-speed gearbox transmission.
Moreover, the new R15 v4.0 is also the first small-displacement motorcycle to feature a Traction Control System that helps to control the power output and avoid excessive slippage. This one also features a premium quick-shifter for smooth, clutchless, upshifts.
