Here's What People Ask About the Yamaha R15 V3 (Top 10 FAQs)
Top 10 FAQs about the Yamaha R15 V3 [Here’s What People Ask]: Yamaha R15 V3 is one of the most loved bikes in the Indian automobile industry. It is the third-generation model of the very popular R15 series and it is the original supersport that has been born out of the DNA that shaped legends like YZR-M1, YZF-R1, and the YZF-R6. Here are the Top 10 FAQs which are asked by most of the people about the Yamaha R15 V3 that we have tried to answer in the best possible way.
The BS4 model of YZF-R15 V3.0 was discontinued back in 2020 and it was available with a starting price tag of INR 1.41 lakhs. At present, the BS6-compliant model is available in India with a starting price tag of INR 1.52 lakhs. Here is the colour-wise price list of the BS6 Yamaha R15 V3:
The above-mentioned price list is ex-showroom India and the Monster Energy Edition is not available with a BS6-compliant engine.
In the case of the USD front forks, the slider sits at the bottom and the chrome part is on the top, whereas the case is completely opposite in the conventional telescopic forks. Although the repositioning does not make much difference yet USD forks handle better and provide better feedback.
On the contrary, the telescopic forks have basic architecture hence, easier to work with. Also, in case of an oil seal leak on an upside telescopic fork, the oil is likely to trickle onto your braking components whereas an oil leak on a telescopic fork will only ooze down the slider. According to the brand, the conventional telescopic forks on the Yamaha R15 V3 are better for Indian roads.
The powerful YZF-R15 V3 is one of the most sought after bikes that belong to the 150cc segment. In terms of mileage, you can expect the sportbike to deliver a mileage figure of around 30-35kmpl in the city and 40-45 kmpl on the highways. Please note that mileage is a very fluctuating thing and it varies a lot depending upon the weight of the rider, the tyre air pressure, the riding style, the condition of the bike, and the overall traffic conditions. The mileage figures we have mentioned are approximate and may vary.
The top speed of this 150cc segment sportbike is around 145km/h (speedometer reading). If we take the speedometer error into consideration, then the top speed of Yamaha R15 V3 hovers around 134 kmph. In terms of straight-line performance, the bike can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 12 seconds (approximate).
This one is the most-asked question and as far as we know, the Japanese brand has not announced anything regarding the next-gen model of R15 V3 but it is being rumoured that it would be launched as the R15 V4 and it is expected to be more powerful and lighter in comparison to the current-gen model. As far as the official launch is concerned, the Yamaha R15 V4 is expected to launch in India in 2022.
Currently, the Japanese brand is not looking forward to launching the yellow colour option for the R15 V3 sportbike. At present, the customers can choose from four colour options which include Metallic Red, Thunder Grey, Racing Blue, and Darknight. As Yamaha is offering Racing Yellow R15 V3 in some of the Asian countries, it is being rumoured that the brand may introduce the yellow shade in the Indian market as well later this year.
As of now, Yamaha is not offering the bike through CSD canteens but generally, there is a difference of 12-13% in the ex-showroom price and the price of the product that is being offered by the CSD canteen.
In most cases, the bike is readily available at the dealerships whereas if you are buying it during a festive season then you can expect to get the delivery within a time period of 7 to 15 days (approximate).
Although the bike is available at an ex-showroom price of INR 1.52 lakhs and by adding the RTO charges, the insurance and other state taxes, the customers need to pay around INR 1.80 lakhs (approx) in total. As the on-road price varies according to the state, we would suggest you visit your nearest authorized Yamaha dealership to get the exact price quote in your city.
The engine oil that will suit your bike will depend on your riding style. It also depends on the number of km that the bike has covered. If a city rider is buying the bike then he can go for Motul 5100 or 7100 while the grade would be 15w40 or 20w50. In the case of a highway rider, the Motul 300v is more suitable.
