With all the ‘R’ hallmarks, the YZF-R15 will appeal to riders keen to own a
piece of race bred heritage. And with a high level of user friendliness, the
R15 will also appeal to riders who need to ride a motorcycle every day.
R15 designs were developed in the same modeling room where YZF-R1 designers
worked and information was shared, ensuring that the ‘R’ lineage was passed
on. The new model also incorporates practical features such as a comfortable
riding position for both pilot and pillion.
With the ability to cruise at 120kmh plus and return an average fuel
consumption of around 45kms per litre, the R15 blends performance,
reliability and low running costs. It is designed to appeal to riders
looking for a practical motorcycle for every day riding that sports R-series
trademark sharp looks.
Tech heads are well catered for with a 150cc liquid cooled and fuel
injected engine slotting into a Deltabox chassis boasting linked monocross
suspension. R15 bristles with state-of-the-art technology also seen on the
world’s best supersport bikes, such as a forged aluminium piston running in
an all aluminium DiASil cylinder which offers the benefits of light weight,
great heat dissipation, less oil consumption and high levels of wear
resistance.
