Yamaha R15 V4
The Yamaha R15 V4 is powered by a 155cc, liquid-cooled engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) that makes 18.4PS and 14.2Nm. VVA helps in ensuring a balance between low-end grunt and top-end drive. The Yamaha R15 is well-known for its performance and excellent handling, making this track-friendly a great machine to learn and improve riding skills.
The riding posture is aggressive, so it may not be suitable for those looking for a laidback riding experience. If you're one of them, then you may look at the retro Yamaha XSR 155. But if you're a fan of Yamaha faired bikes, then you'd be glad to know that the brand might launch the Yamaha R2 soon, as trademark filings have surfaced online.
