Finally Yamaha got it R15 with broad back tyre and splitted seat arrangement. Yamaha has finally launched the updated version of their 150cc Supersport offering , the 2011 R15 Version 2.0 in the Indian market at Rs 1.07 lakh , ex-showroom , Delhi. the R15 version 2.0 boasts of spruced up looks and better performance in circuit riding. The design elements are borrowed from the supersport model YZF-R1 that is adapted from YZR-M1 MotoGP race machine. I think this will really boost the sales of this bike and it does have very good performance as well.
1. Revised rear end design
2. Split seats for sporty looks
3. New LED tail lamps
4. New fatter tyres - front and rear
5. Changs to specs of the Engine Control unit (ECU) , drivetrain unit , a long aluminum swing arm.
6. New exhaust pipe & silencer specs.
7. The newly designed middle cowl features improved aerodynamic performance at higher speeds - the aerodynamic resistance value is 4% better than that of the existing YZF-R15.
8. A larger 220mm diameter rear disc brake has been adopted to achieve a better balance with the new rear tire size and ensure good braking power.
9. Another interesting aspect of the bike is the mud guard and sari guard attached to the swing arm which enhances the exterior design product value. The new design of 5-spoke cast wheels achieves the necessary strength balance while creating a sense of lightness at the same time.
The new 2011 Yamaha R15 version 2.0 goes on sale now in three colors.
This is looking great, this was a required change cause the R15 was having really having a very slim tyre which wasn't giving a complete look of a sports bike, it always seemed that back tyre should have been more broad and yamaha has listened to buyers.
