    Fun to ride machine 

    I am a happy owner of Yamaha R15S. Although the race riding position intensifies the fun of the riding, on the flipside, it may be a bit hard on the longer ride, especially for a person like me who is procrastinator and who sometimes suffers from backache. Furthermore, while this sporty suspension setup gives the vehicle superior cornering, it also tends to compromise the ride quality, making bumps just a bit jarring to passengers. Furthermore, the smaller fuel tank size requires meticulous planning before embarking on extended rides to prevent fuel exhaustion in isolated areas.

    Timeless Sportiness, Everyday Versatility 

    Yamaha R15S is a true symbol of the timelessness of sportiness; it effortlessly integrates the functionality and adaptability of the urban environment with the cutting-edge racetrack performance. While the small size of its 150cc engine may seem inadequate, the surprising fact is that it gives out a perfect combination of power and efficiency, making it an obvious choice of bike for users who appreciate both speed and utility purposes. Curved fairing design not just is only aerodynamic but also it add a racing faction to the streets.
