Recently Asked User Questions

Q. What is the Yamaha YZF R15 V3 and Yamaha R15 V4, which bike is shorter?
  • Both Yamaha R15 V4 and Yamaha YZF R15 V3 features a saddle height of 815 mm. However, the R15 V4 will be more comfortable here. The clip-on bars are positioned slightly higher and are now angled flatter, giving you a more relaxed seating posture which will prove valuable for everyday use and for longer rides. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Q. I'm confused between, R15 V4 and Gixxer SF 250?
  • Both the bikes are good in their forte. While the Gixxer SF 250 offers a sporty riding experience, it isn’t an out-and-out sportbike. It does offer an affordable, and potentially more fun, an alternative to the Honda CBR250R, making it a great option for more mature riders. Whereas, Yamaha R15 V4 by sticking to its engine has a proven suite of abilities - everyday usability, unintimidating but exciting performance, and low ownership costs. So, the Yamaha R15 is more appealing and more capable than before, and despite the higher price tag still very worthy of being the first sportbike for the budding biker. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read more -2021 Yamaha R15 V4 First Ride: Eternally Young?.
Q. Which to choose, R15 V4 or MT-15?
  • All-in-all we’d say the R15 V4 is a much better proposition, that is if you’re willing to stretch your budget. The MT-15 is a pretty good option as well if your commutes are mostly restricted within city limits. Of course, the ergos on the R15 are quite aggressive owing to its supersport pedigree. On the flip side, the MT-15 is more relaxed with a wider handlebar. Both bikes use the same VVA-equipped 155cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, however, there’s a minor difference in power figures. The R15 makes 18.4PS and 14.2Nm of peak torque as opposed to the MT which produces 18.5PS and 13.9Nm. The latter also uses a larger sprocket which offers more torque lower down the rev range, but this eats into its top-end performance. For a better understanding of performance and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

    Bajaj NS 400 : A Power-Packed Performer 

    The Bajaj NS 400 has been my daily companion for the past six months and it is quite the powerhouse. The bike's 400cc triple spark, 4 valve engine delivers a robust 44 horsepower and 35 Nm of torque, which means acceleration is brisk and there’s plenty of power on tap for overtaking and high speed cruising.Handling is another high point for the NS 400, thanks to its lightweight frame and responsive suspension setup. The bike feels agile and easy to maneuver, whether on busy city roads or open highways.

    Will be a high performer bike 

    There is no need to introduction of Bajaj NS which is a brillant bike in all the engine capacity and obivously 399 cc engine will hit in the market because the 200 cc engine also very great and high performer. It will come as a affordable 400 cc bike that will give us a very nice design and style and will come with full digital console and all LED lights and will come with the dual channel ABS. I feel it will be a high performer bike and the expected price is around 2 lakh.

    Yamaha R15S: A Balanced Ride  

    The Yamaha R15S has been part of my daily commute for the past few months. The model boasts a 149cc engine but with a comfortable unibody seat, it serves well for both solo and pillion riding a rare feature in sporty bikes. The power output feels just right for city and occasional highway rides, offering 16 PS which is sufficient for my needs.The drawback, lies in its somewhat outdated design compared to its sleeker cousins, the R15 V4 or MT 15.Also fuel efficiency is not the best in its segment.
