i love this brand and specially this Yamaha r15
this is not a bike its a dream of every boys and this r15 is a not a model of Yamaha this is us emotion and the r 15 is a legacy and the main point is this look mileage and the segment killer up to 250cc. mileage good looks is too much good and maintain easily and but the top model like M and monster edition you got a good futuristic display and the graphic of sticker are good and you after sitting this bike you feel like you sit a super bike and i got for my r15 bike 42 to 49 mileage. most recommended i love this brand and there all bike are good and you can afford this bike and good quality and value for money you can buy this beast and enjoy your ride this bike and stay safe all time wear helmet.

Pocket rocket on the roads
It has great features and has the power. Riding it never feels lonely it delivers the exact amount of power. I was more into sports bike category so I went for r15 v4 which is economical and yet powerful. The ride quality feels great till now being a sports bike comforts lack on a side. But the outcome of engine makes you feel driven. It delivers more than it should. Handling on R15v4 is good at high speeds. I never felt under confident while cornering and high speeds. I would recommend this bike to the ones who are more into sports bike as the comfort part on this bike lacks a little bit but as is a sports bike. It has decent amount of power which you can actually feel while riding it.

Very satisfied 👍🏻
Got from a ktm showroom nearby. 6 months, running well. Surely locks all eyes on. Feels cool to ride around. Was told that back pain can occur. 5’10, and I’m quite comfortable with the ride so far. Maximum at a stretch 30km I have drove. Felt comfortable. Mileage is the only concern. But overall, when you sit on it and start riding, you’ll feel like a boss. Trust me.
