A closer look at the most expensive variant of the Japanese supersport
Yamaha has finally launched the special edition R15M World GP 60th Anniversary Edition in India with a price tag of Rs 1,88,300 (ex-showroom Delhi). We have some exclusive photos of the bike from the dealer event to give you a glimpse of how the supersports looks in flesh.
The Yamaha R15M World GP 60th Anniversary Edition comes draped in the iconic white and red ‘Speed Block’ livery. This livery first made its debut in India with the R15 V2 50th Anniversary Edition back in 2012.
Yamaha has given a yellow colour to the fascia of this R15M, where generally the racing number of a race bike would go. Now, that would be perfect if you decide you take your bike for track days, right?

This is the only trim of the R15 on sale that features golden alloy wheels. The unique paint complements the gold-finished USD fork and adds to the premiumness of the model.
The World GP 60th Anniversary Edition comes with special seats with the ‘R15M’ logo stitched on the pillion seat.
The R15M gets the same 11-litre fuel tank; however, this model comes with a red racing stripe running across it and features gold-painted Yamaha logos.
This special edition R15M packs the same 155cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 18.4PS and 14.2Nm. It comes with a 6-speed gearbox mated to a slip-and-assist clutch.
The Yamaha R15M World GP 60th Anniversary Edition comes with traction control and quickshifter as standard. So, the Rs 3,000 extra you pay over the standard R15M is purely for cosmetic changes. Let us know in the comments if you think that this bike’s hefty price tag is justified.
Yamaha R15 V4 User Reviews
- Yamaha r15 v4 is a great fully faired sports bikeThe reason i chose this bike was quite a story in short, i was a student who was about get in college and i needed a bike to travel a quite moderate distance. When i was searching for a bike which is highly affordable as well as stylish on the looks and has great features too! Then i came across this masterpiece which was totally worth it. The ride is great so far. But there are few factors to look for if a beginner is going to buy this bike, as a fully fair bike the biggest issue would be comfort on long ride eg. Posture issue because of the aggressive stance fully fair bikes usually have. But for the short to moderate distance its great soo far. And handling also good, and mileage is better than expected. One more thing to consider, if someone lives in a crowded city like area they can this as this bike isn't a street fighter or naked body bike for city specific conditions. I would absolutely recommend this bike to even a beginner who want to get a thrilling ride experience of a fully fair bike at price rang as low as this, mileage also great compared to other similar bikes, great handling too, maintenance is also fairly rated i would say, totally worth it!Read More2 1
