Yamaha Motor Indonesia has updated the Yamaha Aerox
155 R-Version with two new colours- Matte Silver and Racing Yellow. Yamaha
believes the new colour options will help attract more customers. The two
colour variants come with a price tag of IDR 24,550,000, on the road Jakarta.
Notable features of the Yamaha Aerox 155 R-Version
include sporty seats with premium stitching, 25 litre under seat storage, LED
headlight and tail lamp, and a 5.8 inch LCD instrument cluster. The R-Version
comes with 230 mm petal disc with ABS at the front, and twin rear gas-charged
shock absorbers. The front uses telescopic fork, and the rear wheel gets a drum
brake.
Powering the scooter is a 155.1 cc SOHC single
cylinder engine with liquid cooling and VVA technology. The powerplant puts out
14.95 PS of power at 8,000 rpm, and 13.8 Nm of torque at 6,250 rpm. The mill

The Matte Silver colour draws inspiration from the
Yamaha YZF-R1M and the Racing Yellow colour takes cues from Yamaha’s legendary
livery in MotoGP. Interestingly, in the Indian market, the S-Version was
spotted at a dealership, hinting at its launch in the country. The S-Version
comes with standard disc at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear.
