For fans of Yamaha motorcycles, some of the most
aggressive styling comes from Vietnam, with the current 20th Anniversary
bodywork. For 2019, the Yamaha NVX 155 and the Yamaha
Y15ZR – sold in Vietnam as the Exciter 150 – get limited edition
Doxou bodywork in colours and graphics unique that market.
Setting the Doxou bodywork apart is the overall
matte blue paintwork combined with reddish bronze but even more outstanding is
the light blue wheel at back and black with blue stripe in front. This is set
off by the bold striping and Doxou graphics.
Aside from the Doxou graphics and colours, the Y15ZR
remains the same as the facelifted model with full LCD meter. The engine is
also the same, a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled mill displacing 150 cc, matched
to a five-speed gearbox and producing 15.4PS at 8,500 rpm and 13.8 Nm of torque
at 7,000 rpm.
Meanwhile, the NVX 155 scooter comes with a 155 cc
single-cylinder power plant that pumps out 14.8 hp at 8,000 rpm and 14.4 Nm of
torque at 6,000 rpm. The liquid-cooled engine comes with variable valve
actuation (VVA) and is fed by EFI, with power transmitted through a CVT
gearbox.
