Yamaha has launched
the 2019 YZF-R15 V3.0 with three new colours in the Indonesian market, namely
Racing Blue, Racing Yellow and Racing Black. The new model costs IDR 35,760,000.
The Indonesian-spec
model remains identical to the one present in the Indian market but it is
offered with a premium upside-down fork suspension at the front, while the
Indian-spec model is offered with traditional telescopic fork suspension. On
the flipside, the Indonesian-spec model doesn't feature ABS, while the
Indian-spec model is equipped with dual-channel ABS.
The
third-generation YZF-R15 V3.0 was launched in India at Auto Expo 2018. It comes
with Assist and Slipper clutch, Variable-Valve Actuation (VVA), fully digital display
with shift timer and many more new technologies. In January, dual-channel ABS
was introduced, and now, it is a standard safety feature.
The Yamaha R15
mounts a 155 cc liquid-cooled 4-valve engine which delivers 19.3 PS of maximum
power at 10,000 rpm and 14.7Nm of peak torque at 8500 rpm. The engine works in
conjunction with a 6-speed transmission. The bike generates its maximum power
significantly higher in the rev range, and VVA makes sure that the power surge
remains strong even when the engine is revving close to the red-line.
The bike is also
available with official accessories such as tank pad, skid plate, mobile
charger, frame slider, seat cover and Daytona exhaust muffler (only for race
circuit usage).
