Default New R15 LAUNCH TOO?

Dear friends,i dont want to create any big rumour but just want to confirm if anyone has any idea about this or not.I read in one newspaper where news of many company's results had been given and in Yamaha's column it was given that Mr. Tsuji(CEO- INDIA YAMAHA MOTOR) has said that he was extremely delighted by company's performance in june and further stated that to continue its progress in premium segment they will launch two new bike in this week namely Fazer and YZY-R15,now can anyone clear whats it all about.I tried to confirm my dealer friend but he said he has no idea about it,may be it is a surprise package they will get to know about in fazer's launch,but told that he had heard something about new colour in R15(black with new graphics),but what is this YZY-R15

YZY-R15 might be the brother of YZF-R15...
I heard R15 having a 125cc engine is going to hit the indian roads

Could be no fairing or half fairing version of R15 .. which seems very much possible as per Yamaha's recent launches ..

This seems unlikely, as R6 & R1 have no such versions ... FZ6 sure has!

I too heard from some unofficial sources that there is going to be a faster R15 to compete with new P220, and this is some 15-20 days back ...

I guess, it maybe the new R15 with the performance kit parts, all except the Exhaust & Race ECU ...

For YAMAHA..its not the condition..
they just want to try their luck in a booming market..they are already established worldwide..
and proven themselves..
they can simply degrade their..high end bikes..as per indian road conditions..and make profit from it..no need to invest much..use existing technology ..so i dont think they have high production cost or somethin like that..so..high prize for high production cost..is somethin i cant digest..
then the question is..
why shud they look to penetrate the market where there are already very strong players competiting neck to neck...
i m just happy that..we get worldclass technology..and reliability
plus one of the best international brand name..best looking bikes on road...at few k more than other bikes which are still evolving..undergoin updations and research..
yamaha customer base is different..they know that..
thats why they dont need to think of other bikes ka prizing..look at rx100..not a single 100cc bike came closer to it..till now..

and then they tried to compete wid herohondas and all..with lower cc bikes..they screwed...themselves..
now they have better strategy..
they dont need to establish themselves here as a maximum sellin motorcycle..in india..they are achieving that somewhere else...they are exploring the most ignored part of indian biking market..exclusivity..looks..styling..
they just want to make profit of the world's most happening.. motorcycle market..
wel..
abt the performance..performance wise..bike is best in its segment..
a lightweight 150 cc bike..with best pickup..widest tyres..monoshock..and this explains compromised milage and topspeed....so at that prize u have the best bike in its class...why go for something at less prize goin to give more..but..not the best it can give...yamaha are givin top speed of wat other bike manufacturer were not able to give with bigger engine..till few days back..so..if u compare this ..prize justifies everythin..
yamaha are actually giving more in less...performance wise..and thats why they cost more...


others giving less in more...so they can afford to slice prizes...

this is my personal opinion..
plzz dont draw any conclusions..but..do correct me if i m wrong..

---
Hey I think you have it right here...for Yamaha India is an expirement..not for others..
frankly just think the Japs in Yamaha/Honda are no fools..atleast they must know something more than we 13000 bikers right???
just wait and watch..thats what I feel..
the battle has just begun...
