Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

i believe If R25 is launched in india, we may witness a lower compression bike somewhere around 10.7:1 in order to ensure that the engine knocking doesn't take place due to fuel adulteration outside the major city premises. Guys please correct me if i am wrong on this: international model KTM 390 has a higher compression ratio somewhere around 12.6:1 recommending 95 RON whereas the indian model has a lower compression ratio?

Cheers,

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Well then I will ride my R15 when in the cornering mood. And the R25 when going out for long rides. I am ready to enjoy the best of both worlds as I'm not selling my loved R15 at all.

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Yamaha designed the R25 to be a fantastic everyday bike for the world.

It'll be a gem too. But in the lines of practicality, not corner craving.



Bottom line: R15 is still the best looking motorcycle on the face of this planet. :P

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Wont be surprised if you are disappointed.

R6 being less powerful and lighter still corners much much better than the mighty R1. True story.

R15 corners like a gem. Yupp. N250r doesn't. CBR250r doesnt. So will not the R25.
Reason: Those tubes and that low seat height will make it a better tourer than an agile track tool.
Being more powerful doesn't make it easy to corner. As a matter of fact, you might not even have a higher exist speed just because the engine is powerful.

The R15, especially the version 2, was chiselled into corner carving. Focussed much more to make better lean angles.

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Whatever maybe the price Yamaha puts it, I just hope it can be as much or more fun like R15 while doing those cornerings. Just hope that the handling will be super crisp because of that tubular diamond frame. Yamaha launch it sooner, cause we will not be able to hold our breath for so long.

I never gave such wrong info duffer, I rather prompted that such info of a single R25 has been imported in India was shared by Meghan of gaadi.com.
In the article he mentioned about the cargo charges, and so super duper flop bloggers of India didnt took time to claim a false report on it, and secondly Meghan suggested that R&D Yamaha India has imported it to check, innovate and test the bike for Indian conditions.

So ya cant speculate rather cant spread a false rumor on which street will it be tested, but yes Haryana plant may be working on it, so be ready with cams and cameras and bazooka lenses, kaun kahan kab dikh jaye {Trans: who, where when you can see what ]

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Yup its 12k.

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Hey I think the recommended oil change/oil filter change interval in the manual for the N250R is 12K ? Spark plugs at around 18-19 k, at least going by Kawi forums worldwide?

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

hm now thats another important thing i was also thinking

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Even though price discussion might have come to an end see this link




Imported at Delhi valued at 2.2l so if its an CKD add 25% tax(not sure) .
If its manufactured fully in India its surely 2.2l with maximum localisation .
P.S discussing about price to calculate the bucks we should save to opt one.

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

off topic, but just wanted to remark that actually from what i have seen being written by owners worldwide in the internet, these european companies' bikes dont usually or necessarily have that uncompromised quality and built as the japanese four, and still cost several thousand euros and dollars more...the MVs have been known to be very finicky in way too many cases, and so have many of the triumphs, ducatis, aprilias and bmw, and also ktms if you consider their non off-road products...of course, many of the japanese bikes also have had frequent issues or major issues, but all that matters is the statistical weight of all that and statistically the japanese always seem to have more reliability, better built and better overall ability to endure riding them rough and fast frequently with lesser nautanki and maintenance..

unless by quality you meant only the engine horsepower and such, in which case yes most of european bikes have probably been faster than their japanese counterparts in the same cc or style/category segment, particularly in the last 5-6 years the europeans have usually built "faster" bikes, but many people say that's also because the japanese stopped concentrating on their high end bikes ever since the recession hit them hard..anyways :-)

Re: Yamaha R25 Launched in Indonesia

Ninja's 250R/300 have service interval of 6000 kms. So plz never compare the service cost of Ninja with KTM.

Triumphs have indeed 10K kms of service interval only after 1st servicing.

R15s have only 3000Kms of service interval.

About the parts pricing, the Duke-200 is cheaper than R15.

Being R25 a twin, the service interval may be 5k-6K.
