Oh well, its 150cc after all,
i guess they've increased power to around 18-18.6 with the help of engine tuning, new exhaust and ECU remap.
My only wish now is that the new r15 is not slower than the older model.
If so,
I WILL BECOME A LAUGHING STOCK..

I have been waiting for this bike for the past 8 months.
I have to acknowledge the split seats, it looks really really awesome. Im really excited!
Lets just hope both performance and handling manage to impress.
Imagine a joel bore kit on this bike!

Why would you become a laughing stock, you made or designed the bike?

Sounds similar to the stuff that Hero Honda did to give looks to Karizma ZMR.. Fuel injection and Bigger fairing a little improvement in power which was of no use due to increase in weight!! The only difference is that R15 looks hotter than ZMR any day, any version!!

Hi XBHPians
Got an info from an insider, that the bike speculated(in image) is not R15 BUT its R18. YES 180cc yamaha.... specs not disclosed

And another info is FZ gettin 250cc Heart!(the FZ being tested with R18)
I believe its true....lets watch

[Maestro]

So that makes it two 150cc 6 geared bikes getting upgraded to 180cc mills this year......(only if rumors are true)

Hi Maestro
Did you mean Suzuki GS 150R??
Don't know that its going to get upgraded to 180cc

But A Suzuki 250cc is on the way!!

[Blumarine005]

So many speculations!!!!!!!!!!!!

R15/R16/now R18?????? People are really going crazy about the yammie. I have decided to wait till auto expo 2012(heard somethime back that suzuki and yamaha launching naked 250cc bikes). If something interests me, would go for it or else would Joel my ZMA.

Can't handle this confusion anymore?
