    • KTMs arent the fill it and shut it Jap bikes, they can be a bit of ***** to maintain at times. Anyone going for a KTM should keep this in mind! I would stay away from them in India specially when Bajaj is providing the servicing bit!

                This is really weird. Another member got a confirmation that new R15 is being released. And today they say no plans!

                  Really? KTM bikes have actually won the Toughest Rally in the world, the "Dakar Rally" for 10 straight years now.

                  Moreover KTM is the most respected name in off road bikes, the kind of bikes which gets thrashed in the severest way possible than the "fill it, shut it, forget it" type of bikes.

                  I say, let it arrive in India first and then decide whether it's worth being crucified.

                      Thanks aman. One qt. - So they confirmed the upgraded r15 news, but not sure about the launch date ?

                      I value functionality more over aesthetics, although a wider tyre wud look better. As payeng said, if its yamaha factory fitted then be assured they must have tested it vigourously as you know yamaha doesn't compromise on functionality. Retrofitting wider tyre just for looks is out of question.

                      I am really confused now.
                      Either this 2011 r15 launch is just a speculation OR
                      Yamaha has got the marketing strategy wrong. Most bike vendors first create hype about the new bike and then launch it(Zma,Zmr,p220,etc) whereas here yamaha is doin the opposite.

                      For prospective r15 owners it makes sense to wait a bit(if the launch is confirmed) even if the upgrade is cosmetic only.

                        None of the companies mentioned above made any "official announcements".

                        The speculation are all due to forums/amateur blogs/speculative articles from publications. By the way, even this thread is called "Speculation thread".

                        • if yamaha is not releasing new R15 then why have they stopped bookings....they could have simply denied these speculations if its not true instead of keeping us confused

                            here's what...

                            Yamaha dealers don't have stock of the R15 for a reason.

                            they're stocked up with the FZ, the FZs and the Fazer but not the R15.


                            how long you want to wait is entirely up to you...

                            but a new R15 is coming. guaranteed!

                                Yamaha dealers don't have stock of the R15 for a reason.

                                they're stocked up with the FZ, the FZs and the Fazer but not the R15.


                                how long you want to wait is entirely up to you...

                                but a new R15 is coming. guaranteed!
