    Dude R series never have facelifts!
    They have Yearly upgrade of the same segment..
    Like 09 model,08model etc!
    Or if done more there are limited edition paint jobs or new paint schemes.
    If there's another R cmin it would be surely a whole new R(xxx) model (e.g. R125 or R20 or R25 etc) insted of facelifted R15.
    Hope u understood!
    I understood it man..
    If there's a nre 'R' series model coming,then its worth atleast to keep an eye on it!
    Well,i rode R15 today for a good 3-4 kms and i was quite impressed. Just one problem arose,that is,pain in the wrists!

      R15 is a better choice and self satisfaction is much more in R15 than p220.
      Wrist pains - You will get used to it after some rides, when you can adjust yourself to the riding posture, initial wrist pain is due to riding posture.
      R15 lacks the low end torque , the torque king is p220, but as per handling - R15 hold the throne.

        The only news about upcoming R series is R125..
        Its a 125cc mill,better lukin,with all the yamaha goodies(handling,brekin etc) as in R15 but with lesser torque and power as being a 125ltr mill!

          I don't think there is any other R15 upgrade coming soon. And i don't really think the over-priced r125 with the smaller engine and lesser power is either going to make it to Indian shores. The price itself is prohibitive for Yamaha to bring the r125 to India.
