Yamaha YZF R15 V3 BS6 2019-2022

Being a flagship of Yamaha, people tend to have a lot of expectations. This nerd’s engine can churn out 18.6PS@10000rpm and 14.1Nm@8500rpm. This is crossed with a 6-speed transmission. These engine specs seem to convince a lot of people. As per Yamaha’s claim, this bike can produce 155 cc, which is pretty much good and expected. Flagship bikes tend to offer a new feature as far as the clutch part is concerned. Here, Yamaha has tried to reduce the weight of the clutch pull and provide low-stress shifting during deceleration. To achieve this, Yamaha has introduced a system of Assist and Slipper clutch. With this, one can experience a smooth shifting of gears. In addition to this, to ensure good power and torque, Yamaha uses a system called VVA meaning Variable Valves Actuation. By looking at the engine spec sheet, it is pretty clear that Yamaha YZF-R15 V3 BS6 can give a satisfactory ride.

Being a flagship bike, it is a necessity to have an Anti-Lock Braking System(ABS) and YZF-R15 V3 BS6 does, with 282mm front and 220mm rear disc brakes.

By convention, Yamaha bikes these days have an In-Built Side Stand Engine cut-off Switch. This trend continues even with the YZF R15 V3 BS6. In a nutshell, there’s not much progress to talk about the tyres and brakes, but still, they can serve their purpose. 

The YZF-R15-V3 BS6 comes with a new Delta box frame. This helps massively in providing rigidity balance. Gone are the days, where people need to remember which gear they are currently in.

These features make the YZF R15 BS6 a superior one.
