Yamaha R15 V3 Monster Edition

YAMAHA The Japanese automobile manufacturer’s motto “Revs Your Heart,” is in its truest form in the YZF R15 from the company in Bangladesh. If you are a Bangladeshi biker, or else, a biker from the subcontinent, you must know the meaning very well.

YAMAHA has recently updated their R15 bike once again from top to bottom. The 150cc segment bike has its own league in the market with, we can say a cult following. It is one of the most popular and famous racing bikes now in Bangladesh. It is a dream bike for the young generation.

The bike is now in its third avatar and called the YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0. The “Monster Edition” comes with liveries that are derived from the MotoGP bike as the title sponsor of that bike is Monster Energy. Everything else is the same as the Indian edition. Not just power it comes with awesome looks. See pictures of the Yamaha R15 v3 monster edition here. 

History: YAMAHA YZF R15 was launched back in 2008 to meet the demands of the young enthusiast bikers. Since its inception, it has been a machine that gives the riders a full package of performance and reliability. Not only comfort but also the power that will make your heart energetic.

Different upgrades, either mechanical and/or cosmetic have been made to this bike to the ever-expanding demands of the market. The latest version 3.0 R15 was launched back in January 2017 in Indonesia and then in the 2018 Auto Expo in India.

It has got an engine upgrade and also a newly shaped body for differentiating it from the other models which are thriving in the streets till date. You will easily be able to distinguish it as version 3.0 from any given angle. The Monster Edition hence is even more distinctive and surely will make you stand out in the streets.

Features: To be honest about the YAMAHA R15 version 3.0, the whole bike is new with a revamped engineering from the ground up cause it is the R15 Monster.

This new version now comes with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) technology. It also has got a slipper clutch now to help the rider do quick shifts in gear for better performance. Other features are described in a nutshell below.

The bike has now got Dual Channel ABS for better braking performance with ensured safety. There is a new LED headlight and taillight set, a new instrument cluster, a more aggressive yet aerodynamic body and so more. The headlight is so clear and the style of the taillight is really awesome. The graphical work of the bike is really attractive and eye-catchy.

The only catch though is the Indian version is that as it is modified to suit the Indian subcontinent’s streets, there is no USD forks upfront and so it gets a telescopic set, which is honestly, very playful for our general road conditions.

The engine sound of the Yamaha R15 V3 is really awesome and it makes your soul energetic. I am a really big fan of the sound and its speed and power. The YAMAHA-patented “Deltabox” frame is still present and upgraded to give the best possible performance.

The color options of this bike are all very attractive in the Indian and Indonesian editions. But the Monster Energy edition is only available in the trademark Black & Blue color and the color is really awesome.

The bike has a new graphical presentation in its body that enhances the presence of the bike combined with the new panels and iconic graphics. The distinct LED taillight is also a charm to look at and helps instantly recognize an R15 Version 3.0 Monster Energy edition even in the night from a distance.

Body Dimensions: The all-new YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0 is a really good performing motorcycle. The wheelbase is 1325mm on which the 142kg bike stands. The bike is balanced amazingly with the “Deltabox” frame. The bike has an 11-liter fuel tank that feeds the engine through the Fuel Injection system. 

The overall length of YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0 is 1990mm while the width and height are 725mm and 1135mm respectively. The ground clearance stands at 170mm which is perfect for all aged riders.

Engine & Transmission: YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0 possesses a 155cc, 4-Stroke, single-cylinder, SOHC, Liquid-cooled 4-valve engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA). If you want speed then I think Yamaha R15 V3 is one of the best ones as far as I see. 

This engine’s Power & Torque figures are as follows: 19.3 PS @10,000 RPM & 14.7Nm @8500 RPM. This machine is paired with a 6-speed transmission with a wet sump multi-plate slipper clutch and comes equipped with TCI (Transistor Controlled Ignition) system. The engine oil capacity is 1.05L

Suspension, Brakes, Wheels: The suspension system of this bike has a dual telescopic system upfront with 130mm wheel travel and a link suspension Swingarm at the rear with 97mm of wheel travel. The front brake is a 282 mm Disc paired to the 5*2-spoke alloy wheel with 100/80-17M/C 52P MRF Nylogrip ZAPPER-FX1 tire. 

The rear brake is a 220mm Disc attached to the 5*2-spoke alloy wheel that is wrapped in 140/70-17M/C 66H MRF Nylogrip ZAPPER-S tire. Both the wheels have the tubeless tire for better performance and to avoid sudden deflation along with Antilock Braking System (ABS). The wheel of the bike is really grippy.

Best For:  The YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0 is targeted at the youth of the country yet it is also usable by the middle-aged too. City riding is very much doable on this motorcycle. Not only city riding it is great for touring. I think by seeing riding posture, speed and power it is the best bike and also perfect for touring. 

College and university students and passionate young job holders are the main customers of this motorcycle. Some middle-aged users also use this bike daily for their sheer passion for riding bikes. The bike has now got Dual Channel ABS for better braking performance with ensured safety.

The motorcycle is really very good at highway speeds and it easily allows the user to do inter-city commutes thanks to its powerful engine. So, you can do long rides with immense confidence. If you list some monster bikes in our country then Yamaha R15 V3 is one of them. The motto of this bike is awesome “Revs Your Heart,”.

The competitors are having a tough fight from YAMAHA YZF R15 Version 3.0 Monster Energy for their price as it ticks nearly all the boxes at a time questionable by the customers of this class. You can see the R15 V3 monster price in Bangladesh here with the competitors.
