Back in the days when Yamaha launched its first R15 in India it changed the way of the indian consumer to look at the bikes it was very popular affordable sports bike in india and after with some updates Yamaha launched its version 2.0 with an LED tail light, sporty pillion seat and was more aggressive than the R15 V1 and now with the discontinuation of R15 V2 Yamaha launched its successor the R15 version 3.0 which is even more sleek than the V2 and is the sportiest motorcycle in india under 150cc segment and comes with a comfortable pillion seat as well.
