The NEW YAMAHA R15 and R15M embody Yamaha’s commitment to performance, precision, and rider confidence, delivering an elevated experience in the 155 cc sport segment. Under the concept “BORN TO BE ONE”, both models are engineered to provide responsive acceleration and dynamic handling, empowering riders to push beyond limits with confidence.
The NEW YAMAHA R15 has been enhanced with improved performance and safety, most notably through the addition of a Dual Channel ABS system, which helps prevent wheel lock during sudden braking and ensures greater stability and control. It is further complemented by updated graphic designs that amplify its aggressive and sporty character.
The NEW YAMAHA R15M, a special edition commemorating the 70th anniversary of Yamaha Motor, elevates the riding experience with a more premium and performance-focused identity. Designed to reflect the highest level of sport DNA in its class, it offers riders a more refined and exclusive experience, supported by an extended warranty of up to 5 years or 50,000 kilometers.
Both models are powered by a 155 cc single-cylinder, 4-valve engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA), delivering strong and consistent performance across all speed ranges. The engine is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and an Assist & Slipper Clutch, which reduces rear-wheel hop during aggressive downshifting, ensuring smoother deceleration and improved control.
In terms of suspension, the motorcycles are equipped with upside-down (USD) front forks, enhancing shock absorption and providing sharper cornering performance in line with Yamaha’s R-Series DNA. Large disc brakes combined with the Dual Channel ABS system further enhance braking confidence across all riding conditions.
The design is highlighted by a FULL LED TWIN-EYES headlight system with Daytime Running Lights (DRL), a signature element of the R-Series, along with a Mono Focus LED projector that delivers superior visibility. Additionally, both models feature the Y-Connect Application, enabling seamless smartphone connectivity and access to up to nine riding and vehicle data functions, enhancing convenience for modern riders.
Together, the NEW YAMAHA R15 and R15M deliver a compelling combination of performance, advanced safety, and cutting-edge design—perfectly suited for riders seeking to experience the essence of sport riding in its purest form.
In addition, Thai Yamaha Motor is commemorating a significant milestone—the 70th anniversary of Yamaha Motor—with the introduction of the NEW R15M 70th Anniversary edition. This special model draws inspiration from the first-generation R1, the origin of the R-Series supersport lineage, and is equipped with exclusive superbike-level features, including:
- ALUMINUM DIE-CAST SWINGARM: A silver-finished, die-cast aluminum swingarm that reflects the sporty DNA of the flagship R1M
