Yamaha Motor India Sales (YMIS) has launched new paint shades and body graphics for its R15 version 2.0 bike. There will be on offer, four new colours – Invincible Black, Raring Red, Grid Gold And Racing Blue.
 
The new models have been developed as per Bharat Stage IV (BS IV) emission norms.
The Yamaha R15 version 2.0 is powered by a 149.8cc, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine that makes 16.8bhp.
The black and red colour schemes cost Rs 1,10,003 (ex-showroom, Delhi) while the blue and gold editions are priced at Rs 1,12,924 (ex-showroom, Delhi). 
 
Roy Kurian, vice president, sales and marketing, YMIS, said, " “It has been our hallmark to innovate and introduce products that have a strong connect with our customer base. The ‘R15’ has been a significant milestone in that sense in the company’s history and the torchbearer to introduce and promote racing culture in India. The racing DNA, sporty look and superior technology have been synonymous with the R15 which was graded up to R15 Ver 2.0 in 2011. A lot of thought and hard-work had gone into the conceptualisation of the R15 and it has been a huge success for the company. As we launch the R15 Ver 2.0 in four new avatars, we are again very confident that this new introduction will help to keep the customer excitement intact in our flagship motorcycle.”
