Yamaha is back with a bang! the R15 launched recently is already earning rave reviews across the spectrum. The racy styling, responsive engine and flawless handling easily makes the R15 an ideal bike for everyone who loves race. But all this made possible because of the tremendous engineering gone into the bike. R15 is the first indian bike to get designed with the assistance of wind tunnel. Not only it inspires styling from R15 but also it has all the superior technologies available in any R series bikes. Deltabox frame is said to be 200 times stiffer than the conventional double tube frame. That’s why you feel rock solid stability even at corners.
