Today Morning 3 BNers spotted a set of 6 R 15’s on Pune roads. 3 Black and 3 racing Blue.
They had blanked out the damn decals and logos on the bike and were all
wearing YAMAHA T shirts.
Riders were of small built like small children nimble and tiny.
Wearing BRAND NEW helmets, some with the product tags and bar code stickers
still on them.
Chased them and observed the bikes up close and personal.
Bike has good pick up..a throaty rumbling sound a-la- RTR 160..and LOUSY
HORN..i mean..even a small cat wouldn’t get scared with the tiny beep beep…
Confirmed from sources that these bike shall be tested in pune for some time
and should hit Mumbai next week.
Launch confirmed in June 2008.
The bike is likely to be more powerful than expected and is also likely to be not having very high RPMs as predicted by many. YAMAHA still hasn’t come out with the official statistics of the bike and the bike would be costing around 96,000/- ex-showroom in Pune.
More updates on the bike as we get them.
