Yamaha YZF-R15

Yamaha has launched 150cc YZF R15, which has a profusion of magnetic power with its advanced racing technology designed to give the best performance. The new Yamaha YZF-R15 is designed in such a way so as to give best performance and better mileage, apart from the look of the sport bike. There have been complaints about the tyres being small. But the bike has good grip on the road, especially during rains. So far so good save the small tyres, a matter which is more concerned with the bike buffs.
