Pros Cons of Yamaha YZF R15 V4.0

Pros

Sharp and aggressive styling inspired by the Yamaha YZF-R7, giving it a premium look
Advanced features like traction control, dual-channel ABS, and upside-down forks enhance riding safety and dynamics
Lightweight 155 cc engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) offers good performance and a wide powerband

Cons

High pricing for a 155 cc bike, competing with 250 cc models like the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250
The committed riding position may be uncomfortable for long-distance rides
Pillion seat remains high, which could be inconvenient for frequent two-up riding

Verdict

The Yamaha YZF-R15 V4 remains one of the most dynamically sorted motorcycles in the 150-160 cc segment, offering an impressive package of performance, handling, and premium features. While its relatively high price may deter some buyers, its sharp styling, advanced tech, and engaging ride quality make it worth the investment for sportbike enthusiasts. However, for those seeking long-distance comfort or more engine displacement, there may be better options at a similar price point.

Pros Cons Ducati SuperSport

Pros

Looks sharp
Torque-friendly motor
Handles like a charm

Cons

Too dedicated riding posture
Vibrations can be annoying
Can get a little hot in city speeds

Verdict

The new Ducati SuperSport will certainly appeal to those looking to upgrade to a full-faired Ducati sportbike, without compromising on ergonomics or comfort for regular use. The Ducati SuperSport certainly makes a very good example for an easy to ride Ducati sportbike with entertaining performance for the experienced rider, and that itself makes a very good case to consider one. Starting at ₹ 12.08, it's certainly not entry-level pricing, and that is the only downside we could think of.
