Features

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 Suzuki Gixxer SF 250

Pros

  • Comfortable riding position
  • Refined and tractable engine
  • Excellent ride quality

Cons

  • Basic instrument cluster
  • Premium pricing
  • Does not thrill with performance

Verdict

In India, it will go up against the likes of the Honda CBR250R, Yamaha Fazer25 and the KTC RC200 and at a price of ₹ 1.71 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), we believe the Gixxer SF 250 to be a solid purchase in its segment. It looks good, has decent performance and handles quite well too. It sporty enough to be ridden around switchbacks and can handle daily commuting too with equal aplomb. It may have entered a little late to the 250 cc - 400 cc segment but it is definitely a well-rounded package.
