Yamaha R15S price is minimum Rs 16,500 lesser than the R15 V4. The Matte Black colour joins the current Racing Blue option…
So, a few months back, we shared a speculative report that Yamaha are planning to add a new colour scheme to their friendly R15 S v3 sportbike.
Now it has come true, as Yamaha have added a ‘Matte Black’ colour scheme to the R15 S v3 motorcycle. It goes in addition to the existing Racing Blue colour that is already on sale.

The Yamaha R15 S Version 3.0 is the ‘friendlier’ version of the aggressive (and costlier) R15 v4/M siblings, offering relaxed riding ergonomics and ‘Unibody Seat’ – which is a fancy description of a single-unit stepped seat design.
