Like other markets, Yamaha WR155 in Philippines has been placed slightly over the XSR155. It is an off-roader on the popular 155 platform…
The Japanese automaker – Yamaha has been very aggressive in the Philippines market. It recently launched the newly unveiled XSR 155 and NMax scooter in the market. In a latest, these have been followed up by the WR155R in the Southeast Asian country.
WR155 is again a very new motorcycle. It is an off-roader/dual-sport bike that allows you to ride it on the roads as well as off it.
It shares its engine with the R15, MT-15, XSR 155, and Nmax. However, it is re-tuned to support its application and produces 16 hp of peak power. The motor is mated to a six-speed gearbox.
As expected from a dirt bike, WR155 gets high-ground clearance, spoke wheels, and a long single-seat to accommodate the rider. Apart from that, it comes with a bare-bones design with minimal body panels. WR155 also features a halogen bulb powered headlamp and indicators.
