2019 Yamaha YZF-R15 gets new colours in Indonesia

For the Indonesia market, official Yamaha distributors PT Yamaha Indonesia has launched three new colours for the 2019 Yamaha YZF-R15. These are Blue, Yellow and Black, and come with new graphics to go compete in the hotly contested 150 cc market in Indonesia.

Aside from the colours and graphics, there are no changes to the Indonesia market R15, still powered by a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder 155 cc mill with VVA, producing 19.5 hp and 15 Nm of torque. Power is transmitted through a six-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch, with chain final drive.

Specifications for the R15 in Indonesia are identical to the Malaysian model with upside-down forks, monoshock and wider rear tyre – 100/80-17 in front, 140/70-17 at the back. Braking uses a single 282 mm disc on the front wheel, 220 mm disc in the rear and everything held together with a Deltabox frame and aluminium swingarm.

Inside the cockpit is a monochrome LCD instrument panel that displays engine speed, road speed, odometer, fuel consumption, gear position, fuel level and the usual warning lights. Aside from that, the panel is also equipped with a shift light and LED lighting is used for the headlight and tail light.
