New entry into the Thailand market is the 2019 Yamaha XSR 155, priced at 91,500 Thai baht (RM12,364). This naked sports comes in retro styling and is targetted to the young rider looking for something different from the Yamaha MT-15 or YZF-R15.
Carrying the Yamaha VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) liquid-cooled, single-cylinder power plant displacing 155 cc, Yamaha Thailand did not supply any power or torque numbers for the XSR 155. However, based on the R15 which comes with a similar engine, a figure of 19.3 hp with 15 Nm of torque would not be out of the question.
Fuelling is by EFI while power gets tot the ground via a six-speed gearbox and chain final drive. 10 litres of fuel is carried in the tank while seat height is 810 mm off the ground and the XSR 155 has a claimed weight of 134 kg.
Suspension is with telescopic forks in front and a monoshock at the back, adjustable for preload. Braking is done with a single disc front and rear, with hydraulic callipers.
There are four colour options for the 2019 Yamaha XSR 155 – Premium Grey, White/Red Sports Heritage, Black Elegance and Green Wanderlust. Rolling on 17-inch alloy wheels, the XSR 155 is shod with 110/70 rubber in front and 140/70 at the back.
Dear Yamaha please force HL to market this model here..
Yamaha popular due to common parts old R15=FZ=LC135=Y15 most foremen workshop easy to manage..
new R15=XSR=NVX.
If HL not able to manage then Yamaha must sell this model without HL
That’s why Yamaha is the most stolen brand in Malaysia. Every thief knows it easy to share parts, no need to check what Yamaha to steal.
HL not that bad. At least they do launch latest models. Don’t be like DRB. All tidur. Then you won’t get anything latest
come to Malaysia, because of NAP and NEP, price will be much higher.
2017 – kapcai price at RM 4000
2019 – kapcai price at RM 12,000
NAP and NEP have existed long ago so how come price increase? Reason is PH missmanagement.
Maybe we should create a Facebook group or Page specifically for Malaysian XSR enthusiast eg. XSR Lover Malaysia etc.
We need XSR 155, 700 and 900 in Malaysia too.
Thanks
This is basically a R15 with retro clothes. You can see the chassis, engine, fork, brakes are exactly the same.
well, the writer did mention about it.
Finally the 3 Japs giant launch small retro, this wud beat all those local retro w China engine, IF price competitevly, wud b a hit here.
China car and China moto usually got no quality. After the hype if over, sales will collapse. Like Demak. The same will happen to China made cars by Proton
Mr Mohan, that is usd fork not telescopic.
Both usd and conventional forks are called telescopic forks.Unless you referring to leading arm suspension which are obsolete.Most pre 80s cubs uses this.Look at old C70 or Yamaha super 88..
So sad, I just bought a CMC Daytona 250.
But, I guess when it does come to Malaysia, it would cost RM15k
Modenas NS200 would be a cheaper (RM9000) and better (200cc) buy…
Get the 250/300cc to fight against cb250r/cb300r. 155cc won’t sell well as most will opt. for NS200 as it is cheaper. *fingers crossed*
When will this little star land to INDIA…
Maybe we should create a Facebook group or Page specifically for Malaysian XSR enthusiast eg. XSR Lover Malaysia etc.
We need XSR 155, 700 and 900 in Malaysia too.
Thanks
AGREE, we need XSR155 in MALAYSIA TOO!
