2020 Yamaha YZF-R25 colour change, RM19,998

Donning new colours for this year is the 2020 Yamaha YZF-R25, much favoured sports bike amongst the young Malaysian rider and priced at a recommended retail of RM19,998, excluding road tax, insurance and registration. The new colour schemes for the YZF-R25 are Matte Silver and Matte Blue.

With new bodywork following the lines of the Yamaha YZF-R1 superbike, the R25 is said to be faster by 8 km/h in top speed. Mechanicals remains the same as the previous generation R25, with a two-cylinder 249 cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled mill mated to a six-speed gearbox producing 35.5 hp at 12,000 rpm and 22.6 Nm of torque at 10,000 rpm.

The 2020 R25 comes with upside-down forks with gold-anodised fork tubes and at the back is a preload-adjustable monoshock that delivers better performance. Seat height for the R25 is 758 mm, down 22 mm from the previous model while fuel is carried in a 14-litre tank that resembles that on the R1.

LED lighting is used both front and back for the R25 and inside the cockpit, the LCD instrument panel displays all the necessary information and includes a shift light. Braking is done with dual-piston callipers on a single disc on the front wheel and single-piston calliper on the rear wheel.

Weight for the R25 is 166 kg. The 2020 Yamaha YZF-R25 is available at authorised Hong Leong Yamaha Motor dealers from February 17.

      Yamaha: 35.5hp at 20k
      Perodua: 67hp at 28k

      Perodua more sporty, better value for money and better resale value.

    Where is ABS Yamaha Malaysia? This bike is capable to travel more than 140km/h and the acceleration is quite blistering.

    Yamaha Malaysia please consider bringing, ABS and other safety features and be put as a High Spec model, price is second thing. And please delivery the bike with consistent quality. Some current owner are complaining about the valve problem.

    In Indonesia they are given a choice, whether to get the cheaper version sans the ABS or the slightly expensive complete with the ABS. Nice quarter bike btw.

    • If you want ABS buy Modenas. NS200 and RS200 both have ABS starting at RM9800.

    Still no ABS? What is hly thinking? Are they only thinking about sales but ignore the safety of their customers? Even cheap ns200 also have ABS. I really can’t understand hly.
    Please value the life of your customers.
