Yamaha YZF-R15:Watch this drag race to find out which version is the fastest

Yamaha YZF-R15:Watch this drag race to find out which version is the fastest

The Indian market has seen great wonders with the additions of the recent Yamaha R15 and the all-new version of the bike is proven to be much more powerful to its ancestors when it comes to acceleration. In order to show you this truth, we have taken the liberty to show you this drag race between all the generations of the Yamaha R15 that shows which one is the quickest.

The YZF-R15 V3 has been proven to be the most powerful R15 ever in the drag race, as per the video. The version 1 and 2 of the R15 stay almost together with the new version of the bike leading by half a second.

In deciding whether the bike is quicker than the previous models, the acceleration of the bike depends on various factors like the weight of the rider, gear shift timing, condition of the clutch plate and also how grippy the tyres are. The comparison of the bikes in illustrated in the drag race and the results are much more accurate when the riders are changed again and again.

The V3 gets a whole new engine with the deltabox frame. It now features a 155-cc four-stroke unit. It is capable of delivering an output of 19.3 PS and 14.7 Nm. It also comes with a slipper clutch, which is rather new.
