About the Yamaha R15 V3

Overview

The Yamaha R15 V3 is a motorcycle from Yamaha. It has been discontinued. Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. With a 155 cc engine it sits in the 150–250 cc class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 155 cc liquid-cooled engine that makes 18.37 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 14.1 Nm of torque at 8,500 rpm. Peak torque comes high up, at 8,500 rpm, so it rewards revving. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 131 PS per tonne; by that measure, it is lively, with easy overtakes and relaxed highway speeds.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around a deltabox frame. Suspension is by telescopic fork at the front and monocross (link suspension) at the rear. Braking is by a disc at the front and a disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 815 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 142 kg ready to ride. Ground clearance is 170 mm — enough for most speed breakers. The wheelbase is 1,325 mm. It carries 11 L of fuel.

Maintaining the Yamaha R15 V3

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc and Disc brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as 12 V, 4.0 Ah(10 HR). Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Yamaha R15 V3 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
