Indonesia gets special edition Yamaha YZF-R15 V3.0

Yamaha has introduced a special edition of the YZF-R15 V3.0 in the Indonesia market. This version is all about cosmetic enhancements. 

This midnight edition gets a black paint scheme with gold-painted wheels. The body work also gets gold sharp decals that enhances the overall look of this 150cc fully-faired motorcycle. Rest of the bike is exactly like the standard model. 

The Japanese manufacturer has been selling this bike in Indonesia for several months now. The introduction of a special edition is definitely going to help the company garner more sales. Inspired from the YZF-R6, the third iteration of the R15 is a major improvement over its predecessors. The 150cc liquid-cooled motor has been revised to churn out more power at 19bhp. It also gets upside-down front forks, aluminum swingarm and larger front brake discs. Slipper clutch is standard in this motorcycle. 

Yamaha India has been postponing the launch of the latest R15 as the V2.0 still sells in considerable numbers. The company plans to launch the V3.0 when the demand for the second iteration goes down.
