a good breakdown of new features here: https://news.maxabout.com/bikes/yamaha/yamaha-r15-v3-vs-r15-v2-detailed-comparison/

looks good, such a neat swingarm for the cheap segment(from the V2) --- V3 however bumping up the capacity OVER 150cc to ~155cc which would preclude it from bucket racing F4 class?? would love to do a 4-8 hour endurance on something like this but i'm told i'm weird liking to ride so long on small bikes, being such a heavy and big bastard :weird:

Lol, that V3 headline had me thinking we were finally getting a Honda MVX replacement or something like it.

There I was thinking it would be a 1200cc V3. But it's only a friggen starter motor. I feel it's false advertising making those little bikes look like a sport bike....

...do they do it in blue?...
