BS6 Yamaha R15 V3 vs Honda CBR150R (Quick Comparison): Yamaha YZF-R15 Version 3.0 and thus the new Honda CBR150R are the closest possible rivals for 150cc premium performance segment. The R15 V3 made its official debut in India at the Auto Expo 2018 while the new CBR150R remains under the expected list of products for the Indian market. Honda features a great chance here as they might revive the CBR150R in India and convey some real competition to the similarly-priced bikes.
As the Yamaha R15 V3 is now available with a BS6-compliant engine and priced at INR 1.45 lakh (ex-showroom), one can expect Honda to place the new model of the CBR150R ABS slightly lower for better competition.
