Positioned in Yamaha's enduro - offroad motorcycle lineup, the 2020 Yamaha WR155R utilizes a 155 cc (9.5 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 16.5 HP (12 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 14.3 Nm (10.5 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 106.5 HP per liter and a 3,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (10,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
