Built around Yamaha's sport motorcycle platform, the 2013 Yamaha YZF-R15 V2.0 utilizes a 150 cc (9.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 57.0 x 58.7 mm (2.2 x 2.3 inches) with a 10.4:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the YZF-R15 V2.0 measures 136 kg (300 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,345 mm (53 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
