Yamaha YZF-R25 Overview
The new YZF-R25 is the latest entrant in the quarter-litre segment from Yamaha. Globally unveiled at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, the R25 is arguably one of the most-awaited bikes of the recent time. The new Japanese hooligan will reach India around the end of this year and will be a direct competitor to the segments leaders like Honda CBR 250R, Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the upcoming RC Series of KTM. Being a Japanese and more specifically a Yamaha blood, the new R25 will most probably become a glorious offering in the Indian market.Yamaha YZF-R25 Expected Engine
The R25 will be powered by a twin-cylinder, 250cc, water-cooled engine that will produce between 30-35 BHP power. Unusually, the bike sits on a new tubular frame unlike the R15 that is underpinned with perimeter frame. Stopping power will come from disc brake at both ends while telescopic shock absorbers at the front and mono-shock setup at the rear will address the road undulations.
Yamaha YZF-R25 Expected Features
As said by the manufacturer, the R25 has taken its inspiration from the YZR-M1, Yamaha's Moto GP bike, persuading us to expect the terms like dynamic character, agile handling and fierce performance from this little monster. Yamaha is introducing the R25 on 20th May in Indonesia, although, Indian market is not expected to get it before the festive season of this year.
