The contestants got on the track on Yamaha’s Super Sports YZF-R15 and experienced the breath taking acceleration of the bike on a race circuit. Loaded with true Yamaha racing DNA, YZF-R15 provided complete racing experience to the biking enthusiasts and hands on feel of its power, stability, cornering and braking. Yamaha made their experience more exciting by mounting Daytona Racing Kits in the bikes. These kits are developed using valuable experience gained from MotoGP & World Superbike racing and are designed exclusively for racing purpose in a closed circuit.
The winners of the R15 One make Race championship 2013 will be getting a chance to participate in the Yamaha ASEAN Cup 2013 to be held later this year.
The technology in YZF-R15 has percolated from R1 (Deltaboxframe/Fuel Injection/6 speed gearbox/styling/Liquid Cooled 4V engine). Just like R1, it is light weight, has power on demand, besides having centralized mass, stopping power, aerodynamics, ergonomics and stability/rigidity, among others. It also has the controllability and maneuverability to maximize riding/cornering/braking performance.
Yamaha’s R15 One Make Race Championship is one of the company’s biggest initiatives to take racing culture to newer heights in India and this event has proved to be very successful in its aim to inculcate the racing spirit as well as to promote safe biking culture in the country.
