2020 Yamaha MT-15, Ray-ZR 125 & Street Rally BS6 Versions Launched; Prices Start At Rs. 66,730

After unveiling its BS6 line-up in December last year, Yamaha Motor India has finally launched the BS6 compliant versions of the MT-15, Fascino 125 and the Ray-ZR. The 2020 Yamaha MT-15 BS6 is priced from Rs. 1.39 lakh for the black and blue shades, and Rs. 1.4 lakh for the new orange and white colour scheme. The Yamaha Ray-ZR 125 is an all-new offering replacing the 110 cc version and is priced at Rs. 66,730 for the drum brake version and Rs. 69,730 for the disc brake model. The Ray-ZR Street Rally 125 FI  is priced at Rs. 70,730 (all prices ex-showroom, Delhi).

The 2020 Yamaha MT-16 BS6 is about Rs. 4000 more expensive than the BS4 model. For the premium, the street-fighter gets the new Ice Fluo Vermillion colour scheme white base paint and new graphics on top, and orange finished alloy wheels. The bike also gets a side-stand engine cut off switch, a radial tyre and a revised LED taillight. It continues to use a single-channel ABS unit, however. Power comes from the same 155 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine but the output is lower at 18.3 bhp and 14.1 Nm of peak torque, down from 19 bhp and 14.7 Nm of peak torque. The engine continues to be paired with a 6-speed gearbox. At the unveiling, Yamaha had said that the company plans to sell about 40,000 units of the MT-15 this year. The company sold about 25,000 units in 2019.

The Yamaha Ray-ZR 125 BS6 replaces the 110 cc version in the company's line-up. The sporty looking scooter gets a new frame, 12-inch alloy wheels, unified braking system, a side-stand cut-off switch, multi-function key, foldable hook, USB charging and more. The scooter is powered by the new 125 cc Blue Core single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that produces 8 bhp and 9.7 Nm of peak torque.

Yamaha says the new motor is about about 30 per cent more powerful than the 113 cc models, while fuel efficiency stands at 58 kmpl (claimed), which is 16 per cent more fuel-efficient. The scooter also gets a start-stop system and a traffic mode. The Ray-ZR 125 FI weighs just 99 kg, making it the lightest scooter in its class, and also comes with the new start motor generator that allows a silent start. The Ray-ZR Street Rally 125 is an extension of the new scooter and comes with additional bits including hand guards, knobby tyres,

A 1200 cc modern classic with similar design lines as Triumph's iconic Bonneville series, has reportedly been cleared for production. The bike was showcased as a concept at last year's EICMA motorcycle show, and from the looks of it, this is a model developed in China with the Triumph Bonneville T120 in its sights. The Brixton brand though is part of Austria's KSR Group, which imports bikes from several Chinese manufacturers, including CF Moto.

While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
