      2022 Yamaha MT15 Colour Options Leak – Bookings Open

      by

      Yamaha India is getting ready to launch updated MT15 this month – Ahead of launch, new details have leaked2022 Yamaha MT15 likely to get same updates as R15 V4.Yamaha MT15 hyper-naked motorcycle is based on its fully-faired sibling R15, which received a generation upgrade around six months ago. Ever since that, fans have been wanting similar upgrades on the MT15.Yamaha India has temporarily discontinued Yamaha MT15 from sale. Production has stopped since earlier this year. This is because they will be launching an updated MT15 this month. Yes, the new Yamaha MT-15 Version 2.0 will launch in the coming days, while deliveries will start from the 2nd week of April 2022.2022 Yamaha MT15 Colour Options – Bookings openBookings of the new Yamaha MT15 2.0 have already opened at select dealers. Nikam Yamaha has already started accepting bookings of the new MT15 motorcycle. Booking amount is about Rs 2,000 to Rs 10,000 depending on the dealer. 4 new colour options are on offer. These are – Grey, White, Glossy Black and Racing Blue.New 2022 MT15 is likely to receive the same set of updates as its baby superbike sibling. Although both bikes share the same underpinnings, they flaunt very different top hats with varying riding ergonomics. Most updates seen on the new 2022 MT-15 are expected to be changes mostly underneath its skin.Yamaha MT15 Bookings OpenUpdated Hardware SpecsThe new MT15 is expected to be packed with better equipped cycle parts over its predecessor. For instance, Yamaha will be offering upside-down front forks instead of conventional telescopic forks in the latest iteration of the naked roadster. On the rear side, the upcoming MT-15 will retain the preload-adjustable rear mono-shock.Braking configurations are expected to remain identical in the new MT15 with a similar 282mm disc at front and 220mm disc at rear. However, this time they will be aided by a dual-channel ABS instead of a single-channel ABS offered in the outgoing unit. The naked street racer will continue to roll on 17-inch wheels at both ends, shod with 100/80 front and 140/70 rear tubeless tyres.Powertrain & Features on offerSpeaking of powertrain, new MT-15 will be powered by the same 155cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine with VVA technology that features in R15 V4. In its latest avatar of the baby sports bike, this motor kicks out 18.1 bhp at 10,000rpm and 14.2 Nm of peak torque at 7,500rpm. We expect similar output figures in its hyper-naked sibling as well. This unit will be paired with a 6-speed gearbox.2022 Yamaha MT-15 is likely to see some new features added to its equipment. The biggest update of them all will be a revised digital instrument cluster enabled with Bluetooth connectivity. Yamaha’s Y-connect App has been made available across several models in the recent past. It will also benefit from a traction control system as standard while higher variants may benefit from a quick-shifter too.Styling UpdatesDesign-wise, Yamaha won’t be making any radical changes to the upcoming MT-15. It is likely to follow a similar design with an aggressive front fascia thanks to a single-pod projector LED headlamp with eyebrows-shaped LED DRLs. Other styling highlights including muscular bodywork, a raised tail section and a side-slung upswept exhaust are expected to be carried forward from its predecessor.However, front forks on the new iteration of MT-15 are expected to be anodized in golden colour which should add to the bike’s overall appeal. The upcoming new-gen MT-15 is expected to hit showrooms in India by the end of April or early May 2022 with prices at a slight premium over the outgoing model. More

      Honda Scoopy 110cc Scooter Launch Planned – Patent Filed

      by

      Honda Scoopy has been in pipeline for the Indian market for a long time, it was even spied testing in the country a few years agoHonda Scoopy Scooter 110ccIn recent times, Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India has filed quite a few patents, indicating that the Japanese brand is planning to launch multiple new models in the country. Though the latest one to come to light is not very recent, it is an addition to the growing list of upcoming two-wheelers from Honda.The company has filed patents for a new scooter called Scoopy in India which were actually filed back in March last year. While filing a mere patent doesn’t guarantee a market launch, Scoopy does make a lot of sense for the Indian market. The scooter was spotted testing in India back in 2017, however, it did not get launched after all.Honda Scoopy Patented in India- DesignsHonda Scoopy is a true modern classic scooter with a retro styling that appeals to both young as well as mature riders. It surely stands apart as far as design is concerned when compared to its segment rivals like Hero Pleasure Plus, Maestro Edge and TVS Jupiter as well as its Indian peers Honda Dio and Activa 6G.It gets an oval-shaped headlamp cluster mounted on the front apron flanked by bean-shaped turn indicators thus lending the scooter a unique appearance. It gets sweeping lines on smooth body panels usually seen on European scooters. It gets a single-piece saddle that looks large and cushiony and should be comfortable in long-distance commutes as well.Honda Scoopy Scooter Patent Filed In IndiaFeatures & Hardware SpecsSpeaking of convenience, Scoopy gets a large 15.4-litre under-seat storage in addition to a USB charging port inside the front glove box. It also gets a wide floorboard on which carrying luggage should be relatively easier. Other key features on offer include a semi-digital instrument cluster, keyless ignition, a projector LED headlight, a multi-function hook at the front and a side stand indicator.In terms of safety & security, the new Scoopy has been equipped with smart keys that offer an answer-back feature and anti-theft alarm. Coming to its hardware setup, it is underpinned by an eSAF frame which is suspended on telescopic forks up front and a mono-shock at rear. It rolls on 12-inch alloy wheels at both ends while anchorage is taken care of by a disc brake in front and a drum at rear which are aided by CBS.Powertrain DetailsPowering Scoopy is the same 109.51cc single-cylinder, air-cooled, SOHC engine that propels Activa and Dio in India. While this motor churns out 7.76 PS of power and 9 Nm of peak torque in the India-spec models, it kicks out 9 PS and 9.3 Nm in the Indonesia-spec Scoopy. It comes with eSP (enhanced Smart Power) which not only boosts performance but also improves fuel efficiency.Honda Scoopy 110cc scooterThe scooter also gets an ACG starter, which ensures smooth engine starts without the usual sputtering sound. Whether or not this scooter will see daylight in the Indian market only time and Honda can tell us. If it is to be launched in India, it has to be priced very competitively against other 110cc scooters. More

      2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor Modified Into Gothic Scrambler

      by

      Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 has been modified into a beautiful looking scrambler by WSW Custom Bike based out of Thailand2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor ModifiedRoyal Enfield motorcycles are known to be a chameleon in the aftermarket industry – thanks to the ease at which it can be modified into a new avatar. Over the years, customisers have presented many different avatars of bikes from the stable of the Chennai-based manufacturer not just in India but overseas as well. The latest example also comes from a foreign land which involves Interceptor 650.Thailand-based WSW Custom Bike is well known for its aftermarket customisation projects involving Royal Enfield 650 Twins– Interceptor and Continental GT. In this case, the former has been modified into a retro scrambler which has been wrapped in an all-black paint scheme.2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor ModifiedFor starters, folks at WSW have used the stock fuel tank but gave it an aftermarket black shade with a Matte finish. It also features the ‘Royal Enfield’ branding in red colour along with a red stripe contouring both sides of the tank.Upfront, it gets a round, full LED multi-beam aftermarket round headlight nestled within a chrome bezel with an integrated circular LED DRL. Another major change is a new custom seat with a new padding underneath and a ribbed pattern.2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor ModifiedBoth front and rear fenders have been chopped short as in the case with a contemporary scrambler. As a result, the registration plate is mounted behind the Nitrox chamber of the left shock absorber. Also, the rear fender holds an aftermarket LED taillight.2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor ModifiedThe workshop has also employed an aftermarket exhaust setup with new bend pipes and mufflers on each side. Size of wire-spoked wheels appears to remain constant, however, they are now wrapped up by knobbier dual-purpose tyres from Pirelli. This would allow the bike to undergo some amount of trail bashing. It also gets a new pair of inverted rearview mirrors which are perfect for touring purposes.RE Interceptor 650- Specs & PriceNo changes have been mentioned in the mechanical department barring the wheels and tyres. The bike gets its power from a 648cc parallel-twin, air/oil-cooled motor that kicks out 47 bhp and 52 Nm of peak torque. This unit is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox via a slipper clutch.2022 Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor ModifiedNot many changes have been made to the bike’s hardware configurations as such. Suspension duties continue to be handled by telescopic forks up front and twin gas-charged Nitrox mono-shocks at rear. Braking is taken care of by single disc brakes with 320mm rotor at front and 240mm rotor at rear. They are aided by a dual-channel ABS as standard.Instrumentation on the bike has also remained the same as the stock motorcycle with a twin-pod cluster housing, an analogue speedo and a tachometer. It gets a simple halogen setup for illumination. Interceptor 650 is currently priced between Rs 2.85 lakh to Rs 3.09 lakh (ex-showroom).Source More

      2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc Scooter Debuts With New Features

      by

      Apart from petrol-powered scooters, Yamaha also unveiled its first two electric scooters which will go on sale in select international markets2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc Scooter. Images – Bob SantraYamaha continues to strengthen its scooter lineup across major international markets. The Japanese brand recently took the covers off from Force X which is its new sporty-looking scooter for the Chinese market. It has been primarily targeted at developed markets.The new 125cc scooter has been conceptualized as an urban commuter that can occasionally carry out mild trail bashing. It shares its internals with Fascino and RayZR from Yamaha’s India lineup. In fact, Force X draws a hint of styling inspiration from the latter as well.2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc ScooterBy looks of it, Force X definitely appears as a stylish scooter with many details pointing toward its adventure nature. For instance, it gets a sharp front fascia featuring a headlight mounted on front apron and a small beak-like section underneath it.The broad panels incorporate many cuts and creases which give it a modern appeal. A few styling inspirations resemble a Maxi-style scooter, even though Force X is not one. Dual-tone theme thanks to a blacked-out floorboard, side body panels and front and rear fenders provide a necessary dose of sportiness to the scooter.2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc ScooterLED turn indicators have been mounted on the handlebar. Other striking highlights include a flat footboard, a stepped-up single-piece saddle, a side-sling exhaust, a single-piece pillion grab rail and arrowhead-shaped rear view mirrors.2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc ScooterFeatures & SpecsIn terms of features, it gets basic equipment such as a halogen headlamp, a digital instrument console and blacked-out 10-inch alloy wheels. Some variants will receive alloy wheels dipped in red paint which further create a colourful contrast for the scooter. Weighing just 92 kilos, it is extremely nimble and a kilo lighter than TVS Scooty Pep+.Powering Force X is a 125cc air-cooled Blue Core hybrid engine that sends power to the rear wheels via a CVT gearbox. This unit kicks out 8.19 bhp at 6,500rpm and a peak torque of 9.7Nm at 5,000rpm. This powertrain returns a claimed fuel efficiency of 2.2 litres per 100km which translates to 45 kmpl.2022 Yamaha Force X 125cc ScooterAs far as dynamics are concerned, suspension duties are handled by conventional telescopic forks up front and a mono-shock at rear. Braking department consists of a disc brake in front and a drum at rear but there is no ABS on offer even as an option.Price & Expected India LaunchForce X has been priced at CNY 8,980 that roughly translates to INR 1.07 lakh. It will compete against other sporty-looking scooters like Honda ADV 150. Given the price of Force X, it is unlikely to reach Indian shores. However, Yamaha is planning on introducing a new 125cc scooter in India soon that is expected to be showcased to dealerships in the coming few weeks. More
