The R-15's look is inspired from the Yamaha YZF-R6. Unlike the first edition, the v2 has a split-seat design, higher seat height, LED tail light, wide tyres, larger gear ratio(15/47), longer wheelbase, rear mudguard, and redesigned middle and tail section.
The engine performance was largely similar, still having a six-speed transmission and a linked type sport suspension added on the back. The 2014 Yamaha YZF-R15 released in Indonesia is largely the same as the 2011 version released in India, but with removed mudguard.
The engine is a 149.8 cc single cylinder [four-stroke engine] with four valves and a single overhead cam. The bore and stroke of the engine are 57.0 mm × 58.7 mm(2.24 in × 2.31 in). The radiator is placed in the front of the engine with a fan behind it. The coolant reserve is on the left side up and behind the radiator. The transmission is return type six-speed with a constant mesh wet multi plate clutch.
The bike has a 270 mm single disc with dual piston callipers in the front and a 220 mm single disc single piston calliper at the rear, both the brake systems being made by Nissin of Japan. The front suspension is twin telescopic fork and the rear is the advanced linked type motocross suspension. The bike has a dual headlight like other bikes of the R-series.
