Yamaha XSR155 English Review and Ride in Bali
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- This is Yamaha's entry into a relatively new category in Asia, small-capacity or entry-level modern-retro bikes. It competes with the Honda CB150R Exmotion and the Kawasaki W175. They are a slight step up from scooters in terms of price, and really popular as a base for modifications. For the price, this is a fantastic bike.

Update: I had this bike for a month (rented) and have since given it back. I really enjoyed it, it's a fantastic engine for the ~150cc class. The fit and finish is excellent for the price (OTR in Indonesia is around 38,000,000 IDR rupiah). Looks really cool. Can't really fault it except perhaps for the riding position (I'm 180cm) which was a little too bent forward for my liking, but perhaps could be fixed with some new handlebars and risers. I think if Yamaha brings the 300cc from the MT-03 (or 250cc / MT-25 in the Indonesia market) into the XSR family that would be a very, very compelling package.
True
Will it be suitable for weekly rides of about 200-300 km ?
Hey man, thanks a lot for doing this. Any ideas on how someone can get their hands on one in the US?
Can u please tell if this bike will launch in India? If yes,when?
Wow you're a bit taller than I am and still leaning forward. I definitely will have to lean even more....
English finally!, been watching reviews for this bike for moths having zero clue on what they were saying 😀 thanks for posting this👌
Lmao same here 😬 cheers!
Same here 😁
Oh yeah! Me too!
How's the suspension? Light set up? Instrument cluster etc?
Exact same issue I was facing, finally now know what always wanted to about this beauty.
Same here🤣🤣
Thankfully, an English review for XSR 155. And better yet, you spoke about your experience in riding the bike. Most reviewers focus much on the technical stuff and specs. Comparing how it feels to ride the XSR with other bikes of the same class is really very helpful. Love your honest review. New sub here.
God- what do you want son
Me-please bless video makers to made xsr videos in english🙏🙏 finally thank god,india love this bike
Ha Ha Ha.. True bro👍
Any indians?? 😁
Searching this classic buddy , like ah mad.....Since last few months.....🔥🔥....

God Will Bless you for making the most awaited bike review in Asia in English
Great and relaxed review! Yeah please do a Kawasaki w175 test drive review as well.. a lot of what's available are not in English and not really being compared to XSR 155 which would really be helpful to those deciding which one to get. Thanks!
Thanks for this review. Will definitely get this once it arrives here in the Philippines.
Did you get it?
Beautiful narration. And i love this bike. Any idea? Is it going to launch in india?
Thank you for your review, I have decided I want to get this. From Singapore! Appreciate it
Hi, I'm from SG too. Have you gotten it? If yes, how is it?
Thanks for the English review. Hopefully this bike reaches the shores of the Philippines 🇵🇭.
Finally a review in English!! Waiting for this bike to reach India!
W175 is no match compared to XSR 155. This has 19 bhp and 6 gears and cruises at 100kph with ease. W175 just had around 13bhp. If you want better ride quality then you can adjust or change the suspension of xsr to suit bad roads. There's no engine with vva like this one in the market
I have tried it in Singapore, my view - Sitting position is not comfortable..and seat also not have much cushion cause pain after few minutes..other than that looks promising
Change the seats
മലയാളീസ് ഇവിടെ ഉണ്ടോ🙂💗🇮🇳
Well done man, quite a detailed review of this bike!
Thinking of getting one to keep and ride when I am in Jakarta.
It would be useful if you posted in future your weight, height, inside leg measurement as well as arm length. Your post comments contradict what you said in the video about the finish and cutting costs; I just don't see it 🤔 It would also be useful to see how the bike pulls uphill and 2s up. Yes I'm in Bali and yes I'm buying 1, fancied the 250 but no decision yet on whether it's going to be released in Indonesia.
I stand by my comments in the video and the comments below :) The fit and finish of the bike in general is excellent. The switchgear and dash in particular feel much more premium than the price you pay for this bike. But having said that, it's a bit plastic-fantastic. The plastic tank, the plastic bash guard - good quality finish on both but they are cost saving measures for sure. These are nitpicks though. All in all, it's probably the best bike available at this price point. FWIW I ended up buying its sibling, the WR155R (which I have now fully customized, will have to do a video on it some day). Same engine, but in a trail bike form factor. Interestingly, the fit and finish on the WR is noticeably poorer quality. But I wanted the trail bike form factor as it's more comfortable for me.
This does in fact have a hook that you can use to secure your helmet under the seat tho that requires you to remove the seat then put it back
Hi. Thanks for the English review. I hope that you do manage to review the W175 as that is also interesting to see the comparison. Have you already ridden the W175 as you mentioned just after 23 minutes that it has a more powerful engine. That interested me, so I googled the power and a couple of results put the W175 around 13HP? Strange! Thanks :)
I've ridden a W175 but it was customized so I'm going to find a stock one to do a back-to-back comparison with. It has higher displacement but maybe since it's a more simple engine (air cooled, carb) it puts out less HP?
Jon Yongfook good points ,sir. Engines with old tech , especially carburettor equipped engines, could give lower hp even having large displacements. On the other hand you can have so much hp with a slightly lower displacement with higher techs equipped,such as fuel injectors instead of carb, liquid cooling instead of oldskool air cooling. Etc.
Finally Xsr in English review.. Thanks lot 👍
I just got this bike, and I agree, first thing to go out of the window is the handle bar
My height is somewhere arround 5.4-5.5ft. Will it be comfortable to touch my both feets on ground while sitting on this bike ?
Thanks
yes... offcoarse
I am 5'11" and this motorcycle looks tiny.
i’m 6’3” hmmmm
Keep putting more videos online they are so interesting thank for sharing John!
How it feels suspension and breaks of the bike.The radius is it picks less when u have an u turn?
Haaa. .finally an English review...
Fed up of all those Thailand shit.
Thank you brother.
This is going to get huge success in India if priced perfectly..
Yes...
Exactly 👍🏻
Very interested In this bike because of its looks, yamaha, and mainly the position. So does your wrist hurt after a one hour ride or so? If it does can u suggest a upright position bike in the similar price point which available in india? Thanks in advance
I wish sometimes, I moved to Bali from India. Make a video on Life in Bali for a person who moves from another asian country
I am also pleased to see a review in English and any other reviews or tips on modifying this bike should post their UA-cam links? I have just purchased a Yoshimura GP Magnum exhaust for the Yamaha XSR125 we cant get the 155 but need to know when you change the exhaust to the Yoshimura what do you do with the Oxygen sensor? Did that XSR155 have an oxygen sensor bolted into the exhaust? can anyone help with a solution?
Great review! Would be nice to see more dash next time when you are riding.
Are you using the quick shifter?
Btw the kawasaki w175 is 5-speed and carbureted. The xsr155 is fuel injected.
Plz explain india lonching date plz plz plz
How would you compare this bike to a bigger scooter on the canggu shortcut? Is it worse?
Is it comfortable on bad roads,,,how's the suspension
Hey Jon, if you had to choose between the Yamaha XSR 155 or the Honda CRF 150L, which one would it be? You don't know how happy I am to watch this video of someone comparing the two bikes that I'm debating with myself to buy for the past several months. I live in the Philippines which probably has the same road conditions in Indonesia. I'm choosing either of the two as my first bike by the way. In your opinion, which one is better? Cheers mate!
I think I would go for the XSR in that case, it’s the more fun bike to ride. More power than the CRF150. The XSR is also quite a big step up in terms of quality of the finish.
Neither, go for a Skygo Stallion 150 ...!!! 😂 🎉
*Crap Game*
Although the Kawasaki W175 has a 20cc advantage over the Yamaha. The XSR155 has a nearly 6hp power advantage, although it is also 6kg heavier.
Where can I get this in the USA ? OR THE 125 ?
Too bad handle bars low, my injured arm would get sore. Check out gpx legend 200cc
So you rented for a month, where from, how much; thinking I might hire myself before buying 🤔
they are available all over the place really, but the place I rented from is called Alpha Customs (despite the name, the bike was stock)
OK I bought one; an excellent machine needing as you say adjustment of the riding position. FYI there are 2 helmet locks under the seat and you can also adjust the backlight brightness of the multi function clock👍. I need to mention also that it is not a "bash plate" on the front of the engine but a "couling" the purpose of which is to protect the engine from water and dirt being thrown up from the front wheel (because of the short front fender). You also get a free XSR helmet and a cold/hot drinks flask; not sure for how long though? Hope this will also help others considering buying 👍.
@@BobfmBali congrats on the purchase and enjoy the bike!
Hi,
How much mileage it is giving?
hi, i'm short (150cm) with an inseam of around 68-70cm. any idea what can be done to this bike to accommodate vertically challenged riders like myself? was thinking of shaving the seat and maybe adjusting the suspension. not sure if there are lowering links and whether that's advisable.
There is not a lot of scope for reducing the seat height however I have seen on UA-cam videos to lower the bike ride height which might be what you are looking for 🤔
Waiting to be launch in India, from almost last 300 years...........
Yamaha. ......
That's very good looking bike I wish we had it in UK
Is this bike suitable for short riders
Been so long since am waiting this bike to launch in India..should i wait more or go for mt15?
Plz suggest guys
"Yamaha XSR155 is expected to launch in India in December 2020 in the expected price range of ₹ 1,36,000 to ₹ 1,40,000" - bikewale.com
Mt15 is good
Polarizing fresh alternative - svartpilen 250 or rumored 200
Can you please tell about the pillion seat comfort of this bike.
Nice review. good job.
I hope they make something like this adventure bike with a straight seat like xsr.
Cant wait for your review of the honda cb150r
How tall is the rider and can you flat foot it?
In Indonesia, there are so many bike modificator bro.
I hope that you will create vlog again (xsr155 upgrade)
Anyway, thank you so much for your information
Good luck bro 👍
Do we need to lean forward to reach the handle bar? I don't like to lean while driving a bike. Can I take it for long rides of around 200km+?
I'm around 6ft and for me, yes there is a slight lean forwards. I don't think I could do long distance on this bike, the riding position is not conducive to that IMO. It's great for short bursts around town though.
@@yongfook ok bro...
is this bike for 6 ft height people ??
How is it seat comfortable. ????
wow watched the rest of the video! I have never seen so many scooters in a video, ever! also other things I noticed! dogs with road sense? as bikes shot past them! people running on the road! as the mayhem around them enfolds!with cars and bikes streaming past! and calling the bike a commuter is an insult, I think!to what a great machine it is! just my thoughts! anyway enjoyed your review! but I could never live in a place with 50 thousand scooter riders all deciding to go out for the day! all at the same time!
Can we ride for long journey with this bike?
It has engine cooling oil, yes you can ride long rides
It's adorable.
Nice review, Bro. Thanks.
Silencer looks really not good. Please make the silencer slimmer before releasing in Karnataka, India
Just cant wait to see this bike in india
how tall are you ?
Great review! Can you compare to the Honda cb150r?
How much mileage you've been getting??
50ish
Sitting should be same as natural if not it may be issue in india. Also hope no vibrations and brakes are on spot
❤️❤️❤️
Is it really heavy like the royal Enfield or so bcs I'm just 55kg somewhere, so don't know will I b able to handle it well or not
which RE? himalayan? if i'm reckoned right this bike will be placed just alot lighter or maybe almost similar to the himalayan
Berat Isi(weight total) 134 kg -xsr155, Kerb weight 199 kgs (with 90% fuel & oil)- Royald Enfield Himalayan
My weight is currently 47. I drive Apache 160.
The best❤ bike
How about if battery empty?
does this have a self start/ electric start button?
SKILL TECHNO Kamala Subramaniam Yes, it has.
Good review sir! I’m torn between this one and the kawasaki w175 and honda cb150r
If you're also looking for performance, get this one. If you're only after the retro looks, you can go with the w175. Both bikes have a bit of aggressive riding position and they're both built with, mostly, premium parts.
Hi my height is 160cm . Is it suitable for me . Please reply .
Yes
Nice english review. Thanks!
does it have abs?
Will this bike look okay for a 6 foot tall guy?
I'm just around 6ft. The bike looks a little small, but it's not uncomfortable. I prefer a little more legroom though!
sir, there's no Kickstart on it?
Thanks
No
That engine is FI or Carb varient??
FI. The fueling is smooth, zero issues to speak of 👍🏻
Lovely bike dude
What is the mileage??
The company claim milege about 45 in city and 53 on high way
This is a great bike. However im a Honda fan. I wish Honda makes a CB150R to counter part this like they have made ADV150.
Great review 👍
What is the seat height of this bike
81 cm
இந்தியாவில் இதன் வருகைக்கு காத்திருக்கிறோம்.
I am around 5'3 in height, Can I still ride it?
Check the seat height of the bikes that you have driven. And then compare it with the seat height of xsr 155....
Luckily im 5'6" 😉
The moment his voice juggles when he hit the black road 😅
i dont know why yamaha is not launching this beautiful machine in india
Finally...English
there is a helmet catch under the seat
Mallus??
Yeahh
I think you need to do your currency conversion a little better.. 3500 bucks is like 50 jt
👍👍
Can talk about meter
Very high engine vibration, at 6000RPM key/handle lock start vibrating with annoying metal buzzing sound. Top speed
135km/h, and both your hands will feel numbness if you ride without hand gloves, and the design of the temperature sensor is very stupid..
My bro: what his channel?
Me : Jon...oh shit! Wtf
First time to watch an english review on this bike. How's the ride man? Was it comfortable? How bout if you have a pillion? Ride safe dude.
I’ve had it for a month and have taken a pillion about 50% of the time I’m on it. No complaints, the front and rear disc brakes do their job nicely! I don’t think the riding position is for me though. I’ve noticed some cramping in my wrists after longer rides which I normally don’t have with other bikes.
Please launch in India
YAMAHA XSR 155CC..🏍.In this bike there r 4 weak points that is
1. Side stand indicator with Engine Cutoff,
2. Hazard Lights.,
3. Side LED indicator..
4. Glide Through Technology (GTT)..
r not given then this 4 things should be added otherwise bike is Superb. I like this bike very much & I want to buy this bike.👌🔥
Really I Love ♥️ dis Bike & 🏍🏍 Features is Awesome...
In this segment... great efforts YAMAHA..!
When going to Launch in 🇮🇳India / Now Lots of Confusion......⭐⭐💥💥♥️♥️
من عاشق این موتورم کاش میتونستم داشتمش
This bike suitable for long drive
In terms of range, this thing can go pretty far. Averaging around 40 km/l with a 10 liter fuel tank, it has the range from around 400 km.
