The particular aspect of going fast, in a polish way is Performance. But the actual meaning of Performance means to deliver all the functions or tasks it is assigned.

Yeah it is much needed comparison. But for someone who looks for a sports bike in that price segment, Gixxer SF 250 is a nice option. Yeah, it' doesn't have USD forks or fancy meter console. But just based on how both the bikes are trying to be more user friendly and something having good performance with that price, SF 250 is a nice option to consider. Everyone is not going to track right. Common people may use these machines for daily use too as you mentioned in the video. When it comes to performance, I felt Gixxer Sf has better performance than both of these too( just my personal experience).
Majority folks are superficial. Lucrative features always attracts them. What's really best for them always left unaware. If sf250 comes into discussion, comparison become irrelevant and sf will leave both of them in dust.
Being a KTM RC owner for past 1 year I clearly agree with you. I bought RC for its damm looks and performance. Being in a metropolitan city like hyderabad I agree that these upright position bikes are very difficult to handle in city. In my friend circle we have various bikes such as Gixxer sf250 ,R15 v3, Mt15, Ns200 , R15M ,Duke 200 ,390 ,RC ,RS etc.... I feel that its better to go with street , naked bikes rather than a full fairing Bike ( In city Rides) But Gixxer sf 250 is something else. Excellent riding comfort .It has excellent power, the cost of ownership and maintenance is low , good milage compared to RC 200, The cost of the bike is low. LOOKS ARE SUBJECTIVE.... In the second hand market u can find these bike as low as 1 lakh in great condition. Its just my opinion bro
Gixxer 250 feels smaller than the RC 200 never ridden the Yamaha though.. And power is comparable to it also mileage is a little lower on the gixxer, in my opinion the Gixxer is the best looking bike in this segment
Its hard to choose between the RC200 and the R15 V4. They are both great bikes in thier respective form. The r15 is a good lightweight, easy to Ride bike for a beginner who is looking something fun to Ride. The engine is refined and gives better efficiency compared to RC200 also got good features like slipper clutch, Bluetooth connectivity,ect. But the RC200 is also better bike. It gets the job done by giving more. it gets more power, its faster, its comfortable thanks to its soft suspension and it looks modern to . Sure it Misses some features like slipper clutch ect. But still the new RC200 feels like bigger bike. Its realy confusing to choose 😅. Although my choice is the R15. But If u love sports bikes like theses then either of them will not be disappointing choice.
Schumi- Oil grade matters, everything else is just a marketing gimmick... Also Schumi- Shell Advance, maximum power protection and blue one is long ride protection..!!! 😅 Sponsors ka chakkar babu bhaiyya, sponsors ka chakkar...!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 P.s. its just a joke..!! 😅
You guys forgot the most important factor of picking one over the other in this day and age, the fuel efficiency.The R15 can give FE figures close to 60kmpl when one has a lighter wallet at the end of a month; also, still returning 35kmpl even if you rip the shit out of it. Even though these are sports bikes its not top shelf stuff like R1 or RC8 wherein the prospective buyer only thinks about the fun quotient when choosing his/her ride. The RC can at max return 38 kmpl when driven sedately and KTMs generally have twice the maintenance cost/parts failure rate when compared to a motorcycle from the Yamaha stable. Meanwhile the underrated machine in this segment is the SF250 which is always under the radar because the media houses never brings it up in their comparos or reviews.
Remember, if you are getting 60kmpl on R15, trust me you are not doing justice with the engine. Engine with 155 cubic capacities is meant to be revved. I own it one and I'm getting it around 35 kmpl. No complaints! However, I agree with you that Gixxer SF250 is underrated. Top notch acceleration in 250 cubic capacities domain in Indian market.
@@Unkahin_Bakchodiyaan Absolutely, but there will some time when one would like to have a bit more efficiency(runs out of pocket money or cash strapped during month ends etc) and the R15 could do that is the point.
Talking about KTM. I have got 40+ kmpl on my Duke 200. Same engine. Also spares cost isnt that expensive. All spares are cheap. And the acceleration is phenomenal. No one can touch you in the city with this bike
@@jonjones18 maybe you are a dopehead blinded from the current civilization! One can extract 60kmpl from R15 when driven sedately. I own one so I know.
Proud owner of a bs4 R15 v3. It's been three years with my beauty and not once did she gave me any major problems. To all of your surprise I mostly tour on it(clogged 18k+). My bike has ran more on highways than in the city. I hardly commute with it. For obvious reasons stated in the video. The only downside that I feel with this bike is nothing in the name of low end. And while the pillion is surprisingly comfortable but the rider isn't. It's a phenomenal machine and the way it looks oh lala, they way it rides and handles. I don't like riding any other bike now just in terms of refinement. Once you go Yamaha. All other brands let you down. Except Honda 😅
The RC is clearly the better motorcycle here but for the amount of kit you get on the Yamaha, its a sweet deal. Besides, R15 has better colour options, making your toy more customizable.
Fun comparo! Missed one important point though, at that Shell station only one hour ago I put petrol @rs121/L, and my V3 is giving upwards of 50kmpl so the petrol price hurts a little less you know...
Wow, what a smooth product placement. It totally gels with the video product. Hatts off to the marketing and writing team without saying how Shumi and Varun pull it off with ease 👍
I had the first year model of rc200 and toured the hell out of it, covering over 70k km in 5 years. Got a duke 390 after that and now I'm thinking to get the new rc200 as a second bike. It is just sooo goood!
I’m riding a R15 v2 since 2014 named it Popla. Now thought of buying another bike was thinking of duke 250 then rode R15 v4 and d250. Man the feel of yamaha is just brilliant. I wish R3 was still here

First comment but honestly Think about it as having something that’s very race track commited and the other one is basically improved in all terms. Power wise KTM will always make it to the end but comfort, better features which a college student and an amateur rider can buy that’s Yamaha.

Engine is so smooth at any gear and any rev band which makes it less vibrating and auto shifter adds the cherry on the cake
R15 just need a bit more bottom-end grunt for city riding as it is pretty much gutless below 4K RPM rest everything is totally bonkers. Proud V3 owner here ✌️
Why don't you give your opinion driving the vehicle in city areas like the"Peth Areas"? Or is it that your city limits are confined to KP, Kalyani Nagar, etc?
The video feels less about the machines and more about product placement. Reasons are understandable, but a little disappointing...maybe coz PD is held to a much higher standard content-wise... :/

....R15 could have been the best ever beginners sport bike if it had been made with a 200 cc engine with atleast 23 to 24 bhp and around 20 nm of torque !!., the bike is under powered in low and mid range and too expensive for the performance being given, the bike surely has all the components of a true super sport like a perimeter frame, usd forks, uni track rear mono shock, alluminium swing arm, rear sets and clipons and so on but the bike is under power with no juice in the low revs !!!!😥😥😥😥

Proud to be a owner of yamaha R15 version 3 bs4 since 33 months completed 34000 kms 90 percent of my ride is long ride only touring getting a great mileage of 50+ 😎. Draw back is life of chain sprocket is 15-17000 KMS 😭 rest no problem. Refinement levels of yamaha is in par with KTM Bajaj and tvs 👍
@@ganeshbharadwajshooter1913 Your reply makes no sense, Should appreciate your audacity to judge somebody's English with your English understanding skill poorer than your V3's build quality.
🥲🥲 i love oranges but I have blue no worries both are best in class, but i feel blue is 155cc super bike how engine changes its character how no limiters are present bikes goes 130+ easily . I love refinement of blue as compared to organe but Orange is still a love .
Bro I am considering meteor 350, but I also have inclination towards Husqvarna, what do you think is a better buy? Because they both are now under 2.5L bracket. Also r15 can also be considered as that will help me save some bucks but surely it must not be comfortable at all.
Meteor's seat heat is on lower side many can find it easy to get it and out and Husqvarna seat height is taller , Depends on your height and reach of the foot. Position of seating on both the bikes also differs alot , Take a test drive of both and choose which suits you
I drove a test ride bike R15 v4 with pillion, and it feels like a riding moped, yes seriously saying its overpriced bike and not worthy, if you have already 150 cc bike don't go for R15 v4
I'm riding my brother's R15s(old gen) and it's low end torque is terrible too. It really annoys me sometimes actually.. It's just like the elders say: There is no replacement for displacement
am also riding the same , unable to let it go trouble free engine 55+ km for a liter , only thing is nothing in low end you need to constantly rev it to get the most out of it
@@arjunsukumaran2540 yeah.. at first I didn't feel any lag. Once I got used to it's power, I have the need to rev it all the time to get any amount of usable power. I don't need a ton of torque on the bottom end, but some usable torque would be good..
@@twowheeledparadox yeah.. Actually I was thinking of getting a D390 retuning it for a better torque response.. I like to have a powerful top end bikes, but not with 0 low end punch. Having a power band spread throughout the rev range(like Gixxer 250s) would also be boring imo, as it would require very less proper inputs from our side.. Usable torque + top end power would be the best combo atleast for me, as it's normally rideable and also can go faster only when we want it to under our proper input..
I dont like KTMs. Period. More than anything their design dont appeal to me. They don't look special. R15 on the other hand, I got one last month 18th August, the M Edition and boy oh boy I love riding it so much I clocked 1707 km till date. Absolutely gorgeous.

Also in the current scenario the R15 can extract more of mileage which the KTM can never do.
Engine is so smooth at any gear and any rev band which makes it less vibrating and auto shifter adds the cherry on the cake
My Favourite is the BS3 Duke 390 which I Still own ,No Comparison Fullstop
I have a BS4 390 Duke and regret not buying the BS3 one near the start of the ban in 2017. The throttle response is very mellow in the BS4.
R15 is my favourite 150cc sports bike but the love for instant torque didn't make me sell my 220 yet.
Finally shell doing some sensible adverts ❤️❤️
Sometimes i wonder, when they say, this bike Vibrates just little more, how do they measure it exactly?

Why don't you give your opinion driving the vehicle in city areas like the"Peth Areas"? Or is it that your city limits are confined to KP, Kalyani Nagar, etc?

If you're in a confusion between these two, you're most probably better with the R15..

Proud to be a owner of yamaha R15 version 3 bs4 since 33 months completed 34000 kms 90 percent of my ride is long ride only touring getting a great mileage of 50+ 😎. Draw back is life of chain sprocket is 15-17000 KMS 😭 rest no problem. Refinement levels of yamaha is in par with KTM Bajaj and tvs 👍
Lol, Yamaha is much more refined than KTMs and Bajajs.
@@vineethv1629 u r poor in English dude that's what I have written 😎
@@ganeshbharadwajshooter1913 Your reply makes no sense, Should appreciate your audacity to judge somebody's English with your English understanding skill poorer than your V3's build quality.
@@ganeshbharadwajshooter1913 bhai "on par" ya "at par" likho
@@ganeshbharadwajshooter1913 No,that's not what you wrote.
Really want to see Shumi riding the R15v4
see this vid! this doesnt feel low quality at all like the other car reviews on your channel, what happened PD?
At the time Varun asked to shumi :"Kehna kya chahte ho?",
My mind : This line is from "3 idiots" movie😅
Then next Rancho aka Shumi explains 😀👌✌️
Do a comparison between cbr300r and the interceptor
BUT....Gixxer SF250🔥
🥲🥲 i love oranges but I have blue no worries both are best in class, but i feel blue is 155cc super bike how engine changes its character how no limiters are present bikes goes 130+ easily . I love refinement of blue as compared to organe but Orange is still a love .
Take it to a new by race track, oh that's easy to find one!!!
Bro I am considering meteor 350, but I also have inclination towards Husqvarna, what do you think is a better buy? Because they both are now under 2.5L bracket.
Also r15 can also be considered as that will help me save some bucks but surely it must not be comfortable at all.
Meteor's seat heat is on lower side many can find it easy to get it and out and Husqvarna seat height is taller , Depends on your height and reach of the foot. Position of seating on both the bikes also differs alot , Take a test drive of both and choose which suits you
where's Rohan Sir? he is not coming in any of the videos
I've picked RC 200 😀
V4r15✌🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥................crush forever
R15 v1 with Daytona performance parts!
I drove a test ride bike R15 v4 with pillion, and it feels like a riding moped, yes seriously saying its overpriced bike and not worthy, if you have already 150 cc bike don't go for R15 v4
Bleed Blue 💙
Shell oil is free?
May be it should be compared with RC-125 🥺, because it comes with same price
16k difference between R15M and RC200
RC 125 doesn't even deserve a mention..it's a waste of money.
In terms of pricing Gixxer sf 250 is the best 😁
Talking to GoPro ,I want this more.
😂
sf250 kaha hai bhaiii?
I'm riding my brother's R15s(old gen) and it's low end torque is terrible too. It really annoys me sometimes actually..
It's just like the elders say: There is no replacement for displacement
damn boy I felt r15 was way more refined very good fuel efficiency. I kinda like r15 even though I bought mt.
am also riding the same , unable to let it go trouble free engine 55+ km for a liter , only thing is nothing in low end you need to constantly rev it to get the most out of it
I face the same issue in my BS4 390 Duke. Engine feels dead below 4k rpm.
@@arjunsukumaran2540 yeah.. at first I didn't feel any lag. Once I got used to it's power, I have the need to rev it all the time to get any amount of usable power.
I don't need a ton of torque on the bottom end, but some usable torque would be good..
@@twowheeledparadox yeah..
Actually I was thinking of getting a D390 retuning it for a better torque response..
I like to have a powerful top end bikes, but not with 0 low end punch.
Having a power band spread throughout the rev range(like Gixxer 250s) would also be boring imo, as it would require very less proper inputs from our side..
Usable torque + top end power would be the best combo atleast for me, as it's normally rideable and also can go faster only when we want it to under our proper input..
Let's go yeah baby
If v4 paint like ktm colour ❤❤ uncompitable bike in indian market
I wish Yamaha had R2 ❤️😂
Yamaha we need a 180-200cc engine
Ek like toh Banta hai....Shumiji ke Dance ke liye.... :P
Merpe paise hote me powerdrift hi kareed leta
Gixxer 250 vs the pulsar 250 comparison? Possible?
We shall try for that Tanay!
@@powerdriftofficial thank you
Could u please decrease the music beats volume in between the videos, its very annoying.
I dont like KTMs. Period. More than anything their design dont appeal to me. They don't look special. R15 on the other hand, I got one last month 18th August, the M Edition and boy oh boy I love riding it so much I clocked 1707 km till date. Absolutely gorgeous.
Look of RC is growing on me
Ktm Rc is best & I am duke lover
cbr 300r review when?
It's high time for Yamaha to get 125 cc and 200 cc bikes
I like my NS200 ❤
wait for RC and R15 boys start a war ! on comment section
BOTH BIKES ARE GOOD AND BAD
Price how much
I stand with Orange rc 200
Best if R15 comes with a 199cc engine
And the winner is tada....
RS 200!
R3 has already been launched In Euro5 worldwide.
What is the new excuse from Yamaha India now..!!
