- Yamaha's R15 in its latest V3.0 guise is more striking to look at and is packing more performance and tech.

Rishaad Mody brings the two together to tell you which sporty looking (and riding) motorcycle you should pick.

I would love to get an R15, but it's crazy expensive here in Mexico.
The RS200 is cheaper, has ABS and produces 24.5 bhp.
It's a no-brainer: the Pulsar is one step ahead in every regard.
Heart says: r15
Mind says: pulsar rs 200
Pocket says: second hand splendor
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Lol 😂
Good bro
😂😂😂😂
Heart says r15 and mind says rs 200
Faraz Khan I say apache rr310
but wallet says V15
same feeling
Go with R15
But since the rise in petrol price brain says platina ! 😂🤣
I can put it down as both the bikes are really awesome but there are few pros and cons associated with both. Just before buying RS 200 i took a test drive for Yamaha R15 V3 and following is what i can quote to the buyers:-
1) In terms of refinement and look Yamaha R15 V3 beats RS 200 hands down. amazing engine refinement with almost zero vibrations.
2) I personally found that RS 200 accelerates better as it has more BHP and Torque. That engine just doesn't know how to sweat even after running for 4 hours at a stretch. But then it has vibrations but they are manageable and not like Royal enfield bullets.
3) The riders triangle which you all will be aware off is much comfortable at RS 200 then Yamaha R15 V3. Even the seat of Pulsar RS 200 is more accommodating then Yamaha R15 V3. Wish we still had the option for Honda CBR 150R things could have been more engaging. That bike rests in between Yamaha R15 and Pulsar RS 200. Honda is no less than Yamaha when it comes to engineering.
Anyways if you want a real comfortable sports kind of looking bike RS 200 can never be beaten and it will remain pick of customer who are more into daily commuting and highway riding and touring. But if you don't have any problem with the committed stance of R15 V3 then it is a great bike as its power on papers might look less than RS 200 but it is not at all slower than RS 200. Happy biking folks !!!!
I am a big fan of R15 and Yamaha but RS 200 is value for money
Golden Attitude Yamaha engines are more refined than bajaj don’t go on paper specs R15 v3 being a 155 cc reaches a top speed of 158 kmph bajaj bikes are always come with rev limiters you can unlock it but there is always a threat to engine doin that
You spend 20 times the money you save on your visits to the Bajaj service centers
Rutwik Hiwalkar do you mean less than 150 but (158kmph on a speedometer)
#speedoerror
Rutwik Hiwalkar hahahah😂😂😂 158km/hrs bro r15 v3 145 km/hrs jata hai console speed 155km/hrs r15 v3 me bhi speedo error hai
Company ne aise hi ullu 🦉 banane ke liye diya hai... dekho or bano. 2 saal se RS chal rha hu 152 kmph pr jakr rukti hai kayi bar check kr chuka hu real speed hai
Around corners, there is nothing as forgiving as rs200 in this price range!
ok,have fun with that 130 section tyres✌🏻😂
*Hit like for Pulsar RS200!* 🤩🏍️🔥🚀😎
Only dts-i
I hope I was an ordinary commuter to like the Bajaj
Favorite bike
Pulsar the best bike
RS200 the Bahubali.......looks like Body builder strong....
i m going to buy tomorrow...Gongrats me...plz
Congrats bro!!🤗
Two days back i bought 220 abs....now am desiring to buy yamaha or 200 rs

rs200 looks dope
beast +beauty ❤
one day i will get it
You will
60k mai baich di Maine
Ghatiya hai pulser
PULSAR ruling since 2001
Trust me, RS200 is very much stable and fun to ride for long as well as short rides.
Much more practical then r15.
12k for ABS is worth it saved my life many times
As a owner of pulsar rs200 abs.. i will say that this machine is simply beast and value for money and has more power with abs and comfortable in city as well as touring on highway..
Even i own rs 200. Don't you feel that the bike produces too much vibration which is irritating while riding? If u have solution for this, pls let me know
abs doesnt add power.
In term of fuel consumption, which motor is more cheaper
@@RaghunandanReddyC he meant power to bring the bike to halt or slow down more efficiently and safely. that itself is a power of this bike or u can call it a capability
@@adamluthfie7 obviously R15 V3 as it has a smaller 155cc engine in compare to 200cc engine of RS 200.
Nope.. if I have to choose I go for R15 V3. Strongly recommended that , rs200 is best tool for touring.
U guys are by far the most reliable channel out there today in India ... Everything you said in this video about both the bikes are spot on! The content delivered in this video was easy to comprehend and it was a pleasure watching this comparison!
Thank you autocar for an unbiased review of these fabulous machines ....
*Proud owner of Pulsar RS200 ABS...my one & only **#RedBeast* 🤩😎🏍️🔥🚀😈
Bro does it has fuel injection system?
Saiyan God yes bro
😂😂😂
Saiyan God Yes it does have!😊
Which color? 😅
I was also confused between the two but i purchased R15 V3 because of its superior quality. Bajaj is only for 20k kilometers.
Rs200 is full package of power,economy & comfort.
But her aerodynamics are not good
Nicely put together and well judged, and Rishad as always was composed !
Rs200 Beast Bro🔥🔥❣
RS RS RS 😍♥️🔥....Good for long rides and city rides..
1:40 Bumble Bee, did you just transformed into RS 200?
Rs200 is a beast
V3 is the beast in 155 cc segment is the king of 155 cc
I think Yamaha should give it a 200 cc engine . The torque produce by the 150 cc motor is just 15 nm . This has ample power though but what use is that if we can't accelerate it faster
when it comes to bikes, it is obvious to go with powerful RS 200, over any other bike for sure
R15 v3.. Quality and durability
Stylish and fuel efficient with decent power......
Bajaj bikes can't give the confidence it offers while cornering
crk vr quality is worst in v3
Facts cornering is better in r15v3
material quality so cheap in v3
@@derhabvlogs6743 even better than rs200
DeRha Z Bsty
So that it goes fast
R15 now gets dual channel. Abs. It is just the riding posture. I guess one gets used to it after riding it for a week or so and practically thinking, who wants to ride at 140kmph on a normal basis. Moreover the mileage is greater in V3 i guess. Personally I love the V3 but no hates to the Rs 200 because in the bajaj segmemt, RS200 is the one and only bike I would prefer.
VVA and Deltabox lovers hit like 😉
R15 is just smooth to ride and comfortable..rs just has only power..after few years as we check rs will get engine problems..but yamaha engine is smart...if there is no ABS in R15 its perfect braking...its yamaha technology...
my pulsar rs200 is 3 years old, ran about 45k kms, no engine problems till date..
I dont know which bike to go....yotally confusing
@@avikroy3231 is is bs3 or bs4
R15 v3 just needs a abs thats all
bike lover that means its getting into the price range of the duke 200....
bike lover that's the point right..! It's 2018 ABS should be mandatory
bike lover Amen
And what about the engine..R15 is 150 cc and pulsar 200 ...
Not good for night ride
So glad you do these reviews in English. Coming from the North East, my Hindi is not very good. Awesome video guys!
Rs200 best ever
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 for RS never ends 😘
RS200-beast in 200cc motorcycles
2 years of RS200 experience and this bike still not fail to Surprise me 😍Thumbs up for R15V3looks but RS200 is a winner among the mid range bike in India
I always love the pulsar vibration while accelerating ...it is like adrenaline.
An excellent Shootout n good verdict.. The RS is an all-rounder while the R15 is a track specialist with that wonderful looks!!
It's remarkable to see the new R15's engine performance which is so close to the bigger Pulsar!!
RS is best 😎😎😎
RS fan's like her 👈👈👈
*My favourite is rs 200*
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Don't mess with rs200 (INDIAN 200cc Beast)
Bajaj: Theres no replacement for displacement!
Yamaha: Hold my beer...
Its Me Again ! Lol
Cheers buddy🍷😜
Rs is better in performance other hand R15 is better in Looks
Was totally a fan of RS after watching this video , next day went to Bajaj showroom but their were no testmodel for test drive so went to Yamaha showroom just to check the r15
and man
That was the best decision of my life
R15 is far better than RS 200 in every aspect looks , mileage and safety
Booked it right There and she was in my garage just in 5 days
Riding rc no one will look twice at the bike but r15 is God in grabbing everyone's attention
So happy with r15 (grey and red colour)
RS 200 makes more sense with the optional ABS.
But R15v3 is such a beauty to look at, I mean I would buy it for its looks alone.
That looks worth the money and rest all are not bad as well i know it's 155 but has gotten enough power to compete with any 200cc bikes
Just love v3😍
The rs 200 2020 is better
The front view of RS is dope but side one is disappointing.
RS is Rocket bike..👌👌
Bcz Rs Have 24 bhp
R1 have 20
No H2 is
RS is better for indians
And it looks good in white and blue paint scheme
I'll go for R15 v3.0 😍😘👌🏻
Rohit Singh looks very much stylish but if they provided ABS & LED turn lights 🤗
Not only stylish but also better quality than bajaj
Adarsh vikram quality sirf refine engine hai yamaha ki aur baki sab bekar hai compare to rs200
Rohit Singh
Go for it
After all r15 is an YAMAHA product, you can trust it blindly
I brought all new Yamaha r15 v3 it's just awesome bike feels so good, mileage I'm getting up to 50kmpl very good fuel efficiency bike, value for money too, I love it
channayya .s hiremath how about braking?without Abs R15 not worth for money i guess
channayya .s hiremath
Really 50kmpl mileage?
Quality is not upto the mark i should have gone with dominar 400 .cheap plastic im upset with my bike
@@amardeep809 yes bro i have also tested the mileage and it give around 47-48 kmpl considering the speed limits and riding style... The lowest mileage i got is around 38 kmpl
Digital console of R15 obviously looks attractive...but the fact is Yamaha use same switchgear like Fz25 which is lesser price than V3..and same indicator setup (No LED)..Where in RS u got backled switches...which looks beautiful specially at night...and u got led indicator which is premium...
With that kind of riding position on the V3 you just don't get enough confidence and furthur it's a bit tough to go over the speed breakers on highspeeds .. The riding position is too commited I have neck , wrist pain whenever I ride my bike ...
Bro you are not sitting in a right posture then.
Lol, they have that riding position to improve handling by keeping your weight on the front tyre. Learn how to properly sit on a sports bike with committed posture.
@@sanidhyapratapsingh5685 right... And rajat u r also right... If u know how to sit on a particular class of bike then it will never give you any kind of pain... I sometimes ride my friends 2016 ktm rc 390 which is way more committed compared to r15 v3 and i don't have complaints about any kind of pain... I am 6'1"
@@sanidhyapratapsingh5685 LOL so you mean Harley and Enfields are stupid to give an upright posture to their riders. For teenagers this committed riding stance will not be a problem for even a 1000 kms run but for people who have crossed 35 age will show signs of back pain and fatigue for even driving such a bike for 300 kms at one stretch.
RS 200 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Nice comparison video.. Rs 200 is the best bike
Value for money is pulsar rs 200. If u also like pulsar then hit like .
I'm getting a R15 V3 in march as my birthday gift ....it is the Queen of 150 segment 🤘🏻
R15 v3 is the best beginners bike in India. Sexy look, super smooth engine, great performance 0 t0 100 in 10 sec, awesome f efficiency 30 to 52 kmpl, affordable, amazing handling, Japanese reliability, slippers clutch, perimeter frame, wider tyre, low set mono shock, low clip ons, high rear set pegs.......cons:no abs, brakes suck, headlight not bright enough........still r15 v3 is the best toy to hone your skills, yeeeeeeees yamaha!!👌👌👌👌
RS200 value for money bike and far better than r15
In terms of look r15 looks gud
rs200 looks really rubbish 😂 I love the looks of r15 😍
Just faster in a straight and its better? The r15 destroys the rs200 in a track. And talking about quality well its like comparing apple to micromax
@@predator5124 RS 200 is a more practical bike than R15. When i wanted to buy a sports bike at age of 38 I had very few options. As if all companies told me that its only for teenagers or people who never had a back injury in a accident. I finally decided to buy a dominar as it anyways will give me a great riding speed at highways. I saw this white and blue color beast of a beauty called RS 200. Took its test drive and found that it is a great comfortable sports bike which can be taken on highways or daily commute. Why should only teenagers get chance to drive sports bike. I am proud of my choice. You will not be able to drive with me on your R15 for 18 to 20 hours at a stretch with just 2 to 4 tea breaks. That is the capability RS 200 brings with itself. R15 undoubtedly a great bike simply doesn't have the practicality with it. What to do with all that smoothness and looks if you start feeling in 4 to 5 hours of drive that your back has been hit by a hammer.
I was waiting for this. Thank you autocar for this
who ever they may b... father is father in a family... so.... pulsar is father of all sports bikes in india..
Naresh Nani lol just look at R3 vs Dominar
Satya Biri price also matters while comparing bikes in india........ pulsars are value for money bikes.......
+yash chopra u talking bout value for money?? u better call it "vibration in high speed" xD pulsar has the worst high speed experience...
+ViShnu VJN and comparing a 200 cc bike with 155 cc bike dosent make any sense at all, "ohh wait i think it does" that pulsar suck even tho it has 45 cc more xD and dont say that yall comparing them because of the price similarity, r15 v3 comes with newer tech which rs lacks at, and yeah yamaha is a much much better motorcycle production company than bajaj, so plz do reply with knowledge..or maybe make comparison videos bout
@@satyabiri4159 Hello sir, R3 is a sportier bike, Dominar is a power cruiser, touring bike kkkkkkk, please understand the informations between these bikes.. Next upcoming dominar with 40ps power @8500rpm at this year 2k19..
Yeah rs!!!!!!
Look of pulsar just awesome
I'm not making hate between bajaj & Yamaha owners but although r15 v3 has ability to win race in track or long end races... specially in cornering....& 200rs is king on edging traffics & city rides ..but it's still great thing to watch how 155cc bike has compared with 200cc bike...&💖 I have both bikes & both are bad boys in their ways🔥🔥🔥
And the winner is #RS200
Rs200 is almost forgotten now. I used to love the yellow color. I don't know why bajaj removes one of the best colors. Also dominar is almost its rival too. Almost for 30k to 35k extra we get bajaj's flagship. Also the abs variant of rs200 is a bit on the pricer side. Hope rs200 comes back again with some changes.
Most probably the Pulsar RS200 is the bike I'll buy in future. A big NO to bikes without ABS. No compromise with safety on Indian roads, especially at speeds beyond 60 kph, which can kill one. Also, no fun riding a bike below 200 cc these days, decent power is the new normal now. Besides performance, rider comfort does matters a lot. However, my perspective is based on my experience with 160 km up and down journeys with the Dominar 400.
The handle bar should be minimize of RS 😎
R15 V3 is best!
I LOVE IT 💗💗😱
RS200 sure looks better on paper but I am not sure how that engine would hold up after 40-50k KM. R15 seems to have better overall components and should be much more reliable in the long run but I do not own either so I can only guess :)
I'm go with RS200 👍❤
RS 200 Anyday ❤
I love RS
I think honda cbr 150r has gone extinct.
haha...yeah
Rs always at its best it's a beast man😎😈
When u will compare ns200 vs rtr 200
Without ABS, I personally think that
RS 200 is far superior than R15 V3.0 ...
Rethink again now r15 have ABS 🙄
@@stormycloud4306 now Rs have dual-channel abs
RS 200 is dominant & R15 is recessive
R15 looks so much better but its great to see Bajaj never giving up on the pulsar and always trying something new
RS in not best RS is big beast like if u agree people
I would choose an R15 v3 for the built quality, refined engine, 140 rear tyres, led lights and awesome looks .... But RS200 inspite of the noisy looks its more practical with an affordable price, single channel abs, 200 cc ktm based engine, comfortable riding position which ultimately wins the game and the best value for money!
Proud owner of R15 V3 and happy that i chose Yamaha over Bajaj.
Nobody wants extra 44cc just to get a bit more speed and rattling sounds along with poor service.
People talking about riding position should get platina. Sports bikes are meant to be ridden that way
Plastic quality on the yamaha though 😂😂😂😂😂
@@Neetpgaspi HAHAHAHAahahahahahaha. Pulsar is also made of plastic.
I completely agree with you dear💕
we need more this type of cmprsn...
Rs 200 exhaust sound is superb
Nice comparison man, I pick R15 over pulsar all day.
I believe the R15 is more fun because you can pin the throttle anytime, anywhere and while doing so plasters a smile on your face
RS 200 better than R15
Ya better in power but dont last long man r15s is 10yr old model and my frnd owned one which is 9yrs old still in good condition he passed 65k kms no prblm for engine till date .. bajaj bikes nvr last long and resale is very poor
Adarsh Vikram, Bajaj has improved too much now. Don't compare old Bajaj bikes to the current generation ones ... They have come a long way after their partnership with KTM. Their NS,RS & Dominar has KTM tech in them. Any bike will last long if it's well maintained.
I just need an r15 with a more comfortable seating position
Once in a life in this segment.....im in love with r15 i am ready to take back pain
Team thanks for the great comparison's
Was waiting for the same since long
R15 may be better but I love RS 😍😍😍
I really love r15 v3.0 hope soon ill buy it.
RS 200 king of the 200cc segment
1st this both bikes prise are very same r15 havin no abs 150cc low bhp with40avregae but Rs rs200 have 200cc with 25bhp power with Abs option there is no comparison with Rs..... Rs200 is Beast bike ever in 200cc

both bikes are cool and m having both bike in my house 😍😍😍😍
