KTM RC200 Vs YAMAHA R15 V4 Comparison Review in Tamil |

Single-pot motor with VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) improves the power curve throughout the rev range of the new R15. There has been a 0.2 PS decrease in peak power output to 18.4 PS, but a 0.1 Nm increase in maximum torque to 14.2. A quickshifter is available on the 6-speed automatic transmission.

Powered by the same 199.5cc single-cylinder motor as before, the new KTM RC200 churns out 25.8 horsepower and 19.5 nm of torque. There are no slipper/assist clutches here, therefore the 6-speed gearbox remains unmodified.


The RC200 is substantially more powerful than the R15 because of its bigger displacement. Although the Yamaha’s power has been reduced slightly, its performance is still excellent, especially when compared to the v3.0’s.

Front forks on the new Yamaha R15 now use USD, but the rear suspension remains a mono-shock. As before, the brand’s Deltabox frame serves as the foundation for this bike. Updates to the LCD instrument cluster now include Y-Connect linked technology (which provides phone alerts, SMS/email notifications, ride statistics, and the most recent parking location, for example).

Dual-channel ABS protects the brakes, which have a total diameter of 282 millimeters upfront and 220 millimeters behind. Other options include a traction control system and riding modes.


The new KTM RC 200 2022 shares the 200 Duke’s split-trellis frame. The front suspension consists of USD forks, while the rear suspension comprises of a mono-shock. At the front, there is a 320mm disc with ABS, and at the back, there is a 230mm disc with ABS.

An LCD instrument cluster from the 250 Adventure has been installed on the RC, making it larger than the old RC’s. Although it doesn’t come with a Bluetooth option. Riding modes and traction control are also missing, but these features aren’t really necessary on a motorcycle of this size.

Yamaha R15 V4 price in Chennai is Rs 180439 (ex-showroom price) whereas the KTM RC 200 price in Chennai is Rs 208845 (ex-showroom). The engine in the R15 V4 makes 18.4 PS and 14.2 Nm .
