Q. R15 V3 vs RC200, best bike?

Selecting the right bike would depend on several factors such as your budget preference on the segment, features required, engine options, brand preference, etc. The R15 v3 remains one potent small-capacity supersport for beginners. In its version 3.0 guise, it has become sharper and more focused, making it great for sport riding or track enthusiasts. However, the aggressive riding stance could cause discomfort if you intend to use the bike for daily commuting and the quality of components has also gone down. Yamaha YZF R15 V3 is powered by a 155cc engine that generates a max power of 18.6 PS @ 10000 rpm and a max torque of 14.1 Nm @ 8500 rpm which comes with a price tag of Rs. 1.52 Lakh (Ex-showroom Price: Delhi). On the other hand, the KTM RC 200 continues to be one of the best beginner’s sports bikes you can buy if you’re looking to get into track riding or racing. Big-bike feels in a small bike package. RC 200 is equipped with a 199 CC engine that generates a max power of 25 PS @ 10000 rpm and a max torque of 19.2 Nm @ 8000 rpm which comes with a price tag of Rs. 2.04 Lakh (Ex-showroom Price, Delhi).
