Our verdict

We are not calling a winner here — the data does not support one.

On ex-showroom price, on every specification we hold for both bikes, and on each brand's showroom and service network in Nepal, the Yamaha MT-15 V1 BS6 vs Yamaha R15 V3 are close enough that picking one on our numbers alone would be inventing a difference. The two things that will actually decide it are the two this page cannot measure: which dealer is nearer to where you live, and which one you prefer after a test drive or ride.
