The bike has received Metallic Blue colour option which, as the name suggests, combines blue and grey paints, somewhat similar to the bigger bikes in the Yamaha's R series of sports bikes - YZF-R6 and YZF-R1. In addition to that, the company has also rolled out a new Matte Black colour on the R15. This paint theme combines a glossy black fuel tank and white graphics on its fairing. This specific colour scheme looks similar to the Dark Knight colour that's also available in the Indian market. In addition to that, there is also a new Matte Silver paint that combines contrasting neon yellow wheels and accents on the bodywork. Save for the new paint options, the rest of the details on the Indonesian-spec 2021 Yamaha R15 V3 remains as it is.
