This has been an important launch for Hong Leong Yamaha for 2015. The 150cc moped has been available in the neighbouring market that is Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand. Exciter 150 FI, Jupiter MX King and now in Malaysia, it is named Y15ZR.
I have been asking about the name, why it is not named 150LC, to Mr Voon YK of HLYM. I asked whether the name Y15ZR is choosen because it is the same like Y125Z which is a high performance moped so that the user will think that the Y15ZR is also one part of high performance product from Yamaha? Mr Voon YK said yes, how you perceive the bike is correct.
Also asked is whether this Y15ZR is to replace the Y125Z soon? No, the Yamaha Y125Z is still in production, but since it is a long production bike (old bike), it might be stopped someday. But not anytime soon as HLYM tries to comply to the government for any rules and regulation regarding the 2-stroke bike in Malaysia. For your information, any manufacturer can still continue to produce their existing 2-stroke bike if they follow the rules and regulation but cannot produce a new line of 2-stroke model. Hence, we can see Y125Z is still available from Yamaha and Dinamik 120 still available from Modenas. But why not Kawasaki KRR150?
Y15ZR comes with 3 colour to choose that is Red, Blue and Black. The one that interest me is the blue colour. It got that really nice blue, grey and white combination that looks very good in real life rather that in the picture. The black and red is nice too, but as it is from Yamaha, we know that blue works best for them since their official colour is Race-Blu.
The engine of the Y15ZR is 4-stroke, 4-valve SOHC and liquid-cooled. Bore and stroke is 57.0 x 58.7 mm that is the same number with the one in the engine of Yamaha FZ150i. This might actually indicate that it is using the same engine with few tuning here and there. It can generates maximum output at 15.4PS (11.3kW) at 8,500RPM and 13.8Nm of torque at 7,000RPM. Comparing to the 2014 Yamaha FZ150i, we can see that it is 0.9kW lower with FZ150i output at 12.2kW.
One more thing to notice about the engine is that now it is using fuel injection system replacing the carburetor system in the 135LC previously.
Looks closely at the kick-starter location and you can see that there is no kick-starter.
The rear tyre now are super wide, wider than 135LC and FZ150i, at 120/70-17. That is wiiiidddeee.
UPDATE (11/8/2015): 2015 Yamaha Y15ZR 150 FI price is RM7,999.82 incl. GST (basic price). For comparison, 2014 Yamaha FZ150i is RM8,600 and 135LC 5-speed at RM7,000. All basic price.
UPDATE (19/9/2015): Many reader were asking about the availability of center box (bakul) for Y15ZR. Yes, it is available and can be fitted nicely. Refer to the picture below.

Yamaha laku, sb design moto cntik tapi teknologi moto kebelakang…
Suzuki x laku bkn sb moto x bagus tapi design yg sedikit mengecawakan tapi suzuki teknologi 10 taun kedepan kalu nk dibandingkan moto jenama lain
aku bawak lc135 top speed 110. gt128 ilek je potong.kah3.. noob gilak
Harganya lebih tinggi kerana Yamaha lebih dominan di pasaran Malaysia walaupun teknologi Suzuki mendahului zaman dan lebih tahan lasak.
Kat sini 4.7. Hahaha wallahualam
arena-motor
Ntah la jap kata 4.7, jap kata 4.2. Senang cite cari je brochure dia. Konfem la spec kt situ dah ada
Mhal sbb branding…
Not worth even single peny…
Sya cuma crita had keljuan yg tlah d’tetapkn bila product msuk m’sia spec dan keupayaan sbenar tlah d’kurangkn dri sbenar bro..itu je knyataan dan pndpat saya xcitapn soal gps,kelajuan santai,top speed fzi or aes…sekian~
Why it’s so cheap?
X semestinya lebih tinggi angka kelajuan moto tu makin laju laa moto tu..cth ninja 150rr meter top 200kmh tp yg sebenarnya ikut GPS lebih kurang 150-160kmh je..x caya Tanya org yg berpengalaman..aku bwk fz yg org kata motor lembab je enjin STD lg..bwk santai 120kmh dh dpt saman aes..terkejut den kene flash..guna meter GPS utk hasil speed yg tepat & try cari perbezaan error meter moto sendiri dgn meter GPS.. Nanti nampak laa ape yg aku sampaikn
HLY suka ambik kesempatan mentang2 la moto keluaran sntiasa laku je..
Kalu la belang r buat penambahan pakai cverset mcm LC arga confirm x smpai 8k.. kalu main long distance antara belang n yz15zr dh tentu belang lg laju…
Mksud sya tu..whole pakej utk kelajuanlh bro..d’mudhkn bhasa ‘meter’ ada ke org crita bro’motor kau brapa hp dpat?’…dan kna aes ke mtr?…munkin jaranglh kot.
Lc135 still keluar lg? Atau digantikan terus dgn Y15ZR ni?
135LC masih ada.
4.2 je tangki dia. Saing2 lagenda fi je
