The Yamaha WR155 R is a dual-purpose motorcycle (on-road & off-road) launched in Indonesia. It is powered by a 155cc liquid-cooled engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA), paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The engine delivers around 16.5 hp at 10,000 rpm and 14.3 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm, tuned differently from the YZF-R15 to suit off-road performance.
Built on a semi-double cradle frame, the WR155 R features long-travel suspension with 41 mm telescopic forks at the front and a preload-adjustable rear monoshock. It rolls on 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels with dual-purpose tires, while braking is handled by a 240 mm front disc and 220 mm rear disc — though ABS is not included.
In terms of size, the bike measures 2,145 × 840 × 1,200 mm, with a wheelbase of 1,430 mm, ground clearance of 245 mm, and a tall seat height of 880 mm, giving it excellent off-road clearance. Despite its tall stance, the WR155 R remains lightweight at only 134 kg.
Additional highlights include an 8.1-liter fuel tank, a fully digital instrument panel with gear indicator and fuel consumption data, a hazard lamp switch, and a traditional halogen headlight that emphasizes durability and simplicity.
