As Indian R3 was sold for a limited period, it could have got the same shades if BS4 compliant engine for the motorcycle was developed. The theme of Metallic Black Yamaha R25 is inspired from the liter class MT series motorcycles as buyers will get the same combination of paint on body and alloy wheels as the higher spec motorcycle.

The motorcycle looks identical to R3 in design aspects while performance takes a back foot when compared to the bigger engine. Still, it is quite powerful when compared to other quarter liter machines around the segment. Primary rivals to Yamaha R25 internationally are Honda CBR250RR, Suzuki GSX-250R and Kawasaki Ninja 250. As of now, Yamaha has no plans to launch R25 in India.

It comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The India spec R3 was very impressive as it came with 41.4 BHP at 10750 rpm and 29.6 Nm at 9000 rpm. Both the motorcycles are equipped with identical parts and hence, the 14 liter fuel tank makes them good for almost 300+ km of overall range in mixed riding conditions (highway and city).
