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 R15S vs Yamaha XSR155 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.

What we have actually checked

Each is a dated change we applied to a published ex-showroom price after checking it. A logged change may be a distributor's revision or our own correction coming into line with the official figure — the log says which way each one moved, and when, not why.
