Yamaha is reportedly planning to re-enter the large bike segment of India. The Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer plans to launch the YZF-R7 by the end of this year. This move will further strengthen Yamaha’s Indian market scenario. The YZF-R7 is expected to be launched in India by mid-2025.
The price is likely to be in the range of Rs 9 lakh to Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom). When it will be launched, it will compete with bikes like the Honda CBR650R, Triumph Daytona 660, and Kawasaki Ninja 650. Let’s learn more about this Yamaha motorcycle in detail:

The YZF-R7 is inspired by the bigger brothers R1 and the R6. It’s sleek, with the fairing over the side panels and the rear section raised upwards. Furthermore, these features add a dynamic as well as an aggressive look.
