Drag Race – Yamaha R15M vs Pulsar RS200
The video starts with the YouTuber preparing for the drag race. In the first attempt, he rides the Pulsar RS200 and his friend takes the R15M. Just to warm up, he begins with a wheelie. In the actual first attempt, there was almost nothing to choose between the two bikes. They attempted the race a second time with similar results. After that, they decided to swap the riders since the launch control of bikes depends on the rider. To make the results accurate and consistent, the riders swapped bikes. However, this time around, the R15M had a very slight edge throughout the course of the race. They decided to perform the race another time. The result was the same. The R15M was ahead of the RS200 by a whisker. However, the difference might have been too small and could easily be ignored.

The transmission option includes a 6-speed manual wet, multi-clutch gearbox. The R15M is quite impressive even with the lower power output.
