Celebrating India’s Republic Day, India Yamaha Motor brought riders together on two-wheels with an exclusive XSR155 Café Ride - an inspiring celebration of self-expression, shared passion, and the joy of motorcycling. Held across 10 major cities in India, the rides saw over 500 owners of XSR155 motorcycle and enthusiasts coming together, united by a common love for riding and the distinctive character of the XSR brand.

Guided by Yamaha’s customer centric philosophy, the XSR155 Café Ride created a space for riders to connect, interact, and celebrate their individuality. As convoys moved through city lanes and open highways, the XSR155 stood out with its retro sport styling, agile handling, and everyday practicality – embodying Yamaha’s belief in motorcycling as a true form of personal expression.

The event seamlessly followed the popular XSR Café Ride format - a community touchpoint for XSR owners. Café pit-stops and informal conversations encouraged riders to share stories, exchange experiences, and build lasting connections. The sight of the entire group in XSR branded merchandise and tricolour badges added to the day’s celebratory spirit, showcasing a deep sense of camaraderie and brotherhood, affirming that motorcycling is as much about shared journeys as it is about the machines. The atmosphere reflected Yamaha’s commitment to fostering a responsible, inclusive, and passionate riding culture – one rooted in safety, mutual respect, and the simple pleasure of riding.

Through initiatives like the Café Ride, Yamaha continues to strengthen its bond with customers. United by shared values, XSR155 riders celebrated Republic Day in true Yamaha spirit.
