Yamaha MT-03 is a street bike available in only 1 variant and 2 colours. The Yamaha MT-03 is powered by 321cc BS6 engine which develops a power of 41.4 bhp and a torque of 29.5 Nm. With both front and rear disc brakes, Yamaha MT-03 comes up with anti-locking braking system.

India Yamaha Motor has finally expanded its MT line-up with the launch of the MT-03. This bike will rival the famous KTM 390 Duke in India.

This motorcycle is based on the YZF-R3, and thus it shares the same underpinnings as its fully-faired sibling. However, the MT-03 carries a streetfighter design along with upright ergonomics. Other styling elements comprise a projector-style headlight with LED DRLs, a muscular fuel tank, a split-style seat, a side-slung exhaust, and 17-inch split-style alloy wheels on both ends. The feature list comprises full-LED lighting, a fully digital instrument cluster, and a dual-channel ABS. The instrument console houses the speedometer, odometer, trip meter, tachometer, fuel gauge, and gear position indicator.

The mechanical specifications will be similar to the YZF-R3, and thus the MT-03, too, uses a 321cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin motor. Linked to a six-speed gearbox, this engine makes 42bhp and 29.6Nm on the international-spec model. We expect to see similar numbers on the India-bound version. Meanwhile, the suspension tasks will be handled by upside-down telescopic front forks, a rear monoshock, and single-disc brakes on both wheels. Then, the 17-inch alloy wheels are shod in 110/70 front and 140/70 rear tyres.

The Yamaha MT-03 is priced quite high and is the most expensive among its rivals. It is being imported from Indonesia and is sold in two colours- Cyan Blue and Black.
