Yamaha Motor has pulled the wraps off the 2019 MT-03 street-fighter motorcycle at the Bangkok Motor Show in Thailand. The updated offering is based on the YZF-R3 sharing the engine, chassis and several cycle parts but does get changes to match a naked motorcycle's mannerisms. For 2019, the updated Yamaha MT-03 gets a new white and red paint scheme in addition to the existing colour options available. Visually, styling changes are minimal and the bike carries over the design language from the older model.
The Yamaha MT-03 is the naked version of the R3, and as we found out, it’s fun, forgiving and comfortable. All great qualities but is it worth its Rs. 4.60 lakh price tag?
The on-road price for Yamaha MT-03 in Sivakasi is 3.61 Lakh. The on-road price of petrol variants of MT-03 starts from ₹ 3.61 Lakh. The top competitors of Yamaha MT-03 i.e. KTM 390 Duke price in Sivakasi starts from ₹ 3.33 Lakh & Kawasaki Ninja 300 price in Sivakasi starts from ₹ 3.17 Lakh.
