The Yamaha MT-03 is a naked version of the fully-faired YZF-R3. Yamaha plans to launch it in India to expand the MT base in the country. However, the launch date is still uncertain. We don't know yet if Yamaha will launch the MT-03 along with the R3 or after that.
The MT-03 has a 321cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine paired with a six-speed gearbox. The engine delivers 42bhp of maximum power and 29.6Nm of peak torque.
The MT-03 has an aggressive front look with a projector headlight unit with LED DRLs. The bike also has a muscular fuel tank with creases and cuts that add to its overall athletic look. The suspension system of the MT-03 includes USD front forks and a rear mono-shock. The braking system includes a 298mm front and a 200mm rear disc, with ABS. The brakes are fitted on 17-inch alloy wheels with 110/70 front and 140/70 rear tyres.
The MT-03's price could be around Rs 3.7 lakh (ex-showroom). It will face competition from the KTM 390 Duke and the BMW G 310 R in the Indian market.
When launching in India, the new Yamaha R3 and MT-03 will be sold as completely built-up units (CBU). This means they will be imported as fully assembled bikes from abroad. Later on, they will become CKD production models. This means they will be imported as partially assembled kits and assembled locally in India.
