Design7

The Yamaha MT-03 is a beautiful-looking naked sports bike that offers typical Japanese refinement, fast performance, and easy rideability. Also, the overall fit and finish are solid, and the bike is comfortable to ride. But the price tag is very premium, and the lack of features makes it a less value-for-money deal.

Pros & Cons of Yamaha MT 03

• What we admire in this bike

  • Engine performance is brilliant
  • Refined redline behaviour
  • Braking is very strong & spot-on
  • Suspension setup is perfectly tuned for road
  • Overall design & build quality is superb

• What could have been better

  • Design is already aged in global markets
  • No modern features like the TFT console
  • Lack of safety features like slipper clutch

Performance & Handling 10

• The strongest aspect of the MT-03 is its engine performance. The 321cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine offers a very strong performance. In our tests, the indicated top speed was upwards of 160 kmph at the BIC, Noida. The engine is very smooth and rich in torque; especially in the mid-range. Below 3,000 rpm, it doesn’t feel very torquey but post it, the bike simply flies. Also, the redline performance above 9,000 rpm is simply stupendous. There is some minor buzz from the engine around 6,000-7,000 rpm.
• The 6-speed gearbox is very slick and easy to use. There are no false neturals and the feel of using it is also very decent. 
• The diamond-type frame of the MT-03 makes it one of the sharpest handling bikes in its segment. It is fairly easy to ride, the turning radius is also moderate but the agility is superb. You can easily flick the bike and lean it extremely on tight corners. Handling experience of the R3 will make you buy one.

Ride Quality & Braking 9

• The USD front suspension is not adjustable on the MT-03 but the rear monoshock has a preload adjustment. However, you’ll not need to adjust it a lot due to the brilliant tuning. The bike is neither stiff nor soft. It handles well on the corners while the undulations of the road are easily absorbed by the suspension. But, it is the sharp potholes that’ll feel on the handlebar due to the settings. Overall, if ridden on the tarmac, the R3 remains pliant most of the time.
• Equipped with a 282mm disc at the front and 220mm disc at the rear, the braking of R3 is spot-on. The bike stops in a straight line even after braking above 150 kmph. The stability and the braking bite of the MT-03 make it a rider-oriented bike. Also, we noticed that during our tests there was no brake fade even after repeated hard braking use on the track. 

Design & Features 7

• The core area of lag for the MT-03 is the features department. It has nothing to offer to the consumers here. You only get a digital instrument console. There are no features like Quickshifter, riding modes, TFT screen, Bluetooth connectivity, and even a slipper clutch.
• The design of the MT-03 is beautiful to look at. It looks like a bigger MT-15 in every sense. The overall shape, especially the front, looks alien on the road. Not to mention the dual-colour combo of the wheels and body paint makes it look even more aggressive.

Comfort & Safety 7

• The MT-03 is a very comfortable bike to ride. The flat tubular handlebar and the upright riding stance offer a very good and comfortable position. If you ride long-distance a lot, the MT-03 offers a brilliant touring setup. Also, the fuel tank shape and the cushioned rider seat make it even more comfortable to ride for long durations.
• In terms of safety, the only feature you get is a dual-channel ABS.
