      The 155cc Yamaha MT-15 delivers brilliant top-end performance, allowing riders to hit high speeds effortlessly. It's a bike built for thrill-seekers who enjoy powerful acceleration and smooth performance on open roads. The seat is well-cushioned and adequately wide, offering decent comfort for daily rides. In terms of fuel efficiency, I’ve been getting a mileage of up to 45 kmpl during city use, which is quite impressive for a performance-oriented bike. Overall, the MT-15 strikes a solid balance between speed, style, and practicality.

      This is a very good bike. It runs smoothly, and the engine performance is excellent. On the road, it feels powerful and dominating any normal bike would struggle to match it. Overall, it’s truly an impressive ride.
