The MT-15 is a sporty street naked based on the popular Yamaha R15 sportbike. It uses the same 18.4hp/14.2Nm-making 155cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine and chassis seen on the R15. Where the MT differs from the R is that it has much shorter final drive gearing, different - minimalist - bodywork and much more upright ergonomics.
The MT-15 is offered in two variants - standard and DLX. The primary difference between the two is that the DLX uses a colour TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and varying colour options. It weighs just 141kg and comes standard with dual-channel ABS and a golden USD fork.
