Yamaha MT-15 likely to be launched in India on March 15

- MT-15 liked to be launched on 15 March

- Will go up against KTM 125 Duke

- Could be priced around Rs 1.25 lakhs

India Yamaha Motors is likely to launch their most awaited streetfighter, the MT-15 on 15 March.  Hinted upon by one of the Yamaha officials, this news comes in right after the launch of the FZ V3.0 late last month. 

We had reported about the possible February-March launch for the 2019 MT-15 a few weeks ago. Yamaha is reportedly focusing more on the premium segment now and the launch of the MT-15 confirms that. This naked streetfighter will be positioned between the FZ V3.0 and the YZF-R15 V3.0. 

The MT-15 makes 19bhp at 10,000rpm, which is same as the YZF-R15. The torque figure stands at 14.7Nm at 8500rpm. This 155cc motor will be mated to a six-speed gearbox. However, expect the MT-15 to get revised gear ratios. Also, just like in the YZF-R15, the MT-15 is likely to get dual-channel ABS. The India-spec version will feature telescopic forks on the front, as opposed to the USD forks on the international version, and will get monoshock at the rear. The gross vehicle weight (GVW) of the MT-15 is 288kg. It also gets a longer wheelbase of 1335mm, and is also wider than the R15 at 800mm. The length and height of the MT-15 stand at 2020mm and 1070mm respectively.

Once launched, the MT-15 will go up against the recently launched KTM 125 Duke. We are expecting a price tag of around Rs 1.25 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi).
