Engine specifications and other details of the India-spec Yamaha MT-15 have leaked through a 'Type Approval certificate'.
According to the document, the Yamaha MT-15 sold in India is likely to be powered by a BS-IV compliant 155.1cc engine that produces 19 BHP @ 10,000 rpm. The bike measures 2,020 mm in length, 800 mm in width and 1,070 mm in height. Its wheelbase is 1,335 mm and the gross vehicle weight (GVW) is 288 kg.
The Yamaha MT-15 was unveiled in Thailand last year. While, the bike is based on the YZF-R15 V3.0, the Indian version is likely to get conventional telescopic front suspension instead of upside-down forks. The bike could be offered with a 6-speed gearbox, while the braking setup is likely to be similar to the R15 V3.0 featuring disc brakes at both ends equipped with ABS.
