Specifications And Features Of The Yamaha MT 15 V2

Posted by Digital Marketer on February 3rd, 2023

Yamaha's updated mt 15 modified is now available in India for Rs 1, 59,900. (Ex-showroom Delhi). Since its first release, this is the first significant revision to the nude. Can you tell me how drastically the new model differs from its predecessor? And is the added cost fair? Instead of the telescopic fork that came standard on the first generation of Yamaha MT-15s, the newer model's upside-down 37mm forks are taken directly from the Yamaha R15 V4. That not only makes it seem better, but it should also make it easier to control.

The box-section swingarm used by the first-generation MT-15 has been replaced with an aluminum unit in the second-generation model, produced in Japan. This should further improve the machine's already impressively agile riding qualities.

Features

The 2022 Yamaha MT-15 is mechanically identical to the 2021 model. A liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, SOHC, 4-valve, 155cc fuel-injected engine with a Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) system generates 18.1 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 14.Nm of peak torque at 7,500 rpm in the MT-15 naked streetfighter. A 6-speed manual transmission with a slipper and an assist clutch is mated to the power plant. The MT-15 V2.0 is built on Yamaha's Delta box frame and has new 37mm inverted front forks up front and a rear mono-shock to smooth out the rough stuff.

Single-channel ABS aids the braking performance of a front 282mm disc and a rear 220mm disc. 17-inch rims are used with 100/80-17M/C (front) and 140/70R17 tubeless tyres on the 2022 Yamaha MT-15. The 2022 Yamaha MT-15 also has a brand-new, completely digital LCD cluster that shows a moving message of the driver's choosing when the engine is started.

Changes in gear, gear position, and VVA indications are shown on the new screen. Using the Y-Connect app and Bluetooth, the new screen can deliver notifications for incoming calls, emails, and texts, as well as the charge level of your smartphone.

Information on the new MT-15 V2.0, including maintenance suggestions, parking location, fuel usage, malfunctions, and more, is available to owners through the Y-Connect App.

Yamaha has not made any significant changes to the MT-15's overall appearance, but the naked streetfighter has received a fresh set of graphics that further amplify its menacing vibe. Yamaha has added two new colors, Cyan Storm and Racing Blue, to its MT-15 for 2022. Yamaha's MT-15 V2.0 comes in four hues: Ice Fluo-Vermillion, Metallic Black, the new Red, and Black.

Eishin Chihana, Chairman of Yamaha Motor India Group of Companies, made the following remarks during the unveiling of the 2022 Yamaha MT-15: "Yamaha Fans have always admired the MT-15 for its excellent handling and performance but have been impatiently waiting for a more advanced version of the Dark Warrior. As part of its continuing 'The Call of the Blue' brand strategy, Yamaha's release of the new MT-15 Version 2.0 is a shining example of the company's ability to exceed consumer expectations.

The Yamaha MT-15 is the YZF-R15 stripped down to its bare bones. While the R15 prioritizes track performance above all else, the MT-15 prioritizes practicality by providing a more traditional riding posture and a higher handlebar. Like its fully-faired sister, the MT-15 is equipped with the latest and greatest conveniences, but unlike the R15, it only has a single-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS).

Yamaha's MT-15 is a track-focused variant of the more aggressive R15. The overall proportions of the MT-15 are 2,020mm in length, 800mm in width, and 1,070mm in height. Ten liters is the maximum capacity of the gas tank.

The 155cc single-cylinder engine in the Yamaha MT-15 generates 19bhp power and 14.7Nm of torque. The six-speed manual transmission pairs with the engine's liquid cooling system. In addition, Yamaha claims 45km/l in fuel economy for the MT-15.

The front tire of the Yamaha MT-15 has a 100/80-17 M/C 52P section, while the rear tire has a 140/70-17 M/C 66H section. A front disc measuring 282 millimeters and a rear disc measuring 220 millimeters provide the stopping power. The Deltabox frame is the foundation for the bike's suspension, consisting of front telescopic forks and a rear swingarm.
