The Yamaha MT-15 V2 stands out with its sharp, aggressive streetfighter styling, influenced by the MT series’ “Dark Side of Japan” design language. Its bi-functional LED projector headlamp flanked by LED DRLs, sculpted fuel tank with winglets, and minimalist tail section give it a striking road presence. Weighing just 141 kg, it’s nimble, muscular, and made for thrilling city rides.
155cc Liquid-Cooled VVA Engine for Peppy Urban Performance
At its heart lies a 155cc liquid-cooled, 4-valve engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA)—the same trusted powerplant from the Yamaha R15 V4. It produces 18.4 PS at 10,000 RPM and 14.1 Nm at 7,500 RPM, mated to a 6-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch for smoother gear transitions. The VVA ensures linear torque delivery at both low and high RPMs, making it fun in city traffic and high-speed stretches.
Precision Handling with Deltabox Frame & USD Forks
Built on a Deltabox chassis, the MT-15 V2 ensures superb stability and cornering precision. The latest version comes with gold-finished 37mm USD front forks and a link-type rear monoshock, offering improved front-end feedback and handling. It glides confidently through sharp turns, making it one of the most agile bikes in the 150cc segment.
Digital LCD Console with Bluetooth Connectivity
The bike gets a fully digital LCD instrument cluster that now supports Yamaha Y-Connect Bluetooth app, showing notifications, last parking location, fuel efficiency, maintenance alerts, and more. It also displays gear position, shift timing light, trip meters, and real-time mileage—keeping riders informed and connected on the go.
Dual-Channel ABS with Front & Rear Disc Brakes
For safety, the MT-15 V2 features 282mm front and 220mm rear disc brakes with dual-channel ABS, offering reliable braking in varied conditions. Its 140mm rear radial tyre provides excellent grip and adds to its bold stance and cornering ability.

The Yamaha MT-15 V2 is priced at ₹1.68 lakh (ex-showroom) and is available in stylish shades like Metallic Black DLX, Ice Fluo-Vermillion, Racing Blue, and Dark Matte Blue. It appeals especially to young, performance-driven urban riders.
Conclusion: The Yamaha MT-15 V2 is a standout street-naked bike with eye-catching design, performance-tuned VVA engine, Deltabox handling, and tech-loaded features.
