Yamaha has always been synonymous with motorsports. The motorcycle maker already has a strong racing DNA in international motorsports. Now with the launch of Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Edition, Yamaha proves its commitment to offering a model range that showcases this proud lineage.
The MT-15 V2.0 is a street motorcycle from Yamaha that looks quite radical in design. Now with the Monster Energy livery, the motorcycle looks even more intimidating.

Suspension duty is taken care of by 37mm upside-down front forks and a preload-adjustable mono-shock at the rear.
Key features include a fully-digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity (Y-connect). Thus, users get updates like phone calls/SMS/email alerts, phone battery status, malfunction notifications, and last parked location.
