- The design of the MT-15 which is unlike any other bike in and around its segment. It also is a welcome relief from the KTM Duke’s now dated styling. Yamaha has neatly incorporated the visual elements of the MT-09 into the MT-15, like the LED-DRLs and dummy air-intakes on the sculpted tank. It also gets a flat, one-piece seat and a slender midsection that would put swimsuit models to shame.
- The MT-15’s switchgear is worth mentioning here as well courtesy the odd placement of the buttons. Yamaha has swapped the position of the turn indicator switch with the horn. It is amazing how I kept fumbling between the two even after spending a good amount of time with the motorcycle. The switches aren’t easy to reach either and feel unnatural to use.
