Yamaha Motor Australia has detailed its updated MT-03, which has received a number of cosmetic and performance enhancements.
The LAMS-approved naked bike retains its rideaway price of $7299, and is available in three colours.
New for 2020 is an upside-down fork to improve handling performance, while the rear monoshock features a stiffer spring and revised preload and damper settings.
Headlining the visual upgrades is a new LED headlight signature, a sharp front cowl and slim LED blinkers.
Borrowing tricks from its larger MT siblings, the lightweight naked bike features a wide-shouldered tank cover, air scoops and a new LCD dash.
The new Yamaha MT-03 retains its 31kW/30Nm 321cc parallel-twin which is matched with a six-speed gearbox.
Braking is handled by a single 298mm disc with a dual-piston caliper at the front and a 220mm disc with a single-piston caliper at the rear.
Notably, the bike comes standard with ABS and Michelin Pilot Street tyres.
