My bike history goes sv650 to sv650 to sv1000 to sv650 to MT-03 Anybody owned one? Just put a deposit on a Yamaha MT-03. What should i expect? Seems quite a rare bike compared to the sv650 and i cant find much info on them It like this but in green, 2006, 4000 miles, new tyres, and cost me £1700:) http://www.ukbike.com/images/cc/1804/car_id_228_1.jpg |

Duffis must be struggling if he is selling an 06 mt-03 for £1700
would you like me to go and have a look at it for you... lol |

I know it's no help but I love that bike & was what I actually wanted before getting the SV. Sounds like a bit of a bargain!

I think barwel1992 on here started out on a MT-03?

I've ridden one a few times, it's alright, a bit lacking in outright power in comparison to an SV and not as the looks would suggest a supermoto of any kind, but they make a decent enough commuter bike and OK for a bit of fun on the back roads, slightly heavier than they look to I thought, easy enough to service though, comparatively rare bike though so if that's your thing It'll fit the bill.
Cheers Mark. |

Hi, thanks for the advice and replies so far. Did not thing i would get too many as it does seem quite a rare bike. With regards to the actual bike, Its got the Remus Cans on anyway and they are loud with the baffles in, Its got a tail tidy and a very small screen that are parts that i believe are not standard. Just hope its not going to be a disappointment compared to my sv.

I've put a few miles on one but I'd rather have an SV over an MT-03 any day of the week.
Positives Handles really well Negatives Lacking in power, dash is plasticy, known issue with the revcounter and water ingress, I seem to remember that 90mph is flat out and they dont hold their residuals well. Look at an ER6 if all you are after is the funky styling. |
Re: sv650 to sv650 to sv1000 to sv650 to MT-03 Anybody owned one?
Ok, cool, was just after the looks and something to commute and a bit of fun really. Any idea how good they are on fuel? Better or worse than the sv650?

I wasn't watching the fuel but I can ask my mates missus tomorrow who's bike it was.
I just used to ride it when we used the swap bikes for a bit of variety on ride outs Wheelies quite well though :) but so does the SV Deffo watch out for that water ingress of 5 people I know who have had MT-03's all 5 had their clocks changed under warranty with this problem. |
