The MT-03 was Yamaha's single-cylinder entry in the MT roadster family, built on the engine of the XT660 trail bike but retuned for street use. It paired a torquey 660 cc liquid-cooled single with an upright, supermoto-like riding position and a steel truss frame. Twin 295 mm front discs and an underseat muffler gave it a distinctive, compact look.
