2019 Yamaha MT-09 has been launched in India for INR 10.55 lakh (ex-showroom). The motorcycle was first launched for INR 10.88 lakh but, got a steep reduction in price after a drop in CBU taxes. The ex-showroom price went down to INR 9.50 lakh for once and now, it is available with a couple of shades for INR 10.55 lakh. The shade named Night Fluo has been discontinued in favor of a new shade named Ice Fluo. [caption id="attachment_409442" align="aligncenter" width="2000"]

Yamaha is yet to introduce MT-10 in India, leaving 2019 MT-09 as the flagship street machine from their side. The 115 HP engine on the motorcycle is impressive enough to put rivals down in everyday riding feel. The 847cc, three-cylinder engine is good for 87.5 Nm of torque. It rivals Triumph Street Triple, Suzuki GSX-S750 and Kawasaki Z900 in India. [caption id="attachment_409443" align="aligncenter" width="2000"]
