**********************************
Hey guys! In this week's video I test a friend's 2006 Yamaha MT-03. It is a 659CC single cylinder beast! The Yamaha MT-03 shares its engine with the Yamaha XT lineup as well as the Yamaha Raptor 660 Quad! You can compare it to a Yamaha MT-07 with a supermoto engine. It was my first time on a big thumper and I absolutely loved it! It feels unlike any other bike I've ever ridden!

I love it so much. I got my MT 03 660 5 months ago and It's so much fun. It's awesome because nobody knows this bike I get asked so frequently. I love the torque and the insane backfires. Just try giving it some gas up to like 4-5k rpm and then give it a quick yank at the throttle after it will backfire soo loud when the exhaust is hot. I love it so much.

I owned a 2010 mt03 and kept for a solid 10 years. I must say that it was one of the best bikes I had! 10 years with literally no problems AT ALL and run like the first day! Great engine great bike! I Regret for selling it.

@@devisnasir3902 It's good for short distances - say like 2 hour rideouts on twisty roads (avoid highways), but I suggest go for something else if you're looking for touring. My gf says its comfortable, but it doesn't have wind protection and is not meant for long distances since it's a single cylinder bike. Maybe try a tracer 700? They look cool, have a fun engine from mt07 and can handle two-up and touring

@@180FiftyFive Hi Christian, I'm getting my A2 license and was looking at a Yamaha mt-03, since you have had one before, how comes you suggest to avoid highways what's wrong with going on highways with this bike?

@180FiftyFive 4 жыл бұрын

@@MrSarro99 If you are going to spend a lot of time on highway it's better to get a multi-cylinder bike. It's okay to go on highways, I mean if you commute daily on highway speeds better to try a twin instead. Less vibrations plus single cylinder engines are not really made for long distance. I have a Ninja 300 which is perfect for long trips - look also at the R3 or Ninja 400. Going 100km on highway is going to be noisy, and not pleasant if it's raining and windy and a bit chilly
