It's only available in England, unfortunatly.

The MT-03 was born for the kind of 21st century roads where bigger high-performance bikes struggle to unleash their full potential. MT-03 has instant, pulsing low-down power from its fuel-injected 660 cc single-cylinder engine and a totally new sports chassis concept engineered for hardcore street sports riding.
You get a short wheelbase, low seat height, focused centre of gravity and forward-biased riding position for hyper-manoeuvrability, superb rider feedback and excellent traction. So MT-03 is perfect for extreme riding, doesn’t matter whether you’re doing it on urban streets or mountainside hairpins. And with side-mounted rear shock, aluminium swingarm and twin underseat pipes, the MT-03 looks as trick as it rides.

its a supermoto. which in brittish terms, is basically a motorcross bike made for the street. it only tops out at 90 mph, but it has lots of torgue with the big one cylinder. 660cc. ts suppost to be a kick to drive at slow speeds. great excelleration. damn, I want one. wish I wasn't broke and also Yam would see the light and bring them over here.

oh man I love triumph's 05 speedtriple. it better look'n than the Mt-03. lot faster too. but, its build quality isn't as good as yams. ____ty brakes and wishy washy trans. also I've never riden before and the mt-03 is more of a learner's bike. I was think'n that if I ever start to make some money, get a learner bike and do well enuff I'd buy a speedtriple. really really cool bike.

I just looked at this thread and saw that last thread and, no lie, the thought that went through my head was, "I'm gonna sell the xB and get that!" I'm all talk though.
