Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Yamaha MT-03
- Engine performance is flexible enough to allow for slow city commutes and fast highway rides
- Great handling - feels light, changes direction quickly and feels stable when leaned too
- Design - the LED headlight looks aggressive and the MT-03 has that overall feel of a sporty and compact streetfighter
Aprilia RS 457
- Looks - looks sporty, aggressive and premium. Good build quality and sharp design mean it attracts a lot of attention
- Engine - lots of torque throughout the rev range makes commuting very easy. Quick overtakes even in a gear higher are effortless
- Tyres - the TVS Eurogrip Protorq Extreme tyres are fantastic both in dry and wet conditions, no complaints there
- Features - the TFT console is user-friendly and offers a lot of useful information
- Price - at Rs 4.10 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), it is the mo

Yamaha MT-03
- Cramped seat - no space for taller or larger riders to move around
- Firm suspension - suspension kicks back when ridden over really bad roads and even the slightly bad roads aren’t absorbed all that well
- Lack of features - ABS and a basic fully-digital console is all that it has. Misses out on a slip-and-assist clutch, quickshifter, traction control and even Bluetooth connectivity - things that its competition have
- Extremely expensive price tag
Aprilia RS 457
- Riding posture - the clip-on handlebar is low-set and on the committed side, not the best for everyday commuting
- Firm rear suspension - the RS 457’s monoshock is on the firmer side and lighter riders will be tossed around a bit when going through potholes and sharp speed breakers
- Reliability - the RS 457 is coming out of a factory that’s never made a bike before so its reliability and how Aprilia handles its after-sales service is yet to be seen

The Raging Beast
It is a great bike. The pickup and power delivery is amazing. I love this bike. Yamaha have done a great job Yamaha. The top speed goes beyond 160 for me being a big guy. But the exhaust notes on this with an after-market exhaust is 💕. I love this bike. The price is worth the thrill this gives. I give it a 10/10.

Aprilia RS 457 Ownership Review
It is the best choice for a budget super sport bike and looks aggressive with a lot of torque and power. The twin cylinder engine is very tractable and the overall ride experience is fun! Definitely a head turner. The bike is very smooth and the engine is very responsive. The posture is a bit demanding so would avoid in traffic jams and long rides. The power is just amazing, a twist of the throttle and before you know it you are reaching triple digit speeds. This is a pure red bike and would only suggest it to those who are genuinely in need of the power upgrade and will ride the bike the way it is meant to. For beginners and clout chasers would definitely recommend to stay away from this bike.
