Yamaha MT-09 | Best Prices & Test Rides

889cc CP3 engine

Engine capacity is enlarged to 889cc by increasing the bore size by 3mm, and the extra 42cc boosts maximum horsepower by 4PS to 119PS at 10,000rpm. However, the most significant improvement is the increased torque output.

Die-cast aluminium Deltabox

Larger twin beams that run directly from the steering head assembly through to the swingarm pivot to give optimal strength, the newly-designed aluminium frame, subframe and swingarm are 2.3kg lighter than the previous chassis, making a significant contribution towards the increased agility.

6-axis IMU

The new MT-09 is the first Yamaha Hyper Naked model to be equipped with a high-tech 6-axis IMU, one of the most sophisticated pieces of electronics in the industry.

New intake and exhaust systems

Newly designed stainless steel header pipes each have a different curvature to create an excellent pulse effect, and with tailpipes exiting on both the left and right sides, the rider feels the intoxicating roar in full stereo mode.

LED projector lighting

The full LED headlight assembly features a single central bifunctional projector headlight with multiple LEDs that provide a broad, even, and powerful beam with soft edges for both low and high beam settings.

10-spoke Spin Forged wheels

Yamaha’s exclusive spin forging technology involves the cast wheels being heated up and spun at high speed while pressure is applied to the rims to reduce their thickness to just 2mm while retaining their immense strength.

Full colour TFT instruments

The new 3.5-inch TFT full colour display shows clear and precise data. Its lightweight construction and mid-sized layout have been chosen to blend seamlessly with the new LED headlight assembly and maintain the compact and agile feeling from the rider’s viewpoint.

Quick Shift System

For ultimate acceleration, the MT-09 gets a Quick Shift System (QSS) that ensures seamless and clutchless full-throttle upshifts and smooth downshifts.

Traction Control System

The TCS has three switchable modes, and each mode integrates three of the rider support systems, meaning that the intervention levels are all changed at once in Modes 1 and 2.
