Thank you so much to Yamaha Motor for reaching out with an incredibly personalized offer on a bike to review (their guy knew I love me some upright, mid level, naked bikes!) They did ask if I’d like to review the R7 - but I was honest there and said I’d be an awkward mess reviewing a bike with that seating position - check out RedSpade Racing’s Anna Rigby’s review on the R7 here kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIekp4GPqt99qMU and tell them Doodle sent you!

You're bike with it's 53 lbs of torque would have more power even at low rpm but as the rpms rise your bike with it's 120 horsepower would be like a mountain lion compared to a housecat.

Finally, a motorcycle review that has meaning and value for me. I’m 72 years old, my upper body strength isn’t what it used to be, I have short legs, and I ride like an old man because I’m an old man. I love riding a motorcycle just for the joy of riding a motorcycle. There are plenty of people reviewing motorcycles knowing their audience is a young male who demands performance. I appreciate that, my son is one of them. My son rides a BMW 1000 SS something or other and takes it to the track. I like twisty mountain or valley roads where a motorcycle is just plain fun without going fast. In that way Doodle’s review is just on target and very unique. I believe there is a very large audience for this type of work once she is discovered by more riders.

The MT-07 is by all accounts a phenomenal motorcycle. Personally though I love an inline-4 too much to ever be interested in a parallel twin, so I went for a CBR650. Next up will probably be a Z900. The dealer I bought my Honda from had a Z900 demo in hand and practically begged me to take it out for a little while. Not wanting to be rude, I spent an hour riding around Daytona, including a sprint up I-95. So yeah, I'm pretty much sold on that bike now. :)

I haven’t rode on two wheels for about 9 years since I used to putt around on my dirt bike.

I immediately did an accidental wheelie when I first started riding the FZ07. I hate the headlight on the 2021. Everything else looks like a great upgrade.

What a clear and concise bike review! I think the difference in throttle response you noticed between your Street Triple R and the Yamaha may have to do with the different model years. Your Triumph is a few years older and was probably manufactured to comply with Euro 4, or earlier. Each successive Euro standard is more stringent and manufacturers are struggling to maintain performance and feel, such as initial throttle response and smoothness at take-off, as they make design adjustments in line with the tougher standards. Having said that, there are also differences among throttle and engine mapping and it is possible Yamaha intentionally implemented a milder throttle response on the MT07 to make it more approachable for newer riders. It's weird that the older Triumphs, or some of them, did not have hazard warning lights. I think the newer ones have a separate switch for that. (I believe the European bikes at least have a "parking light" function which leaves the appropriate rear light--depending on market-- on after the ignition is turned to or past the lock position.)

MT-07 is the bike I wheelied through town during license training (not on purpose - the instructor was unimpressed). Swapped to an er6n for the actual bike license test after that for a more predictable low speed throttle. I prefer my current Trident over both in honesty - but I’m a grandad so that’s perfectly ok ;)

That spec you keep mentioning is probably ride-by-wire vs cable throttles. A physical cable moves the valves open on the motorcycle. And it does so exponentially-ish. A ride-by-wire system tries to read your inputs and compute them as a linear input. Engineering Explained has a great 3 minute video breaking this down in cars. It's called Drive By Wire. I typed all this before researching and both the MT-07 and Street Triple are cable actuated throttles. It could just be that the high points of the torque curve is available more often in the ST than the MT-07. Which does appear to be true. So the power is more available through the rev range, which is also what people say about triples. And some bikes just rev easier than others. If you're riding like a grandma, and I do this too, it'll take some bikes longer for that power to snap on because they're meant to be ridden higher in the RPMs. I believe its called "Lugging the engine"

7:26 Maybe the MT-07 has more torque higher up the rev range. Which might not be something a grandma rider would experience. I doubt you reve the bike up to the red line much. Whereas the Street Triple R is supposed to have even torque right through the rev range. There's also something called fueling that might have an effect on what you're describing.

You're genuinely my go-to hero!!! 🎶 I can't remember if I mentioned to you or someone else about the flat-footing thing. As long as I've been riding motorcycles and as many as I've owned and ridden through the years, I've never felt a need or want to flat foot on a motorcycle. I always like the tip-toe effect. I'd just feel weird if I ever got on a motorcycle and my heels touched pavement. And yes, that's really a word. I looked it up in the Doodle Dictionary I have on my desk next to me.

I am a grandpa, and would probably ride like one if I had a motorbike. This and the z650 look like good choices to get back into it. Great content, fun, and the audio was over the top- clear and crisp, good job!!

You noticing the difference in the throttle between your Triumph and the Yamaha comes down to fuel injector throttle mapping. The Yamaha does a more exact computer interpetation of your hand twisting the throttle so it seems to react slower. The Triumph is not as specific. Also, the Japanese manufacturers have to sell their bikes in Japan which is ferociously safety sensitive. It's just safer to have a throttle on a motorcycle that does not dump power into the bike extremely quickly. That Yamaha has a better throttle in it.

Drop the forks through the triple clamps and get a shorter shock. Make it yours. Don't compromise.

I just test rode a Tracer 700 (same motor) and enjoyed it so much that I got it. I really hope it will be more comfortable than the MT-07. Just I case, I ordered it with a comfort seat. My previous bike had 48 HP, but I think I can handle it.

MOVING TO GEORGIA!💜...Sorry for yelling, wanted to get your attention lol. If you ever see this I could use your advice. I'll be moving to Gainesville but often traveling to Decatur to see family. Might sell my car because of gas prices and to build a savings. Would a 300cc be enough for daily commuting/traveling? I was also considering getting the Honda rebel dct and growing into it because I have anxiety. Keep in mind I'm 5"1-5"2 with boots, very little riding experience (electric motorcycle, weighs 216lbs). What would you suggest? Also is Georgia in general a chill place to ride?..I'm coming from NY sooo😳 I'm scared lol

Seat width is important too. A wider seat will make it harder to reach the ground.

Two bikes can have the same seat hight, but that does not mean that they are both the same getting your feet on the ground. it also depends on how narrow or wide the front of the seat is. a narrow seat can easily ad another inch of leg to get your feet down.

It is possible that the "Sensitive" with the power and the torque has to do with the "throw" of the throttle. From what others has said that it takes more twisting to go from closed to full open. A shorter throw on the throttle would make it seem more sensitive. the MT-07 is like 6500 RPM while Triple is 9300 rpm. So on paper it would take more throttle to produce in the Triple

I've had my R3 for around 3 months now and put about 1000 miles on it in Western NC (Where I currently live, only 20 minutes from the Blue ridge parkway and 1 hour from TOTD). After riding a group member's MT07, I am highly considering trading in the R3. My R3 is amazing in the corners, and I am as fast or faster than everyone in our group in the corners with much bigger bikes, but the torque of the MT07 is amazing. The MT07 also seemed to turn in much easier than my R3, but that could have been an issue with my front tire cupping. It just got a new front today. Seeing that you are from/ were in Atlanta, have you been to Mountain Motorsports? They have a few MT07s that I am interested in.
