REVIEW Yamaha MT-09 2024 testride - Did Yamaha do everything right?

[@MrEunuch]

Great review and thanks for posting an English version. You covered all the main points better than any of the other English reviews I've seen in the last week and crucially answered the SP vs. non-SP question that always comes up (could say the same for RS vs. R on the Street Triple) that we need clear statements on. I was going to wait until the SP was released in the UK before arranging a test ride, but you've convinced me to try the standard model earlier. For info, this is a potential replacement for a 2011 675 Street Triple R I've owned from new. I'm taking away some of the obvious excitement you have for th ebike over to a planned test ride 👍👍👍

[@paintsplatta99]

Excellent review, and your conclusion is spot on. Personal preference aside, this is objectively the best value option for the naked middleweight class - by far. You get the CP3 engine, the R1 electronics package, name-brand suspension and a Brembo master cylinder for $10.6k. None of the Japanese competitors offer anything close to this same spec and all the Euro options that do will cost $2k more, at minimum.

A greeting from South Korea. Excellent review. Very informative. Cheers

[@ryanav8]

Amazing review, the best I’ve seen so far. Thanks.

[@erikleeblake]

What about better for comfort for taller riders? Seems like they sacrificed riding position to join the likes of the Street Triple, Tuono 660, etc.

[@paulantonio740]

The best review yet of the 2024 model. Excellent use of English for those of use who don't speak German. Now if I can only come to terms with that front fascia...

[@Sean-yt1jn]

Excellent video. I was really sold on a 24 MT-07 in spite of its persistent flaws but now I really want an 09

[@madsoothsayer]

Excellent review!

[@onemanmob6756]

Thanks for the review - I'm shocked no other major YT channel has released a review of this bike yet - they usually all come out on the same day - does it mean you perhaps release yours before the embargo date 🤔😉?

[@danlford]

My god those roads look like heaven. also the turn signals are self cancelling

[@SirMountainpass]

Best in-class value proposition on the market, made in Japan! The new SP to replace my gen2 2020 SP 😃🔥💯🏁

[@jimmylau6388]

How's the vibration at the handlebar at various RPM? I rode an older MT that had high frequency buzzy vibration.

[@Eastcoast_Rds]

Very informative review

[@richardkostarz5783]

What about the 3rd gen quickshifter?

[@veljkovic92]

Very informative review. Sehr gut gemacht! For the first time ever I'm seriously considering 09, because as you, I never liked the front end instability of the prev models.

[@michaelsloane1034]

Right I am 6.1 and the 2023 I sat on it and I thought the riding position and seating position I thought was absolutely perfect it was extremely comfortable I thought about purchasing but wanted to wait for 2024 cause they improved the screen size and now from this guy's review he says they completely have changed riding and sitting position wow this is extremely disappointing to me now i don't think I would like the bike so I went and bought a 2024 kawasaki ninja 1000sx picking it up next month so now I think I will wait on this bike I was gonna order one but I will wait to until I can sit on one but if they changed it like he said I am not sure I will like it my only complaint will the 1000sx is the peg are slightly on the high side but not a deal breaker but it is fairly comfy maybe the MT10 might be better will check that out also

[@archibaldikowski3646]

I'm so hyped!

[@MalShakur]

Sounds like the SP will just be for bragging rights this time around, especially for a bike that will be strictly ridden on the street. Great review.

[@fchanMSI]

I have the 2021 MT-09 so I want to ride it to see the difference between 2024.

[@didaddy]

Excellent review. Will you be reviewing the XSR 900 GP

[@1000pscom]

Thank you. Sure! We will be testing it next week.

[@didaddy]

Excellent. Really looking forward to seeing it

[@ilusv]

So Yamaha turned their bike into a street triple, I like my Gen 2 because it’s comfortable and not as aggressive in the seating department

[@endriolima5685]

I wanted an mt 07, but everyone talks about the bad suspension. So the mt 09 could e a valid option, I want a exciting bike but not with sporty ergos. I will try to get my hands on a second gen

[@frenchtoast-d7u]

⁠@@endriolima5685 Get a third gen. Still upright, but better handling than the second gen.

[@ilusv]

@@endriolima5685The only downside to the 2nd Gen is the on/off feel of the throttle. If you're ok with that, you're good to go. I've owned that bike since 2018.

[@chriswest2290]

Yes. They improve and progress the bike.

[@claywalker8401]

Awesome bike.

[@chriswest2290]

Very awesome bike. Alot cheaper in the USA.

[@evenkvetangen]

18 000 here in norway

[@ricardusdanisworo3086]

When imported into Indonesia, became 3x price.. pfft Heavy on Luxury tax

[@arturogarcia-oi4zc]

Seems someone left and forgot his LAP TOP in the handle bars. The screen is too big. Do you look at the data in the screen when riding at 180 KPH? It's a wind resistance screen, not an aero dynamic one.

[@aplest1785]

Suppliers never put really good tyre on bikes lol. They will be a standard tyre that you will need to replace.

[@claywalker8401]

What is involved in buying a new MT09?

[@contacthigh8571]

Money

[@kotomakosako]

Everything's great except the pegs position. I don't know why they changed that, but surely it made it more uncomfortable to ride.

[@michaelsloane1034]

The pegs position looks terribly uncomfortable

[@DEGMOTOV]

They cannot get it right on the headlight design. I dont agree, it looks worse than before. The other upgrades do look great!

[@ilusv]

You’re right, couldn’t agree more.

[@playtech269]

Euro 5

[@gordonkyle8520]

oh no - a 14 ltr tank, what a waste of a restyle

[@539power6]

せっかくのハイメカニズムが、このプロポーションと顔で 台無しだよ。

[@Szlejer]

The wheel colors and the headlight is a crime against humanity... The design is getting super bad ever since the first 2 genserations.

[@cryptoknight3009]

I agree, the previous gen headlight already got a lot of hate an now this 😂😂

[@KalNation]

Settle down little girl

[@quanwick4516]

What a Karen! This is the best gen yet 👌

[@devilmaycry383]

Best looking since gen 1&2 waiting for the SP.

[@jeffsmithvideos]

Welcome to the future old man 😂

[@jagadeeshkumar516]

Ugliest bike I ever seen I thought the first generation was ugly nope

[@chriswest2290]

Was you buying one ?

[@jotgrewal4390]

​@chriswest2290 no just typical Indian with an opinion with nothing to back it.
