2017 Yamaha MT10 SP Review

2017 Yamaha MT10 SP Review : In this video I review the quite simply brutal Yamaha MT10 SP, this takes the already awesome naked MT10 and adds Ohlins semi active suspension, a full colour TFT screen and a fancy paint job to name but a few....(in the US this bike is of course known as the FZ-10 SP)...

I just bought a brand new standard MT10 today. I must have watched this video 50 times. I can’t wait to pick it up.

[@dale-fi1fi]

enjoying it?

[@stephenhadley2490]

Yes it’s a blast. Smooth engine and useable grunt. Chews the juice a bit. Cruise control is a bonus. Comfortable tourer.

[@greygoose4x46]

stephen hadley I traded in a Harley fat bob 3 years ago for a fz10 (2017 MT in US) and it tours better than the Harley ever did. Absolutely amazing machine / rides two-up for a few hours comfortably and just goes when you want

[@reddpill]

@@stephenhadley2490 How many KMs to a tank?

[@stephenhadley2490]

reddpill 220km around town and weekend riding. Nearly 300km on the highway at legal speeds.

[@alisleiman8426]

Coming back to this video after three years to say i simply love my MT10SP. I bought after your review.

[@avramm9695]

I think your unit had a comfort seat installed, that was the reason you couldn't flat foot the actual thing. Lovely review, helped me a lot.

[@rsvrider]

yep, comfort seat has white stitching 👍🏻

[@Chriscase34]

I've just bought an MT10 SP, but I've not picked it up yet. Your mini-review here has been bittersweet......I'm so glad you love the bike and have rated it highly, but it's made the wait for mine that little bit more agonising than it was before watching!! Love your videos, keep up the good work, and have lots of happy (and safe) riding!!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Don't agonise Chris you made a great choice, superb bike - congratulations and enjoy....

[@VinayKumar-db4qz]

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Glad you like 'em - stay tuned for more soon!

[@Dobbo2958]

One of the best reviews you've ever done. I have the 850 Tracer but this one seems to offer a new level. When you carry out a review like this to concentrate you seem to be travelling slower than usual. This one however gives the impression of a very high rate of knots. Thanks again.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

This is a bike that I can't imagine anyone riding slowly, it's a beast of a bike.....brilliant machine.

[@majidalborz8993]

Another thoroughly enjoyable review. Well done and thank you. Must say don't recall seeing you push a bike to these kinds of speeds, didn't think you were interested in going higher than any speed limits. Yours faithfully: One of the kids!!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Hehe, glad you enjoyed it...and one of the reasons I don't have a super powerful bike (well nothing over 150bhp anyway) is because I can't trust myself to behave! These bikes are simply brilliant, but not sure my licence would stay clean for long. Thanks for watching -TMF

[@RichardASK]

I have now had my MT10 for nearly 5 years and I still can't find a bike, that I would want to replace it with and I have ridden lots of others. I am still utterly besotted by this bike. Great review Andy, which has stood the test of time (5 years) very well.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks for that Richard - and agreed, still a great machine!

[@1972FordFairlane]

Another amazing genuine review. Love your vids TMF keep making them.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you Alex....will do...

[@stuartcaddick5696]

I've watched and enjoyed every review you've done, excellent and informative work. The MT10 SP is the only bike that has genuinely excited you. I test rode one and I realised why.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I wouldn’t say it was the only bike - the Panigale V4, the Honda Goldwing, the Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor, Aprilia Tuono....all did a good job too!

Great review - that bike really "hauls the mail" - super-fast!

[@thejohnnerparty]

Nicely done 1st impression. You make it sound very attractive. .... I don't know what is going on in the UK, but it seems like most of the reviews for cars and motorcycles are coming from your side of the pond. Whatever the reason, hope you guys keep up the good work. ;-)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Really? Wonder why that is....anyway, I shall keep it up as long as you keep watching! All the best - TMF

[@djwarren5081]

Another top quality video by TheMissendenFlyer. I've not ridden the SP version, but thought the MT10 was a great bike.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes it is a great bike, I'd like a go on the standard machine by way of comparison but don't think it's likely to be lacking much....

[@05subisti]

I already want one of these like crazy but if they release this version over here in the states I think I would be sold!! Beautiful machine and love that it has an upright seating position. Great review and thank you!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

You're very welcome- thanks for watching - TMF

[@barryroberts2474]

I've been waiting for you to ride the 10. I have an "ordinary" MT10 and it is by far the best thing I have ever bought. I will be 68 next month and when riding this bike I'm a teenager again. Hopefully with a little more self control. I envy you the British roads as i live in Western Australia and the road surfaces require some consideration. Te "lost for words" syndrome doesn't go away with time. Cruise control is a great asset.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Barry, what a brilliant machine....ride safe!

[@keithholmes4931]

wow what a beast of a bike ..love your reviews Mr F you are riding some top bikes at the moment😊

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you Keith, and I am indeed, its a lot of fun! (much better than work that's for sure!).....

[@RichardASK]

I took a standard MT10 out for a an hour or so ride a few weeks ago and was completely captivated by THAT sound! It's fabulous and I now know why the fuel consumption is so poor. All you want to do is to keep bollocking this bike. As this was a dealer's demonstrator(thanks Skellerns of Worcester), I left the suspension set up as it was, but I found the front suspension needed softening a little on the spring rate as there wasn't such a good feel under heavy braking on the somewhat rough back roads of Herefordshire. After an hour and a quarter, I also now know why they have offered a 'comfort seat', as an option. It is needed. I have decided, that come spring, I will buy one, but I will probably go for the touring model, because not only do you get the comfort seat, you also get the small screen and panniers. This bikes handles pretty well(once set up to suit) and that bonkers engine!

[@bigdaddy1400]

Brilliant review, thank you. I'm looking at the MT10 Touring 👌

[@dale-fi1fi]

[@onyerbike4713]

Love the review. Cracking bike. Might be my next bike acquisition 🤔 FYI, at approx 15:45 you mentioned that it opens up into 2 carriageways - 2 lanes yes, but only a single carriageway 😉

[@jonnybegood4848]

Regarding gas mileage, I'm averaging about 28.5 (US) since I bought the Mt-10 just after seeing this review. -That should be an answer for some and, that's not with me tearing around very often - just everyday driving. I've had two Tuono's and can say the range is about the same but mpg may be a bit less because I believe this tank is larger. Would you want to sport tour on this bike with that gas mileage? It certainly has the comfort of my last bike, the SuperDuke 1290 but, that puppy had 2/3rd better gas mileage. The seat is firm but I like it for daily use. Even though it has so much power, I am not "grinding my teeth" in frustration around town like I was on the SD. This is silky smooth and lighter to maneuver. I especially like to change down the power mode in the thick of traffic. It works perfectly there, allowing a progressive "roll on" at the throttle. That's nice too when you want to enjoy the scenery. Some days it just stays in three (rain?) but big fun is just a mode switch away instead of a different bike away. -Jonnyallover

[@MegaMaxymoo]

Great review...I had an MT09 last year and wish i had kept hold of it, now on a fireblade but the smile factor doesn't compare with the yamaha....The MT10 SP has really got my interest, especially after your input...Thanks Mr flyer :-)

Had a test ride on a Std MT10, bought the SP, arrives next week, bit gutted my new SpeedyR doesn't do it for me, I've had four Speedys over the years but the new version isn't that much quicker than my 2005 1050, Beautifully screwed together though! I don't think I'll miss it as we have a Street triple RX as well and I positively love that bike. Thanks for your detailed reviews mate, now it's time to enjoy the coming New Zealand summer 👍

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Take it easy Phil - that SP is a brute! ....I think it's my favourite of the big nakeds....

Don't worry, it'll fill them admirably!

[@moiramciver2481]

Tried the MT10 yesterday and absolutely loved it, interestingly my last bike was a V Strom, and the seating position is very similar, the power is much different, raw power in every gear with the 10, but like a pussycat in traffic, and a delight in town or busy traffic, i love the look of the MT's but always feel the naked bikes need a bellypan for the aesthetics.

[@TeslasSecret]

Interesting comment here. Would you think that it could satisfy a calm, not very sporty rider? I know it'd be idiotic to buy one precisely because I'm not a sporty rider, but there's something about it...

[@philliprobertlawman2232]

Great detailed review as usual, now I'm thinking about trading my Speedy!!!!!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

....I must admit, I love a Trumpet, but the MT-10SP is a step up from the Speedie!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thank you very much!

[@kpk500]

Great review sir, I completely agree with all your comments, I've owned one these great machines since early March and covered 2500 miles so far. Didn't hear you mention the cruise control, helps me keep to the speed limits on the motorways. Another comment mentions fuel consumption, since hitting 2k miles I'm getting 45 mpg.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes my error, i should have mentioned the cruise control, great addition....I also liked the proper switch gear rather than those flimsy PCB ones you seem to get a lot of these days.....

[@kpk500]

Yes, for my bike when brand new the fuel mileage was in the 30's (UK gallons) but now much better. Using a GPS to measure distance & the pump at the service station to measure fuel quantity. However, I didn't buy the SP for its fuel economy.

[@jamsxr]

Tom Slak I think the poor fuel economy might have something to do with MotoGP derived, crossplain, ultra high performance engine. Having 183% of your HP with 71% of your fuel economy seems like progress to me. Stick with your 1983 FJ750MT if it's mpg you're after 😜

[@jamsxr]

AussiRider edited my previous response for your benefit. What bikes are these you speak of?

[@jamsxr]

AussiRider my Tuono 1100 goes between 25 and 35 depending on riding conditions.... Not sure where your getting your figures from. If your moaning about a 2/5 mpg extra on a 160 bhp bike, you've bought the wrong bike. Also, SuperDuke and BMW riders are getting between 35 and 40 mpg, you've already said you're getting 45...

[@alf786]

brutal machine really awesome lucky you on the SP .. i believe you would be happy on the standard just as good. would of course love the ohlins and colour screen but not always needed.. one the reaction you love it when that power and the sound of the engine you instantly fall in love!! haha wicked bike the other thing with this bike easy to loose your licence !! too easy to bomb it!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

+alf786 Yes I agree with that 100%....and would love a go on a standard machine for comparison purposes (I also like the grey/Fluoro colour scheme on the standard bike)....

I am really impressed with the Yamaha offerings and now have the MT10 and the VMAX Gen 2. Both are very impressive machines which I can see myself hanging onto for a long time....for me that is a huge statement. Cheers and great review!

[@chrisvantassel8867]

J. Rockett Audio Designs if I had to make the choice it would be the MT10, handles better, can tour on it and is simply easier. The Max is a niche bike and awesome but I would consider it a second bike. MT10 is as good as it gets for an all arounder

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I’d probably go for the MT10....but its marginal!

Great video as always! I have watched most of your videos, but I never left any comments though.....But this time I have to say go with MT10 SP, because I had the similar situation like you, between Tuono V4 1100 Factory and MT10 SP. At the end 10 is my final choice. I got her 1 week ago, and she is absolutely a fantastic machine. Superduke is a lovely bike, but I just can't stand the vibration above 7k. Hope you will pick up your bike soon.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I'm not in the market for one ChairmanBaao, but it is fun riding all these great machines and comparing them - I'm with you, the MT10SP is the best naked I've ridden so far (just my opinion of course)...thanks for watching and breaking your silence at last! - TMF

[@cytorrak]

Have to agree, amazing bike; picked mine up a few weeks ago. Absolutely love it.

[@wayneshephard]

Would you pick this over the Triumph Speed Triple RS?

[@tancakar8987]

amazing review as usual, thank you for this review, its really clears my mind about this bike, as you know i have a Ktm super duke 1290 Gt, probably will PX it to this lovely bike. One question though, how was it compare to Ktm superduke GT? obviously its a 4 cylinder and ktm is V2 :) Just asking the quality of finish , comfort, ease of use ETC. One thing was very interesting while you about to stop near the pub i can really hear the bike ticking over like a V4 or V2 that crossplank really got alot of character even sounds like it has. good review sir ;)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Thanks Tan - Yes loved the character of this bike, it was a few weeks ago since I rode the Superduke so I would need another go to be sure, but I think for me the MT-10SP was more of a thrill ride whilst still retaining excellent road manners and ease of use - it's a close call though....

[@tancakar8987]

i forgot to ask how was the fueling , on / off throttle ? is it similar to Ktm which is superb or ratty ? Thank you !

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Seemed spot on to me!

[@paulsykes1339]

Finally getting around to test riding one tomorrow. I like the styling, it works in a way the new CB1000R just doesn't for example. The front brake does seem to come in for some criticism but for me only question marks are seat comfort (i suspect I'll go straight for the 'comfort seat', though i think this is just a money making wheeze) and fuel consumption / range. The killer though is that engine noise and i think it is that, above almost everything else, that has people hooked.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yeah, it certainly works for me, as does its smooothness

[@RRacingMTSP]

It’s a great bike, if anyone is considering buying one get the taller screen, comfort seat and some Diablo corsa Rosso III 😉

Ive revisited this review as i have an opportunity to buy a new MT10SP and seeing this excellent review has been helpful. The problem is i already own a standard MT10, so is it worth upgrading? Looking back i don’t think I’ve seen you ride so fast on any other reviews!😉 I don’t really want anything other than Yamaha either as in my opinion they make the best engines. Decisions Decisions 🤔

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I've not ridden the standard bike but my gut feel is that I wouldn't have noticed any difference....

[@johnratcliffe4105]

Great review Andy. Picture clarity a bit iffy at times, couldn't see your dash very well half the time..😉

Great upload. Never liked the looks but the SP finish just seems to take it up a level, I actually think this looks good. Shame it does not have the M50's. All of the current crop of super naked bikes (KTM, Aprilia, BMW and Yamaha) are confident inspiring in my opinion, and seem to win every rider over. I'm not sure if they are that rewarding to ride as they make it all so easy, but who cares when they're that much fun. If it was that good, surely with a stable of your caliber, you would make room ;) Maybe try the Aprilia first, for me and many others it's the winner and undoubtedly the best performing - shame they are overlooked by most consumers for the big brands.

+Jim 86 Yes I'd love to make room Jim, sadly since I retired last year my finances don't allow me to buy bikes like I used to be able too....maybe one day, or if the wife forces me back to work :0)

[@kyotosal]

Very cool Sir. Would love to have one. Thank you.........Sal : )

[@shaneweightman]

I just watched a review on a new zero electric motor bike and the torque that makes is eye watering,, just a shame they are so expensive thanks Shane

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yeah, I'd love to have a go on one of those, I bet they're wild....

[@user-fi4id6hv7j]

Awesome review !! I just love this bike . I have a question for you, can I use this mt as a tourer ( comfort seat, windscreen) + with my girl or should I go for the new tracer 9 gt? I own a cb650r for now , I love naked bikes that's why I thinking about this mt instead of the new tracer 🤔 what's your opinion ? Just something more , I'm 26 years old ,I ride almost 5 years so I'm not so experienced rider, should I afraid to go for the mt ? Thank in advance

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

I think you'll prefer the MT10.....

[@dougie1325]

BTW TMF I watched a recent review from Smo and he uses a polariser lens on his GoPro, which stops the dash from being visible.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

How interesting....will check that out - thanks.

[@CJ3B1]

Awesome machine the SP & no 'White Vans' either😝

[@stevelampard]

I'm not entirely keen on the looks of it but having ridden one a couple of months ago, I quickly forgot them tbh. It's just a beast of a bike where you can open it up but I found it quite civilised round town and handled like my street triple on the twisties.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yeah, as you could tell - I loved it!

[@gspiggity]

Nice vid, also nice of the shop to loan you the bike! How do you compare it to the trumpie as you are quite a fan of those?

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Compares very well...I possibly prefer it.....

[@gspiggity]

TheMissendenFlyer might consider upgrading to it if I ever get bored of my current ride, great review

[@jamiefetter5251]

Nice review.random question what trousers are they you have on cheers

[@boomerhgt]

The wrong trousers

[@threethrushes]

Good review. I'm sure there will be a market for this but I'm still negotiating the power of the 847cc Yamaha engine before I can consider a bigger bike. Not for me at the moment, and you'd have to take the XSR out of my cold, dead hands. :)

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yeah Yamaha are certainly building some amazing machines at the moment....thanks for the kind comments - TMF
