[@ItzLobbyBobby]

Bought this about 3 weeks ago as my first bike after taking the MSF. About to hit 600 miles and take it in for the first service and I absolutely adore it so much. I really don't think I could have picked a better first bike for me. If you guys are on the fence about getting this as your first bike, I say absolutely go for it new or used. Yes, it is pretty powerful for a beginner but as long as you practice self-control, it's not so fast that you are going to squid missile yourself into a tree the second you leave the dealership lol

[@krisvenema]

"Squid Missile" is solid gold.

[@anthonygreen440]

Man similar experience. I took the MSF and when the paperwork was final and I sat on this thing for the first time driving it off the lot it was so much fun but absolutely terrifying. Finally got it home and ripped through 2300 miles in 3 weeks. Not looking back and thinking about selling my truck lol. Just need rain gear.

[@BmxDieseldude]

I think the mt07 is the perfect blend of budget, hooliganism, and daily rider worthiness.

[@mindspinn311]

Don’t forget style, value, comfort, economy, quality and reliability. It has it all, minus a too soft suspension, but at least they improved that a bit.

Since that I have owned Ktm 690 duke, Ktm 640 LC4, honda grom, honda cb1000r, 2016 Yamaha Mt07. I own now a 2021 Mt07. Absolutely the best bike I have ever owned. It is so much fun. It is a wheelie machine. Love it så MUCH

[@mindspinn311]

I’m 34, haven owned even more bikes, all pretty different, including a 2015 FZ-07. I want the new one. It’s the best in class by far and in many ways better than more expensive bikes. I have an SV650 now and some things about it are better than the MT-07, but it’s less comfortable and not as fun. Hoping to get a 2021 soon.

Dank Nooner bro! I love how excited you get immediately after that first wheelie!!

[@ButBigger42]

I've had 10 motorcycles. I just got a 2021 mt07 and it is pretty fantastic. Enough power to be fun but not so much that it's straight to prison. I think after I get an exhaust and tune it will be perfect.

[@theyweredeadwhenigotthere1391]

Its not straight to prison if you jist keep going lol and if anything does happen get a lawyer and you wont see a day in prison. County jail for a few hours at most lol then no points no jail or prison time just community service

[@Sorarse]

I've had fast sportsbikes and for 99% of the riding I have done on them, it hasn't been at high speeds. For anyone who thinks they need a big bike to go fast needs to look realistically of the sort of roads they ride on, and the amount of traffic they have to negotiate, to realise that to have fun on a bike you don't need to be gojng fast. I'm getting on in years now, and I am not sure I I will have another bike (unless I take the trouble to put my Jota back together) but this MT07 would definitely be at the top of the list if I was in the market.

OC: Definitely like a bike that'll wheelie with ease. I already ride like a hooligan on my Daytona. Having done a test ride of the new MT07 when my gf got her MT03. I like the bike. Naked bikes aren't really my thing, I'll always want a sportbike over a naked. But it is tempting to pick up. Which is why I really want to test ride the R7 and see how that one handles.

I’m pretty sure I’ve watched every first ride. And not a single bike has been more appealing to me than the MT-07 or MT-09. Imagine an MT-07 with cruise control and lift control.

This review sold me on a 21’ MT07 . Great bike

[@paradox206]

OC: I’m weird. I have two supermotos and have never wheelied either of them. I get my high by carving it up on them. To each their own though!

[@myyusauce]

I currently have a MT07 and i’ve wheelied many times just by accident 🤣 first gear is wild at times

[@S1kTh66]

Chase, you should order different color visors to match your test rides. The blue Ruroc visor would be fire with this bike.

[@chandlerbauer8926]

I just got a Storm Fluo color scheme I pick it up in a few days I always buy used so I’m a little nervous that I financed one but I just am in love with the look and I’ve owned many bikes and I’ve always leaned towards twins for my riding style of around town and for fun not long hauls or for my main transportation

[@MatthewMcFly]

First bike I bought is a Fz-07 and I love it. Would love to ride a new one.

[@chazlyle41]

I always tell the prospective new riders around me that what makes a motorcycle more fun than a car, very generally speaking, isn’t just sitting on it in a straight line, but the changing of directions and speed. Movement. As I test ride bikes for me after 15 years of riding I’m asking myself what would be most fun in the scenarios I use it for, but fun usually doesn’t involve just sitting there at a constant speed in a straight line . . .

Just went from an '18 Ninja 400 I bought new in May of 2018 as my first bike. To getting a '21 Z900 last Thursday. Thing is so enjoyable to ride, I can confidently carve through some corners, or I can go pretty quick in a straight line.

[@spadac4543]

I had a 2014 FZ-07 for a few years and it was one of my all time favorite bikes even with 10 years riding experience too and owning a triumph street triple, Aprilia Tuono, Buell XB-12ss and a lot more. It's so much fun to ride it's ridiculous. The suspension is the only thing I found lacking but I found if you drop the forks in the triple clamp a bit it improves the turn in significantly and it's free. Doesn't affect the stability too much.

[@markmiwurds2865]

Put my down payment back in March… still waiting on delivery of my raven black MT-07. I’m pissed I’ve had to wait this long but it’ll be worth it. C’mon Yamaha, make your deliveries to Virginia Beach already!!! 🤣 UPDATE: Finally, my beautiful matte black 2021 MT-07 arrived yesterday! Hands down, without a doubt, I know it’s going to be an awesome, fun bike. So far only got to put 26 miles on it (weather rolled in) but I can tell this thing is going to be worth every penny.

[@markmiwurds2865]

Btw, great review, Chase.

[@Near2Future]

I have a 2019 MT-07... fun bike great for mods. Only issue i have with mine is horn is easily pressed when you wanna turn right. The stock exhast is also very poor, the seat is also very firm & will give you a sore bottom after an hour of riding & if you do leg day... you'll feel that in your legs & the ass. Other then that no complaints, had mine for 6 months.

[@Neryz92]

I have the 2018 and I can back this up haha. Still love it though. I am curious about maybe changing the suspension

[@chootybeeks1088]

You are absolutely right about the seat and leg days lol but I love mine to death.

[@kleinbottled79]

OC: If I wanna do whoolies easily; I'll hop on my dirt bike. I want my street bikes to have the 'right' balance. Not too easy to wheelie, but not spinning the rear first either. It should be turning as much of the power as possible into acceleration.

Easiest way to describe the MT-07 is the CBR600F Hurricane without fairings - the jack of all trades motorcycle - suitable for street, track, touring, and riding the twisties. Suitable for newbies and experienced riders. Easy on insurance. Easy on the pocket book. Easy on your body.
