2022 YAMAHA MT-09 First Ride and Impressions!

Today, I hop on my brand new MT-09! This model year marks the second iteration of the 3rd generation MT-09, which means that Yamaha has had time to work out any kinks on this already stellar machine!
Hear my first impressions and thoughts about this new addition to my garage.

I've got the MT-09 SP from the previous generation. Bought it brand new last year and still enjoying every single second I sit on this thing. I love videos like this, because I can totally relate to your first impressions and I am always happy to see other riders experiencing that type of happiness. Ride safe and congratulations to your new bike brother. Greetings from Bavaria, Germany

[@krakan9742]

Got my mt-09 last weekend. Having such a blast on it! Ride safe my dude.

[@myst0307]

Have the exact same year and color just got mine 2 months ago. Loooving it. Good review and congrats man. Also, careful with D mode 1. The throttle response is super intimidating.

[@alexwotherspoon5630]

Great to see someone enjoying their new bike 😉 pick mine up next weekend 😎 I've waited like you for a good few years and gen 3 is so amazing 👍

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Exciting stuff! You’re going to love it

[@maschienraum]

Happy for you! Enjoy riding and ride safe....i ordered a XSR 900 2022 and I have now a 1994 Yamaha YZF 750....for me it will be also a complete new experience of riding! I have ridden the MT09 last year in a test ride and I was already convinced.....cheers from Hamburg Germany...dado

Thanks for the video, I felt like reliving the day I bought mine :) Mine is black, never liked the colors for the 09 until I saw yours, that blue is gorgeous! In every MT-09 review someone says "I'm in love"

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Yeah, I wasn’t sure about the blue until I saw it in person!

[@tiygur]

Awesome! Enjoy and ride safe! 🤙

[@ilive4d80s6]

I'm so happy, and freaking jealous at the same time for you. I caught you video cuz I'm searching for a replacement, and upgrade bike that lost in a wreck just a couple of months ago. I was thinking about getting the MT07, but than I changed my mind in getting the next best thing. This beautiful thing that you got. I would love to get the red, but in actuallity I don't really care forthe color as long as I can get that bike. I can't wait till I'm fully healed, and able to ride to get this bike.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Thanks for watching! The new gen MT-09s are hard to find these days, but if you really search around, they are still out there! Hope you recover quickly and that the search will be successful for you!

[@spacecoastz4026]

When I purchased my 2015 FZ-09, the dealership had about five in stock. I still have the bike and I ride it every week.

[@pepecns]

Yo la tengo en negro y es una maravilla, los frenos tienen que hacer su rodaje igual que la moto en si. Que la disfrutes con mucho cuidado. Saludos.

[@petedetraglia4776]

I own a 2017 FZ-09 that a bought new. Some of the great features of this bike is the ride position is so comfortable, the fact that you sit into the bike and not on top of it like my 2005 ZRX1200R, the CP3 cross plane motor just absolutely sounds amazing and I'm talking the motor not the exhaust, and my year the air intake sounds like a whistling freight train when you roll open the throttle in top gear. The stock brakes are really good you just got to let them pad wear into the rotor for a few miles until they mesh up. Power is everywhere on this bike as a blip of the throttle and your looking at the sky... This bike is all hooligan once you get used to it and its one of the most fun bikes to ride all day long as it comfortable and you can ride with any class of bike and still keep up with them... Yamaha really needs to get their head together with designing the front cowl cause my year looks like a transformer... I bought a slightly taller wind screen where it puts the wind more at my helmet than in my chest like the stock one does. Great bike and I've never had any issues with it since a bought in new in 2017...Good luck with yours...

[@KrazyKramer]

I have the same FZ 09. Great bike. Installed Yamaha QS. Best front end look.

[@Brian_R6]

I got a 2018 model and it's an absolute blast. The power is amazing in every gear. My 2012 R6 was fast but not as much fun as this.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Totally agree! I’m coming from an ‘04 ZX10R

[@KentRoads]

R6 is like 125HP isn't it?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

@@KentRoads Depends on how it’s been modified. Stock horsepower for the 2020 R6 is 116.7 hp @ 14,500 rpm and torque is 61.7 Nm (45.5 ft-lb) @ 10,500 rpm. Compare that to the MT-09, which has 117.4 hp and 93 Nm (68.6 ft-lb) of torque @ 7,000 rpm, you end up with two bikes with very similar top speed characteristics (with the R6 being even a bit faster due to its gearing), but the MT-09 has way more torque. That’s what makes these bikes so fun to ride.

[@RynoDinero]

Boutta sell my 2020 r6 for one of these

[@Brian_R6]

@@RynoDinero you won't regret selling your R6. You'll have much more usable power on the street than if you were on a sport or Supersport. I'm selling my 2018 model for the 2023 one.

[@Bike-Curious]

I'm sure you've figured out by now but in case to anyone else. The bike has 2 brake control modes stock is BC2 which is a lot less aggressive. However BC1 feels like the bike should feel when braking!

[@RideSafeNSmart]

I had no idea, will look into that! Cheers

[@mathiassammer5714]

Got my Mt-09 a month ago. All I can say is, that the brakes get better.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

I’ve been riding mine for about a month as well, and I would have to agree! Still not the best brake pads I’ve tried, but they have no trouble getting the job done.

[@ST-es5wu]

If you have perfect road conditions, turn off the ABS and the brakes have perfect feel.

[@andrewsmith9677]

Been riding dirt bikes my entire life looking to get one of these within the next week or so, looking at the xsr 900 tho

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

I’ve heard great things about the XSR 900, and the great thing is that, either way, you’re getting the same engine. I personally like the MT-09 platform better, but really, it comes down to personal preference and availability. You’ll love it either way you go!

[@Sunrazor]

Tips for new MT-09 owners. You can set a rev indicator for 5300rpm during break in, which you are not supposed to pass, that turns it orange. Very handy. And break in is easier in drive mode 4 as it cuts the power back a bit.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Great tip! Those are both great tools to help with the break in process. To add to this, the wording in the manual states, “avoid prolonged operation above 5300 RPM [for first 600 miles / 1000km]” Short bursts above 5300 RPM (even up to redline) are okay and even beneficial during the break in process as long as they’re not sustained. They help to bed in the cylinders over the full range of RPMs that they will encounter. Fortnine covers this topic in the “How to Break In Your New Motorcycle” video. My dealer told me, “Ride normally during the break in. Don’t run speed trials or bounce the engine off the rev limiter and you’ll be fine.” The 5300 RPM is more of a guideline than a hard rule.

[@Sunrazor]

@@FullThrottleFreedomChannel I somewhat agree. It's not a hard limit but the idea is to polish all surfaces. This include cams, crank etc. And even though fortnine is a great channel I think polishing is done carefully. So I would ride softer than normal. High revs cause higher load on surfaces but some short bursts with limited throttle is probably a good idea. 😊 And this will not show up until years later if done wrong. Any new engine can be run however you like. But it will affect the longevity of the engine.

[@themonk1327]

Nice, I have the exact same bike, got mine from Blackfoot. Looks like you're in Calgary if you ever wanna go for a rip. 👍🏽

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Nice! I looked at Blackfoot, but all the MT-09s were already spoken for this year. Thought I wasn’t going to get one. Yeah definitely!

[@sleepyheadfpv1507]

I own a 2021 in exact color. I pop the wheel in mode 3.

[@kbk011]

Any discounts in Calgary? Seems like no deals in ottawa

Not on the bike itself unfortunately, but I got between 10-20% off all my mods that I bought through the dealership!

[@thebikerfreak9953]

I really want that new 2022 GXS 900 form Yamaha

[@Monkey.Trades.Futures]

brakes also need to breake in ?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Definitely! The brakes do need to bed in, but I also just replaced the brake pads on my 2004 ZX10R, so I am comparing to how those felt during the bed in process (I should have mentioned that more clearly). The brakes do feel a lot better now that I’ve fully bedded them in, but they still are a little less powerful than a super sport.

[@JRG_11]

How is the mt09 for taller riders? I'm 6' 2", would I be comfortable on it?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Depends how long your legs are. I’m 6’0” and I’m fairly comfortable on it.

[@onildofernandesreis657]

Essa moto chegar quando no mercado brasileiro

[@dcasandman]

Trying to decide now on MT09. Still happy after 3 months?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Definitely! This bike’s a keeper for sure. All the torque and acceleration you could ever want out of a street bike and lots of tech and electronics to compliment. It does top out at 231 km/h (143 mph) though, so it definitely doesn’t have super sport speed if that’s what you’re going for.

[@MrMcReeties]

Been looking to get an MT-09 for a while now but they’re almost impossible to find here in Arizona. Can dealers place orders for you? Or do you kinda just have to wait? Currently there are ZERO 2022 MT-09’s for sale here in Arizona(according to Yamaha website and cycle trader).

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

It’s definitely a supply chain issue from Yamaha. I pre-ordered mine back in January and I only just got it in mid-May. When I ordered mine, most dealerships were already sold out and they hadn’t even received the bikes yet. Other manufacturers also have limited stock, but Yamaha is one of the worst, from what I’ve heard. Unfortunately for most places, I think the stock that they received (or that’s being shipped right now) is the only stock they’re getting from Yamaha for the entire year… My dealership didn’t get any 2021 models AT ALL, and they are only getting 2 MT-09s and 1 MT-09SP this year, and that’s it.

[@MrMcReeties]

@@FullThrottleFreedomChannel Well that’s very depressing :( I might have to wait until the 2023 then I guess. Gonna call a couple dealerships tomorrow

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

@@MrMcReeties I know man, the past couple of years have sucked… Don’t lose all hope though! You’d be surprised what a couple of phone calls and a little bit of determination can get you.

[@NETBotic]

Yes, go to the dealer and place an order or get on a wait list. Yamaha has been like this for a long time with certain models. The last one I waited over a year for was the WR250R.

[@speedprotege]

are those the rocky mountains I see?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Haha, yes they are! Spoiled with the Alberta views 👌🏻

[@leel8479]

Dude, you don't know how to release the clutch smooth do you?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

If you watch carefully, I was actually very smooth on releasing the clutch. The problem was that my old bikes friction point is very different so I’m used to rolling on the throttle quite a bit earlier. It was more muscle memory thing, and that is what you were hearing in the video 😅 Not an excuse, but it’s a common thing for people who switch to this bike.

[@99Lmaster]

The brakes will get better once the pads mates with the discs

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

After riding the bike for about 1000 km, they've definitely improved, but they still don't have as much initial bite as I would like. Just personal preference more than anything, but I like it when the braking power starts right away, pretty much as soon as the pads touch the rotor (10-20% of total brake level travel). With these, it feels like the braking power doesn't really onset until about 40-50% of total brake lever travel.

[@sheepdog1102]

You would think that they would have adjusted the sag before you left the dealership.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

You’d think, hey? Their justification was that it allows the shock and forks to break in a little bit, but it shouldn’t matter in my opinion. I think it’s also to see if I have any other issues with the bike before we adjust any of the standard settings.

[@tubo2491]

I was talking to a buddy from work he's say 61 I think and rides an 05 r1 his biggest advice ride confident and within your limit never ride if you feel scared or unsure of yourself that day shit hit me be smart

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

This is solid advice. Unfortunately, I had to learn this the hard way when I first started riding a few years ago… I always rode to 90 or 95 percent of my limit, and one day I crossed over that threshold. I didn’t have the training to correct my mistake before I hit the ditch. I fortunately walked away unscathed, but sadly I ended up totaling my first bike. Hard lesson to learn. I am still by no means an exceptional rider, but I’ve learned to be much smarter on a motorcycle. Now I only ride up to 70 percent (usually much less than that) of what I’m capable of, so I have that extra 30 percent to give when something unexpected happens.

[@victorhuang5516]

Would you say the MT-09 is a really good starter bike?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

To be honest, it’s not the best starter bike unless you are already somewhat familiar with riding. And even then, I wouldn’t start on something this new regardless of how much I knew about bikes. It’s a perfect second or third bike though! But, if someone did decide to start on a 2021 or newer MT-09 (has to specifically be 2021 or newer), there are 4 different drive modes that would let them build up to the bike’s full power.

[@victorhuang5516]

Thanks for the advice. I’ll probably look into the used market first then.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

@@victorhuang5516 Might not be a bad idea! The reason I say that is that a lot of people end up dropping or tipping over their first bike, and end up dinging it up. And if you don't, then that just means whatever bike you buy for your first bike will hold more value when you're ready to sell! Not to mention that learning to ride can be hard on a bike from all the stalling, harsh/choppy inputs, wear on the clutch from learning how to shift and get the bike going, etc. Finally, bigger bikes are harder to control which can further contribute to dropping or looping the bike. Hope you find something that you love!

[@MorManIg]

The only reason I ask is because I have just ordered an sp myself, scheduled delivery early September. I like the original colour combo slightly more than the sp but I couldn’t miss out on the extra bits it comes with. Does yours have cruise control?

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

@@MorManIg Fair enough! You won't regret going with the SP at all. One thing I've learned about colors, is that 9/10 times the color you get ends up growing on you anyways. Mine doesn't have cruise control no... I thought that was such a cool feature too. For most of the riding I do, I wouldn't need it, but it sure would be nice for those longer rides!

[@dg8062]

You must be in Canada, eh? Yeah, breaks take a couple hundred miles to seat, pads are kinda junk anyway. Replace those pads with EBC DOUBLE-H sintered pads, $40 per rotor. Absolutely guaranteed the best money you'll spend, HUGE difference.

[@FullThrottleFreedomChannel]

Haha, what tipped you off? You have good taste! I just put the Extreme Pro version of the EBC double-H sintered pads on my 2004 ZX10R. A little more expensive that the general double-H, but they have extra ingredients and an even higher quality manufacturing process (vacuum furnace) that makes them suitable for track use, while still being acceptable on the street.
