2025 Yamaha R9 First Start!

[@jollydanny89]

this is gonna sell like hotcakes. It's just a great bang for the buck. Planning on trading in my bike for this! Hopefully it isn't too marked up and sold out by then.

[@hawakboomstock5402]

🤮🤮🤮

[@devilmaycry383]

I am contemplating 🤔 whether to swap my new gen 4 MT-09 SP. I will wait until the motorcycle show later this month to see the R9 in person before I decide.

[@pnw_r6]

Bro this is so fucking ugly. Those winglets look ghay

[@halcyon_studio]

I put a deposit down the day after the announcement

[@ZAIBYR]

Sad that we have to go into that with that expectation, huh? Would be nice if they made enough of them and dealers didn’t get in the way.

[@arod944]

I hope this thing sells so well that Triumph brings back the real Daytona.

[@humbuggaming2126]

Holy shit yeah, imagine a 765 Daytona

[@ganuvien]

@@humbuggaming2126 They had a 765 Daytona, it was just limited edition and cost as much as a literbike lol.

The 765 moto 2 Daytona is a work of art

[@Thorkell6969]

@@ganuvien Yeah but a lot of people consider it one of the best sport bikes ever, above many liter bikes

Gimme a daytona 1200 based on the speed triple with the same retro front fairing, ugh.

[@NiigataJon]

Bike looks great! Glad to see all the bells and whistles on my XSR900GP is gonna make it to this bike. Y’all gonna love it!!

[@ganuvien]

Wish we'd get the GP in the U.S. 🥲

[@sameralam1549]

Funny how the first thing he said after firing it up is how excited he’s to hear it with an after market exhaust 😂 Definitely a next bike 👌🏼

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

It's gonna sound like an mt09 with an after market exhaust, I don't know why people are so stuck with the sound.

[@Pb_vic]

I already put my deposit on the white & red R9. It looks and seems to be (we will see) a great middle weight bike. I'm hella stoked!

[@JOSERAMIREZ-uy4pc]

How much are they requesting for deposits

[@KharismaRider]

damn the white and red looks beautiful!

[@davidlagno7717]

I put red Luimoto seat covers on all my red or black bikes. It's impossible to screw up and they're worth it in quality over stock vinyl. I got a S1KRR with alot of grey/red carbon fiber and it needed the red seat. Black/red is always my colors

[@s.a.n.t.a.a]

I think I found my new love ❤️ , true Yamaha fans can’t miss this one. As new litre bikes are getting bigger and bigger aero wings this is in sweet position and no one can hate the sound of a 3 cylinder machine

[@grigorirasputin996]

7:51 a garage door opener would actually be dope.

[@davidkomaromi2017]

Spot on with the red seat nitpick. I remember seeing the r6 model you referenced on the showroom floor back in 09 or 08 (whenever it was). The seat combined with that gen’s aesthetic made it the most visually striking Yamaha I’d ever seen. I still remember it 15 years later. It’s a small detail but a missed opportunity on the r9.

[@icecube192]

True. Visually, the best Yamaha model for me is the 2008-2010 model.

[@rufushughes4331]

I LOVE that colorway!!

[@cr0p_dustin]

Love the video man, u are not rushing in the video, its more like chill and slow looking at the details, love it mate

[@Sean-gu3tq]

I had the original R1 with the Red seat .. and this looks equally special … love how the dash mirrors the wonderful analog dials and gear position screen in the R6. Hope they sell tons of them..and they will .

[@e.avegarage]

Always get pumped to ride after watching your vids. Especially on this video since I own a 3rd gen MT09

[@Skimking]

I put a deposit on a white R9 the day they announced it. I was second-guessing my color decision, but now I'm more hyped than ever! Thanks for the vid!

[@juanandbikes]

Thanks for the video! Love the improvised vibe of it. What I, and probably a bunch of us old folks, want is the R6 power plant with the modern electronics of this bike. I guess I’m old but nothing beats the sound and feeling of 17000 RPMs. We lost the 2 strokes and now we are loosing the 4-cylinders RPM monsters. I’ll would need to test ride it I guess. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Tripl3Jinx]

I WILL own this bike i a couple years. Cant wait to upgrade from an FZ07.

[@KriszX12]

Same! I own an MT07 and if I can fit this bike its a trade-in.

five seconds in and i'm like oh damn this bike is like 20 minutes down the street from me haha, i need a sport bike in my life. both my cars rev to 8200+ i need a screamer of a bike too. ive purchased two KTMs from these guys, if they had a supermoto when i wanted one i wouldve too but i got mine from woodinville

[@rossross9491]

That’s a gorgeous bike.. I need to save more money for 2025...

[@xXAkitokunXx]

People hate it, but this is for new riders like me who want to street and track it. Like we don't wanna go track often or go full out, this is for me to have fun on track and then street it can get anywhere with torque. Definitely for people like me and we are the market. It's new riders not the old riders, because old riders don't want this, but R6 never sold well. Why keep something that doesn't sell. If you wanted an R6 you people complaining shouldve bought it. but but but it's too late R9 is here.

[@JoshMeeks-b3l]

120HP is probably gonna be a bit of a handful for a brand new rider. I think the R7 is a better bike for that audience.

[@lateknights1]

tf did i just read

[@amococ2487]

How can you say it's for new riders not old?

[@xXAkitokunXx]

@@amococ2487 Seeing from my community I'm in a lot of them are getting out of sport bikes or they just bought an R1 instead, they tend to not go inbetween, they are like adobo, all power. They track to but they want the full litre experience over this.

[@xXAkitokunXx]

@@JoshMeeks-b3l I would say a new rider is at least 3 years or less experience, for me I've been riding my R3 for a year and feel confident with slow and track that this would be good for me to move to as it is a hybrid.

It's gorgeous,I hope it has some decent top end to deal with some of 600cc-636-750 stuff on the road.Ducati really cut the horsepower on the V2 Panigale 2025 model which I was considering.👍

[@encikseth]

heard it has pit board message on the dash. pit guys can send message to rider 🤯. great video man!

[@amisfitpuivk]

In the Duke 990 release video they hyped up their new LC8c engine and how it was all new stuff inside (I'd assume the 990 RC R has the same one) and how they focus on torque. (Crank) 76 ft lbs on the 990 vs 68 ft lbs on the R9. 425 lbs KTM vs 430 lbs Yamaha too. 8 more ft lbs and about 10 more horsepower with lighter weight for the KTM. Twin vs a triple cylinder too. They both have peak power around 10k RPM. I wanna see how they Dyno against each other, and with an R6. Battle of the 2, 3, and 4 cylinder engines

[@DemPart]

15000€ for the KTM 13500€ for the R9.

[@HermDogg]

You should make time stamps or whatever it’s called, gives the viewer so much more satisfaction watching content like this in my opinion :-)

[@Bladomo]

Jeez, I want one so bad actually. Hopefully it’ll be my next bike 🙏

[@victyper301]

R9 is R1M tech and fuel tank, quick shifter. Extension clip on handlebars, the break master down to the breaks is the same as the Ducati V4r. The frame is not hollow like the mt09

[@amococ2487]

"brakes"

[@tckool1]

The engine is built with slightly different internals also with a diffrent ecu tune and those track modes are really good.

[@mencibenci]

love the tech, hate the looks, will take it for a test ride for sure in march, see if I can make friends with its looks

[@arafathkamath8745]

Such a clean informative video unlike other hyped channels

[@r1learner178]

Love the white paint. Can't bring myself to get rid of my white '08 R1. LOL

[@SirMountainpass]

Excellent basis for some serious mods! Just watched the WorldSSP tests in Cremona - the CP3 (in full race trim, rumoured to crank out 150+ hp) sounds sick on the pit straight 🔥🔥🔥🏁 I expect the R9 to do well next season 😃💯🏁🏆

[@PerciusLive]

I cant wait for yamaha to update the rest of their platforms to have these comfort features. The R3 being updated along with the release pf the R9 is a first step, now we gotta get the R7 up to bar and also the R1 eventually needs these upgrades to be a competitive choice for the market.

[@KimmyR3]

Yamaha just needs to stop being so conservative, especially their halo models. Its competitors are throwing the whole kitchen sink on their bike/s year after, and yamaha is still offering what it was offering 3-8 years ago. No wonder yearly reviews of Yamahas bikes are kinda the same that they feel dated.

[@DashingintheD]

How much ?

[@danielpena-un8vl]

yamaha is finally not going with the crappy brakes, and did brembos all around. thats cool!

[@awmaace3397]

I kinda agree with Yammie when he says I really don't dig the Lunch Tray look...😂

[@KriszX12]

Sadly its true. The black and blue one reeks plastic feel. If I go with this bike cuz I love the engine and can’t get it in white I have to count in a matte wrap job to be done on the fairings.

[@AspektPlays]

BLOWS MY MIND THAT YOU CAN GET A BEAUTIFUL R9 FOR THE SAME PRICE OF A ZX4RR🤯🤯🤯 I’m so glad I’m getting my zx4rr for $7k

[@Black_Drako]

@@AspektPlays you can't get a R9 for the same price as a zx4rr

[@n300zx931]

Cool bike. Definitely still want my 1000 but cool bike still.

[@RapidRedRider]

And for those tired of the same old black key which looks cheap, the YZF keys will work too. I got one cut for my MT09 and people are always asking about how i got a red key

[@TheOriginalJadolph]

Im still torn between the white and the blue, but will definitely be getting one to upgrade from my R3.

[@p7272]

Just came across your channel and the name Adobo is funny because my Japanese wife just made some Adobo last week. ;-))

[@NEVETSTEVEN510]

But then again I love the MT09 but like Nate’s bike I hope it’s not a let down

[@patrickstevens3721]

Whats crazy is the frame alone weighs about as much as the stock exhaust give maybe 5 pounds more for frame. Think about that. Maybe thats why it has Brembos. Because that bike is gonna be FLYING after exhaust swap for track. Just a thought. Because people definitely will get a lighter exhaust and that will make it even more lighter and faster.

[@djtillu6607]

It's absolutely fine and like yzf r6 replacement..... I LOVE THIS ONE because my love YAMAHA YZF R6

[@rhysmonaghan8822]

Definitely looks less aggressive compared to the R6 and R1. Keen to see top speed run and aftermarket exhaust sounds.

[@devon5078]

I’m 6’4, you think it’d be a good fit for a tall rider? stuck between something modern like this or an older gsxr, I know those are comfy for big guys

[@ItsPepito_]

Not a Big fan at first because mt09 engine, but checking dynocharts between r6 and mt09 sp looks like the same but the 09 with a way early power input due its torque and I think in person the bike wins a lot. The only aesthetic ick for me is the front light bulb. An aftermarket exhaust is a must and maybe the aero but after all of that, it will be sold out easy. Be carefull zx6r and cbr600rr, Yamaha is back

[@onlyoneromeo]

I want to see how much power they gonna make when people unlock the ecu and modify them.

[@j4s0n67]

no way people thought it was a bad bike

Can you remove the winglet? Look at 5:11

[@ChrisSauer-oe5ve]

No

[@Miami-GS]

@ChrisSauer-oe5ve there will be after market options. I need to see it in real life.

[@cr0p_dustin]

Looks like there are some bolts, but it's also a pretty big solid connection to the fairing on the side. I wonder though. It's be sweet if they could be removed and replaced by an after market kit that... Just... Isn't a winglet.

[@Bmanfresh]

Love the part at the end. WHERE YALL SAT ON IT!

[@equinox2909]

The customizaton page on the dash is almost identical with CFmoto 675sr-r and Voom. Probably one of the aspects that they've shared with their partner company.

[@apexcobra.official]

I'd love one of these... However, as a street ridden bike, the higher performance ceiling really isnt worth it for me considering my XSR900 insurance is $33/mo and this is probably gonna be $140. Now, if I was riding street and also tracking occasionally, this thing will be hard to beat. I've had over a dozen sportbikes, liter bikes included, and the XSR900 has been my overall favorite bike ever, and in most regards, this is just better. The CP3 engine, especially with exhaust and a tune, is the absolute perfect engine for a streetbike. Can't wait to see these things being tested!

[@ChrisSauer-oe5ve]

It’s 🔥 🔥🔥 Red & White is 🤩

[@saifskyline]

The quickshifter variation was introduced in 2017 by the Suzuki GSXR-1000R

[@ExoticRiderr]

I think its gonna be a good bike for those who dont want a R7 with a lil more power. But i feel people should buy what they want. I would get a R9, but i want a naked bike so maybe in the future.

[@xorvus678]

Is Red&White US only? In Germany i see only Blue and Black

The main Yamaha team is replacing the R6 with the R9 while some others are keeping the R6. Pretty sure to see how it compares and I believe the R6 will be slowly completely replaced since these bikes need to be homologated for the race and the R6 is not on the road anymore.
