If you can would appreciate know how the power and engine charities feel in comparison to a mt10. Never got to ride an mt10 but always wondered how they feel in comparison to my 2021 mt09

[@Davido50]

Love you long time guys!?? Gay .

[@QiyuanZhou21]

Fun fact: IMUs are used to measure acceleration. Six axis IMU means that the IMU is capable of measuring the 3 axes of linear acceleration in X,Y,Z (up/down, left/right, front/back) as well as rotational acceleration around each of the 3 X,Y,Z axis (yaw/pitch/roll).

[@HardlyaDavidson]

That is very fun to me actually

Fun facts are tools of cishet fascist white supremacy

[@deemspring]

When i was on the road to test this bike. I lost my father. Im pretty sure he would be very sad if he'd knew that i wasnt able to test this one. He always wanted to buy mt 09 sp for himself additionally he was going to soon but its life you cant know whats gonna happen. Rest well my dear father i'll miss you so much.

I am so glad I bought one of these, but you put into words and laughter how I feel riding this every...single...time. Long time stable machine for sure.

[@guitarmike4ever]

This bike looks like fun ma man! Your laugh on first twist, Yamaha owes you for marketing Chase 😆 6-axis means x,y,z,pitch,roll,yaw, 3 for linear acceleration, 3 for angular rate.

[@love4boost]

Bc2 is cornering abs. Bc1 is standard old fashioned abs

[@brianschutt5359]

Was scrolling through the comments looking for this info. Great video for sure. Just one little bit of misinformation. No biggie! This bike has a LOT of features for sure. Great machine.

[@lynnlittle8671]

I just bought a standard model 2021 MT-09 a few weeks ago. I've been dialing in the suspension and tire air pressures, with very noticeable results. The standard settings and air pressures are NOT optimum. I'm not through dialing it in, but even so, I am so freaking happy with this thing!

[@TerrorBunney]

did a test ride today on the standard version. What a beast that is! holy crap! i freaked out when the front wheel came up at first because it was the first time i had that happen to me on a bike but it was SO EXHILARATING. getting one in 2022.

[@MyRandomLife247]

BC is nothing to do with engine braking. It allows you to choose whether you want normal ABS or lean-sensitive.

[@maxspies8908]

yes!

[@noahwayne5604]

Getting my ‘21 SP here very soon. Your review made it that much more exciting and now I can’t freaking wait lol

[@KaniNarci]

This is the best review on this bike THANK YOU!

[@michaelakachunk]

Production quality is second to none man! love the very in depth reviews and talking about all the pros and cons. I stayed away from the older MT09 because of the suspension and brake issues they've had so its nice to see that they've somewhat resolved those.

[@wildlifeshorts3475]

I wish they made an R9. Supersport body with clip ons but the same inline 3 cylinder would be so much fun

[@bradcarter6396]

I wish they would make an R9 that would be so cool

[@phillipbruce2104]

Great ride review, if you haven't done so already I'd like to see how it performs after you dial in the suspension. A video of the process would be awesome too.

[@koenzuidwijk5433]

Can you make a vid comparing the mt-10 and this Mt-09.

[@808Affliction]

I have a 2016 FZ09 and I still love it till this day.

[@RevechoRides]

Watched this from beginning to end - awesome video man! Digging the 3rd person shots of the bike, gives a good idea of what the bike looks like in motion. Also dope that you covered some informative bits that most of other bike reviews dont 😎

[@bosk1n]

Owning MT09-SP for 2 months now. Finding myself doing wheelie every time I get a chance: 1. Powerwheelie on 1st from every stoplight where there is a straight line. 2. Clutch wheelie on a second - straight road without traffic outside the town :)

[@enhancdreality]

The audio is so clear for being recorded on a motorbike while riding

[@chaseontwowheels]

Thanks. We spend a lot of time making it like that.

[@pax1980]

@1:57 I'm not sure what that was but I liked it!

[@YankiRides]

this one comment is enough to validate the effort LOL

Just about to ride my 2021 mt09. We usually go straight winter where I live so it is nice to enjoy some fall. Am liking my mt09 with over 4000 miles so far of only fun riding, no commuting

[@njoy_8987]

OC: Man... I just want one. I can tell by your giggles how much you were enjoying the bike. I'm getting the 09SP anyway (may require a few bank heists) regardless of the mountain loads of power I won't be able to handle. Rain mode is there, no?😅😅😅 Bless you all people who've got 09s. Thanks for the ridiculously thrilling video, Chase. Lots of love 💖

[@treedogg]

MT10 redesign this year. There are pics and specifications surfacing

[@someguyontheinternet7165]

If I didn't already have a 2nd gen mt09 I'd definitely be going out for one of these. Not worth the switch for me but for anyone moving up from smaller bikes or stepping down from the committed stance of super sports it's the choice I'd be making.

[@righteous247]

OC This is torture. I'm at the top of my dealerships waiting list with a pile of parts just waiting for my mt09. I'm glad it tickles you in the feelies

[@gavin3810]

Worth the wait I got my sp 2 months ago I absolutely love it

[@jrm15082]

Got lucky with mine called the dealer they said they will be getting one in a few weeks said I should put a deposit, so I put a deposit he's like it should be a couple weeks. Next day hey it came in today and in line for assembly 2 days later

[@Abundance4LL]

I wish I started on mode 2 or 1 my first ride that would’ve been so shockingly fun. Only problem is the electronics have recall n dies out sometimes

[@RevolverMaxx]

BC is Brake control. Not engine braking. Mode 1 is standard abs based on wheel speed and vehicle speed for straight up and down emergency braking. BC2 is cornering abs now using inputs from the IMU.

[@95turboteggy65]

Nice review. I pre ordered a 14' fz09 when they first came out awesome bike until my second set of tires I could ever fix wheel wobble @105 mph. multiple trips to the dealership trying to fix the suspension issue. Happy to hear they addressed it now.

[@christopher7310]

[@JamieS1992]

23:00 a mate had an MT-09 he called it his fun bike he enjoyed taking it out alot he also had a 2005 R1 said the MT-09 is was 61 at the time was the best bike to wheelie that he had ever ridden he ended up trading it in for an MT-10 says its a different beast but wheelies easier which does not mean better, he didnt have all those modes though

[@brianschutt5359]

OC: I have the 2021 standard model MT-09 and I’d like the SP for sure based on looks and cruise control. I think Yamaha did make the perfect bike. My only complaint is the menu wheel as well. A little difficult to use. Still a very minor complaint.

[@1955Paawpabear]

What is the difference between the standard model vs the SP?

[@deweysturgill6220]

@@1955Paawpabear suspension - better adjustability to front forks, ohlins rear shock, stock one is pretty bad if you ride the twisties hard. Also has cruise control, a polished rear swingarm, custom paint.. I have the base model, and am already changing the forks and searching for a rear shock. If you've never rode a really good suspended bike you won't even think about it.

[@AGPullen]

OC: This could possibly be the perfect bike, at least until the new MT-10 comes out. My '14 FZ-09 has Ohlins front and rear which really improves the ride, as well as a tune, full Yoshimura exhaust, intake mod, and lots of Woodcraft goddies. I wish mine had cruise control and the other rider aids but it performs pretty well for what it is. I'll have to keep an eye out for a demo day and give the new SP a try. I may be tempted to trade mine in for one! Also, mode 4 (from how you explained it) seems like a newbie could get this bike and work their way up the power band. Like they could just grow with this bike, especially with all the electronic rider aids. Great video Chase!

Happy to feature mt-09 man, waiting for mine to arrive this month very good timing to see your thoughts of it.

[@love4boost]

There’s still some snap to the throttle in d2, it’s completely gone at d3. I always keep tc in manual so I can have tcs and lif at 1 and slc at 2 because I’m only comfortable with my Harley cutting loose when I’m leaned over. I’m definitely going to take mine out now because I’m jealous of watching Chase get all the wheelie fun

[@JamesExcell-InterJex]

OC Yessir! This is probably a better bike for you than your mt10 tbh.

I’ll be posting many rides & reviews on my page as well if you’re interested in this bike

[@yveslemmens5384]

The other day I was riding in the dark and you can't see the buttons. So ended up pressing like all the wrong buttons on the left side. Then, I thought I had a major issue with my bike, as it lost huge amount of power. Wouldn't accelerate anymore. Turned out I put in mode 4 by accident... I fully agree with your review. I have the standard with upgraded suspension and new rear shock since 4 months to drive in the twisties / hooligan. 7000 miles now. Enjoy your bike!

[@yveslemmens5384]

It also keeps me surprising every time of how hard the bike pulls in 2nd gear. What a machine. Went to 15T too

[@jennynester9980]

OC: Can you compare it to the MT07? Like would holding out for the hopes of an MT07 SP be worth it or is this bike just hands down more fun all around?

[@DB-sd3cw]

The mt07 is a slow and boring pig compared to the 09

[@500Sander]

He should 100% compare them, I have a mt07 (2018) and if you like wheelies but you are not all that experienced or if you live in europe i would take the mt07. If you just love speed the mt09 would be better. You can rip a mt07 but its not a topspeed kind of bike.

[@italyguy08]

Would be awesome to see an mt-09 SP vs KTM duke 890r comparison video. Both are amazing machines from the looks of it.

[@brianschutt5359]

I had to go with the MT09 over the 10 simply for the drastic difference in fuel mileage…. 49mpg vs 30mpg. That’s a big deal for me commuting. If the 10 got over 40mpg… I’d be all about it!

[@ganuvien]

I'm in the same boat, only had my XSR700 as first bike for a few years and ready to upgrade to more power/comforts. I'm kinda holding out for 2022 MT10 to see how it's upgraded but I do more 70+ mph riding than city stuff and they're also both major price differences and insurance costs, etc.

[@commanderroddi7742]

MT stands for "master of Torque" but should be "Master of Wheelies"! Fun bike for sure! I saw a dude doa wheelie from 1st through 5th grear! bike is insane fun! but the electronics on it are good enough to contain the bike as well. I think this sector of bikes is where its at! Things like MT-09 SP, 890 Duke R, Street Triple RS, Streetfighter V2 and maybe MV Agusta 800 RR? Perhaps z900 and GSX-S750? My buddy has MT-09, and I almost bought one. I had liter bikes (R1M, GSX-R1000R) and other fun bikes (Super DUke R, Street Triple R). My Triple R got ran over by a truck in a supermarket parkinglot recently, and I needed to pick a new bike. I look at liter bikes (ZX-10R, GSX-R1000R) and maybe a new Super DUke R, but ended up picking up the 80 Duke R. Almost went with a MT-09 or XSR900 (I was looking for z900RS (non cafe but could not find one of those). What turned me to the DUke over MT-09 was the suspension on it, the torque down low, the looks, the breaks (being able to put ABS into supermoto where I can slide rear wheel and doo stopies b/c ABS doesn't get on the way), and the amoutn of customization on electronics (which was what won me over the Triple RS along with the lower torque). Love that bike now! (890) BUt My buddy has MT-09 and we swap, and this bike is a beast and a lot of fun! Chase: you going to swap MT-10 for the MT-09 SP? Or have you looked at XRS900? Also, what is chance of getting KTM ot lend an 890 Duke R and doing a Duke v MT-09 v street triple maybe? not sure if you guys can do that, but it'd be awesome of you could. as for perfect bike, It is dam good, again, I prefered 890 DUke R for Canyon blasting and it felt more stable, and I like the lower torque curve over the two triples I was looking at.

OC: Awesome video as always!! Would you say this bike could work for a taller somewhat of a beginner rider? Could someone keep it on mode 4 and work their way up as they get more comfortable? Seems like the rider aides can be beneficial for someone with less experience. Just to be clear, I'm not saying a brand new rider. I'm referring to a more mature rider who perhaps has not ridden in a while.

I didn't drive for 13 years and bought this. No problem at all. Drove it in Mode 4 for about 5 min. Then changed it to mode 1. Figured I got used to it already during the break in period where you can not exceed 5000 RPM anyway. Worked out perfectly.
