Cyclecruza, I own 2015 FZ-09 and 2020 Indian Scout Bobber. I enjoy both bikes very much. It was only 9$ more a month for insurance to add the Indian. So for that reason I'm keeping FZ. All that being said.. the FZ hits 80 as soon as I hit second gear. Here in NC with speed limits only 55 is a problem. So I think I gonna trade FZ-09 for an MT-07. Can't go wrong, good choice homie!!

[@clubstyleridahd4695]

I sold mine for a SV650 . It's a lot more playful and still fast. I think you will be happy with the 07

[@yiannisoumilas437]

Don’t knock it till you try it. I had sport bikes dual sport supermoto. I still have my supermoto and my Harley. Love my street glide one of the best bikes I’ve ever ridden so comfortable layed back relaxed and it got balls. She moves

[@CycleCruza]

I tried it, my friends all have baggers and they seem like tanks to me but I'm still out here on an immature man child level. lol I just find small quick bikes more exciting but hey that is just my preference. No hate, cruisers are just not at the top of my list but I still have love for them.

[@rvaillant]

MT-07 would be a great city bike. The reason to get a Harley, Gold Wing, etc. is for long distance highway riding. MT-07 has no wind protection, cruise control, heated grips, etc. So two totally different applications. Let's go for a Ride!

[@GrecoRoman123]

1:10 I can do all those things on a Cruiser, CycleCruiser. >:) Honda Magna 750. Got it for $2k over 10 yrs ago. Boom! U aint getting an MT-07 for $2k son!

[@Matt-ix6ne]

The most miles I’ve ever put on a motorcycle is a Harley Road King. I actually use it for touring which is the most fun I’ve had on a motorcycle. I have owned a YZ450f supermoto, R6, MT-09 and a Iron 883. Me and my wife have traveled together all over the United States on the road king, hands down some of the greatest memories that I have. Nothing like hitting the open road! Ride safe

[@chriszurinski5945]

Called my dealership on Friday, picked up my brand new 2022 Yamaha blue MT-07 on Saturday. First bike, I’m falling more and more in love as I get used to it. Rode about 250 miles this weekend. Definitely getting the exhaust but first I’ll get rid of the ugly fender

[@MT-THNDR207]

This bike is great to launch. Spike the throttle and let the clutch out halfway into the friction zone. It is so exhilarating. Down shifting, waiting a sec, then easing on and accelerating is so fun to me. Btw, 3rd gear has the best ratio between length & absolute pulling power. I am so happy that you chose to get this bike, man. Welcome to the CP2 fam. Oh... and don't forget to take the slop out of the throttle. It makes it so much more responsive and fun. That's done very easily by the barrel adjuster on the top throttle cable in front of the master cylinder.

[@mrhands2757]

Totally agree, the mt07 is a beast and can't wait to hear that exhaust!! You made an awesome choice!!

[@leospeeds500]

For a cruiser, my Rebel 500 sure acts as if it wants to be a naked bike

[@supermalevitality8532]

There's some guy in my neighborhood that rides a 600 pound Harley and wheelies it at 12 o clock for miles at a time while wearing usually jeans and a Hawaiian shirt lol. I see him on my way back from work all the time because we take the same backroad to get home

[@CycleCruza]

Dang! Some of them do have lots of torque. It amazes me when I see dudes do wheelies on Harleys. Looks badass.

[@grumpyrider8801]

you are correct about some of your points. I like the sound of my Dominator Exhaust better than the Akropovic. But neither of them sounds better than my 2003 HD Lowrider with Vance and Slash cuts or my 2014 HD Street Glide with a decatted front pipe with Rhineharts, I like all 3 for three different purposes. I rip in the twisties of the Hudson Valley I commute 43 miles each way and I do NY to NC at least once a year and have done a IBA saddle sore 1000. 1124 miles in 21 hors 53 minutes Not doing that on a MT07

Gonna order a MT-07 2023 Tech Black in two days... i'm so excited.. I can't wait! :D

[@simassidlauskas995]

Had an Mt-07 2021, so this exact body style, went from that to a z900rs and now I have a Triumph Speedmaster, a cruiser. Yes, the MT-07 is soooo much fun, better then the z900rs, but the z900rs was classic, pure old school 4cyl speed, the MT07 is very playful, my speedmaster has similar engine feel of the large 270 degree parallel twin, but I enjoy the clasic look and feel and the riding position also. It’s all in the perspective of what you are looking for.

[@everythinggaming7938]

nothing sucks, the magic of motorcycles is that each one makes you feel different, get whatever makes you feel good

[@mikeskidmore6754]

I never did a Track day in my Life but I want to do one as soon as I get a Leather one piece suit like most tracks require.. I rode my 2016 FZ-07 down to the tail of the Dragon .. When I got there I took 80# of luggage off the bike .. Mine has Ohlin front Cartridges.. I passed every other bike I encountered.. I would think there would be guys a lot faster than me. I even kept up with Guys on Ducati's with full Leather race suits and knee pucks.. This really Surprised me . I guess applying what I know about ski racing worked..

[@CycleCruza]

Nice! That is why I keep telling people the liter bikes are overkill, you hardly ever use the full power of them, only on the highway. In twisties, the MT-07 can take nearly all of the bikes because most riders don't have the skills to go past 100 mph in twisties anyways and the MT-07 does that. And if you go past 100 mph in the twisites you are a fool with a death wish. However, for many riders it is all about having the fastest bike for bragging and showing off, most are not worthy of such a powerful bike.

[@mikeskidmore6754]

@@CycleCruza Glade I have a few years of dirt bike riding experience.. The 1 Liter bikes are called Donor cycles.. because so many young riders die on them and leave behind good young organs for those who need them . Plus Insurnace is really high on 1 Liter bikes because they go so fast in an instant.. Some one said the MT-09 is the most crashed Motorcycle. It also has enough power to get inexperienced riders in trouble in a flash

[@Will-jd2br]

The problem is that the foot pegs are high up and they cause knee pain when touring. That’s why you see so many ADV bikes on the road. Their tall stature gives you more leg room. You can also throw around an adventure bike like a sport bike if you want to (without scraping pegs like a Harley).

[@erinsable]

get a mt09 problem solved i 6'2 and no prob at all n i have chronic pain

[@CycleCruza]

Yeah ADV bikes make great cruisers as well. This MT-07's pegs are very comfortable to me, almost cruiser-like mid pegs. I'm 6 ft with a 34" inseam and I can ride this bike all day, legs are fine. I did not like the pegs on the Tuono, that felt no different than pegs on superbikes, uncomfortable after long rides like you mentioned.

[@ZSmith-yy4lv]

T7 is a possibility in the adventure segment. Good bike In it’s own right, but it also has the engine that we like enough for Yamaha to put it in 4 different bikes.

[@ericmiller6218]

Congrats on the new bike! What is your answer for a 6' person who wants mid foot pegs?

I've only known cruisers, Enduros and rockets. When I saw the naked sport bike I was in love... went and bought an mt07 yesterday. Having them store it until spring is going to be rough.

[@CycleCruza]

Nice! Congrats! Why do you have to store it? You myst life in the ice zone? I ride all year here in Cleveland, even in the winter, just as long as the roads are clear and it is at least 40 degrees.

You compare apples to oranges! You talk about taking a cruiser and rip and roaring. That's not what a cruiser is for they are meant for comfort and distance.

I'm just saying you can cruise on a naked bike and do more with it. Actually, many riders are getting ADV bikes are cruisers now, better leg room and higher rider view.

[@shanewinstead6776]

I wanna see them put 400 to 800 miles in a day on a naked bike you will be one sore unit

[@jones3892]

I'm not a Harley fan boy but there are two "HUGE" advantages to having the cruiser... the fairing on the front protecting you from the wind on long trips and the level of customization for Harley is probably more extensive than every other brand on the planet. Around town, the mt-07. Taking a trip out of state on a windy day, i'll rent a Harley or hop on an Indian Chieftan.

[@jeman022004]

The MT07 is a fun bike, but not so fun on a windy day. That is the only time I wish I had the cruiser weight. Those geezer glides are also great for going to the store with all the storage.

[@d17a2dude]

Been eyeballing an mt07 but decided to start on a 390 duke. It's been really fun but one day, I'll get an mt07 to replace it as my second bike.

[@sonamsanzari1081]

Very expensive to fix the KTM any issues with her so far?

[@jimdiamondcoles]

Cycle Cruza, you can love your bike without bashing Harley. And by the way, a Harley sound beats ANYTHING you can put on a naked bike.

[@clubstyleridahd4695]

Right now I own a sv650, fully built Harley, DRZ supermoto and a dirt bike. They are all fun to me. Some days I'll only want to ride the SV and then a couple weeks go by and I only want to ride the Harley. When I want to go off road or practice wheelies I get on the SM or dirt bike. They all have their place.

[@fredmaldonado9204]

Yo Cycle Cruza when you going slap on that new muffler? Come brother let us fans hear that Akro sound from that Mt07 double-R-

[@TheFirstCause]

Oh man, the Ducati Diavel 1260S is a dream bike! I love that thing! It is effectively a naked muscle cruiser super combo. I need more experience riding though before getting one as they are expensive and I while I'm a responsible rider I feel a tad nervous with that power and price tag combined. Aiming to get a cheaper used MT09 and keeping it in baby mode.

[@paganrythyms]

I ride a Honda cb500x now and will trade it in once the rebel 1100 bagger comes out as my daily rider. Would luv the Yamaha XSR900 for a second bike tho

Would you say the mt03 is good as well? I am not wanting some huge bike, but I am on a tnt 135 right now and I want bigger.

[@CraigSmith568]

I have both and there are times one is better than the other. For longer rides I'm taking the cruiser. For being a hooligan it's the 07 for sure.

[@ZP1993]

I rode the driving school's 2015 MT07 (both on the course and on public roads) when getting my motorcycle license,and my own bike is a cruiser. I find cruisers much more comfortable,on the MT07 my wrists and sometimes lower back would start to hurt after more than 30 minutes of riding because of the riding position,I have no such problems on my own bike where I sit upright. That being said,I do think the MT07 is a good bike for what it's made for,but what it's made for is not to be an alternative to a cruiser.

[@erthwermmusic]

Alright man, I am definitely getting an MT-07 now haha. As much as I love my Honda Shadow Aero, every point in this video was spot on. A question for you: are 2018 MT-07s worth getting? I found a great deal from a private seller selling their stock MT-07 for $6,500. I don't mind the old looks.

[@maddoxswann9760]

That's about as good of a deal youre going to find honestly. As long as its not clapped out you should get it. It's the same 689cc cross plane crank which is what makes these bike so much fun and so desirable.

[@erthwermmusic]

@@maddoxswann9760 It is literally 100% stock. Not even a fender delete or turn signal swap! I'll def pull the trigger on it

[@CycleCruza]

Cool! I never rode the older MT=07 model but it has the same engine so I'm sure it is as fun. For five hundred or a thousand more you might be able to pick up a deal on a used 2021 but they are so hard to find it ain't funny.

[@chronichappy]

Its worth it.

[@tyrfing290]

I only take it off when it's over 90-F Go out and ride 300 miles one way at 80 mph on the Highway then turn and and ride 300 miles back .. I have not yet worn my snowmobile clothes on my bike but I do need to upgrade from riding shoes to winter boots..

I have a 2022 mt-09 and I have a 05 Harley Electra glide. I like both bikes about equally. Like you said they are completely different animals. But I will tell you I've been on a mt-07 and my screamin eagle 103 feels faster than a mt-07 off of the line. I still think you should have went gen 3 mt-09 instead. I've had every gen fz/Mt 09 and the gen 3 is way better all around than the first 2 generations.

I like custom street fighters personally. Although have you ever ridden a Ducati hypermotard? It’s like a SM for the streets I freaking love that bike

[@CycleCruza]

I have yet to ride a Hypermotard but to me it is just a street bike, they weigh over 400 lbs. I believe. It is not a supermoto but still a cool looking bike and I'm sure the engine is amazing because Ducati makes soulful fun engines.

[@Fee.1]

@@CycleCruza yea no it’s definitely not a supermoto but I think it was inspired by one. I mean the MT07 is 400 pounds so having a bike with same with and more motor with some sumo inspired looks…hard to go wrong imo. I was smitten when I test rode it.

[@lgwappo]

I had one cruiser & it was the most uncomfortable motorcycle I ever owned or rode. Suzuki S40. Possibly it was just too small. My knees were higher than my pelvis which made me slouch which was very tiring. Also my legs got tired from trying to hold my knees out of the wind. In corners it felt very awkward, like if I were to low-side I'd land on my butt. I will rent a larger cruiser someday to see if it was a size problem. Imagine removing the back rest in your car & driving around with nothing to lean back on. That's what my cruiser felt like.

[@alantorchia6674]

Have you ridden a vrod? If not I'll meet you somewhere and you can ride mine! You'll love it

[@CycleCruza]

I'm a fan of the VRod, best bike Harley made. However, it is 600+ lbs. You feel the weight on a cruiser in tight turns and it sucks scraping pegs. However, the XDiavel was great in twisties and pretty light on its feet but you could feel the weight on tight turns.

[@alantorchia6674]

@@CycleCruza ya so I have the night rod special, not sure if you've compared the 2, but it's much lower so I dont really feel the weight TOO much, but I've only scraped the pegs a few times, wasn't really an issue. Maybe I'm missing out, I'll have to check out an mt07. I also tried the kawa z900 and hated it, so i hope its not comparable. I used to have a zr7s and loved it. Hopefully its like that

did u like the streetbob in the thumbnail I sit on one last week debating goin from my r6 to a new streetbob your thoughts???

Not my cup of tea but it may be yours. Test ride one. To me, I think naked bikes make better cruisers, even ADV bikes make better cruisers. But I know it is all about the looks and culture for many riders and that is ok too. Whatever makes a rider happy is all that matters.

[@blaineker4403]

How many cruisers have you ridden ? Let's have some reviews Honda, Triumph and Indian etc. Would be interesting to get your feedback.

[@CycleCruza]

I didn't need to ride all of them, I rode and owned the very best muscle cruiser on the current market, Ducati XDiavel 1260 S and I still like this MT-07 better. The XDiavel was powerful but you felt that weight making tight turns and I don't like feet forward pegs. I did ride a 2015 Harley Davidson breakout (As shown in the video) that felt slower than my former Chinese scooter. The sales guys said I needed to get a $7,000 stage 2 kit or some bs like that for better power. lol I've been on baggers and they feel like tanks to me, I don't understand the hype. I have love for all motorcycles but most cruisers are near the bottom of the list for me, just not my preference. No hate tho. We all have our own preferences.

[@dethzero8337]

I love Yamaha but own a street glide now. I ride long distances and my 09 fz06 killed me on long rides.

Mt07 is one of those just right kind of bikes, like an sv650 it’s economical and reliable but sporty and still good for a rip. I’m not a Yamaha guy I’m on team green but that’s a sweet ride dude, that full akra system will be sick I already know

[@CVPAPIMA]

The problem was you used a Harley for the comparison. So many other cruisers out there that blow HD stock for stock out the water. Kawasaki’s Vulcan 2000, Yamaha’s starline bikes with the 113. Suzuki’s m109, and technically Yamaha’s VMAX. Oh and last but not least triumphs infamous rocket 3.

[@tntman83]

Ideally I'd like to have both worlds to mix things up but in the meantime, naked/2020 Z900 has been everything. Smooth, comfortable and bang for buck!

[@ssmart5701]

Your Z is a way superior bike compared to the mt07, in every possible way. For whatever reason the Z is the most under rated naked for the price, I had a 22 and had a chance to buy my friends Ducati street fighter S, sold my Z for the Ducati and I really miss my Z. But you can’t pass a Ducati for 10k knowing he paid almost 25k. Good choice on your bike

It‘s a great bike for sure. I find the sitting position a bit odd, legs wide spread and too upright for me. But to each their own. And it’s a bit heavy too.

[@SavioureG]

LOL This video is a god send. I currently own a Yamaha Bolt C Spec, don't get me wrong I love the bike, it is sexy, nimble, has the best sound and its enjoyable to ride plus it is pretty much on par with Harley Davdisons sporters (but much cheaper and is built better too). HOWEVER, if my motorcycle is having difficulties smoking a Mazda CX30 or worse a freakin Vespa 300, that gives you a moment to pause. Cruisers are cool, BUT they are not thrilling at all. I tried my friend's Kawasaki 7zr and another friend's Kawasaki Z-750 and I realized how much I'm missing out. Thats why I decided I will sell my Bolt (with great regret mind you, if I had money and space I would have kept it) and will be jumping on a Honda CB1100 RS (or maybe a Yamaha XJR 1300 2017, have yet to decide). It would be nice to be able to keep up with other nakeds instead of merely beating Harleys and Scooters, it would be nice to have a bike that can actually do wheelies (plus I'll be honest, I don't have friends with Cruisers and most people who ride cruisers are old or not very friendly looking...)

[@reallyoldfart6540]

Went to the grocery store on my Grom this morning, that little bike would be my go-to for that even if I had an MT-07. If one could afford the big wheel I saw yesterday, which has one purpose, look pimp ugly, they could probably afford many bikes to do anything. Some things have a purpose, and heavy is way better on the highway.

[@RubyRider5]

I have a 2020 Triumph Rocket 3 GT its heavy on the scale but suprising light to ride and because of the weight im not getting blown away like your little MT-07 and talking about torque 163 ft-lbs is no joke so if you think cruiser suck go and try a Rocket 3 and talk about it after.Ride safe man

[@-mystical-16]

I prefer a naked sport bike for the reasons you mentioned. My weapon of choice is the bug eye Triumph Street Triple R. It’s so ugly is bad ass.

Nice! Looks don't matter when you throw a leg over it anyways. Naked bikes are awesome.

The only thing one could consider “ugly” on this bike are those headlights. But still much better than KTM. And yes, better than mt07. I like those round ones on the older Triumphs tho.

Cruisers don’t suck. It’s like a tool that does the job you need it to do. You wouldn’t use wire strippers to hammer nails. I’ve had baggers, naked, cruisers, and adventures bikes. I use to hate on HD, then my Dad passed and I bought the HD he owned. I love his HD more than any other bike. Sentimental value is key for me on the 2003 Dyna Wide Glide. Plus being 6’4” and a bad knee from shrapnel in Iraq. My riding has changed and I cannot ride with my knees bent anymore. I loved my Victory Highball, BMW 1200GS, BMW K1600B, BMW R1250GS, BMW R1250R. I just traded in my naked R1250R (more torque than your MT07) for the Wide Glide. I’m having a blast on the Wide Glide. I wish I could tell my Dad, I wanted to slow down my riding style, so I bought the slowest HD. It’s all good fun. Whatever floats your boat. 🤘

[@donaldlovejr.4857]

Riding is Riding. Ride what you love. Who cares what the name of the bike is. Just stay safe. 2 wheels down and keep the shiny side up. Ride for life

[@phineashenshaw]

There is a tool, application and a preference for everything/everyone or situation. No type of bike is good for everything. For example, you say get an MT07 to cruise with. I do not disagree. However if you do anything beside short commutes, a short road trip or bar hopping, the MT07 may not be the best bike. Also consider the condition of the rider. Bikes that are lower to the ground, like most cruiser bikes, may be more suited for people who are less limber. I recently met a woman with MS who wanted to ride on my motorcycle. I could have rode her on my Concours 14. But there is no way she could have gotten on and off of that bike. So I took her on my H-D Road Glide. Just as an example. I feel the same way about Trikes. I always advise people to get at least 2 different styles of motorcycles if they can afford it. Every bike is a tradeoff. Modern bikes are a lot more versatile than the ones when I started riding in the 80s. With some modification, you can just about adapt any bike to any usage you wish. But to say one type sucks, over another, is very subjective. Peace and respect @CycleCruza

Nice! Same here. I truly love my mt-07.

Life isn't all about practicality, sometimes it's ok to go out on a limb an try things that invoke emotion- excitement, desire, thrill of, etc. A life of only being practical sounds boring and life is too short for that. being practical is akin to being "realistic" which equals mediocre.
