Coming from a CBR600RR and getting a 2017 FZ09, I was extremely happy. It takes some getting used to. Its defiantly a very different ride in the seating (more comfy on the FZ09) allowing for longer riding, no painful wrists or back. But the engine...shes amazing.

I love my 2014 but the front suspension is crap. Not quite so bad since I tightened up the preload and turned the damping all the way in but still bad enough that I bought a set of fork cartridges with rebound and compression damping. Now just to find time to put them in when I don't want to be riding it lol. I will say that I would definitely not recommend it for a beginner or anyone that hasn't studied the physics involved in motorcycles, high HP motorcycles in particular. This thing could easily high-side you if you get aggressive coming out of corners.

People need prioritize there buying decision, if you want super sport suspension then buy a super sport , don’t ask a street bike to be a super sport unless your willing to invest some time and money! Which BTW if you invest in proper SS suspension and a remap and a pipe and a windscreen your still cheaper than a stock R6 or R1!

Very informative but I would 100% suggest more filming of the bike while talking and less selfie mode. If someone watched this and had never seen a MT09 before, they still don’t know what it looks like without your face there...... no offense

2019 has a new rear shock upgrade! It has last Years XSR 900 rear shock! Yamaha stated that this is a better shock and they went with it on there new MT models!

This is according to Yamaha everybody assumes that they were running the same shocks! They are this year! From what it sounds like in theory Yamaha was experimenting with rear shock designs and decided the XSR shock was a better one from 2018! This Suspension is definitely stronger and tighter on the 19! Compared to what everybody’s been saying anyways about them! I am 220 and it works good even in factory settings! The motor the motor the motor oh my God the motor and the transmission! Mechanical porn engineering masterpiece Words to describe it’s acceleration stupid ,insane ,crazy ,dumb The way the transmission sounds shifting in the gears! Why I call it mechanical porn! Don’t forget to put on your quick shifter for seamless smooth up shifts for your pleasure! 👍😂😍

But the electronics of this bike are not good. My gear indicator is gone after 1 month. I bought the bike new. Loud engine noise. Gear change is difficult and tight. Engine is good.
