Yamaha MT 10 Review 2019

[@simianrogue]

I absolutely love the headlight arrangement and design - I know some will hate it, but that 'Transformer' look is rather mean and high-tech looking.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Looks awesome in black I think

[@mjwhite5811]

I have the 2017 and I freaking love it. It's just a fun motorcycle. I traded my R-1 in for it and I have no regrets.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

I've not had a go on the R1 yet, what do you prefer about the mt10 having owned both?

[@MZ-bl6wg]

MJ White agreed 100%!!!! I had an R1M before it but a back injury had me trying the supernakeds . Got mine at launch in2017 for a steal!! In the us MSRP was $12,999,..I got mine a week after launch out of California for $9,200 OUT THE DOOR! No dealer fees, set up fees, doc fees, any of that, the dealer ordered 12 of them for the Launch ;..and had no orders prior and no purchases a week after ,..9 of those were in the grey/fleur combo so they dumped 2 of them at $9200;..I found it on cycletrader ; cheapest one in the US, had I been thinking I should have bought both lol and sold one. Shipped it to utah decat the exhaust and loved it for 2 years. By far the most fun bike I've ever owned! Sold for a divorce ; but getting another one I loved it so much! That crossplane 4 decated is amazing!

[@MZ-bl6wg]

TommyBarnezTV I know you didn't ask me but saw he hasn't responded, so thought I would. I had an R1M onenof the first in America and really loved it, but for me personally,..comfortability was huge! The R1 in 2015 they changed the ergos to nearly identical to Yamahas MotoGP bikes,..they set it up as a race bike knowing they were releasing a steeet bike (MT10) in a year so they dedicated the R1 to a sport bike feel. It's known as the least comfortable bike out there for body position. You don't want to put miles on it I'll say that much. I rode mine 1,100 miles on a trip and worst decision ever! 🙂 the MT10 is upright, has clipons, slightly lower pegs. I broke my back in 6 places in a Ducati accident and couldn't ride my R1 for more than 45 Minutes without pain. My MT10 I can ride literally all day touring with no pain at all!! No wrist pain, no neck pain. -I also love the crossplane 4 but like it much better in MT10 format;..it has less hp,..but actually MoRE torque than the R1 and very lower in the rev range which that with the lower gearing, lower max rpm means you can use the power any time any gear, right out of the hole there's so much torque ,..the R1 you don't get it until it's wrapped WAY up and with the long gearing on the R1 , to get into the power you're reving itnout and doing 100mph . I love the cruise control on the MT10 as well. It has a much larger ari intake which growls which is cool, I love the looks of both , but have become more a Supernaked fan looks wise since owning and love the transformer look, kind of military tech spec looking. The wide bars make it feel more nimble and controlable, the grips are much larger diameter and feels much better than skinny pencils of the R1 and other bikes. The MT10 also has the quickest 0-60mph of any production motorcycle on earth (in 2017) of 2.5 seconds,..quicker than a superduke and Tuono that have 15 more hp. Quicker than the R1 or any sport bike and it jsut the gearing, tune , torque etc . Jsut a much much more fun bike to ride in my opinion. I commuted on mine every day for 2 years and still wanted to go out after work riding and on the weekends. My daughters looooved to be picked up on the bike form school lol. Cool dad! With passengers it's much more comfortable where they aren't laying out you, jsut sitting up behind you . The wheelbase is shorter than the R1 too which again makes it more nimble and wheelie happy! It's thenbest of the R1 but confortable and the most fun bike ive ever owned! I've had 13 now ; 12 supersports from R1M, to Ducatis , to cbr1000rr's to 600rr, r6, etc etc; and this bike was so good that I'm buying another one. I sold it for a divorce after 2 years and will be the first bike I've bought a 2nd one of. Usually I like to try new bikes but no reason to. ZERO reliability issues. No problems no recals in 2 years, engine got even better and more powerful over time. I did a decat which makes it sound like a MotoGP bike, best mod I did, then had the ECU retuned/flashed, and a race filter; makes 2more hp than a superduke when done. Some complain of the brakes, if you put EBC pads makes a world of difference . That's all jsut my 2 cents but man I miss that bike!! If it's also 1/4th the cost to insure verses an R1, people love the looks on the street , I'd get older Harley Davidson biker gangster guys giving me thumbs up, to kids to girls to moms ,..all around. 🙂👍👍

[@6tdegrees]

We had a lot of fun reviewing this bike. It’s a brutal machine, although I must say it needs refinement on fuel consumption... it loves a drink. Personally the Cb1000r was a more practical and well priced machine out of the majority 1000cc naked class bikes. None the less, good review mate 👍

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Cheers mate, yeah I think I was on fumes when I got back to the dealer, hadn't noticed how quick the fuel went down 😂 Someone commented saying the fuel consumption gets better when the engine is broken in. I haven't ridden the CB1000R yet but was in the Honda dealer earlier talking bikes and it is on the list to review.

[@alanedwards3180]

The Hondas more practical and boring !!! Will never put a smile on your face like this does .

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Recently reviewed the CB1000R... big thanks for recommending it as it was awesome!

[@kpk500]

Great review, I've got the SP version of the MT10, (same engine & performance) now I assume the bike that you were riding was new, not done many miles. My experience is that when they have covered 4 to 5 thousand miles, the fuel economy improves and that engine gets even better. I've ridden across France & Germany on mine and with the cruise control on the MT10 is pretty good at touring too.

[@guiliobarresi1808]

was thinking about this bike a lot but how many miles out of a tank can you get if riding tidy, the one i took out for a test nearly ran out at about 100 miles but that was not riding tidy lol

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Nice, good to know! Completely forgot to mention cruise control 😂

@@guiliobarresi1808 Haha, that's the sign of a good test ride...

[@kpk500]

@@guiliobarresi1808 On my daily trip to work, i'm in the UK, (30 miles each way) and riding "tidy" the low level warning light comes on at around 120 miles. When touring and the bike is loaded with camping gear I usually stop to refuel / drink some water after the Trip meter indicates 100 miles, there is always plenty of fuel left at that point.

[@wascarg5341]

I'm thinking about trading my tuono for this bike No sure its going to be as powerful but should be good enough.

[@darylcadman2863]

Bloody hell.... Finally gets it in sports mode and doesn't give it abit!! The whole review left me wanting.

[@johnroberts6836]

Three of us with GS's now own MT 10's as once ridden we were hooked. The usable power makes it so flexible.....awesome. 👍

[@TommyBarnezTV]

To replace the GS or as something more fun for the weekend?

[@hankgs]

I have had 6 BMW GS' and you are correct :) ! This will be my next bike- The ergos are perfect and the power is amazing and linear--- Way better (to me) than the BMW s1000XR...

[@JRockettAudio]

Everyone goes to the "Mental" thing on the MT10 right out of the gate. It is fast but in its class it is not anything remarkable as far as power. I test rode one the other day and I was blown away at its refinement, balance, comfort, light weight and smoothness. This is one of the few bikes I have been on that I immediately loved. Yes it is fast but it is so well balanced and soulful to ride. I have a Super Duke GT and I am very inclined to trade it in on an MT10.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Yeah for me it was the first of its class that I had ridden. I took the superduke 1290r out recently which scared the hell out of me. I'd ride the MT10 again, will be a while before I jump on the superduke 😂

[@chrisvantassel8867]

The super duke is fast but get yourself a spin on a VMAX and suddenly these naked bikes get put into perspective. Plus the max is sooo smooth and refined. I rode my GT today and then hopped on the VMAX..... the GT seemed slow

Thanks for taking the time the review, I have the SP and absolutely love it👍

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Nice! How do you find the SP compared to the standard?

[@philliprobertlawman2232]

Hey Tommy, the standard is pretty much the same, aside the TFT, and semi active suspension, engine on both are the same as is chassis, they are epic rides whichever you choose, the standard is a great price too 😊

[@TommyBarnezTV]

@@philliprobertlawman2232 ah I didnt realise SP came with a TFT thought it was just the suspension upgrade. Ohlins at the back? Do you notice much of a difference in the ride with the suspension or was your decision more based on the screen? TFT screen would be nice on this I think

[@philliprobertlawman2232]

My decision was mainly the ohlins, the TFT I could take it or leave it, but now I wouldn't be without it, the rear shock is semi active as well and the SP paint is pretty special too, same as the R1M, back to back, you probably would be hard pressed to notice the suspension difference at normal speeds, it's when you're cracking on they come into their own 😂

TommyBarnezTV best mod I ever did on the MT10 was jsut a $140 decat y-pipe. If you go to "the muscle biker" motovloggers channel, he bought my MT10 , and his first 2 videos on it he does some sound fly bys in the canyons if you want to hear it,..it's amazing!! Sounds sver very MotoGP! The end can it titanium and a larger diameter internal pipe than. Almost aftermarket slip ins so no reason to replace. The cat weighs 26 lbs as well so huge weigh shedding by removing it. Save $1,300 jsut doing a ypipe and get the same sound. 🙂

Fast, surprisingly comfy for a 6-footer, turned me into a hooligan within 10 seconds. Felt lighter than the ST with far nicer suspension. Nutter mode! For me, a better bike than the Triumph, apart from the noise. Triples rule the airwaves! Thanks to Kevin at Mitchell's. Great welcome, great service.

Joe Head you won't be disappointed!!! I went from a R1M to MT10 in '17, BEST bike I've ever owned, most fun too! Amazing at the track as well! Tel you best money I spent was $140 on a decat ypipe ! The bike sounds MotoGP for sure when done , first cheap, sheds 26 lbs too! The cat is sooo heavy!! Doesn't require a reflash either but NelsTune can reflash the ECU , it's $250, you easily pull it out and mail it to him he sends it back. Add a race filter and all 3 Put you at 182hp! I added the grey matching shorty levers too, shogun sliders and spindles, and was done. Telling u tho, put a ypipe on,..danmoto makes one that allows you to still use the Factory end can which is titanium so don't replace it. The ypipe alone will transform the bike! You can install it yourself in 20 minutes and take it back off if you choose. "The Muscle Biker" bought my MT10 and posted some uploads of the sound of it decated after buying it from me. You'll see me in the video signing papers and then he runs it. Check it out if interested in MotoGP sound. 👍

With ALL FZ/MT models get a good pipe and ECU flash to match the pipe remove factory limiters etc., SUPER MENTAL. Don't worry the Yamaha crossplane is tough as nails, Yamaha expects that a lot of their customers are going to flash.

Great review TBTV! Am myself on an MT09 daily driving a mix of city lane-splitting traffic and highways and it gets the job done with a grin all the time esp. when the wrist twitches a bit! Also saw your reviews of the MT10 and Z1000SX and would very much appreciate your thoughts on those 2 as upgrade options to the 09. Same use, daily driving on a mix of highway and city slicking. Am rather rather partial to the 10 and that X-plane engine character and the whole MT playfulness but I started on an R25 so that Z1000SX upright sport riding/touring look is also doing it for me. Looking forward to your reply thanks!

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Thanks! Interestingly I am thinking about new bikes for next year at the moment and the z1000sx has popped in my mind a bit. I found the mt10 felt a bit too mental to me. I've ridden more powerful bikes, 1290gt for example which felt awesome. Saying that I really like the z1000sx however when I think about it I dont get massively excited. I'm also wanting some tech like cruise control as spend a fair amount of time at motorway speed. Therefore the bike I'm thinking quite seriously about at the moment is the h2 sx se. I've not ridden one yet but reading about it makes me think it could be a good option. If you want mental, mt10 If you want more relaxed but looking awesome z1000sx If you want mental but some comfort 1290gt If you want some mental, some comfort, some tech and a seriously hot machine to look at, h2 sx se :) That's my thinking at the moment. Though ride them all and see what feels good to you. I wasnt overly keen on the mt09 though that may have been because I rode a street triple rs before it which I loved and this mt10 after it so the mt09 kinda got lost in my mind a bit.

[@suhermansadelan7043]

@@TommyBarnezTV thanks very much for replying. Interestingly I did test ride the Striple 765 S before the 09. Such a together package...but the 09's engine character just did it for me.

Thanks, and sucks about your ZX10R 🙁

[@cosmiccharlie8294]

The mass centralization on that bike is stunning.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Yeah I love that about the look too

[@andy_xtr3861]

Great Sunday blaster bike...or commuter if your easy on gas😁. BMW S1000XR review next please... Its my dream bike. Cheers tommy

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Cheers mate! Will see how quick I can get on an S1000XR though dont have a relationship with a BMW dealer currently.

[@alanedwards3180]

My mates just got rid of his bmw s1000 and bought an mt10 .after riding another of our mates it was a done deal.he much preferred the riding position of the mt with being 6ft +

[@NapoleonDeanomight]

I think I’ll need to hone my skills to be able to handle this one.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

You need to get back into biking mate ;)

[@MZ-bl6wg]

NapoleonDeanomight lol I'd had 12 sportbikes ending in an R1M before buying mine and I still needed to hone mine lol. The unintentional power wheelies took some getting used to but ended up being SO much fun!! I ended up being quicker around the track TO than my R1M which is crazy to me. My MT10 was not STOCK though but still.

[@MZ-bl6wg]

Please tell you you tried the most intense throttle setting, it's unbelievable!!!

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Yeah had a go, scared me 😂

[@carlgill5946]

Ever since this bike came out I've wanted one so so so bad omg I want one!!!!!!! I went out and bought a 2017 zx10r and let me tell you it's a bad to the bone beast of a bike but I'm tired of being in pain while riding it and I need a naked style bike I'm 39 yrs old and I think I'm almost an old man....lol. The one and only gripe I'm having with the MT-10 is it looks to darn small for me, is this true how do you feel on it? I'm 6'2 270lbs and I ride my bike just fine but it is cramped a bit, is the MT-10 that way?

[@TommyBarnezTV]

I'm 6ft and about 200lbs ish. For me it doesn't feel small. The engine and tank feels quite big underneath you. Being upright keeps it comfortable and I could imagine going a few hours on it without any problems. With the seat you are also able to find a good spot. I'd say definitely give one a test ride.

[@markbeattie221]

Class bike mate 👏

Loooooove the transformers look

Stunning looking bike

I'm 15 and I got test ride a Mt-09 and I was only in B Mode but damn was it fast.

MT stands for MENTAL lol

[@neilwiddison6529]

I would love this bike. But cannot afford one have to stick with my good old vfr750

[@TommyBarnezTV]

As long as there is one bike in your life then life is good :D

[@blutomindpretzel263]

What’s with the squiggly lines on the road?

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Depends where, generally means no overtaking/parking

[@ertai222]

It's such a cool looking bike

[@dale-fi1fi]

cant choose between the mt09 or mt10 they are both amazing

[@krisby55]

As soon as you test ride the MT10, you will never consider the MT09 again haha

[@dale-fi1fi]

just the price for mt10

[@lucyferina]

dale 8754 xi couldn't either so I bought both....

[@MZ-bl6wg]

dale 8754 ride both you will go MT10! 👌

[@MZ-bl6wg]

krisby55 so true, lol it tried both,..no brainer and I ended up getting mine at launch for the cost of the mt09! 👌. Dealer ordered 12 , nine in grey /fleur and a week after launch had yet to sell one SO listed 2 of the grey at $9,200, new no dealer fees! I was out the door and shipped to utah for $9,350!!! Crazy! Cheapest one in the country. MSRP was $12,999. Regret selling after 2 years becaue I'll never find a deal like that again new.

[@amphibdriver1]

Can you describe how the quick shifter works?

[@TommyBarnezTV]

I can't describe mechanically how one works however to use one you just kick up a gear without having to release throttle and without having to engage the clutch.

[@bridger911]

2019 and they still have the old FZ-09 taillight

[@dale-fi1fi]

ino that's annoying another thing you have to pay for to change

[@MZ-bl6wg]

The Tatted Dad they did that becaue the entire idea of the MT10 is an inexpensive Supernaked, it's $4,000 less than the R1 and very much so derived from the R1,..they had to cut the price out of it somewhere . So using parts bin parts like the tail light , which is LeD so it's good with me.

[@msrcracing8387]

Great review thanks

[@myaccount6905]

I think he was enjoying that ride...

[@tonygriffiths2485]

Nice review, also music at the end, Z Top ?

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Thanks! It's actually a track I found on epidemenic sound. Epidemic sound provide music for KZbin videos so very few general release tunes. This is a tune called 'it's not love' but just the instrumental start to it. If you wanted to hear the full tune in one of my vids I use it in the wild camping video I did about 9minutes 30 in i think.

[@175yam1]

Love it when your rideing and laughing,, great lol, that's what it's all about, fun fun fun,,, smiles per miles,,

[@jonw4595]

great review. you should take the superduke 1290 for a spin, it'll knock your socks off lol.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Haha I have.... 1290r scared me too much 😂 though the 1290gt was much better

[@sebastiandalessandro5745]

You took all the fun out of the video by blurring out the speed. I really would've liked to see what that machine is capable of.

[@TatsByTaco]

It’s essentially a sprocketed, naked r1. You can imagine how nuts it is

[@DaleClark1000]

I see you blurred out the instrument panel at speed - what's with that?

[@notlihcferolino9862]

sir which bike has more engine temp mt10 or cb1000r?

[@Banditmanuk]

I've had mine well over 3 years. Fantastic bike that I've just ridden around the Picos mountains in Spain. Incredible performance, comfort and mine has been totally reliable over 22,000 miles. I'm not a nutter by the way! Aging former hooligan better describes me. 3 year review on my channel should you be interested. Nice review subbed.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Nice! I've got a mate riding around the Picos mountains at the moment on a gs that I'm getting Facebook updates on. Hoping to get out there at some point. Will check out the 3 year review

[@Banditmanuk]

@@TommyBarnezTV I've tried to avoid the wealthy middle aged man's weapon of choice, the GS! Great bikes no doubt but don't want to be in the club.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

@@Banditmanuk haha I have exactly the same views, too many on the road

[@D-Squared]

Love the blurred out speedo on freeway lmao

[@MZ-bl6wg]

Is that color white or a really really light grey? And is it red or orange? It's amazing though!!!

[@lokest99]

Its very light matte gray, and the wheel color is more neon red/orange

[@SmokinZen]

Beautiful bike

[@pudsboi5203]

I test rode this exact bike from lagunas last week, its nice and quick. Still can't decide between this and the 09sp though

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Small world! Nice! I'd think the MT10? The price difference is worth it in my eyes and I know if I was making the same decision and went the 09sp I'd regret not getting the 10

[@pudsboi5203]

I was actually quicker round the lanes on the 09.. and I like the hooligan factor (wheelies) . The 10 was outright faster straight. Both great

[@TommyBarnezTV]

@@pudsboi5203 Haha maybe the 09 then, tough decision..

[@MZ-bl6wg]

TommyBarnezTV you are dead on! Anyone will regret it becaue of the power. You're talking over 50hp less in the 09.

[@MZ-bl6wg]

puds boi the MT10 has the quickest 0-60mph of any production motorcycle on earth,..soenthing to think about. 2.5 seconds . Sounds better too.

[@daniellang6112]

Did he mention it is mental?

[@vali69]

This is an awesome bike... i would love to own one as a daily driver one day! Also just out of curiosity does someone know the diffrence between the normal and the sp version besided the paintjob?

[@TommyBarnezTV]

I believe its ohlins suspension upgrade at the back and also a TFT screen

[@EyeOfMaat]

It's electronic ohlins front and back, then the TFT colour screen

[@Paulie1978100]

Subbed good videos 👊🏼

[@missmariestories]

Looks like KTM ORANGE mags?

[@PrimeMatt]

Hmmm, so I've learned that it is quick. Not much of a review really. Is it better than the previous one, should I buy a 2019 over a 2017? That's the stuff I'd be far more interested in knowing.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Havent ridden a 2017 so cant compare. In terms of what you should buy I'd be reluctant to trust a review that tells you that. Ride em both, check out the second hand market and new and determine what's best for you.

[@dry509]

Would you spend your own money on this bike..if not why not? Thanks.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Personally not for me. I test road the super duke gt video recently, vid to go up this week. I preferred that.

[@catapfract]

Look awesome

[@shapalandoify]

So does the 2019 have road mode and sport mode? My 2017 is modes 1 2 3

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Yeah modes 1 2 and 3 on the 2019. I tried out the standard and then the 'sportier' mode. Off the top of my head it was 1 and 2. Didnt try out the other mode which I would probably just think of as rain mode.

[@harryviking6347]

I go for the MT 09...the 10 is a bit wild!

[@TommyBarnezTV]

Haha yeah just a bit

[@ertai222]

Why do your roads there have weird zig zag? What does it mean? We don't have that in Ontario.

[@TommyBarnezTV]

No parking or overtaking. Usually near schools or approaching junctions

[@lilmidgey6927]

looks like a mini trasnformer gorgeous af :D i love it hopefully one day getting an mt07 since a2 :/ :D

Nice! I'm actually gonna be reviewing an MT07 in coming weeks. Really solid bike from what I hear

[@lilmidgey6927]

@@TommyBarnezTV cant wait :D

[@Edgunsuk]

are you planning on reviewing all bikes like this ? ie the best bikes for wheelies in existence and you dont wheelie it ? if so i will just stick to lamb chops reviews im 51 and have had that up at least once on a review i was publishing , what you did was ride it like my dad for 20 mins lol

[@TommyBarnezTV]

If I was seriously good at wheelies I would be tempted however 2 factors would probably still prevent me from putting that in a review. Firstly it could damage relationships with dealers meaning no more bikes for reviews and secondly its classed as dangerous driving by police so why give them that evidence? Nothing against people that do it in reviews just not something for me. Maybe on a track but not the roads I test on 😎
