MT is big, fat and heavy, stable on the highway and is a straight line bike. Duke is comfy enough to daily but is a waaaaay more fun bike to rip on. Pretty different bikes.

I’m not sure if “way more reliable” is accurate. KTM’s of today do not have the reliability issues of the past and are approaching Japanese levels. When comparing the Mt09 sp there is an assumption that the owner would be concerned about performance. And in performance the MT is not comparable. It’s like putting fancy suspension on a Toyota Camry, at the end of the day a Camry is not a performance car. Wrong dimensions, geometry and is too heavy just like the MT. Still fun but not when compared to something designed to perform. Comfort was never the design intention, Duke is out of the box performer. Just ride the two back to back, it’s obvious.

Honestly my Ninja 650 was perfect. (ER-6F). It was comfortable had that sporty look and since it’s practically the same as the ER-6N i’d argue it’s a naked bike that just got the fairing treatment. It’s sporty and confortable for a daily commute. And it’s incredibly great for touring as well wich is in my experience rare. There’s not just many bikes that let you tour that comfortably of that class. There just isn’t. But since the ER-6F has fairings i’ll give it to the ER-6N cause that is the true naked variant of it despite being literally the same exact bike with less fairings. It’s a highly underrated beast of a motorcycle that just works. I have never experienced a better all around type of bike wich simply makes it a brilliant choice no matter what category you’re looking at. As for the Yamaha MT series, that is easily amongst the worst bike i’ve ever ridden. I mean yes it performs better than the Honda CB series, but the quality and comfort is just non-existent. If you can’t ride confortably then enjoying the ride easily becomes a lot more difficult. It sucks, but it is the truth and it needed to be said. Either way i have now taken a step in a different direction and i’m now a happy owner of a GL 1800 GoldWing.

I know it's more of the upper weight class (being a 1000cc boi), but the old yamaha FZ1 is an awesome bike as a naked bike. I know the terminology on what defines an FZ1 goes everywhere (especially in North America lacking the N variant), but I live in Canada and I have an FZ1 converted into the euro style naked bike, and I love it. I don't have alot of expierence on other bikes (it's my second bike), but my father does and he's ridden MT09s, Mt07s, Z900s and much more, and he thoroughly enjoys the bike too. Awesome inline 4 sound, 998ccs with 150hp stock, and can make significantly more simply by tuning and ditching that factory exhaust (saves like 20 pounds aswell lol). The seating position is slightly more aggressive, but very comfortable and easy to ride on. The seat definitely needs to be changed from factory for long distance riding, and you can't keep the stock generator because they yknow blow up. Other than that, really reliable genesis 5 valve (gen 2 bikes, 06-14) and really fun bike and I've loved every minute riding it. I love my gen 2 and I doubt I'll ever sell the bike

The Suzuki is best for the dollars per horsepower, but how does it feel when sitting on it, how far is the dealer for any warranty work, do you like how it looks, are you going to be riding curvy roads at 60 mph or straight roads at 75 mph more often. Different strokes for different folks. I ride a 2002 V twin and a 2008 inline 4, nice to have two that are very different. Lots of money saved every year after the loans were paid off.

The problem with including the Ducatis and Triumph Speed Triples in the mix is that you are entering a completely different price bracket from the Japanese entrants....they had better be the best given the significant premium paid for them....of course this speaks well for the MT-09....I find that old guys like me value the linear aspects of bikes like the Z900 and F900R over the quirky hooligan aspects of the MT-09, however it is an awesome bike.

You need to do a review on the new 765 Street Tripple easily the best naked bike I’ve ever ridden
@vizualjockey4419 Жыл бұрын
I can see how you come away thinking the Street Triple is too serious, especially given the price, but I certainly think it’s better than the 890 duke which is, yes arguably more fun, but is also a very serious bike. I appreciate your insight and measured opinion and not simply choosing the fastest machine as the “best”. I’d have to disagree as I’d put the mt09 below my Street Triple as I cross shopped them coming from am fz07 and didn’t love the motard seating position of the Yamaha. Given what I do with it, it didn’t make sense to be sitting up perfectly straight. Solid video though, hopefully I can ride a tuono one of these days!
@dr1143 Жыл бұрын
Same here. Coming from FZ-07, I really lusted after Tuono 660. Then I test rode both the Street Triple RS and the Tuono 660 back to back and I am not in love with Tuono any more. Street Triple handles so much better, it's not even close. And I hate the fully upright position on MT-09 - the bars are set so high and due to the tank shape, its not clear if it could be fixed with clipons.
@vizualjockey4419 Жыл бұрын
@@dr1143 Adding clip-ons to a naked bike doesn't always make sense because the seating position and rear-set placement becomes a point on contention. The low peg height makes for a relaxed seating position. On my STRS, the pegs are set somewhere in between a upright naked and a sport bike making it a bit of a compromise but still quite comfortable for me. And being leaned over enough to fight wind at 80mph on the freeway is nice. And the seat has a lot of room to choke up on the tank if I'm in town between stoplights. That along with the premium facets makes it a dream for daily rides and weekend rips alike. Coming from the budget fz/mt series of bikes, this feels like a more sophisticated machine which is what I was looking for without the Ducati price tag.

Not sure if the tuono is classed as 3rd and the mt09/SP 2nd and 1st but you decide which is 1st and 2nd so they're not 1st and 2nd, they're 1st and 1st.5 so the tuono is 2nd and there is no 3rd?

Got a XSR900 here. Tons of fun and great aesthetics. CB650R handles really odd to me and is way less sharp comparing to the XSR (might have something to do with oem tire tho). The Taiwan/China version CB650R is also tuned down a lot and has become very boring. I have to say this ranking is quiet accurate but the Cb650r really disappointed me a lot..

Aches to see my Street Triple - that I love to bits - at #10, but I get the logic. For the sake of completeness, the list misses BMW F900R (IMO ranks between Suzuki GSXS 750 and Triumph Trident), Duke 790 (Somewhere between Street Triple and Streetfighter), MV Agusta Dragster 800 RR, MV Agusta Brutale. Guess 2023 will add GSX-8S and Honda Hornet 750. And you realize what a competitive field this is.
