I test rode one today and put a deposit down for the sp. Amazing!

Test rode one yesterday and have bought it in the same colour (Cyan) that Mark had. Really fun bike which has a superb engine and handles very well. Could have gone for the SP version, but for an average rider like me, the standard bike is more than adequate.

I just bought a gen3 SP. The CP3 engine is absolutely brilliant. I put a steering damper on mine, much to most of the forums dismay. But for me it tightens up the front end a bit as its very light and now it still agile but a bit more compliant and surefooted.

I've got the XSR900 2023, and the CP3 is ridiculously fun! Great review!

You can always improve on two out of three.

I have a 2019 mt09sp. I think it might be time to update it. But the standard model or the sp is the question. The sp will be over 20K Australian which is the price of a street triple rs. The standard model is over 2k cheaper. Worth the extra $? It was worth it buying the sp in 2020, but I also bought it on sale as the gen 3 were about to arrive.

Great review Mark. These Yamaha MT series still out perform all the rest, under the fun factor, and the latest iterations are even more refined. When you review the latest MT 10, I would love to hear your comparison views and impressions between those two bikes. Cheers, Gord

A couple of observations from your review, there have been a number of engine component changes as well as the frame has been tweaked to add strength of flex where required. The front visor isn’t standard and neither are the tank protectors. I have a SP on order. My only gripe with the bike is the use of the rubber brake lines, even on the SP.

Great review as always, as another Speed T 1050RS owner (new from 2018), i would value your thoughts on reasons to own this (or maybe the MT-09SP) instead of the 1050RS and reasons not to swap. In considering something a little lighter and more maneuverable at low speeds i have tried the 765RS and the new Speed T 1200, however my heart is still so much in love with the 1050RS. For reference i also have an ADV350.

seems a great machine, and i wouldn't rule out getting one in future, but i just don't like coloured wheels, IMHO they look tasteless and gimmicy. when i sat on a bike in a showroom with some last year, the wife who knows less about motorbikes than i do laughed, said i needed to act my age (60's), and asked me if i really wanted to be seen on something coloured like a kids toy. i assume the colour is an option as i like the turquoise flash on the tank, but suppose at the end of the day it's a matter of taste.

Ciao hai trovato qualche difetto se lo si vuole trovare in questo nuovo modello?bel video complimenti 👍

the lively front end is part of why i didn't like mine. (2021 gen). now on a '23 Hayabusa the front end is solid as ever. Night and day differences lol. Like i get people like wheelies, but i want the front wheel of the deathtrap im riding to at least feel like it's going to stay pointing straight and on the ground. The way you jiggled the handlebars around at 14:18 gave me memories of mine and how i could jiggle the bars at high speed. just felt unnerving. interesting that the new model is still an MT09 at heart lol.
