As I get older I'm finding I want less tech, a return to more simple machines, not basic or 'cheap' just more realistic.. It all costs money.

Much more informative than the longer "comparison" video on the main channel.
it's always fun to ride MT , wheelie when ever I want LOL
This is simplicity pure fun. I’m sold I think I’m going to buy this colour. Nice akra, and I’m happy. Great bike.
Your channel deserves way more subs :)
I do not like the look of Triumph motorcycles. I have test ridden them. It's just that I prefer the look of Japanese motorcycles. Yamaha hit a homerun with the MT-07 so it's not a surprise how popular a motorcycle it is. It's far from perfect but this also means it's not very expensive. The bottom line is the MT-07 is fun to ride.
My guess is that if you were buying one or the other by how steady and stable it feels in the middle of a nice set of S curves that one would be happier with the Trident and it's frame .I love the fueling on my 900 SS twin 's motor . NOt much up high but even pulling every time like your ST ... I hope you get a chance to give the new Guzzi Stone 7 ( 850 ) a go .I whole other kettle of fish :)
Nice video... Let just say that in some areas the price of the latest version is few hundred more than the older version.. is it worth it to spend the extra dollar?
I'm picking that the model you are riding is a tuned down version as all the full "HO" versions say it just wants to lift the front wheel and that just didn't seem to be happening or even commented on in this video.
As always a gr8 comparison
As an mt07 owner i can say that i loved every single second of riding it, so no regrets in buying it, it is very very fun bike to ride, but i really think i would have same feelings for triumph competitor 😏

I'm looking for a not too fast sportsbike, and the R7 is there on the options list next to the cbr650r and the (to be) zx4r. I just don't know if the engine is the right one for the bike. But I at the same time really love how my cb500f rides, only wished it had a 270°crank. Would probably even swap it for a new cbr if they offered it with that engine.
You don't by chance have a long term review on the beeline, gps thing do you?
I fell more support after watching this , I love my MT07😊
Thanks for sharing the exhaust suggestions! This is my first new bike and I’m guessing those exhausts can’t be installed while maintaining the warranty?

@@lifeofbeym4681 I've got a 2018 MT-07 with a full Termignoni system (which sounds awesome BTW) and that didn't void the warranty when I had to get the starter switch replaced. Maybe it's changed since then. As Bob said, check just in case. This is the system if you wanted to see it. www.motorcycleperformancestore.co.uk/Termignoni_Full_System_Black_Edition__Carbon_Silencer_Yamaha_MT07_201319--product--16899.html
anyone know what that white arrow thing on the left side of the bars is?
I think I'd prefer riding the MT but definitely prefer the looks of the trident. I'd be more interested in the XSR, but that yamaha engine is such an eyesore! I'm sure they would have sold more if they'd just taken a bit more pride in its cosmetics!
I think I’m sold, switching from old Honda Hornet cb600f to MT07, I’ve been wondering if the MT07 will be enough but after your video I think I will order one.

Hi Bob, I've read quite a few times on the internet that the trident is a different bike after it break in period and that the throttle response is completely different etc, and possibly after the first service or gets a remap. Can you tell me if this is the case. Thanks Bob 👍
@Daniel-dj7fh
Жыл бұрын
It probably doesn't get a remap. Maybe it's just the people riding it openly since you shouldn't rev too high when breaking the bike in.
The trident seams very boring compared to the MT07. If you want some excitement riding a bike, the Yamaha has it nailed
For the people who are willing to buy a mt07. Do it!! I just bought mine and Its just so much fun and I can’t stop smiling on it! Hahah

Once I got my full licence, I'm definitely testing the R7
When I spent a couple of days on the MT, I found the snatchy throttle a pain to get on with round town. Fun in the Sussex back roads, but keeping it smooth when urban riding was a chore. I’m short with stubby fingers though - an adjustable clutch lever would have helped (I’ve got the street triple R adjustable lever on my Trident - but even without I think the MT loses out for it’s lack of about town manners).
What helmet is that
What's the round thingy on the left part of the handlebar?

Same I’m going back and forth! The thing for me is that I feel more emotionally connected to the MT-07 and the sound with an exhaust and tune. I think the Trident is sexier and smoother and overall a ‘better’ bike, but I’m more attracted to the MT-07 and that means I should probably just go for it.

The view from the cockpit is poor compared to the Trident, that front end is woeful too. Its a win for the Trident.
