@@musguelha14 yeah I stand corrected. I saw that once my new mt arrived. The brakes though look identical to the r1(sumitomo) set up on my other bike, are nowhere near as strong. One of the things don't see none of the reviewers mentioning for some reason unless comparing it to a Triumph or KTM R. . They suck. ,.The rear with the Nissin is very strong. I'm going change pads see if that fixes them. Lot of hoopla over this bike. Some deserved, some not.

I'm one of those who changed their mind about the headlight.. really liked the 2nd generation, which I think is still the among the best looking bikes out there due to the headlight, but this one has grown on me to the point where I actually do like the look of it. Can't wait to have my hands on one of these in a few months.

After 2 months of waiting I finally got my MT09 2021 and i am just loving it 🤩 comparing to my 2017 MT09, MT09 2021 is just brilliant and i am the happiest person alive on earth 🌎🥰

I am using 2021 MY09 for the past 3 months. Its an amazing machine so far. Good review 👍

Triples have always been my engine of choice, I had and have MVs and Triumphs. I did checked this bike out in years past but wasn't sold. The latest version has addressed some of my issues I had, (hate the rubber brake lines). Overall it seems like a good bike in a very competitive field. I still love the Streety and Brutale.

I went out today to check out some bikes I'm considering for my next bike. It's amazing how small differences in a bike can make a huge difference. I was keen on the Z900, but sat on one today and found I didn't really like the ergonomics, the slightly higher bars on the MT09 felt really good for me, even sitting still the MT09 just felt light, it fits me far better. it's now down to the MT09 and the XSR900. Looks like I'm buying a Yamaha lol

Best overall review of any motorcycle on KZread. Thank you, young man.

Great review 🙌 Thanks for featuring our screen protectors!

Great review on the MT-09. Just sold my Aprilia RSV4 and currently in the market for something new. Looks like I've found my next bike 💯

The exhaust note sounds similar to the old exhaust when you're on the throttle. But I don't hear the gurgles and bawbles when you're off the throttle? Who doesn't love a little extra torque! Nice bike!

Bought one back in May. Have the catless Akrapovic system on it. Needs to be tuned to really take advantage, but honestly, I love the damn thing

I personally like the front end. It’s unobtrusive but practical and the cyclops main beam is something unique. It looks a little bit sparse when viewing it from above (all the bolt heads make it look a little unfinished) but the look you get from the side, showing off the shape of the bars and forks, makes it look really edgy. If I hadn’t just got a new bike 9 months ago, I’d be testing one of these 👍

Revving the engine from idle doesn't do it justice. I test rode one recently and the noise it makes even at city speeds made me giggle the entire ride. The sound it makes is pure music to my ears. No need for an after-market exhaust. Everything is just buttery smooth: fueling, transmission, quick shifter. You can use the quick shifter and blipper even at lower RPMs (take that BMW). For the blipper to work correctly you do however have to completely roll off the throttle, otherwise it does not activate at all. This bike has come a long way from the 1st generation jerky wheelie monster and Yamaha has really dialed it all in perfectly now it seems. This would be my next bike if it would just look less ugly. I know, there's the XSR, but over the years the design has lost its appeal to me. It has not aged well and has started to look a bit goofy to me. I'm more leaning towards "authentic" neo-classic bikes like the Kawasaki Z900RS these days (which can be customized to make 130hp for less than $500) and has a similarly giggle inducing engine. Also, you sit really far forward under the fuel tank, at least that's how it feels like. It reminds me a bit about supermoto ergonomics. Very different from my SV where the ergonomics are more neutral.

Such a great producer of moto vids.

Gonna get this as my first bike was gonna be the MT 07 but just can't get this sound outa my head makes me happy

They should've covered the hole where the rectifier sits. It looks incomplete.

Looks terrific value for money, the looks are a bit quirky and will put some off though. Needs a screen to tidy up the front I would probably need to add a sports screen, really don't like the exposed regulator perhaps future bolt on options will cater for this. Likewise underslung exhaust ports also seem odd. Still definitely on my options list though, wonder how good a weekend mini weekend tourer this would be? Probably going to be either this or a Kwak 900RS.

Just watched this again, Bob. I am seriously considering one for use in northern Thailand. 120 miles to the nearest dealer, but that's not really a problem. I am probably the only person on here who really likes the look of this exhaust. Nice TFT, too. Not too big. And yes, I love the projector headlight.

Hopefully no one else likes it's looks so i get a good deal on the sp next year. Was thinking mt10 having always had litre bikes but the mt09 is now so good it just makes more sense.

I'm looking forward to what they do with the XSR. And the 700 version. I need to see an MT-09 in the flesh to know what I think about the headlight. I like the lack of plastics. The frame looks miles nicer than the old one. I like the look and sound of the exhaust.

Have 3k kms on mine already. Absolutely loving it. I also love the design and I think it’s better then previous models. Stock exhaust system is amazing, it’s just enough loud for me and even makes the “pop” noise on shifts. And man, up/down shifter is the best thing ever!!!

I like the risky direction they took with the looks, took a while but im ok with it now. While the trident looked great from the start... its starting to look more and more "typical". Theres so many other options for that sort of look now

Excellent review, thanks very much.

Love the package, just not the packaging.. When will you get a chance to ride the new XSR900?

Powerful and agile naked. I will definitely ad a steering damper. Headlight is definitely unique, but I like it... Finally, a modern display cluster that complements the 09 update. Having test ridden the Z900 and MT09, I will go for the Yamaha without a doubt. Personally, I think that the MT09/MT10 will become cult bikes just like the VW MK 1 Golf :) I ride a 2018 MT09 and love it. To be honest I prefer the second generation over the new models. What do you guys think? The 2 head lights looks great not to mention switching to high beam... Look, i am probably biased when it comes to the headlights but the new model is worth every penny.

There's another competitor to the MT-09....that would be the MT-09SP

I demoed it a couple weeks ago and it sounds bonkers for a stock exhaust.

As many comments state. Competitors for Price are Z900, KTM 790 / 890, BMW F900R , Aprilia Shiver 900. Its was lazy to forget at least 3 major brands in the video... A bit more expensive you got new Ducati monster 937 cc.

Hey MOTOBOB, how does MT-09 compare to MT-07 in terms on size? I have sat on '21 MT-07 but I didnt have the chance to sit on MT-09 and compare them.

I would argue that the MT09 is the best in its class, for fun, reliability, and for a day to day rider. Only the Duke 890R would match in for fun but it’s a shame KTM have there reliability issues. The street triple might be a better track bike although that remains to be proven, but on the road feels a little to grown up and sensible. Having said that, all three a very good and I wouldn’t say any are the wrong choice, I’d be happy with either one but the Yamaha would take my money for ease of ownership and fun value

Love the tech. It's the headlight that made me grab one of the last 2020 models in my state.

Here in the US, they are $9399, which sounds good, until..... Out the door price? $11,283.. Not all dealers charge as much on fees, but the one by me does.. It was a bit of a shock... Still haven't pulled the trigger yet, but I want one, so probably will. Just need to shop around a bit.

Is there a way to lower the handle height without getting into any metal work?

Loved my 2015 MT09 in grey, I don't think this paint scheme compares to it, that "sticker" on the swing arm looks cheap and nasty. Exhaust note is nice for a standard system, could learn to live with the headlamp as long as it gives off a decent beam.
