Yamaha MT-09 Next-generation design and styling - Pure, bare and beautiful – the new-generation MT design leads the Hyper Naked line into the new decade. Minimalist ‘coverless’ styling dispenses with unnecessary bodywork and uses only the frame and structural components to express lightness and agility – while the Crystal Graphite frame finish accentuates the functional beauty of mechanical parts.

The original MT-09 was a totally new kind of Japanese machine that brought real excitement and pure emotion back to the motorcycle world. It inspired over 50,000 European riders to be a part of the growing Hyper Naked movement. Give in to the power of the MT-09 and join the Dark Side of the Japan. Its large-capacity 890cc EU5-compliant CP3 engine pushes out high levels of torque at low rpm, giving you an explosive acceleration and stronger road-focused performance. A high-tech 6-axis IMU governs the best-in-class electronic rider aids, to give you ultimate control. Moreover, the QSS enables you to change gear very quickly, while making downshifts more stable. For razor sharp handling, the MT-09 features a compact aluminium chassis along with adjustable suspension and super light wheels. Dual 298mm front brakes with a radial master cylinder ensure fingertip control. And the radical next generation styling and pure coverless chassis design confirm the MT-09 as a ruthless Hyper Naked.
