The MT-09’s Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) electronically governs the throttle valves, but unlike the system on former models that use a cable to relay throttle inputs via a pulley, the 2021 MT-09 features the new Accelerator Position Sensor Grip (ASPG) ride-by-wire unit that ...
The MT-09 is one of those bikes where you’ll ride around with next to no idea what gear you’re in, because it won’t really matter. It’ll pull hard in 6th from 40mph but my bet is you’ll spend most of your time between 3rd and 4th. Such is the torque from the engine th...

The MT-09 has always been the good value hooligan of the middleweight naked segment, and the SP variant the equally good value step up in terms of tech and performance. That’s still the case for 2021, with the SP just sliding under the top-spec Street Triple RS it is aiming for. A...

Models like an MT-R07 and MT-R09 are being discussed as potential successors. I think this could be an interesting direction for Yamaha, blending the MTs versatility with supersport performance.

It should be obvious that the Tracer has the first part of “sport-touring” down pat thanks to theGreatTriple (see what I did there?) it shares with the MT-09 naked. It’s a motor that has rightfully earned praise since its debut three years ago, and I see no reason to rehash al...

while Mode 4 has limited output and is designed to be used in inclement weather or very bad road surfaces. I haven’t had the opportunity to ride the new MT-09, but the previous model was so rambunctious in A Mode (equivalent to Mode 1 here) that I didn’t use it in day-to-day...
