Definitely one of the best middleweight engines ever made. Wonder if it will last as long as the 650 Suzuki make? Still really good after 25yrs.
Great bike, although I need plastic to hide behind when it's cold.
Good one.
Ride safe 👍
I honestly think these bikes will stand the test of time, Yamaha has the Best Reliability rate, the engine is a peach and of course Yamaha know how to look after there customers too. I too for me personally would prefer the T7 but for me its just not got all the things i need to be my long distance tourer.... If they added Cruise and Quick shifter id be very tempted by the T7
@@ontheroadadventure The quickshifter is an option!
None will get ever close to the legendary V on Suzuki, neither in sound, neither in feel, but the MT07 CP2 is really good, i've seen plenty of models go past 100k miles, though with proper mainteinance, anyway the SV650 is of the little engine that you can abuse and they will keep working.
@@tomrandom7091 ooohh I do like the Suzuki SV, the thousand is a hooligan!
the engine is great but the problem is the features, Yamaha have neglected the MT-07 for years, only minor upgrades
I agree with most people here, that screen looks absolutely awkward, what did Yamaha think? The previous one looked much much better, the square just doesn't fit at all lol
I believe this is not the standard screen I think it’s part of a sport pack?
The TFT display is hideous. I like the previous display much better
@@therealrealshocker Seems to be a real marmite screen on this one
Love the display on this !
You seem to be in the minority for some reason on this!
@@ontheroadadventure haha, the display is wonderfull. Nice and clear, no glare in the sun. After 4k, I still love it very much.
@@BBFazer Awesome, i love the motor and almost everythng about MT09
You are always very honest with your reviews, a bresh of fresh air 👍 great first bike for anyone, great price and to be honest I've been on one they are so much fun
Thanks Nigel, Personally i think if you are not going to be honest theres no point doing reviews, Theres too many people that say all is perfect and bright so as not to offend, but we all know in the real world perfection rarely exists... The CP2 Engine though does come close!
Here is my view on the screen . It’s actually a very good display and you can read it in all conditions. Sure it looks a bit odd being this square “iPad mini “ on the bars . All up it’s not the PITS ‘ it’s just a bit out of place .
My con to this bike is the key position, now that’s a boo boo from Yamaha . Some bikes I’ve own have the key down low beside the seat , I don’t mine that position . Where the seat release is on the MT 07 Is a perfect spot .
I agree on the key, a bit of a nuisance
Extreme Creations Do an Turbo KIT for these MT07s And the Newer R7 Twin taking the Un-Restricted MT07 From 74HP to an Ghost-Riding 115BHP [At The wheel] On a small bike like this would be FUUUUUN.
Yes! I’d be in for some of that!
Another Great motorcycle review
Thanks so much, A fine Yamaha to show you
Thanks for that info,yes they are a great bike and that engine well what more can be said,I have been looking at the Xsr 700,but these also float my boat,,plenty of add on’s after to play with and remind me in a way of the RD350lc, which I have owned in the past,shall see what this year brings,take care
Ted
I really like the xsr700, so much custom stuff you can do with them, there’s a company that makes whole kits for them
hi guys are you both well, not noticed any new vids and just wanted to ensure you are both well,iam aware its cold,damp nd sometimes miserable but not long now for warmer times 24,you take care and if its an age thing i have missed an up load sorry,Ted NW guy from morecambe@@ontheroadadventure
i have had 3 xsr700 and 3 mt07
mt07 i prefer, i also have owned rd350lc and know exactly what you mean, these have the dna of an elsie
@@craigtruelove444 I wouldn’t mind the XSR700 as a second bike
Perfect size, perfect tractable engine, bike for a lot of occasions. TFTs are just horrible compared to the twin triumph retro clocks. I rode a Tracer 7 back to back against a vstrom650 and I ended up with the suzuki? I rather like the look of the xsr. I prefer heated gloves to grips
The XSR is definitely the “Cool one”. I prefer the fairings though due to the riding I do. V strom 650 is a solid bike, in fact I really liked riding the new v strona, very smooth bikes. I do think heated gloves are the best but having heated grips should be standard on motorcycles I reckon, it costs the manufacturer nothing really, it just should be done…
the tft is great, everyone moaned about them being in cars years ago, i remember when i got an audi with one, now they have all got them
Im with you, I like a TFT on a new biker unless its a retro Styled bike. But do you think its a little exposed on this one?
@@ontheroadadventure
On the first look I agree but it will just be a matter of time before it looks right to us and the older style one looks like and black and white portable tv 🤣
The first one on the T7 was known as the Casio like the old calculators@@craigtruelove444
I have a 2022 MT-07 & no regrets no complaints super awesome bike.👍🏽👌🏽👏🏽💯
Good to hear! Enjoy your machine 👍
Hiya good vid.i own a 2018 one for 2nalf yrs now brilliant bike Toured spain on it last year.Avg mpg around 75.to 80 at 60mph.gud eh.till nxt time enjoy ride safe.👍🏍
That’s some good fuel economy, certainly beats our Africa Twins!
Did you ride with the standard seat? I think it’s terrible.
N0 had my seat done at Tony Archer he should b on face book dont no where you are but hes in Huddersfield and call at Squires bike nites on thurs nites.iv had about 5seats dont by him no probs with comefort 👍
@@kelvinharrison6702 Cheers!
What should i buy after r3? I like supersport bikes rather than naked ones. I wanted to buy an r7 but that bike is complete 0 in technical specs so im looking for your opinion :D
Do you have a full license? If so MT09 could be good for you I recently did a review on the MT09 Tracer GT plus which is loads of fun and full of tech
No quickshifter? I thought the sport pack came with the quickshifter, it does in my country at least
I believe you can have it but its a optional Extra
Hello both, my girlfriend and I have been watching your channel and enjoy your videos. I ride a 2020 Africa twin my girlfriend has recently passed her CBT with a view to doing her full test. She has set up a little youtube channel showing her journey. Have been filming on gopro hero 10, recently been out I'm the cold weather and battery will last about 45mins,,is this normal and the same in hot weather for you guys?
Hi guys, firstly that’s awesome you can now ride together 👍 Tell her to comment here so we can find her channel. Yes battery life is not good on GoPro, some people connect power banks to them I think but we just accept it for what it is
@@ontheroadadventure The channel is brand new with very little content at the moment. Still trying to work out how to upload video to youtube without losing the quality and how to capture our intercom conversation on the Go Pro. Sure we will get there though 👍keep up the great work👍
@@Beginner2BadassBiker Enjoy the process guys and don’t let it take over from your overall ride experience 👍
I love the look of these bikes and was thinking about this one as my first bike. I am 6ft so do you think it would be too small?
No i think it would be a great choice for a taller person, have you taken one for a test ride yet?
Not yet, i’m actually looking to start learning this summer. I’m looking to do a direct access course as i’m over 24. But just love the look of the street/naked style bike.
Go for it, Ewa did the direct access having not ridden before, it’s better than just doing a couple hours CBT training.
I bought a new one from Bridge Motorcycles in 2017 and kept it for 5 years. They are great bikes and I even toured as far as Croatia and Slovenia on it. Decided I needed the same requirement for wind protection as teneretraveller8980 so now have the Tracer 700 which is also a great bike. Sorry to see the crash video you posted earlier, hope your partner is not hurt. The bike can be fixed. Keep safe, Mike.
Hey Mike, Thanks for your comments. How was Croatia for touring? We fancy going that way… Yamaha have such an amazing range of bikes, I’ve always been a fan since my own tracer.
Oh and thanks Ewa is all good, Gotta watch out for the ice this time of year!
@@ontheroadadventure Croatia is brilliant but very hot (mid 30's) when we went in July 2017. On the coast there is no problem with language but some places inland we did have issues being understood. Went there some years before by plane and stayed on an Island offshore, lovely there. Slovenia is far greener and lake bled is a must.
@@ontheroadadventure We all get caught out by ice. I had two drops on ice in the 1980's while riding to work in the early morning. Take more care these days as older bones don't bounce so well.
@@mikethebikemt07tracer We would love to ride our twins to that whole area in a nice long trip
❤ welcome
Thanks for Joining us
In 2015, I learned half on ER6N half on MT07. (The school bought new bikes.) I loved the Yamaha although I had no real experience. But the seat..... awful. Numb bum after 45 minutes. 😂 Are the seats better now?
The MT07 is more of the sporty variant, for more comfort have a look at the tracer 700, you’ll have better comfort, seat, wind protection etc
I had 2018 yamaha, suspensions, handling lacked quite a lot, bike did not feel near close to a good handling, even SV 650 was miles better, is this version better? Also, brakes were awfull...
These have come on massively since 2018, I had the 2017 tracer and the suspension was the same but the new ones are so different
You’re lucky the pheasant didn’t fly out in front of you! A sparrow hit the toe of my boot and ripped the sole off to nearly the heel. I was at 60mph-ish. The pheasant is probably heavy enough to break a leg.
Yeah they are a bit of a hazard in Devon for sure! Not the brightest bird
should a beginner start on the mt-03?
It’s up to you, Ewa my partner on the channel started on a tiger 800. Any size bike is dangerous if ridden wrong
Oh boy, what a terrible terrible display. The handlebar setup on previous mt07 were are a stylish mix of aggression and dynamism. And this new one looks like a nerd😂
Oh dear… Not a fan then?! It was the headlight that had me looking back at it and wondering what’s gone on…
I agree. I have the previous version and lack of tech on the bike was one of reasons I chose it.
Crying out for a Akro!
Yes! Let the mods Begin!
Why are you constantly riding with high beam on??
Can’t say I noticed…
@@ontheroadadventure sad
👍
You a fan of Yamaha?
@@ontheroadadventure Yamaha is a nice bike but I'm a Honda fan
I love them all, but Hondas for us at too with the twins
@@ontheroadadventure You are right, they are very nice motorcycles.
Smashing little(ish) bike, sure it would be great fun on a warmer day! It's a good job you're not a brass monkey Rich!!! 😯
Oh how we are waiting for warmer dry weather! The wait feels endless! The MT 07 is a great bike though, with an aftermarket exhaust the sound is Addictive on these…
Dang bro, where you cold? 😂
Yes it’s not much fun in the uk right now on the bike! Gotta watch out for the ice
@@ontheroadadventure careful out there and keep bringing those posts. lovely channel!
Thanks so much, you’ll have to go through so e of our older videos whilst we wait for better weather, but we will be on it full time as soon as we are able 👍
Your reviews wouldn’t be complete without you calling them small 😂
I do like a Big adventure bikes! Everything else feels small to me when i ride there on the Africa Twin 1100. Point taken though...
That display tho🤮
Oh dear, the new TFT is not going down very well….
This is democracy manifest
What do you mean?
You should have noted that there is an assist and slipper clutch among others. You haven't pointed out the differences bet the old and new models. Lazy reviewer
Thanks for your insight
