Overall I really enjoy my 2024 MT-09! My biggest complaint is the seat. It’s uncomfortable after 1.5 hours and the comfort seat Yamaha sells isn’t any better!
SP has Ohlins Rear, KYB front, brakes upgraded with Brembo Master + Brembo Stylema Calipers. For looks it has a brushed aluminum rear swingarm, and nicer paint job.
do reviewers hop on a bike and gripe about bars being to far up..mirrors not lined up brake pedal not shiny. i would like to see a reviewer adjust bars clutch brake grips up down in out . get the bike best adjusted for them then review it
Same, on my 2021 mt09, I’ll get 50-55mpg and 180 miles before I need to fill up. That’s doing longer touring with mountain twisties too. City only riding it’s more like 140 miles.
Have you seen the gears Adam is in when riding. He was doing about 40 to 50mph in 2nd gear and at times screaming the engine in 1st gear and doing around 30 to 40mph in 1st gear. Not my kind of riding style. If I am just cruising e.g. in a load of traffic like a lot of the riding in this video, then I get into the higher gears.
Does anyone know why manufacturers keep pushing things at us that we are not interested in ie. keyless ignition...very good for a car but no benefits for a motorcycle imo.
Way too much traffic. Poor planning on Yamaha's part. So much side traffic and parking along the side of the road, could have been a recipe for disaster!
That’s brake fluid and it needs to be higher than the brake line in order for gravity to do its thing and keep the air out of the lines. Unfortunately it’s just a fact of life! Still, they could have made the reservoir look a little cooler 😂
I’m having a hard time comprehending the fuel mileage of newer motorcycles, I had a 2001 FZ-1 that could regularly get 50 mpg if not abusing the mess out of it. My 2000 Pontiac grand am GT with the ram air V6 can get 35 mpg. Are these tests at descent road speeds? Are they ran to redline for every shift? Seems like technology hasn’t advanced except for the cost!
Since no one answered: yea you get a lot of wind, but it’s clean air, it’s the same amount of wind all over rather than being focused on the middle of your helmet. Amount of bugs I never noticed more or less I feel like this just depends where you are rather than what you’re riding. Honestly I feel like it’s less noise on my helmet when I ride my naked bike, because as I said it’s not focusing the wind on the middle of your helmet. Short rides on highway are fine, below 70mph it’s almost unnoticeable, after about an hour at 70+ you’ll start to feel fatigued without some kind of windshield.
This guy does not know what he’s talking about, this bike has 117 horsepower not 107… Also, regardless of what number you go with, it doesn’t have more power than the street triple r or rs
This review was absolutely pointless. Way late to the party, and brings nothing but wrong info. No brake engine setting on this bike. And I own one. Watching 20 minutes of this one-take review screams nothing but LAZY.
110 120 mpg. if your not going up any hills...sounds like if you are headed above sea level you'll need to pack some liquid gogo. I've never had a bike i can recall that needed fuel every other mile marker kinda dumb so need to skip this one. imagine riding it over to santa cruz.. beautiful sunny day . the merc/bmw murderes stayed at home life is great... cough cough.. spit ..outta gas somewhere some ice cream grade back road.. should of bungied that ww2 jerry can
😂 better than the Street Triple’s 765? And makes more power?? You’re high as a kite bro. Yamaha must have paid you a pretty penny for this review. I’ve lost all respect for you man.
This will last a lot longer & be cheaper to maintain. The street triple has a peaky power band. Better for the track, on the street I'd take the MT09 all day.
This bike is awesome and a very strong update. I can't wait for the sp edition.
I would love to sit on one of these and compare it to the 23 which I just purchased. The 2023 is super comfortable and on rails!!
Btw good to see you back bro.
I am waiting to see the R9 before I make a decision between the MT-09SP for my next motorcycle.
I think the r9 will be to the r1, like the r7 is to the r6
I’m in the same boat
@@luketerry1745 R7 and R6 are nothing alike besides name
Been waiting years for r9 😢
@@GuitarGuy650 exactly
Thank you Adam for talking faster. It was annoying 1.5xing these videos. Great review, former 2021 owner.
Why did you get rid of it?
He must have taken his adderall today
@@madrat5176 got a Multistrada V4S, I found I tour more than hooligan.

I have the previous model and for touring I have a sheep skin seat cover. It helps a lot.
What happened to this channel? Once it was all over the internet.
Naked bikes took over and everyone lost interest
@@calamarininjabeast5866blaming a style of bike for a channel’s downfall? Lol
Slowdown on interesting new bikes? Nothing worth reporting?
@@captainfreight5206 if he doesn’t have cool bikes to review people aren’t interested
Yeah I miss seeing Adam or Michael Gilbert ripping around a track testing bikes
24 MT-09SP will offer a rear-off ABS mode, for those who are interested in skids into a corner or drifty/stunt riding.
Hope the R9 come soon based from this MT-09
I want one! I feel like these bike hold their value very well as im looking for one used now. Nimble canyon carver.
Great package no one can touch the overall package of this in terms of reliability and fun factor arguably…
It’s better for street than the ST in many ways.
Each have there places.
✌️
Nice review however certainly not air intakes, keep on keeping on.
I still miss my 1st gen V-Max ☹️. Shaft drive forever.
Extra weight
I still prefer the last generation. Same engine but lighter bike and better looking overall. The styling on the 2024 isn’t great
Right. And Gen 3 had a more upright riding position, which I prefer.
@@mikes2270 Yes 👍
I agree I have a 22" SP and this new model a some nice small improvements but the looks I think are no better and somewhat worse.
I like the 2024 bike way more
The riding position is ever so slightly lower on the bars. Buy raisers if you feel the need, simple fix.
What is the exact difference between this and the SP version? Fantastic review btw!!!
SP has Ohlins Rear, KYB front, brakes upgraded with Brembo Master + Brembo Stylema Calipers.

@@MotoRacoonATX Dont forget the sp version has Forged rims
Adam,
Do you have image stability turned on?
Guy in front of you duckfoots on the pegs = amateur hour
Don’t like the big boarder around the TFT, they cheeped out on that!!
do reviewers hop on a bike and gripe about bars being to far up..mirrors not lined up brake pedal not shiny.
i would like to see a reviewer adjust bars clutch brake grips up down in out .
get the bike best adjusted for them then review it
And the suspension for their weight.
34mpg is terrible. I get at least 40mpg on my heavy 117 cu in harley and I'm thrashin all day
I get 54 on my 24 mt09. All how you ride it man.

Thrashing on a 50 HP engine still isn't burning a lot.
Thrashing on my GSXR1000 is a different story.

You say that but I bet it'd come in clutch for cop runners lol. Can't get robbed of your keys if it's simply kept in your jacket
Stop whining, you can buy stand addition with key.
Happy now
Never never!! Wait that long to change your oil!! Plz
Way too much traffic. Poor planning on Yamaha's part. So much side traffic and parking along the side of the road, could have been a recipe for disaster!
I really can't get over the little cup of fluid they mounted stupidly to the bars
That’s brake fluid and it needs to be higher than the brake line in order for gravity to do its thing and keep the air out of the lines. Unfortunately it’s just a fact of life! Still, they could have made the reservoir look a little cooler 😂
I would never pair my phone with my bike. I would rather just have analog gauges over a TFT screen. I do like that they added cruise control.
Get an old bike
What not ?

Only thing I could think bro is the overall quality of gas is worse
Smaller cc?? 847 I think
Was this a voice over?
Wanted to read the comments but there were none.
We are too early 😅
Looks like a great bike, but shit, why didn't they just have the test ride in downtown LA? That traffic was ridiculous for an intro ride.
Don’t you get lots of wind and bugs with no screen ?
Noise must be loud from wind ?
No good for motorway with no screen ?
Since no one answered: yea you get a lot of wind, but it’s clean air, it’s the same amount of wind all over rather than being focused on the middle of your helmet.

I want to sell my KTM 390 adventure. I’m pricing it competitively and still no takers.
Versys 650 , a better all round package .
Mt09 2024 or a 2021?
This or the Z900? Pros and Cons of both?
The Yam triple is a riot. Prefer it to an inline 4.
One is heavy af, the other light weight.
Pick your poison lol
This guy does not know what he’s talking about, this bike has 117 horsepower not 107…

120 miles of range 🤯
I’m getting 140 miles before the fuel light comes on, with another gallon to go! I’m also seeing 53 mpg consistently.
@bradybingham2317
Same here 52 to 54 mpg 150 plus b4 fuel light.
2021????????????????? 😮
107hp? 119ps in Europe 😊
He gave to the wheel HP not flywheel :)

I’ve ridden them both back to back this week (work at a dealership) and he’s right. It has more grunt than the ST for sure.
The engine is better the the Street Tripple that's not even debatable.
