Would y'all get the Yamaha MT 10 instead of the MT 09?! Let me know your thoughts between the two!
I would totally get one , but would have to lower it . lol
do it!!!!!
I'd go with the MT-09. That triple just sounds too fuckin cool.
im bias , i have 2 09's XD
Wait for the MT09-SP
"I am not looking to wheelie, I am not going to wheelie". Like you have a choice.
For real 😂
Haha. It's a beast. Love my MT10.
The MT 10 felt smoother because you had the high beam on the whole ride. the light burnt the bumps off the road ;)
Riding with my high beam always on for all vehicles now if that’s how it works! 😂
DWL 😂
I ride with my high beams on constantly.
😂😂😂
Lol, I needed that this morning.
so im creeping up on 4k miles on my MT10 and man i have never loved a bike so much. after i got the 2wdw flash it totally changed how it rode, absolute monster. Be safe out there man one thing about the MT10 is if you dont master throttle control you are going to constantly be doing wheelies lol
I'd say if you lived in an area that had a lot of canyons and twisties, go with the more nimble MT09. But seeing as how you live in Florida where the roads really aren't all that, go with the 10 and take advantage of its strengths which are more suited for everyday riding. And, when you do find yourself in an area with more curvy roads, you really won't be disappointed with the way the 10 handles anyway.
Get the MT10, you won't regret it. It's a better bike overall VS the MT09, and the power is there when you so choose to twist the throttle. Also, the factory tune is kinda snatchy on/off throttle, but the "2 wheel dyno works" tune transforms the bike.
The sound my God 😲🤘
They must have used the new "Crossplane" crankshaft. This engine sounds TOTALLY different than a regular 4 cylinder. The firing order is clearly different. It sounds like a V-Twin or a V-Four engine, or a Subaru boxer. It doesn't have the same firing order as normal inline 4. I need to do more research! This also sounds like the 270 degree Honda baby 1100 "Rebel." Listen to the Rebel 1100, you can hear the same distinct violent pitter patter. Also listen to a Ducati 916. Same exact sound.
@@Ritalie don’t you know the yamaha m1 from motogp ? This engine evolved from that one. Funny thing is: rossi chose this engine out of 5 other engines i believe. He said he could right smoother and felt more in control with it. Since 2009 this crossplane 4 inline engine came out on the market. Ben spies and josh hayes became champion on it I think. Now on the new engine the stroke is shorter and the cylinder capacity is a bit larger, which makes it possible to create more top end power ( higher revs ) compared to the older engine. Now Toprak is also champion on this bike. Lot’s of succes with this engine, its awesome and unique! This MT10 has the same engine with some slight changes to tame it a bit ! ;)
@@DonGH97 I didn't know that it came out in 2009. So the MT10 has the same crossplane R1 engine? People say the MT10 has "too much" power and isn't fun because it's almost difficult to control all that power. It sounds awesome to me!
I'd say get the MT10. As you've seen mode 3 fits your current comfort level so that means you still have a lot of room to grow on it. And can always go back down to 3 to thwap on it without worry. Lots of upgrades you can get so there's room for both you and the bike to grow.
The fact that you so humbly reflected on your confidence and sense of achievement afterwards means I’m definitely not ready for the 10. MT09 it is for now. Thanks man!
Long term mt/fz09 owner here(3 yrs). Look the mt09 is a good bike. 600CC power and good torque plus light weight but at the end of the day the mt10 out shines it in every aspect. I bought one a month ago and would never look back. Better frame, suspension and motor make such a better bike. Yeah power is there but its the whole package. Fuel range is about the same between the 2 bikes. The ability to cut in on corners is night and day plus adding in cruise is a cherry on top. The sound track is top notch and quick shifter is just the icing on the cake. Well worth the extra couple g's over the sp 09 easy. It feels more adult if you catch my drift. Plus has decent touring options if that's your plan. I sold and rode Harleys for a few years but I've always owed Yamahas from r6 to r1, mt09 and now an mt-10. Really best bike for the money hands down.
I've got a 20 plate MT10, the sound, power, looks and entertainment this bike gives is awsome.. I run it in TC2/Mode2 at the moment, still getting used to it.. Its a thumbs up from me 👍🏻. Cheers Yamaha.
I have been trying to decide this exact question for myself. I was leaning towards the MT-10. I think this video just helped me decide. From my perspective you couldn’t have made a better video. 👍🏻
Happy to help! 😊
I just got my 2021 mt10. And yeah the power feels like it’s supernatural or something it’s violently powerful. I love it.
This bike was never on my radar but it just sounds so good! Wow!
sounds absolutely sic !! Probably the the best sounding I've ever heard
I had the MT09 for a couple years. It was a fantastic bike! However, I traded it in on a 2021 MT10 back in December. The 10 is an absolute monster, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! It's a better bike in literally every single aspect.
So true!
How is the suspension? That was the downfall for the mt09 for a lot of the years. Is it sporty enough to rip the canyons with some confidence?
That is a great sounding bike. I think either is a great choice and your gonna “do it” up anyway for whichever you get, lol. Looking forward to seeing the MT journey
I’m almost positive I saw this bike (and maybe you driving it) in the Winter Park area earlier this week. Great vid brotha, dope bike too
Best sounding I4 ever! That crossplane crank helps it not sound like a bumblebee :D
I’m just gonna keep watching this for the exhaust. Soo glorious
The sound is awesome !!! The bike is TROUBLE !!! Thrilling video ! Thanks for sharing !
I absolutely love my MT-10. I feel like I'd be missing something if I got the MT-09 instead. I have a similar setup to the one in this video. Same tank grips, ecu flashed, higher windscreen, comfort seat, etc... The CP4 sounds amazing. One thing to think about, the extra power isn't just good for faster 0-60 or higher top speed. You'll have more power all the time. It's a beast!
I owned an mt09. The mt10 has cruise control but is harder on gas ⛽️. They’re both awesome bikes and you’ll be happy w whatever you decide to go with! 🏍😎👌
old fan here, been a while since you grom'd and 883'd. Love your progressionzz. ;)
she is definitely a monster. love that mt10. your reaction riding it is definitely the best.
Hard not to react on this thing, lol
My 2 cents worth, you’ll never get bored with the MT 10 and the sound alone would be reason enough to buy it. That said you’d have to drop thousands more into it to get it to where that loaner bike is. In regards to the MT 09 SP you won’t have to spend any money to upgrade suspension etc, it’s fantastic out of the crate. Good luck with your decision, win win either model you choose!
We don’t get SP models in the USA🤦🏾♂️
@@NudaMan actually we now get the MT09 SP in the US
Nice review
I have owned all three of this line of Bikes (wife has fz-07) I had a FZ-09 and have recently purchased the MT-10 and in my opinion there is no comparison from the MT-10 to either of the other bikes
Yes it is a beast but the suspension is so nice It gives you confidence that I found The 09 sapped from me.
I have been riding for all my life and consider myself an experienced rider.
MT-10 all the way other then a budget...
Bought a Mt10 sp after 30 years of Gsxr's, Fireblades and R1's and have to say I absolutely love it ! A totally mental machine . Miles of smiles, well till the next frequent fuel stop which are frequent !
I own all 3 fz/mt bikes I love my mt10 excellent bike! Just wish it had better fuel range for longer rides
Amen to this, I own the mt10sp, fuel is horrible, but then again, brrap
Had mine nearly 5 years, been the best bike I've ever owned.
I totally agree with you
4:30 I actually really liked the off center look.
Me too, they really made it look good on the MT-09
I own this exact bike and I find mode 2 is perfect for every day use..
Great review.
My God! If I could have a second bike, this would be it. The exhaust note sounds like a smaller tuned, high revving v8. Beastly!
Get it bro. DO EEETTT!
I traded my XSR900 which is essentially an MT09. I regret it everyday. That bike was dope, it sounded amazing with an exhaust.
I've picked myself up the MT10SP over here in Oz, best bike I've had. Have owned a 2017 MT09 as well, completely different bikes.
Damn, wanted to see you drop it in mode 1 at least for a second 😁
Just bought an 2021 mt10 in the ice fluo colours, only done 400 miles so far so still running it in but I'm in love already 👊👊👊
MT-10 all the way. Bike sounds freaking awesome!
Great review! I had mt09 from 2017-2019, sold it got mt10 cos I needed more power. Never regretted my decision, did over 32000kms in less than 2 years. Bike still gives me a semi when I look at it and a proper chubby every time I ride it. I am never getting rid of it. Except maybe for a new version of mt10. Come on Yamaha, we need this!
😂I can definitely relate, can’t have enough of the looks and sound, and not just me, seems to get the attention of everyone else on the road.
Maybe you could remind us briefly how a quick-shifter works? How about a steering-damper as well? I ride an '09 FXDL which is a totally different universe, so some of these terms go over my helmet! I could google, but your 'splainin is usually easy to understand hahah. Keep up the good work man!
I owned a MT09 for 3 years. Loved the engine but the suspension was a little soft and I found the seat quite uncomfortable. I didn't like how quiet the stock pipe was either. I sold it and bought a MT10. Love the MT 10! While the MT09 would wheelie easily off the throttle in 2nd the MT10 would do the same in 3rd. The pull in 3rd gear is amazing! Even 4th gear pulls very strongly. While the MT09 was quiet, the MT10 sounds great even with the stock pipe. I really like how I can wheelie with the ABS on 1. It also has an electronic steering stabiliser to keep things predictable.The cruise control is great on boring bits. I really like the larger and more "meaty" feel of this bike compared to the MT09. The handling is super sharp. I have the same colors as your bike in the video and love that I don't have anything to wax. Overall this is easily the best bike I have owned. If you like power then this bike will do the job. Negatives: The small tank can be a pain and it should have come with a radiator guard. Also no storage space under the seat. I bought a GIVI sport windscreen and it looks like stock and does a better job with the wind. I would definitely recommend a MT10 if you can afford it and you are an experienced rider and can handle the power.
Definitely gonna get this in the future. I got my fz8 as my second bike and love the naked bikes
Wow, I love the sound that thing makes!
Hands down one of the best sounding engines on any bike of any class. That R1 exhaust tone is what eargasums are made of.
I had the MT09 and now have the MT10. The MT10 is 30% better in all areas. It’s fun, powerful, planted, safer under breaking into corners and less highly strung so more relaxing than the high reviving triple cylinder of the MT09. The MT10 is truly an incredibly enjoyable bike to own. Effortless and I still love it after 5 years. It also still feels like new.
One thing I like about the MT10 is that it looks good naked as well as fitted with some touring mods, taller screen, handguards, etc.. if you are to go down that route. I quite like the way chaseontwowheels's MT10 looks like. Some other bikes are not as adaptive. For example, I own a Kawasaki Z900, which looks good with the standard windscreen, the moment you put any other taller screen on it, just doesn't work for whatever reason, looks weird. My next bike will probably be a MT-10
I love my 2020 z900 but I’ve already started looking into adding the mt10 to the stable
Glad you check out different bikes
I had the 17 fz09 I went to 17 fz10 and am never going back. Wish I made that decision before I had the 09. Everything about it is better, smoother, more throttle control. You won’t regret it. The 09 has much to be desired
Yo Blockhead, LUVIT. You Meet the Nicest People on a Honda. Keep the Shiny Side Up.
That MT-10 sounds mean!! I love that sound!
Nice review. Is the quick shifter adjustable? Are the brakes linked? Is the suspension adjustments manual or electronic? Thanks again for the great review.
Transformer symbol fits it so perfectly 💯🔥
I have 2019 MT10 and man, I have either owned or ridden all of the super naked and I find myself having the most fun on the MT10 but it just does not get the love it deserves. Such a great bike!
I would keep the MT09SP or wait till they do a upgrade on the electrics on the MT10 like the did the MT09
Would love to ride an mt10. Havnt been on any of the newer bikes but last year I had a 2003 yamaha fz1 and that was an awesome all around bike. Plenty of power and handled well. I know a lot has changed from 2003 till the current mt10 so would love to see what its all about.
I absolutely love my 10. It's my dream bike.👍
MY DREAM BIKE!! Love this video haha
Nice video. I've owned an FZ-07, FZ-09, and want an MT-10. I like the idea of a sport touring motorcycle. Took the 09 from Western PA to Charleston SC and back over a 4 day weekend. Thoughts on long rides? It has Cruise.
Would love to see you do a Blockhead custom MT09 or MT07, makes a change from your usual bikes! Been interested in either getting the MT09 or a Kawasaki Vulcan!
I’m a big MT09 fan boy so I would still take the SP tbh but seems like you got big eyes for the MT10, man.
OMG Block the sound is like a racing formula 1 car, is the definition of SEXY into a sound, I love it.
*Decepticons are attacking*
Oh wait it's just Blocks notification
What's the brand of exhaust were you having on the bike...??? I love the growling sound....... Thank you
For me personally the 09 over the 10 because there is more usable power. Running through the gears your speed is so much higher on the 10 and it's missing some of the low end I feel the 09 has. The MT09 SP is going to be a real sweet bike, cruise, upgraded suspension, slightly bigger motor with more low end punch. Plus the 6 axis IMU is a big thing when you are talking about pushing a bike through twisties. BUT man it's hard to not fall in the love with that MT10 crossplane engine. Easily one of the best sounding engines on the market today.
Amazing bike. Go MY10 bro! 👌🏾👌🏾. Like the discretely blanked out speedo 🤣🤣👌🏾
I started on sport bikes, they’re a whole different experience! MT 10 seems scary... 😅
Sweet ride MT-01 is my fav of the MT line 🤘
I understand Shadetree Surgeon highly recommends the Ducati Multistrada....he might make you a great deal on his....
Damn bro, too soon 😂
I’ve got 17,800 miles on my fz10 and it’s been an amazing bike!
The suspension being tuned makes all the difference on this bike. I’m still not a fan of the electronic throttle but tuning the rear shock makes it so much more supple. They set it up to wheelie, honestly
OMG, That bike sounds so beastly.
Traction control can also be disabled. Go to setting 1, then hold the up arrow for a couple seconds. But I myself never ride with it off on my FZ-10. Also you have no say in wheelies lol. Gas mileage is my only gripe. I wish it had more range. But I knew that going in so I wasn't disappointed. I've got mine reflashed by 2Wheel Dynoworks and it is far better than stock. It's a fun bike for sure. Cruise control was a big selling point for me personally. You won't be disappointed if you get one.
....that low RPM sound though!!....sounds like V8 muscle!!....just get that one!!...everything is for sale with the right offer!😏...that thing is a beast!!....stay safe out there!...ride safe!!😎👍🤙👍🤙🇨🇦
Sounds like corvette in the higher rpms but the sound overall is intoxicating
Yep, Im definitely interested to know which MT bike. Yamaha tends to be a little cheaper than other brands here in Taiwan. I mainly ride in the city so although I used to love the MT10, I'm thinking it is too fast and maybe too hot sitting in traffic in tropical weather. I'd love to hear the thoughts. I'm currently riding a 300cc maxi scooter looking for more power. How much more? probably Mt07 or 09 more.
I don't know how you can focus with that sound. Out of 10,000 motorcycle videos, this is the best sounding engine I've ever heard. It sounds better than any car, or motorcycle ever made. This is unreal. It almost sounds like a fake "over dub" of some V8 engine from a race track. How on Earth did they get a 4 cylinder to sound like this. Please make an entire video about the engine. This engine deserves a FortNine level documentary. Forget the bike. It's all about the engine! :))))))))
Cross plane crank, like an American V8.
Most inline 4 cylinder sport bikes have a flat plane crank.
Just the cruise control would have sold me lol I love having amenities
A touring screen will make a big difference. It’s a great bike. But getting old in the tooth. The new z h2 has been on my radar for a 10 replacement. But nakeds definitely need a tall screen for the interstate.
I love my 2020 MT-10 came from a MT-07 big crazy difference.
The cp4 is a super smooth engine. More than typical I-4s. First hand a steering damper will make the bike feel more planted leaned over. So you can put on the FZ/MT 09 and it will drastically change the way it feels leaned over. Much more stable. Look into ohlins steering damper for the MT09 SP. $$$
I went from a 2016 MT-09 to a Kawasaki Z1000R, absolutely no regrets. If you can, try a Z1000 they seem to be a bit of a rare bike in the States.
Yes get one just yes get itttt !!!!! If you do buy it can you list the price you got it for and what mods are done to it ?
Block buy the mt-09 and put the mods that the 10 had. Add the steering dampener, flash the ecu and use more of the full potential of the bike. The upgrades should help it feel more planted like the mt-10.
Unless you want to get into track days....then my-10
That ting sounds amazing!!! 👍
Get the MT-10. I was in the same boat as you last year. Cruise control, more comfortable seat, more planted, "better" sound, power modes, and better looks.
In my opinion, the only reason to get the MT-09 is if you wanna save a couple thousand dollars or if you're a diehard triple fan.
They're both stupid fast, and will both get you hurt, so the comfort level thing is out the window. The 10 has power modes (more like throttle response modes), to ease you into the power.
I got the 2020 MT-10 in Ice Fluo and I have no regrets, it's my favorite bike yet, even beating my Z1000 I had years ago.
Get a 10 SP if you can stretch that far or the standard 10 because I believe the stock equipment suspension/chassis wise is higher grade on the 10 and if you get it tuned by a pro you’ll probably get pretty good results. If you bought a 10 SP just go straight to the pro for set up. There is a caveat to this though, I’d try to get a ride on a ‘21 version 09 SP, apparently they’ve made pretty decent changes to suspension and geometry which have yielded good improvements so that may suit you even more 🤷🏻♂️
If you hold the “trip” switch it switches between ambient temp and motor temp!
Cant beat the sound of a CrossPlane crank! Get both Bro!
Cool vid. Question? How was the sport fairing? Kinda want one for my mt10 but wasn't sure if directs the wind to the helmet or just helps a bit with chest wind.
Awesome bike...maybe too much bike for me but she sure sounds like a beast🔥🤘🤘
Damn man.... you’re in 4th gear at 40mph. Keep it 1st, ride in the 7k range unless you’re on the highway, and turn rain mode (TC3) off. It’s an awesome bike, just got done MD-FL and back on my ‘17 FZ10.
How is the wind buffeting? Did yamaha keep it similar to the fz1 and place it on the helmet? (Good thing btw)
That thing is freakin beautiful. As you pointed out, the MT10 is not a beginner bike. In your opinion which bike in that line up is?
Come to SoCal when I get my 2021 MT09 and you can test ride mine! Lol, but hopefully your local Yammi dealer will bring the 21 at their demo day also. But still, the offer stands! 😉🤭
Come check out the used one we have at the shop you traded the 1000 for the grom for. We have a nasty mt10 will a full yoshi alpha exhaust and a really nice tune
Wow nice camera work love the hi resolution what GoPro are you using and settings
Idk what settings but he uses the hero 9
Hero 8 recorded at 60fps w stabilization
@@BlockheadMoto 😲
I don't have any questions about the MT10, but I would love to know what video editor you use? On the MT09 vs the MT10, I would likely have picked the MT09. The MT09 has the best of both worlds. It has tons of usable power but also handles like a champ. I'd love to see you review the BMW S1000r naked bike. If you like the MT series i think you would be pleasantly surprised with the German monster. Lol!
I use Adobe Premiere! 👍🏼 And I’d love to try an S1000R for sure, little harder to find though, haha
@@BlockheadMoto I just tried one. I'm thinking, as I'm 52 now that a move from my GSXR600 to a hyper naked might be interesting. This is why I'm loving your videos, right now. Actually, all your videos are great. Lol!
The 50+ Sportbiker
Hey man, great video. I'm thinking of buying an MT10 myself. But same as you, im not that comfortable with wheelies.. Is it like you said, if you ride in STD and the highest TC it stays planted on the road? I mean, if you drive normally and just accelerate quick. If you play with the clutch I understand that it would pop a wheelie. Im currently on the MT09 and I like that bike, with TC 2 i feel safe on the road even when i accelerate quickly. Thanks!
It definitely sounds like a speeding ticket maker awesome looking bike sounds great👍
Sounds sooo good!
I'm cross shopping the MT10 & the CB-1000R..... and honestly if the MT10 didn't sound like it does I probably would just go with the CB1000R.... that cross plane crank is just an intoxicating sound I could listen to that all day every day and never get tired of it 😩. But sound aside I like the CB1000R better in every other way. It's absolutely beautiful, the best looking naked bike on the market under $15k in my humble opinion. Honda really knocked it out of the part with their styling on those bikes. And you know that engine is going to run forever with no problems and it has all the modern bells and whistle like color TFT and the over all fit and finish is far above all the Japanese bikes and more on par with Ducati and Triumph. That CB-1000R is a very very attractive bike for so many reasons.
