I just came across a '22 at a dealer at a solid discount... came from struggling around on a TW200 after selling my Ninja 650 and missing the ability to ride out to good roads. I absolutely love it. I'm dealing with the wind on the interstate because it keeps me humble and below 80mph, and the roads in SE Missouri are what this thing is built for. I wish it had a helmet lock because it doubles as a great city commuter lol. When I rode it off the showroom floor it was set up in D-mode 4 and I thought it had so much power, and then I read the owner's manual and holy crap, I don't think I'll ever need more power than this. It's only been a week and I've already racked up 2k miles and seen more of the countryside than ever before and it's been the best experience riding I've ever had. What an amazing machine. Your video has really only reaffirmed what I've been thinking since I bought it.
I’m ordering a 2024 version, from the specs and looks of it, it looks like a more modern version of my Honda 919 I had when I was in my early 20’s. I can’t wait to get it!
Great review, glad to see you're enjoying the bike, hoping to collect mine in two weeks so praying the Irish weather holds out for another while to give me a chance to get a few miles on 😄
That's a lot of miles to put on the bike in 5 months! Its nice to watch a review that is truly a review. Thanks for the video!
Nice review.. you picked the perfect road for it. Hope the next 10K is as smooth.
Great video man, I love my 2021 MT09! Got it this july, i got about 1400 miles and had to replace my rear tire at 400 miles do to a nail as well lol:(
Can't wait to hear how that bad boy sounds with that yoshimura exhaust, I recommend getting the TechSpec tank grips they make huge difference on how the bike feels especially on twisties :)
Awesome review. I’ve had my SP for about 4 weeks now & could relate to basically everything you’ve mentioned. Just cracked 2k miles also so I’ve been riding at about the same pace as you but seasons coming to an end soon. Safe riding brother
That is a beautiful scenery to drive,i truly envy you dude.May the gods of two wheels bless you with long and happy drives in twisting back roads.
I've had mine since May and am also loving it. I just use the trip meter to help me determine when I need to fuel up. I'm averaging around 50 mpg so not too shabby. Thanks for the video.
Thorough review, I just got my 2021 2/22 and we’ll done Yamaha! This bike does EXACTLY what it was intended to do, no need for mods IMO. Stay safe
We must be pretty close. I’m in Hot Springs and got mine last April and put a little over 4K miles on it. Great roads around here! Nice video!
My SP just got delivered today, finally! Can't wait to ride it, this was a sick video while I wait.
I bought a 16 MT09 last September, I absolutely fell in love with this bike. Just when on a right through the north tip of the black forest. Beautiful bike, hella fun in the twisties and a great sound. Nice video and thanks for the review!
Super fun bikes for sure, the Yamaha triple sound is in my top ten list
Thank you for the review! Can't wait for my bike to come in!
I found a good 2021 MT-09 used that I'm picking up this weekend. If the bike is as advertised, I will buy it. This is one of the best videos I watched on this bike. Thank you for this.
Right on man! Coming from sport bikes, I am having so much fun with this motorcycle. You just can’t have more fun on the street than with this. NW Arkansas rocks too. Get that way sometimes.
Great video! I’ve had my 21 mt09 since June of 2021. It’s my first bike and I’ve put just over 2800 miles on it. Absolutely love it. I’ve been trying to figure out the lif control on it for about 2 weeks and it’s been making me nervous because I believed it was supposed to allow the bike to come up to set heights and idk why. Glad to hear you say it allows it to come up at a different speed because I thought I was doing something wrong haha.
That brake reservoir has to go! It would drive me nuts looking at it rattling away!
It shakes to aerate the oil mate
@@donyp123 lol.... just what we all long for, air in our brake lines!
@@ronedee I agree! what’s the options for moving it?
@@juanriver2719 ...good question ⁉️ I guess if I owned it I would have a solution. Maybe a solid steel or aluminum reservoir? They might eventually corrode, but....
th-cam.com/video/wZs0Cj_EwQ4/w-d-xo.html
Great work and really interesting real life long term review, only had my 2021 MT09 for three weeks and 350 miles. Agree with all the points you made, and your comment about the fuel gauge made me chuckle.....mine shows full until 80 something miles then 25 miles later shows reserve 😄 but as you say it's a great bike. Cheers from the UK 👍
Definitely got caught off guard by the fuel gauge before. I got to see how many mpg you can get out of it while on reserve lol
Fantastic deep review, thanks!
Awesome video. Keep the good video coming. Done subscribed! Just got mine like 2 months ago.
Amazing roads you have there
Having just bought one of these and having just come from a year with an Aprilia RS660 I can confirm that the quick shifter on this is definitely more smooth. It’s one of the first things I noticed.
How does it compare to RS660 overall?
10k miles in 5 months. Wow. I ride more than most people and you ride 3x as much as me. My hat is off to you. Respect.
Yeah 2000 miles a month is a nice weather month 😂 I usually do 400+ miles a week for fun
Good commentary and amazing roads. Video kept my interest and smooth edits.
Please give an update about the metal in the oil on your next oil change. I just bought one and I'm waiting on delivery of it. I'm super curious as to what you're going to find this time. Should be nothing but I guess we'll see
I did a demo on it one and was also surprised about the stock exhaust note!
It seems to me to be a totally stupendous bike. I will have a test ride before bad weather sets in and plan to buy one in spring. Total bargain, with Yam reliability. A small screen perhaps, to improve the look of the (technical term) front of the bike? Looks fine to me, anyway. Safe riding.
Nice review. 33:14 A detail, they didn't move the steering head a miniscule amount, but rather 30 mm, or 1.18 inches, lower.
hello ,.. congratulations ,.. beautiful machine ,.. I love the mt 09 ,.. and I still don't have it,.. I'm still on the 07 ,.. which is also very good and fun,.. and even easier , ..but the 09 is another level, no doubt ,.. and really impressed ,.. 5 months ,.. 10 thousand miles ,.. that is, more or less what I've done on the 07 in 2 years ,.. . currently with 13,000 kms ,.. let's see if one day I can go up in the category and it would certainly be another (mt ) in the case, the new mt 09 ,..I love all the mods and improvements in relation to the previous model, it's practically a brand new motorcycle,.. and very well made !!!
Good review, thank you! You can still exploit the bike‘s full potential by making some modifications to the weight, exhaust system and the fueling of the engine 😎🏁🏁✌️
Great video and sound also.
Super review!
Love the Pig Trail. Also a great ride is around PINNACLE Mnt up to Wye mnt and make the loop back down 10. LOTS of twist and turns an hills. Thinking of getting one or a 2022 xsr900. Miss the 2005 FZ1 I traded for the 15 Fj-09. The seat was a plank though. After shattering my ankle (not on bike) sold the FJ. Now having withdrawls after riding 24 years. Even if just short rides for my PTSD.
great road you're riding. really good bike
I have a 2020 Mt-09, I haven’t driven the new generation yet but I can say the 2020 is still very smooth and reliable, and lots of fun, the Mt-09 is just an all around great bike no matter what generation it is
Nobody cares about your old model lmao
Especially as an SP with a few mods - it is lots of fun in the twisties and up the high mountain passes😎🏁🏁
That’s an awesome road to ride!
I’m so sorry but I had to do some stretches had me dying. Great vid. You speak very well and I feel as if I have learned so much just from this video.
Great video and what a nice roads!…..I can only dream of that in my (too) crowded Netherlands.
Initially I was considering a Tracer 9 to be my next bike, but I am slowly moving to change it to be a MT09. Not doing that much highway distances anymore,
One thing I notices on your video; the wobbly brake fluid reservoir which is situated quite well in your “view”. Once I start noticing; I could not get my eyes off it😉
Is it that distracting/annoying in real life too?
Honestly I don't even notice it, it's barely above the bottom part of my helmet in my vision and it looks further away in real life than on the gopro
@@blakehutslar23 Thanks mate...good to know!
Excellent video. Yamaha states use quick shifter up after 2200 rpm
Thanks for such an informative and real world review! Obviously you didn’t go for the SP version and so I’m assuming the standard MT09 is absolutely fine for most riders and the extra fancy suspension isn’t necessary in most riding situations? Thanks again👍
On the street the sp suspension would be a nice to have but definitely not a necessity. The mt09 is already very flickable with the wide handlebars and I haven't felt it get unsettled in any tight corners even with the pegs scraping. Sp suspension would definitely help when at the limit but for street riding within reasonable limits the base suspension is completely fine.
Great review!
There is a high degree of airbox resonance that you hear so an exhaust will only add mode luscious sounds.
Did you ever think that it may be even better with a suspension set up?
For street use I don't think I can outside the suspension under instant jail speeds, this new generation is supposed to have a lot better suspension compared to the last one. Also there's always the SP model if you want the best factory suspension for the mt09
thanks for the review. I've owened a 2014 FZ-09 and my biggest gripe was the tank size. This one is 14l as well correct? How has that been for you? They are reportedly better on fuel than the previous two gens.
Hey man. How's the reliability with the 2014 model? I'm thinking of getting a used 2018 soon. It's got 14k kms on the clock.
@@Brian_R6 if you’re asking me Brian, very good.
My 2014 gave me zero issues.
I also bought a Fj-09, and loved that bike. 18k km with zero issues. The suspension sucks on the bikes but if you fix that the rest is pure riot!
Thanks
Greg
@@otmuppet it was actually to Greg lol but thanks man I appreciate the response. I checked the bike out she starts and idles great. It's got the akrapovic carbon exhaust with a dyno jet PV3 tune as well. Bodywork , suspension, forks and seals as well as wheels and tires chain and sprockets are all great. So I shouldn't have any issues then.
@@Brian_R6 I’m the Tenerist 😀.
Glad it checks out. If it doesn’t look abused good maintenance record, you’re laughing.
Enjoy it.
If you find the suspension lacking traxxion dynamics do drop in cartridges. They transformed my FJ09.
Also rear shock from tractive. Ted at the beemer shop in Cali can help you with the shock
Hey nice presentation! Don't you feel air gusts hitting hard on you at top speed without any windshield protection at front?
I personally wouldn't even max out this bike because of how bad the wind gets and it makes the front end feel very light above 90ish
Its kinda normal when its new. Thats why its better to change at 300 km then at 1000 then at 5000km. Also the filter my two cents. Greetings from Greece. Almost convinced to order it!
Awesome reviews,is this CP3 engine consume/burn engine oil? Do u top up engine oil ? Thanks
I have a tracer with the CP3 and never put any oil in, from one service to the next.Its been the same with all my Japanese bikes.
Yep same as Mark, I check the level pretty often and I've never had to add any
Great review! Although my OCD kicked in and I was trying to count how many times you switched off your turn signals for no reason :P
If I had a dollar for every time I hit it I'd be in a different tax bracket
I came here to ask if he'd replaced his turn signal switch yet 😅. He's got more miles on that switch than he does the bike.
i had a 2015 MT09 and it was fun to drive. But as higher the milage as mote problems came around and it was present to the whole series. The enginge starts to run rough on continuous hold of the throttel when you had a milage over 10.000 miles. And lots of riders complaint about it so hard and i have concerns that the new one get same issues with time, because the changes in the enginge are only based by the larger internal.
Nice video. PS: You press the indicator button very often
I'm sitting right at 12,900 miles on it, so far everything performs pretty much how it did when it was new but the exhaust seems like it's a little louder which isn't a bad thing imo. Also I know, it's a subconscious habit lol
@@blakehutslar23
After 20’000+ miles my 2020 SP runs better than ever 😃🏁🏁
Hey man, I bought the 2021 MT-09 aswell and have been wondering about other exhausts. Can you make an updated video on the exhaust you ordered? About the sound etc.?
I actually canceled my order after making this video for a number of reasons. I thought it might be too loud for all day rides, I like that I can get on it pretty hard with the stock exhaust without alerting the whole county, and I ordered a 2022 camaro 1le that I figured would be a better option to put the $700 towards. As of now still have the stock pipes
@@blakehutslar23 Ah okay.. Still great video with an honest review man, appreciate your comment also :)
Good luck finding an exhaust.
I'm getting an MT-09SP soon. From Rogers, if you can help me with what gear, or accessories that are needed. I know I want tank pads and slider or crash bars. Windshield just for Texas commute, and a screen protector, other than that, what would you recommend. I know exhaust is most people's responses hahaha
I haven't really done anything to mine other than replacing worn/punctured tires and changing the oil. If you're gonna be riding it to Texas from Rogers I'd definitely get some commuter tires on it, a lot of people like the Michelin Road 5's. The stock tires are awesome but they don't last super long. Are you gonna be riding the interstate all the way down there? If so, have you ridden a naked bike for long periods on the interstate? Even with a windshield I feel like it wouldn't be a very enjoyable ride lol. I did a 40 minute stint of interstate once and that was about all I wanted to do but I also don't have a windscreen.
Great review pal . Have mine now since start of May and have 5k miles up on her including a trip to southern France from Ireland. Little screen on the front turns the bike into a bearable highway machine for extended runs. Also i dumped the S22's after 5 (yes 5) rear punctures in 4k miles don't know if i was unlucky or the tyre is too soft for road riding but now have pilot roads on for 1k miles and zero punctures thus far.
@Jonathan so I've read a lot of people mentioning getting punctures on these bikes tyres. I've also got a rear tire puncture. I was thinking I was just unlucky but now I'm not sure. I check my air pressure once a week. I have started putting more air into them then I normally would. Luckily it was a skinny nail near the middle & I had it patched from the inside. 🍻
First screw I got at 400 miles, a just stuck a rope plug in it and called it a day lol. Everything else had been either a giant bolt of went through the top and out the sidewall
Just noticed ur comment, and I agree about the tyres being soft, they do seem to have good grip but I think if I was to change them probably would go for pilot 4 or 5 because I have experience with them on a Tracer 700
@@TheBrohamBikerMT ah.. good to know! 👍
@@SophiaSocalMoto I personally recommend the pilot road 4's great tyre lol 😆
got mine a few weeks ago and it feels like the best street bike ever, definetly worth falling and hurting yourself for if you ask me lmao
Think out of the naked style bikes this would be my pick! Awesome bike.
10k miles in 5 months?!🤯 I have a 2017 FZ09 with just over 500 miles. Can’t stop deploying so that and my 2017 Grom take care of my garage. Their like garage watch dogs.
Hey there. 10k since May! Dang.. I got my SP around then but lost about a month of riding but still, I'm only at 4k. I was also commuting on it though. I've made a couple.. um changes to mine. 😬 I might have a problem 🤭 I do like finding a reason to wrench on my bikes though. I enjoyed hearing others input on this bike. It's by far the best handling moto I've ever owned. & I've had 7 now. Btw my windscreen works great. I need it though. To get anywhere nice.. or to work. Always on the HWY. 👍
I feel like I'm basically addicted to riding this bike, if the weather's good I'm on it after work every day lol
@@blakehutslar23 🤭 I kinda got that impression too 🤭
@@SophiaSocalMoto it's just such a good bike lol, hard to stay off of it
@@blakehutslar23 I completely understand that! 🍻
I wish I had roads like that near me
Good review,
The one thing that would seal the deal for me is a hydraulic clutch and top of the line suspension. KTM has spoiled me with features, but the reliability and customer service are awful IMO( I'm not exaggerating). I think the mt-09 will be my next bike.,
Have you ridden the 07? I got my 07 last year but I keep finding myself wishing I got an 09
Haven't had a chance to check one out but they're both good bikes, mt07 probably has a little more low end grunt compared to the 09 but they both can reach illegal speeds very quickly lol
Does the handle bar twitch when you go over 80? Seems like that's the problem of all the naked bike 😞 what you recommend for interstate riding?
Doesn't necessarily twitch, it's definitely not something you'd want to ride at 80 on the interstate very long though. The front end does feel pretty light No wind protection starts getting to you after a while. Honestly might be kinda unpopular opinion but for pure interstate without top speed in mind you can't really go wrong with a fully dressed bagger or something like a goldwing. Basically the couches of the interstate lol
@@blakehutslar23thank you a lot for your input, goldwing here in my country is about $50k and this mt 09 is about $18k so I kinda consider getting a naked for all around purpose, but since I'm mostly get on to interstate with around 80mph (80 is my top speed, normally I just go 50 60) I'm thinking of getting a sport touring like ninja 650, the cb500x is too big for casual riding
What about the annoying chain cam tensioner noise at startup (cold engine)? Also yours does?
Yep, it definitely makes some noise on cold starts. It really never goes away completely, it just gets less severe when the bikes warmed up and its only really noticeable over the exhaust/wind at 0-5 mph
You mentioned first gear engine braking is pretty hard. Does it feel smooth at taking off and ridding at slow speeds? I ride an MT07, I love the bike it is fun. But it feels like every time I get off a stop it can't be ridden slow or chill. It needs to go fast from one stop to the other, which for an everyday commute it gets kinda tiring. I am looking into the CB650R for the inline four, that supposedly has smoother low end since the power is more on the higher revs. But I have always wanted an MT09 and would love to have the extra power, but I am just afraid that it will feel like the MT07 that is always asking for it to be ridden hard at low speeds, can't just take off smoothly at a decent speed.
It doesn't really get wild until you get over 5,000 rpm, I don't have footage of it but I've been in stop and go traffic and been through extremely tight city streets and its fine. Honestly it feels really good right at idle speed in first and it's so well balanced that you can basically be stopped without having to put a foot down. If you don't ring it out going from stoplight to stoplight and stay below the powerband (~5,000) it's pretty smooth but still torquey
@@blakehutslar23 Nice, I would love to be able to test ride it, but there isn't any place near me to test ride. They are pretty much gone as soon as they get to the dealer. The MT07 is fun and torquey, but from 1st to 3rd gear, it is always asking you to ride it hard, the bike doesn't chill.
How many tyres? you need to look at tyre plugs, saves a fortune. My current Ninja has about 8 plugs. That would have cost me well over £1500 if not for plugs.
In your 10,000 miles have you had the bike stall or engine cut out at low speeds when you pull the clutch in?
Nope, never had the engine die with the clutch in
I had engine stall on me twice,and I don't consider it to be a problem.Probably too lean mixture in low rpm. I had yamaha xt660r and that bike had absolute garbage of fueling system,quite dangerous on wet and slippery surfaces,every bike after that peace of s..t is golden!
I had engine stalling twice also. But both times on slow speeds so no issue. So far in 3k miles had no issues on higher speeds 🤞. Also my cruise control stopped working
It's normal for a little metal to collect on the magnetic drain bolt. Alot or large chunks would be a concern
Wasn't on the bolt, passed a magnet over it as well and nothing stuck to it so it was aluminum. Also didn't have any at the first few oil changes so it's weird to me
My r1 1st gear goes to 105mph, stock gearing and gps verified 😉.. also you can just get adjustable rearsets for a sport bike to fix the leg crampiness
Every new motorcycle I’ve had has had shavings at the first oil change. Usually shows on the draw plug. That being said, all cleared after breakin oil change.
Puig windscreens are nice check them out I gotnew generation sport but they do have a taller touring model
I was just at the dealership. They only have the grey ones in the 2023 model which is about $600 dollars cheaper for the exact same bike compared to the 2024 model. I really like the Yama racing blue theme though so I think I’ll suck it up and take the 2024 model. The MT07 is heaps of fun. It’s a great bike to both start and finish on. You really don’t need any more than that.
Ps. My only complaint on this bike is that the 1st gear is way too short. You need to shift as soon as the wheel starts rolling tbh.
thinking about trading in my 2023 zx6r for a 2023 mt09 sp. my zx6r is setup so nice, with an exhaust, filter, flash, puig windscreen, carbon pieces etc and absolutely rips and pulls like a train up to 150-160 but its just so uncomfortable for city riding.
no problem with the ECU software? were called by yamaha for resofting, the engine suddenly stops!
if you give it like a millimeter of twist on the throttle to take off from a stop (or even with the clutch in) it'll try to die. Has only really happened 4 or 5 times to me though. I've just been driving around it up till now. Haven't had any issues above idle yet
Seriously you mention ordering a yoshi system, and you haven't done a video of her with the moore mafia ECU flash and the yoshi :(
Yoshi pre order got canceled. Used the money towards the down payment on a 22 ss 1le Camaro. Also constantly having the debate with myself on whether or not it would be worth it to give up the "under the radar" noise levels. The lack of sound (which it still sounds great as is) combined with high viz jacket and the bike not looking as fast as it is help me appear like less of a squid missile lol.
if it handles perfectly don't soften the suspension that's the issue that my 2017 had now im picking up my 2022 in 2 days.
How tall are you bro ? I’m 6,1” just trying to figure out the ergonomics
Great video brother 👌🏽
5'11 and it's not cramped or anything at all really
@@blakehutslar23 nice one brother ! Ordered a 23 so keen for it to arrive. 🙏🏽
10000 miles ? 5 month review !! 😮🤙🏻
I’m seriously thinking about getting one myself.Any problems with the bike so far?God bless and take care.👍🏻
Bikes been great, sitting at 22,000 miles without any problems. Currently replacing the stock chain/sprockets which I was surprised they lasted as long as they did.
I’m 5,6”” you think I will have a problem riding this bike?Thanks for the fast reply.
@william makowsky should be fine, I'm 5'11" and can flat foot it fine but I usually just keep the left foot down and the right foot on the brake when stopped anyways
How does it sound with the Yosh pipe
Looks like a fun environment too. I feel like this bike wouldnt be as fun driving downtown in a congested city like I am in....I think a sport bike will have to be my retirement plan.
does ylur seat got side to side like it lose
Would you consider a remap for more torque down low?
I actually kinda enjoy the way that the power band is, it helps it not be super touchy when riding in town and when you're on a good road you don't really even notice it if you're in the right gear. Plus it's a cool sensation if you do give it the beans at a lower rpm, feels like you're jumping to light speed. For the most part first gear is short enough that it's basically all powerband, and in any other gear you can always downshift
Wait you are in NWA? I just picked up a 2023 MT-09 and now watching this video 😅
Yep, this is a great area to have a motorcycle in for sure.
What kind of oil are you running? Thanks
I've been running the recommended yamalube 10w40 in this one, I've ran Castroil 4 stroke motorcycle oil in my dr650 without any issues but since this bike was brand new and I got the 5 year warranty I wanted to make sure I stuck to the manual
It’s Beastmode time
Very Cool bike😎
How many times is the turn signal cancel pushed?
I think there were only two times where I actually needed the turn signal, so probably like 100 or so 😅
@@blakehutslar23 its all good. I always hated looking down and noticing that my turn signal was on for the last hour.....haha
I really like this bike but I can’t get over that headlight. It would look better if the headlight was a bit lower down.
If the yosh at2 has a removable baffle (db killer), it will be PLENTY loud enough. I have a yosh r77 on my '18 mt09 and without baffle it is LOUD, too loud. With the db killer in, it makes it way more acceptable from idle to about 7k and then it sounds f ing awesome to redline.
I actually canceled my order after making this video for a number of reasons. I thought it might be too loud for all day rides, I like that I can get on it pretty hard with the stock exhaust without alerting the whole county, and I ordered a 2022 camaro 1le that I figured would be a better use for the $700
What's your mpg like?
Average is 44.5mpg
It the original suspension wobble when corner?
That was more of a Gen2 thing. The Gen3 the front was lowered a bit and more weight to the front tire which helps keep it planted in the turns.
It’s funny you mention the nails..every other block in Fayetteville has construction zones
Same goes for Raleigh Durham 🤦🏽♂️
Completely random, but how do you like living in Arkansas?
North West Arkansas is pretty nice, also lived in Central which is a lot more flat and swampy so not as nice.
@@blakehutslar23 cool - thanks. Arkansas is one of those places you don't hear about too often, everyone just talks about CO or NC nowadays, but the NW AR looks lovely. Btw, put down a deposit for a xsr900 which is similar to your mt09 :)
Just hit 2500 miles in mine
I want one I'm here in NWA also
Mines done 2400 miles and rattles and clunks horribly! Think it’s a lemon so trying to swop it out!
If I was you every time I change my oil I would also change the filter it’s such a slight cost I don’t understand why you would do it every other oil change?.
Was just going off of what the manual recommends, the oil filter didn't have anything in it when I did change it. Yamaha dealer cut it open to check for metal but it was clean
What MPG have you been getting?
Averaging 44.5mpg
@@blakehutslar23 That's decent. Thanks.
@JSLAK 45-50mpg here.. you can get up to 60mpg if you really try.
How did you do 10k miles in a month I do that in a year and I ride to work
Was 5 months at that point. It doesn't hurt to have a lot of fun roads nearby either
I Played a drinking game with vodka every time indicators were cancelled. Am now faceshitted. 🍸🍻🍺🥂
What jacket do you wear?
Fly Racing street Terra Trek. Originally bought for my dualsport as it's more of an adventure jacket but it's become my everything jacket. It has a removable thermal liner for cold weather but in winter I still have to wear another jacket underneath, but doing that will keep my core warm long enough for my hands to freeze. Pretty decent in hot weather as well, has two large chest vents, wrist slit vents, and rear vents. Decently water resistant when all the vents are closed. When it's above 90° it's a little warm but I just leave it less zipped up in the front. I've worn it in temperatures from -12° to 102°.... probably wouldn't do either of those extremes again but it still did about as good as you would expect for a 4 season jacket lol.
@@blakehutslar23 thanks
I love my yoshi AT2 but I had to buy the insert it was kind of too loud for my neighbor, without it is awesome
I ended up going with a dominator hp3 system, love how it sounds without the silencer in it but I definitely need to buy some better earplugs 🙃
Have you tried it against the new z900
Haven't had a chance. Both are supposed to be pretty good bikes though
@@blakehutslar23 the super thin aluminum frame makes me feel uneasy with the new MT. The z900 uses a tubular steel frame. I just think that the stresses could build up over time to failure( a characteristic of aluminum) from such a wheelie happy hooligan bike. Steel doesn't build up stresses. So if it doesn't break the first time it's not gonna break over time.
you should mess with the suspension it's really unbalance stock,you need to soften the rear and harden the front
it goes into the turn a lot better
