@@visordown That was a really good review. You really emphasize what a true naked bike should be. Finally, Yamaha made a true MT naked bike. Perfomance wise & really looks so lit. A really proper Supernaked bike. Its like Mask Rider Black's bike if you know that character. Along with the Ducati Streetfighter & Aprilia Touno. These 3 naked bikes are the best at the moment as it has the true inpiration & appearance wise of a naked bike. 👌
Yamaha wasn't going for aesthetic beauty. This design and the design of the whole MT line is the Dark Side of Japan. You know, where all the drunks, murderers, drug dealers, prostitutes, and political criminals hang out. This bike is supposed to look like nothing else on the market, instantly recognizable as a Yamaha MT bike. Which of course people want you to think is a modern problem. Because back in the 90's, 2000's, and 2010's you couldn't tell the difference between other brands of Japanese bikes. They all looked identical because they were pretty. Now, because brands need distinction, they need to be made ugly. Actually more than likely the real issue here is a younger generation of people have taken over the Yamaha manufacturing company in Japan who have zero mindset that the older generation before them had, which if you take a look at the very OLD and DUSTY photographs back in the OLD and DUSTY internet way back a million years in 2005, Yamaha motorcycles were absolutely beautiful. I'm sorry, but beautiful things are forever. Ugly is also forever. You cannot tell me or anyone that ugly is beautiful or beautiful is ugly. These are just universal facts.
It appears that Yamaha addressed all the shortcomings of the original MT10. The styling has improved a lot too. As a Tuono V4 owner I have always liked the big Yamaha supernaked
What's up bro? I've had 5 yamys, and a shit ton of mountain bikes. Only thing I wonder is why they don't make a 325 or 350cc 4 stroke dirtbike. I like the Tuono's how's the reliability?
@@jerryphillips4203 dead reliable. As all italian thoroughbred motorcycles that I have owned, don't commute on it, don't ride it slowly, don't skip maintenance. Ride it fast as intended and it will be reliable
Excellent review! The comments are spot on - at least from my perspective as an MT10 owner. The statement about the horsepower is especially accurate. The 160+ hp MT10 has a more forceful pull in the midrange compared to the 200 hp R1. The R1 pulls harder in the top end compared to the the MT10 but that top end power has not been lost in the MT10 engine - it has been transferred to the mid-range. For a street rider this is a definite win. Sure the MT10 will go very fast, but with the upright sitting position it isn't very fun for a prolonged period. Pulling out of a fast sweeping corner in 3rd and feeling that incredible pull while the front wheel lofts is where this bike shines. It also doesn't hurt that Yamaha's bikes are very reliable compared to some of the more exotic brands. I've owned many bikes and the MT10 is my favourite.
Best bike I've ever owned and it's not even close. I've had Kawaski 636's, a GSXR750, a naked Kawi 650 and this is the most fun and most comfortable bike I've ever had. I always joke with people How if gets stolen (I live in Los Angeles) I would immediately just go out and buy the same fucking bike again. It's that good lol. Cheers!
I have a 2022 r7 as my first bike and put about 6k miles on it. I Am very excited to upgrade to the mt-10 when it hits dealerships soon! Thanks for the great video!
So you'll get an mt10 after barely any riding experience. That's a proper decision that'll go well. 😅 Damn, People these days skip CC classes and don't realize how much fun their missing out on...
What a perfect weekender! I saw the tail bag, and understand there's a tank bag and a more long-ride oriented screen. Looks incredible in black! And, yeah, that's MORE than enough power for just about any street! Great review, and nice job Yamaha!
Thanks for a great report. 2019 MT-10 owner. Glad to see Yamaha’s incremental approach to improving the bike. They are great fun and still a fantastic value. My very large local dealer pre sells all their MT-10s - so good luck getting one - but highly recommended. Sometimes my face hurts from grinning under the helmet. Not even kidding.
According to the website the tank size is still 4.5 gallons for 2022, though claimed MPG went from 30mpg to 35mpg for 2022. This means a theoretical 157 mile range, up from 135 miles in 2021. To me the lack of range was the biggest shortcoming of the bike. If fuel mileage is actually improved, that is helpful, but another gallon in the tank would be much appreciated as well.
@@georgenewman5860 True, but you are still looking at that over sized tank jutting out in front of you. One of the great VMAX features was the tank was under the seat low center of gravity!!
The 2023 MT10 SP looks are much improved with colors and chin fairing, the electronic Ohlins suspension is superb as is the motor and have no regrets selling my 2020 Tuono Factory to get one😎
He was really struggling to come up with dislikes. Came up with two half hearted, highly debatable points and quickly moved on. I test toad a 2019 a couple of years ago and still remember how much fun it was. I have a cb1000r right now, but I think the mt10 is next!
Never ride it. If you do, you'll definitely buy it the same day. Believe me, I've done over 40000kms on one since in the last 3years, it still gives me a stiffy, every single time. Will be getting the SP version this year or the next, depends on availability.
Great review! Very authentic and covered wverything I wanted to know about the bike. Glad you didn’t edit out the walk ins haha! Felt just as frustrate watching it! Plenty of power to keep up with all the competition.
Thanks for NOT editing out the boneheads walking through your video shoot. That was hilarious 😂 ! Enjoyed that. oh, and BTW, I love the effortless wheelies, and the slightly more upright riding position too. Don't like the toothpaste colored model, but the dark blue/black looks really good. Can't wait for your review of the SP version ! Oh, and I love the fly screen with LED lights too. Is that factory O.E. or aftermarket?? Looks O.E. to me. Obviously it is.
@@visordown when do you think you’ll get a hold on SP? I’ve ordered mine in the US and don’t know when it’ll arrive. But very eager to know how it will be. Also how would you compare the torque of MT10 to something like a s1000rr with shift cam? Does it pull harder than that in low rpm’s or slower? I am torn between both since they both are same price in US
I'm picking the standard model up in the coming weeks and sticking an additional 6 litre tank on the back in a top box, thar way im comfortable for touring and but have maximum satisfaction!
i watch... all the bike review videos, and this is a good one. keep it up. in the description it says you see these bikes all the time. i've never seen a single MT anything, and i would have noticed if i had. i've seen one Z900, one SV650, and everything else i've ever seen out in the wild is either a cruiser or a sportbike. they say naked is the fastest growing segment, but from what i've seen myself, they still have a LONG way to go. i agree about the 160hp thing. i don't think i even need that much to be perfectly happy. i'm considering a Street Triple RS as my next bike. i think the newest version is, for me, the perfect balance of everything i want a bike to be. well, except for looks, i suppose. the whole headlight area is not great, but not flat out bad like it was for a while.
I see plenty of MT-07s, an MT-09 here and there and hardly any MT-10s. I live in northeast Florida (year round bike weather) and MT-10 sightings are few and far between. And like you, plenty of cruisers and sportbikes. Good choice on the Street Triple. Good bike but a bit supersportish for me. I'm thinking of the new XSR900.
Great review. I'm going to ride one of these back to back with a GSXS1000GT because with a screen, the MT10 looks like it can do the sports tourer thing too.
@@raluxgaza I wish! The entire 2022 allocation of GT's has sold out in Oz, with dealers not even having demos. I think proper sports tourers have been missed.
great review! I bought a 22 streetfighter and was not my thing. I'm 5'6. never felt comfortable. This looks more upright. What is your height? Thinking this or xsr900. I love power but need comfort. Wonder if I can get risors for the bars.
Did I miss any mention about the brakes? That was an area of needs improvement on the previous generation that I’m hoping is resolved in this iteration.
I have a 2019 and find the brakes to be really great. Two fingers, nice and strong. I’m sure someone could find fault, but wouldn’t reject it over the brakes.
Nope. Watch more reviews on this bike. Brakes are still numb wooden things. I mean, back about 7 years ago the KTM 1290 had Brembo M50 calipers which could probably slow the rotation of the planet. It's not like Japan couldn't improve their OEM brakes. I mean, comon.
I have a MT07 and will upgrade soon. Soooo much competion in this catergory (KTM 1290/Triumph Speed Triple etc) but I figure this is hard to beat for the DOLLAR
You say a touring edition will be available, but the Yamaha web site does not show any panniers as accessories - only a large tail pack. Also, no touring screen is listed. The MT10 makes a brilliant sports tourer, so lets hope Yamaha step up to the mark. If I were to upgrade my 2020 model, would I be able to fit my Hepco pannier brackets? It doesn't look like it, as the rear subframe is now completely faired in with no mounting points visible. The only option would be SW Motech Blaze kit, but there's no way I would upgrade and then have to junk my existing panniers and sport-rack with tail bag. I'd either keep the bike and spend a lot less on a suspension upgrade, or simply change brands - SDR for
The reason people ask about fuel economy is because the previous version drank through gas like a starving camel. In the segment, and for the amount of power it made, it was seriously 10 miles per gallon less than the non-crossplane 4 cylinder competition. So basically you were paying a lot more in fuel cost just to have a different sound.
I'm gonna give the people who walk through the shot, a free pass. You're in a public space, and I refuse to spend my life looking for, and avoiding camera sight lines, since everyone is filming, all the time. Other than that, great review.
Gorgeous looking bike, especially the styling of the ram air. As far as Ducati, 200 hp is fun and you get to brag that you've got a Ducati. Then, at the end of the year, when you compare receipts for the upkeep, I'll just laugh and say thanks for being so friendly to my wallet Yamaha. Like he says, it's a naked bike, no wind protection, so you're not going to be going 180 mph to even care about the extra hp. With these style bikes, lower rpm grunt is where you'll spend most of your time.
So: "Before I spend 14 large on this 166 hp bike that gets horrid gas mileage in exchange for crazy performance, I was wondering if it is equipped with a speed limiter so I don't get a ticket for exceeding the limit?" !?!?!?
What's wrong with the sound? first, I thought my sound system is not properly plugged. It is like somebody forget to turn up the bass button (only low treble)
Does all that extra cubbins, really make any difference in the real world? I bought a like new Fazer 1000 for 2 grand with 9000 miles, Is it really 11 grand better?
Do you have any more info on the speed limiter. How low can you set it. What happens when you hit that speed. Is it just a smooth levelling off of the speed or is it like an on off switch. Cheers.
I love the yams ,but they are a bit too juicy compared to the competition ,especially if your using as a commuter as well ,that said I own a yam and the cp3 motor is a happy compromise .
Watching reviews for this season's bike purchase and every now and then something pops up that I'm bewildered by: UK average speed cameras? God damn, what happened to you guys? Don't you go out and vote?
I know it almost pushes it into apples versus oranges, but the Streetfighter V2 seems like an "almost" super naked while the V4 is just useless fast. It's 955 motor isn't quite a liter but it's cheaper and makes a lot more sense regardless. The MT10 is still a better all-arounder at the end of the day but the V2 feels like a better Italian alternative than the V4.
I'm guessing there's nearly 50-55 miles of tank range between them. If Suzuki hadn't put milder cams in that K5 engine this go-round, it would have every bit as much power as the MT-10.
God it is f**k ugly. I was one of the few that LOVED the original gen's angular transformer face. But these "painted on eyebrows" don't do it for me. Better fuel economy and a TFT would be nice, but I think I'll get a lightly used gen 1 and use the savings for a system, flash, and better brake pads.
I don’t get all the fuss about the styling. It’s not like the old one was such a beauty. I don’t like either but there is not such a big difference between them anyway.
Because this bike is very thirsty, very few people would want to tour on this. The ones who do already committed with aftermarket upgrades a long time ago.
@@TommyAngelo1337 Yep correct on all points. I tour on my MT10 with SW Motech Blaze panniers and a Givi box. Brilliant bike, not such good range but if you love riding it, you put up with that downside.
I bought a new ZX-6R 636 back in 2006 for less than 9 thousand dollars out the door. Prices? More like currency is failing, becoming worthless, because the Federal reserve cabal is bankrupting entire nations because they feel like it.
It could look like a bull’s rear end sewn shut with barbed wire and I wouldn’t care because it’s about how I feel after thrashing it and living to tell about it. I’ll leave the “pretty”bikes for those hoping to get a “like” on social media so they can sleep at night.
Don't listen to them, MT-10. You're a strong, independent super naked and you don't need anyone's affirmation when it comes to your looks.
Hear hear!

"I guarantee you you won't be in the hotel any sooner than me"... challenge accepted! :P
Gorgeous looking bike, especially the styling of the ram air. As far as Ducati, 200 hp is fun and you get to brag that you've got a Ducati. Then, at the end of the year, when you compare receipts for the upkeep, I'll just laugh and say thanks for being so friendly to my wallet Yamaha. Like he says, it's a naked bike, no wind protection, so you're not going to be going 180 mph to even care about the extra hp. With these style bikes, lower rpm grunt is where you'll spend most of your time.
Are brakes still sqishy?
It go zoom!! This is on my list for my third or next!!
But does it sound as good as the old MT10... that thing sounded better than the last two gens of R1.
This bike cannot come to the US fast enough!
So: "Before I spend 14 large on this 166 hp bike that gets horrid gas mileage in exchange for crazy performance, I was wondering if it is equipped with a speed limiter so I don't get a ticket for exceeding the limit?" !?!?!?
What's wrong with the sound? first, I thought my sound system is not properly plugged. It is like somebody forget to turn up the bass button (only low treble)
Does all that extra cubbins, really make any difference in the real world? I bought a like new Fazer 1000 for 2 grand with 9000 miles, Is it really 11 grand better?
"c'mon walk thru the shot" "nahh fuk off mate it was a joke 🤣
I think ima gonna get the new 2023 MT 10 SP !!!!!! GETTING SICK Of Harley Davidsons price gouging bikes and I'm 48 yrs old !!!!
Do you have any more info on the speed limiter. How low can you set it. What happens when you hit that speed. Is it just a smooth levelling off of the speed or is it like an on off switch. Cheers.
I am contemplating trading my tuono for it .
I love the yams ,but they are a bit too juicy compared to the competition ,especially if your using as a commuter as well ,that said I own a yam and the cp3 motor is a happy compromise .
Watching reviews for this season's bike purchase and every now and then something pops up that I'm bewildered by: UK average speed cameras? God damn, what happened to you guys? Don't you go out and vote?
I wonder if you could fit the old lights and bits to this one. They didnt improve the front look
I disagree!
I know it almost pushes it into apples versus oranges, but the Streetfighter V2 seems like an "almost" super naked while the V4 is just useless fast. It's 955 motor isn't quite a liter but it's cheaper and makes a lot more sense regardless.
The MT10 is still a better all-arounder at the end of the day but the V2 feels like a better Italian alternative than the V4.
Now they just need to put fairings on the mt10. And not the r1
Good review Toad, how do you rate it against the new GSXS1000?
Much more bike for the money, and it feels a bit more special. Both are very good value though, it's not an easy choice.
@@visordown thanks, I’m thinking the MT10 may be my next bike🤞
I'm guessing there's nearly 50-55 miles of tank range between them. If Suzuki hadn't put milder cams in that K5 engine this go-round, it would have every bit as much power as the MT-10.
God it is f**k ugly. I was one of the few that LOVED the original gen's angular transformer face. But these "painted on eyebrows" don't do it for me. Better fuel economy and a TFT would be nice, but I think I'll get a lightly used gen 1 and use the savings for a system, flash, and better brake pads.
Awesome bike
Jesus Christ it looks like a pair of crab eyes with its shell removed
What's the top speed of every gear? On the FZ09 I was in mostly 2nd because it was geared very tall up to 80 MPH in 2nd gear
Does anyone know if the ECU will still have easy access like previous years for the 2022 mt 10?
I don’t get all the fuss about the styling. It’s not like the old one was such a beauty. I don’t like either but there is not such a big difference between them anyway.
Are those the eyes or the eyebrows?
Both I'd say. Good point. Me likey.
Will there be an SP model?
Did you listen to this video?
Hi, what is your height?
30 mpg?? So when you say it’s 13000 “pounds” you mean that’s what it weighs?
do a comparation video with new GSX-S 1000
Why don’t Yamaha do a Tracer version of the MT10?
Because this bike is very thirsty, very few people would want to tour on this. The ones who do already committed with aftermarket upgrades a long time ago.
@@TommyAngelo1337 Yep correct on all points. I tour on my MT10 with SW Motech Blaze panniers and a Givi box. Brilliant bike, not such good range but if you love riding it, you put up with that downside.
Prices have gone mad, I paid just under 10k for mine when they first came out in 2016. £78 quid a month on PCP 🤣
I bought a new ZX-6R 636 back in 2006 for less than 9 thousand dollars out the door.
Prices? More like currency is failing, becoming worthless, because the Federal reserve cabal is bankrupting entire nations because they feel like it.
It could look like a bull’s rear end sewn shut with barbed wire and I wouldn’t care because it’s about how I feel after thrashing it and living to tell about it. I’ll leave the “pretty”bikes for those hoping to get a “like” on social media so they can sleep at night.
Correct sir 👍🏻
I want one I'll just keep my FZ1. Can't sell it. Just cant.
Triumph called, they want their drl’s back.
Yamaha MT Tank
My 2018 is just fine 🤦🏻♂️
Reply me comment tell me price of this bike 🥺🥰
