The industry benchmark in Hyper Naked performance with razor sharp handling, thrilling 890cc triple-cylinder power, class-leading technology and a radical new look.
Features may include:
Aggressive next-generation styling takes the Hyper Naked look to a new level with sharper, more defined lines and minimal bodywork. A new bi-functional LED headlamp is now shrouded in a cover, creating a more compact and unified relationship with the redesigned fuel tank and tail section. The new fuel tank also sits 30mm lower for a more forward-leaning stance while maintaining the edgy street aesthetic synonymous with the MT name.
Already renowned for its engaging riding experience, ergonomics on the new 2024 MT-09 are further enhanced allowing the rider to feel more at one with the machine. In order to achieve this, handlebar position is now lower and features two customizable settings. Newly designed footrests sit slightly more rearward and are also adjustable. Combined with the lower fuel tank design, the riding position is more dedicated and steering angle is 4 degrees greater for improved low-speed maneuverability. Additionally, the new two-part seat design is slimmer for better freedom of movement and an easier reach to the ground.
A new five-inch full-color TFT display provides the rider with the option of four different themes to suit specific riding situations or individual preference. The new display is navigated through all-new integrated handlebar switches. Button shape and feel have been extensively refined to provide intuitive operation in a compact, easy-to-use solution.
Riders can now link their smartphone to the new TFT display via Yamaha's free Y-Connect app to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music (through use of an aftermarket Bluetooth® headset, not provided). Additionally, full turn-by-turn navigation is available through the Garmin® StreetCross app to make each journey easier.
A new Back Slip Regulator (BSR) reduces rear wheel lock up under engine braking by controlling the level of torque supplied to the wheel. This system shines in low-grip situations or other scenarios when it is difficult for the slipper clutch to perform.
Yamaha's renowned 890cc liquid-cooled CP3 engine is light, powerful and provides a thrilling wave of torque from low rpms. A combination of carefully tuned induction sound and distinctive crossplane triple exhaust note provides a resonance which only heightens the feeling of acceleration. Throttle valves are governed by the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) system enabling finer actuation and precise control.
