bought my mt09 few weeks ago, already got 2500 km on it. The pull this thing has is insane - I had a z900 before, although the z900 also has a lot of power, the MT09 feels as if it is even more pulling in the mid rev range. The z900 can stay longer in a gear and you can go from 50km/h in 5th gear and just give it a blast from down below whereas the MT09 needs to be a bit higher in the revs (not a fan of being in 5th gear when going rather slow). On the MT09 for me it is barely possible to have. a relaxed ride, I am always on the edge of loosing my license (-:
Its a dope bike man. Racked up 7k miles on mine already. I plan on putting 25k miles on it and then getting something like a tuono or 1290R. I wouldnt even mind another MT09, its a monster.
Got my 2021 storm fluo last year after waiting months for pre order.... 2 weeks into riding i got a speed wobble going a 65 mph and low sided lol. Waited all last season for parts. Just took it out again. Gas tank still dented but i got lucky and only cost me 800$ and some flesh on my ass. Watch out for the wobbles when pushing it. Im gonna get a crash cage n damper for mine.
I had my 21 shipped from Ohio; closer dealers wanted SO MUCH MORE for the same bike and wouldn't work with me on price as well. Found mine new for $9500 out the door and $600 to get it shipped to me in NM. This was October and I've only put 43 miles on it so far as it was nearly winter here and now it's finally warming up. Looking forward to riding!
I'm waiting for the R9. Lol I bought the 2021 MTO7. Love it. Plenty of power for me since I'm 68 now. I've owned every kind of bike in my 45 years of riding. I own 5 bikes now. 2 Harley's and 2 Yamaha's. Also a 65 Triumph chopper.
@@ItsJustJakeYT I dunno man, two very similar almost identical bikes (charactersitics wise) is a real weird thought to me. It's like you have one bike but in two different modes/setups.
Hey man love the bike, it’s an amazing piece of machinery aye. I’m not too sure if you’d want to say it and if not I’ll understand why but those gloves caught my eyes. What are they?
Picked up mine back in December and absolutely loved it. You can use the quick shifter during the break in. I didn’t use it that often but it works great. I put the Yoshimura fender delete, tank pads but still waiting on the wind screen. Either the MRA NRN race windscreen or the Puig. The Puig fits the lines of the bike better but the MRA offers more protection from the wind. They’re both on back order. I couldn’t be happier with my bike though. It’s a beast.
honestly the headlight doesn't look that bad but if they angled the running lights more like the mt-03 they could have preserved the look of the last gen slightly better and people probably wouldn't complain as much. I love my 2021 MT-09sp though, its just fun all around from the power and the sound and the nimbleness. i don't ever see myself getting bored of it.
i was in the same boat almost bought an r7 but didnt know if it was gonna be enough power. ended up getting a 2021 mt09! its got 50 miles so far and just heard about the ecu recall so i got an appointment for this friday
Yea i feel like the R7 would leave alot to be desired! I have my appointment for a week from now haha. Kind of a scary recall! Haven’t had the stall happen to me yet though!
@@kbk011 Compared to a zx6r it's slow yes, but if you ride a 500 and think it's adequate for what you use for the 07 might be a better choice than the 09. I ride a cb500f and the only reason I'd get a new bike is if Kawasaki dropped the zx4r to Europe, or something like the R7 just for the sound. If Honda gave their 500's a 270 crank I'd also be happy
Dude, I have rizoma mirrors on my new '21. You don't have to pay $230 for mirrors. My buddy has some cheap $50 "FENRIR" Chinese Amazon specials. Believe it or not, those cheap mirrors are solid. Heavy, solid, good optics! Dealers are going to be HAMMERING people on freight charges on '22's. Figure $600-$800 more just because they are paying more because of the whole world meltdown cluster F! That's why I snaped up one of the last '21's in my area and the gal gave me a bargain, almost couldn't believe it! So, there are dealers out there that will work with you but not on a new '22 mt09 they know they will sell it at full price plus freight, setup, doc fees, etc. The dealer i bought it from knew they were going to be getting '22's in so that's why I got such a good deal on mine, kinda rare. Motorsports of Olympia, Washington for anyone in the northwest.
Didnt buy expensive mirrors. Theres a local Motorsports store here in utah that has their own branded mirrors which i put on (will have a video soon). And yes the market is crazy right now, but they wanted a little over $1,300 for crate and handling fee. Which is absolutely absurd. Even with the crazy fee’s i probably still would have done it. Its mostly their attitude that drove me away
So excited putting buying it tomorrow brand new cant wait i put a deposit on it last week and going to the shop tomorrow to buy it lol should be picking it up jext week so excited 😂 cant wait
Ah the rebel's gone :( Anyhow, I need to finally upgrade my licence to the full one (EU things) and test one of these out, and the mt07. Really considering the R7 but I don't got money atm and dealers are asking 14k for these over here..
Got 350 kms on my 2022 MT09, and I ALWAYS use the quickshifter. Im still breaking it in, but I dont know why you cant use the QS? I had the 2019 before, and rode it pretty hard with the QS before the breakin period was done already. The QS doesnt put any strain on the engine, so feel free to use it! :D The downshift is so satisfying, I never use the clutch unless im driving around slow in town. Great bike, congrats! :)
@@huggybear3156 I can see the appeal in a QS, but if you get a manual vehicle, why would you not want to shift. It's like enjoying shifting but getting a car with paddleshifters.
@@Daniel-dj7fh Hi mate. I don't like shifting with the clutch and the QS and Auto blipper on this bike are great. I assume you don't own one or you wouldn't be questioning it. I raced MX many moons ago and I suppose it reminds me of that where you wouldn't use the clutch apart from at the start or in corners. Thanks
Nice bike. I have the same year and color. Mines completely stock still but have bought parts for it and waiting to get the recall fixed first. It has stalled several times and doesn't have 150 miles on it. Keep up the videos man! 👍
i bought mine 6/10 and love it as well (: only thing is the valves scare the fuck out of me lol, I always think there's a knock. The CP3 just makes a lot of weird noises in general
That's prob the best bike yamaha make at the moment, the Mt10 is amazing but fuel economy and insurance means its a liability to own. For me swap the head lights for the gen 2 and boom 💥 that's one he'll of a bike .

Its impossible to ride the bike “normally” . Thats why i bought a grom to go with it😂
I bought my 21 mt 09 while off work for an injury. I finally got to ride it and I'm in love! Congrats on finding a good deal on yours!

Sometimes its definitely better to be patient and something better will always pop up!!

Props on still riding sport bikes at almost 70!
@@Bankaimg Thank you
The headlights look sick I love em.
Came to see what your new car is and if you sold the GTI?
Congratulations! The mirrors may be ugly, but they could save your life!! Stay safe
It depends how often you do shoulderchecks, because there are enough people with mirrors who still manage to sidecut others.
Hey man love the bike, it’s an amazing piece of machinery aye. I’m not too sure if you’d want to say it and if not I’ll understand why but those gloves caught my eyes. What are they?
I believe they are the alpine stars Mustang V1’s if i remember right

So excited for this upcoming weather to ride!
The good weather is so freakin close😩
Nice bike still wondering what I choose between gen 2 or that gen 3 🤔 Hate that brake reservoir sticking out too much
I would 100% go gen 3 if you have the choice!
honestly the headlight doesn't look that bad but if they angled the running lights more like the mt-03 they could have preserved the look of the last gen slightly better and people probably wouldn't complain as much. I love my 2021 MT-09sp though, its just fun all around from the power and the sound and the nimbleness. i don't ever see myself getting bored of it.
Seat height feel?
Love it bro. I just put a deposit in on an all black 2022 MT09. Keep the videos coming!
Hell yea brother🤘🏼

I don't like the head light. Get an m4 slip on exhaust it made my fz07 sound amazing
Mt09 is a beauty and a monster performance dude. God damn loved it
that headlight screams the future
Right😂
Going to pick up my 22 Cyan one soon. 7 hr drive but couldn’t find ANY I swear on anywhere on the east coast. All out and not getting any.
Such a crappy time for bike shopping😂
@@ItsJustJakeYT no joke SUCKS! but i guess ill be happy once i get home with it haha
Congrats brother on the new wheels
Thanks!!
Man I am jealous! Lol I have a rebel 500 right now, and I’ve been looking at MT-07, MT-09 for the past couple of months now.
Get mt09, I had an fz07 and it was so slow

The dealer in Miami wanted 14500 otd for a 22 mt09. I want the Cyan Storm but not at that price.. what do u think is a fair price?
Not 14k lol
Unless you are getting an SP with a Full Akrapovic system on it, then it's alright.
So excited putting buying it tomorrow brand new cant wait i put a deposit on it last week and going to the shop tomorrow to buy it lol should be picking it up jext week so excited 😂 cant wait

Previous owner probably got spooked by something and said hell nah
Looking at the mt09 for my second bike. Got a 2017 in my area with 4k miles for $6900
Not a bad deal!
How do you feel about the z900 in comparison?
Not sure! Dont have any experience with those!
If I get a rebel 500 would it be a good upgrade to get a aprillia 660 for my 2nd bike?
I would jump straight to the 660 if thats what your planning on!
Great video, beautiful bike, congrats
I appreciate it!!

Ive already used the QS a ton after this video haha. Its addicting!

Dealer didn't tell me not to use the QS during break-in either. And I'm glad because it is sublime. I just love going through that gear box.

Yea im taking mine in tomorrow for the recall! Luckily i haven’t had it stall on me yet!
I can feel the urge to rip through gears for you 😂Glad you held out and found this one.
I was in huge dilema betwen aprilia tuono 660 and mt09,and in the end i took aprilia and I cant say i am sry..good luck bro

Yea i dont like the look or the weight of the MT10!
The more the looks grow on you, the closer you become to Cthulhu. jk, a black flyscreen makes it look way better.
Nice!
You should come rip this thing at UMC.
