    I switched from a cbr1000rr to a fz 09. I love the power delivery and torque of the fz09 . Fun factor is a lot more than a superbikes. Superbikes only got the top speed beat on this which I don't care for I hardly ever go faster than 100mph. I just swapped out the exhaust pipe and handlebars with pro tapers and bar end mirrors. Got a ECU flash and now it's the best bike I have ever owned.

      Awesome! 👏
      Did the exact same thing but with an R1 to this. Only thing is the seller thought A was B mode, so it has more Yeet but I took it “easy” lol
      It’s intimidating and I don’t have that windscreen/cockpit false sense of security like I do with a sport bike.
      It’s nice having the best of both worlds
      Cruisers All TQ, Low HP
      Rockets All HP, Low TQ (except for litres) but ya need speed like ya sd
      This is just as fun as it is good looking
      It’s like grabbing the horns of a bull after you kick it in the nuts!

    I have a 16 that I bought new, Armor Gray with the fancy yellowish wheels. I've owned many sport bikes throughout my life. I came off an R1 and went to the FZ09. I got really tired of the discomfort of sport bikes. I'll tell you even after owning this bike a couple years it still puts a smile on my face. Seat comfort sucks for really long rides until you switch it out. Also, the wind resistance does suck at higher speeds, but everything else is better in my opinion as far as usability and comfort. This bike has a little bit of everything for a reasonable price. It's a really good bang for your buck by far!

Just because the bike is capable of filthy power and speeds - that doesn't mean you have to do it.

      Don't forget years of experience. Getting a licence and doing a safety course is no substitute for "bum on seat" experience. Hate elitist mentality. Having paper certification isn't an opt out of putting in the hours of honning your skills. That said some riders who have ridden for years are just as mediocre as their first day riding on full licence. Getting your licence is only the first step.

    I switched to naked sport bikes after riding off and on for over two decades on the street, and almost 10 years on the dirt before i could get a motorcycle license. I liked my cbr 600 and some of my other bikes, but i do prefer naked bikes now. Both for cost, and my back. From now on i will try to get hold over naked sport bikes. I also find i have more fun at reasonable speeds on these types of bikes. Sure i might get going kind of quick, but i can have fun at not lose my license and life speeds now.

    It's an awesome bike! I have the 2018 MT-09, been riding it in `B` and `Standard` modes for the first 3000 km. `A` mode is completely HOOLIGAN, the front wheel just won't stay on the asphalt.
    Definitely not a bike suitable as your first bike...even if you have ABS, TCS and the B mode. I've had 12k km done on a Honda Hornet as a beginner, now I feel like this MT-09 is ALL you could ever want from a bike.
    The only problem with this bike is that it has so much torque and lower-mid range power, the front is so light(actually the whole bike feels light as a bicycle) that you are compelled to get to the dark side of just wheelie-ing the shit out of it. :)) As someone mentioned in one of the comments, this bike will turn any average and self-controlling biker into a hooligan. It just does, there is no other way to ride it.

    Great, informed review man, thanks! Been lusting after it, and probably gonna get it. Have all the concerns you and others have mentioned, I just don't want it to be so spirited that it is annoying, I do like to tour as well so wind protection is giving me some pause. Instability at 100 also makes me a bit less interested I suppose. Hm. Z900 is also on my short list.

    Hey it's Brian from Ohio Cleveland more specifically couple weeks ago you introduced on your channel the new 2019 Yamaha Niken I commented that it was based off the fzo7, I stand corrected the engine is based off the fzo9 yes it's the triple inline not the parallel-twin thanks always following your videos especially your newer 89 Honda Goldwing or whatever year video you say 1991 great bike had the money I'd buy it but I don't have the garage space for it

    Spot on describing this bike!! I had a 2016 blue FZ09 and put a few thousand miles on it,, super light super twitch but like you said at highway speeds no fairings at 100 plus it was too hard to deal with,, besides I like doing sustainable speeds of 120mph on the open road, so sold it with 6k and grabbed a used R6 and love it !!

    Was thinking of upgrading my cbr500r to a cbr600rr, but this video might just have changed my mind. The hp increase will take some getting used to but I've been riding the cbr for a few years and I've definitely found it's limits by now. Thanks for this and God bless from your newest subscriber

    • @jessiecoleman9351
      @jessiecoleman9351 5 місяців тому

      Look into a cb650r , I had a cbr600rr and my fz09 feels way more powerful with a slight twist of the throttle, but a 600 is different up top, if I could start over again I’d definitely try a cb650. 2cyl, 3cyl, 4cyl all ride differently regardless of the cc size.

  • @SuperLEEEDWARDS
    @SuperLEEEDWARDS 5 років тому +1

    Hi guys did you know that there;s an Australian company called Extreme Creations that do a turbo kit for these and it makes an extra 40whp,they started doing it on the MT/FZ07 which from the full power model 75HP made 115whp then turned the boost up and made 135whp, Watch the vid because its a simple installation but needs a dyno and powercommander. The MT/FZ 09 was making close to 180WHP and that as you know is CARZY POWER for these bikes with standard internals and i was surprised how cheap the kit is at around 2500 US for the mt07.
