- This is the evolution of the mt-09. Fixed the sensitive throttle, fixed the vague front suspension, and crated a cracking adventure-ish bike.
It is also TERRIFYING.
See until the end, there is some insane footage there.

You are by far the best reviewer on youtube. I honestly think its the language barrier that makes you explain things much differently that others and I think that helps a lot. Thanks for this!
I am test riding this bike tomorrow. I am looking forward to making some interesting excited noises just like you did! It looks awesome!
You sold me this bike! Your ever optimistic style is very uplifting and a joy to watch, thank you. As for the idiot at the end of the video...I lost count of the number of offences he would have committed in the UK. At least a full disqualification from driving and a section 2, RTA for Dangerous driving, an idiot who gives us motorcyclists a bad name.
Superb presentation as always. Keep up with this kind of reviews!
Absolutely love your reviews. Keep them coming. The riding at the end of this is absolutely nuts. Your enthusiasm makes these reviews really fun, you can tell you enjoy riding.
Nice job Cager.
A great video to watch.
Thanks for posting!
Lovely and honest review! I have tested an mt-09 last week and i get the same feelings and thrill of this triple engine. Hopefully get to test the Tracer when it is available in my country!
Great test-ride CagerOnTwoWheels (as usual). Cagerina can be jealous: you obviously talk about this bike with LOVE AND PASSION!!! 😉
The riding at the end is insane. Absolutely not an example to follow...
Can I just point out everyone that it was another rider with a death wish not Cager but it was also a demo of what the bike can do.
Awesome video cager one of the best, keep them coming!!
Any chance of a Yamaha MT 125cc review??!
Long awaited review. Thanks Cager!
I was just watching chases review of this bike and saw your comment and decided to check if you managed to get your hands on one, wan't disappointed, great reviews man, cheers from a new subscriber from Croatia ;)
Wohoo you made a new video!!! Looking forward to it. Your reviews are awesome ! Greets from germany!
Want to thank you Cager, I just bought a FJ-09 and this video played some part in choosing it.
Awesome video as always, especially because the Tracer is very interesting to me. Even better is the motivational bit at the end.
Nice en happy review! Liked your enthusiasm and the 'bonus' at the end! :)
Thanks Cager,I enjoyed that.What you are so very good at is conveying the emotion,the sheer joy of riding a fun bike.It makes it fun to watch as I get not only some information about the bike but entertainment along with it.I come away with a smile. :-)
How is the wind protection?The weather looked nice so it might be a bit hard to judge but how do you think the protection from those handguards will be in cold and wet conditions?
nice vid. do u can make a comparison in cornering between the z1000sx and the tracer?
love the guy at the end! he and the bike are impressive. And your enthusiasm is infectious.thanks.
great review. Looks like a really fun bike, and some useful stuff about improvements over the first MT-09. Were the improvements obvious straight away?
That last part is nuts though.
Nice video bro also real nice to see what the bike can do at the end.
This motorcycle is so awesome, had a great weekend riding it!
Excellent review
I like your reviews about motocycles a lot. You do a propoer review, and explain everything. Good luck in the future and if you have an ocasion to test a supermoto it will be cool.
So pretty much, I need to move to Portugal. Great video man, that bike is madness. I want one.
When you pinned it in first gear.... Amazing!!!
This is my dream bike
Awesome vid as always, Cager! :P
Excelente video como siempre! gracias! donde es esto cager?? Que parte de Portugal??
Oh my God, my friend, your reviews are the best in the world!!!!!
One of your best videos.
This devil just drives you crazy I guess... good video dude.... love the revving sound! Sweet... 😂
Hey Cager on two wheels
You have done reviews on yamaha mt 125, 07 and 09. Can you do one on mt-03 as well please?
Nice one Cager, great review I really enjoyed it.
Question:
How does it compare with the Ktm 1290 superduke?
CagerOnTwoWheels Great vídeo, and great end! Saludos desde México.
Watched both video reviews, BUT Is it more FUN than the V-Tec sounding of the V4 Honda Crossrunner 800??? Power stats are same on paper.. What about action ????
Considered doing a review on the 700 tracer?
You Crack Me Up!! Best motorcycle reviews to watch. thanks
How your NT felt after that? I want this bike! Not sure why they made the steering bar so wide. It's not a GS.
Cool spirited ride in the end :)
WOW thank you for your review, Just yesterday I went to test ride a bmw f700gs, I rode my old 1981 sportster to the test ride Got on the bmw and went wow this handles great and makes my Harley feel like a 250cc. But when I got out on the highway and went to overtake it was lacking the torque that the Harley has I'm going to go test ride one of these awesome video thanks again!
Nice one Cager. Maybe get Cagerina on the back of one of these fast bikes with a mic one day :)
Any chance of an upcoming Triumph Street Triple review?
We come to this channel for the motorcycles. We come back for the laughter. Thanks.
Can this bike do any off-roading at all you think?
Excellent,thanks for the top review...
Another excellent video review Cager.
As for the final part, there will always be people who like and who does not like!
All agreeing that there are places and places to play, it is still a machine domain demonstration by someone very knowledgeable !!! And after all, who has not abused a bit on the road??!? That "pilot" can be more secure in racing mode than many people out there that lead more slowly in the road.
Keep going!
Hello, friend. Your reviews look in Russia. Thanks for the interesting tests! I want to ask the Council : I Choose a motorbike to drive between cities (so I work). Which model is better for this - Honda CBR600FA or Yamaha MT-09 Traser ?? Why I choose these models? Because there are two of bike for little money, so look at them... have to Go to Russia. Speed on the highway about 140-160-200 km/h..
What would you advise as a practitioner?
Thank you for your advice!
Crazy man! Love you vid!
best preview ! hilarius cast aswell.... keep up the good work
As always great review! Please do ktm 1190 adv, bmw 1200 gs and ducati multistrada
Holy shite. The last 3 minutes of this video are insane.
I feel your joy when you crack that throttle open, Cager. It's fun going along for the ride. I was thinking about getting a V-Strom 650 until the FZ-09 (MT-09) came along with that sweet triple, but I was holding out for an adventure version and, lo and behold, Yamaha heard me. Well, if they made an FJ from the FZ, maybe they can make an FJ-07 that's just as entertaining, but less expensive. I also want to ride the new Kawasaki Versys 650 before I pull the trigger. Ain't progress great!
nice weather, lovely Portugal!
Hey CagerOnTwoWheels
Can you please share your views by test riding the Kawasaki Versys 650? It certainly is not as powerful as the Tracer, however IMO is a great bike with a decent power and handles well. Bit pricey compared to the tracer.
When's the Yamaha V-MAX 1700 test ride coming?
what kind of cam you use for the video?thanks
Lol. Good to know. Look forward to your next review. If you can get your hands on a Honda Valkyrie or the kKTM 1190 Adventure (the one I have) please take it for a ride, would love to see your review/s.
Great! Would love to see a Yamaha MT-125 review too! :)
This is my next bike, I once asked you to make a video on: now that you have driven so many bikes what would buy today...is this the bike?
Hello my friend, what would you say are the pros and cons of the MT-09 VS the Honda NC750X (without the DCT)
CagerOnTwoWheels hahaha thanks. I am not a new rider but I am stuck between these two bikes and not sure what bike to pick. I was 100% for the nc750x....but then I saw this video and I am like hummmmmmmm maybe I should get this one
have been years to have a big smile and laughing while enjoying a test drive review on youtube!!! I LOOOVEEE tha part of the traction control... no no no no noooo no whellies for your HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA soooooo coooollll!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D
Super-hero catch-phrase moment "Alpha Mode ---- Go!" Great vid.
Cager,
How would you compare this FJ-09 to the Kawi Versys 650?
No comparison, Versys is far tamer (also almost half the HP and a few thousand less in price). You're less likely to wrap yourself around a tree with the Versys, though, and the stock seat is miles more comfortable.
That lady driver who tapped her head, as if to say, 'you crazy fool', she was right. That last guy should take that sort of riding to the track, there's no place for that in built up areas. Apart from that, another brilliant, inspiring video.
From all the new bikes on the market today, this one strikes the best balance between everyday practicality, madness and price. If I would be on the market for a new bike, I would definitely get this one. Too bad I find it pointless to waste money on brand new bikes.
Boa noite. Será a minha proxima mota é só uma questao de tempo. 😀 a minha actual mota é uma XT 660R. Gostava de saber se já fizeste test drive e o que achas-te?
se eu pod€ss€ era sem dúvida a minha nova escolha. Cager em que concessionário foste experimentar? cumps
Nice video COTW, I think you should try out a 600cc sports bike next (if you want to start feeling the power :) )
CagerOnTwoWheels Na bmw estao la as S1000RR :D prontinhas para um test-drive
Fun bike, wish i could get one of these... :(. Also you werent kidding when you said crazy rider at the end, sheesh
Is the centre-stand standard?
Can you do a Yamaha WR125X review? (and maybe a MT-125?). Your reviews are really good, you show what it can do and explain a lot of what's on it. I voted on you, every single time with the ktm challenges ;)
how fast is it?
Where are these roads?
A MT-07 Tracer would be almost perfect for me!! Please Yamaha!!! MT07 Tracer!!!
Well what did the second guy think of the bike?
That pilot at the end scared the crap out of me!
Great review, very scary ending.
I'm about to buy my new bike. It will more than likely be the NC750X DCT....however, after watching your review of the MT-09 Tracer, I'm not as sure as I was. Thanks for that!
If you were buying and had to chose between the two bikes (NC750X and MT-09 Tracer), what would you chose. FYI - It will be ridden around roads and climate similar to yours (Andalusia, Spain).
buy the bike you want and don't fear it...sorry but cager is wrong here...learn restraint and don;t hammer the throttle, that way you can learn to explore the limits of the bike over time without the need to keep purchasing new bike
FilthyMcNastyAzz
Great theory but that doesn't translate to reality.
crash86ed does so..see what I did there?.What kind of response do you call that? Have you bought a bigger bike and tried it out?
kloppskalli
Exactly my thoughts on riding. My first bike was a 2010 Ninja 250. I crashed on it 2 weeks after riding (because I was a rookie and took a corner too fast for my abilities at the time). After that I purchased a 2009 ZX-6R and haven't crashed it after 3 years of riding. I go fast on the ZX-6R, but knowing that I crashed on the 250 and needed 5 stitches in my ankle, I know that I can have the same damage happen to me on any bike. It's how you ride, not what you ride.
Greetings from a MT-07 rider from Istanbul :) I remember you are 1,73cm. tall. What is your inseam?? 31?
Ah finally! One question Cager - if you could get a brand new Tracer for free or a Super Tenere for 4.5k Euro, which one would you choose? I was on a motorcycle fairy in Stockholm last weekend, and was a bit surprised by: width of steering on Tracer, and how comfortable Tenere is, and that I'm tall enough to stand on both feet on both bikes (and that I actually enjoy clip-ons). Shouldn't Tracer have an adjustable seat height ?
CagerOnTwoWheels
It kinda looks like I'm going to aim at something Tenere-like bike, because I and my brother are planning a long trip already (Sweden-Finland-Norway).
Any plans for Honda VFR800X (and maybe CBR650F) ?
Cager on Two Wheels - V.P.
Ah - that sucks. Hope that it will be better soon (have some hopes for new Honda >:D)
Cager on Two Wheels - V.P. Dang, can't wait to see a review of the new Honda VFR800X Crossrunner. I am pretty sure that it's gonna be my new bike.
CagerOnTwoWheels
Hey again. Just re-watched the video, and if I'm not mistaken, You didn't mention anything about adjustable seat height, which should be present in stock bike (according to swedish Yamaha site). Wonder if it were the highest position, or the lowest. If it were not the lowest position, then I think it would be possible for You to stand on both feet, not just on toes. But seat wouldn't be more comfortable :
MT-09 Tracer is not an adventure bike, It is a sport touring bike. You can probably take off road a little (like pretty much any bike), but it is definitely not made for it. Underbelly exhaust pipes, and 17" tires really limit how much dirt you want to ride.
Will blog it next year
very very good and entertaining video. Your mate at the end let the tracer fly.
Fiz ontem o test drive a esta mota. Simplesmente espetacular. Estava com receio de a conduzir, tenho uma DT 125 X e ando ha procura de uma com mais CC, e a mota é mesmo fácil de se guiar... Possivelmente ainda este mesmo mês vá buscar uma heheh. É impossível não se gostar dela
Ricardo Nunes Bem, na próxima semana já cá esta :D
Nice bike and a great review
The ladies in the car, what are they saying?
Olá amigo.
Thank you for the upload.
I would really love to watch you ride and opinionate a new Triumph Street Triple R. Similar engine to this but on a much lighter and more capable bike. Garaunteed to put a smile on your face.
Até logo :)
New Intro!! Sweet..
That is a great bike and just the right size as you can drive around town in traffic, cut through curves and go on a trip with.
This bike is fun fun fun and I got the red one and u can do all and more on this bike but no offroading at all Abs and Traction control are standard A mode u can wheeliie in the first 4 gears but I dont Always starts on std then u go thru B then A and the insanity starts but DONT TURN THE TRACTION OFF EVER OK
Wahaha haha! Sounds like you had a great time! Looking at this bike for my next one!
What if a young child would happen to run across the street. You would go from hero to Zero . Smart' n up man.
You are right but it could happen even if you are not speeding aswell. And you would probably still blame yourself if it did happen.
Odds are key...
My God! The last part of the video was scary as hell, especially when he passed the little SMART, it Was a stupid overtake! If that young lady just veered just a bit to her left in that instant he would be like strawberry jam spread all over the place.
Just last autumn, there was a guy doing wheelies in middle of traffic just the village next to us. He slammed into the crash barrier. Then got ran over by truck (after all, it was intercity motorway). Died. Hopefully after snowy winter, the blood spot will vanish. Please Cager, don't show things like this anymore. It makes me want to stop riding. Thank you.
Would love to see a Z800 review! :)
WANT. Perfect replacement for my FZ6.
With your own money would you buy the Z1000SX or this. (Yamaha tracer)
Love your vids.
That's a surprise, you seemed to enjoy your time on the tracer so much more. Thanks. My mate is deciding which to buy. CagerOnTwoWheels
That guy at the end clearly has a death wish. Great to see what the bike is capable of though. Awesome video as always Cager, absolutely brilliant
***** Yup, we got a potential murderer on our hands. We better lock this guy up for potentially murdering lots of people.
johnj189 I have a better solution. Take their licence for at least... lets say for the next 20 years -untill they grew up for responsible riding. It could be also for insane car drivers.
I guess you are one of the insane riders but it could save your life to. Im sorry for that but streets would be much-much safer without such irresponsible people.
bandinator Taking their license for 20 years for speeding, weaving in and out of traffic, and riding on one wheel? You might be one of the most illogical, unreasonable people online and that's saying a lot.
And I am not an insane rider. I don't support reckless riding at all. What bothers me is the keyboard warriors like Lombardi who judge others like they are God. He has no right. He only has a right to live life how he feels, not dictate how others should live.
oh yes, I'm surely very illogical, LOL :D... hey, mate, who is judging others?? :D
When somebody is speeding, I mean literalry going really fast.. is a huge danger factor on the roads. If you think that it isn't true, you are wrong.
I am a paramedic, and if somebody, paramedics know how does things look like after crash, and what is it like to tell to somebody that his/her spouse/child is dead, or suffered enduring injuries and will never be able to stand up/talk/pee or poo independently, because of an irresponsible rider/drived. Than is too late to tell "I am sooo sorry, I didn't want to". I have seen it few times, and I dont wish it to anyone. If the rider dies, its his/her problem, and peoples he/she left behind.
So Lombadri has right in this case -if you like it or not-, because nobody has right to put others into deadly danger.
That's it.
bandinator If part of your job is delivering bad news and you can't stand doing it, you should look for a different job. And also, since you are a paramedic, how many times have you seen a motorcycle rider kill another person due to their riding? I am curious.
That aside, I don't disagree about the tragedy of MVAs. And if you wanted to go into a school of kids about to become old enough to drive and teach them about safe driving and riding I am all for it. And if you want to go to a motorcycle safety course and discuss safe riding and tell them how dangerous it can be and how people lose lives I am all for it. But you don't have any right to pull the "holier than thou" crap on an adult rider who never signed up for a lecture. Just like Lombardi is doing to the rider at the end of this video.
Yamaha should hire you. You just sold me on the ALPHA MODE AAAHHHH!!!
Haaaiiiii, I am a viewer, and today is the day for me to enjoy your new video.
Now that XSR900 is out in the stores you should test that, it's basically the MT09 with a retro kit installed (that makes it neo-retro and can dodge bullets or something).
edit: I see now that you did the XSR700 so the 900 might be a redundant review.
fuck me that last guy be craycray ;)
Very nice place, where is it?
It's Cascais area, about 40 km from Lisbon.
Great beaches.
Search on the web the following: Carcavelos, Oeiras, Cascais and Sintra
Thanks!
I guess MJ Paiva will finally make a direct profit out of you in a few months! The bike looks fantastic in person. Yamaha is conquering honda fans and possibly getting some from triumph. I was considering a tyger or a triple R for 2016 and then yamaha brought the mt-09 series. They don't have parts as good as triumphs but they are cheaper to own and for the average Joe like me it should be enough to convince me. Btw I was feeling the need to brake when you tried the A mode.
Your a Crazy Funny Madman on this FJ09.I want to buy one and put the traction control on one and give it max throttle and pass cars and have fun like your doing.LOL..It's okay Cager you weren't dragging knees or going 250KPH like on a racetrack.It was all cool and fun my friend!!!! You made me laugh and your right riding a motorcycle is supposed to be fun!!!!
Cager can you pls review the Husqvarna Nuda
I loved your video and your exuberant persontlity.
Em bom português, eu já a testei, precisamente esta mota da MJPaiva. E esta mota pede sempre por mais, é uma maquina bem fixe.Na A5 onde tinha espaço, pois eu não tenho um kit de unhas como o de o piloto tanto criticado aqui, consegui chegar aos 220Km/h (137Nm/h ai para os bifes).
