Yamaha MT-09: fast and light
If you are looking for the best 2022 Yamaha motorcycle, the Yamaha MT-09 is perfect for you as it is fast and light. Check it out below!
In 2021, the Yamaha overhauled the MT-09 with a bigger engine, new frame, styling and electronics.
The bike didn't need these upgrades, but there's no denying that it got a lot better.
You can even consider the Yamaha to be the best sports bike from the Japanese brand.
In this way, the engine, with 117hp available, works in perfect harmony with the chassis, even if the chassis could handle more power.
As it is, this is a great bike to take on a long ride over winding country roads.
At the same time it is a bike for the city.
Plus, it's a well-equipped bike and has an electronics package usually reserved for much more expensive bikes.
Like tilt-sensitive traction control, ABS, wheelie and slide control, plus a two-way quick shifter.
Still on the mechanical part of this bike, Yamaha put ABS technology directly from the 2020 YZF-R1 superbike.
Tilt-sensitive ABS works in perfect harmony with the hardware.
As well, you should never feel anything but confident, regardless of road conditions or tire temperature.
The TFT dash could be more attractive, but you'll be too busy watching the road ahead to let that bother you too much.
In typical Japanese fashion, it's a little plasticky, especially compared to the likes of the Triumph Street Triple.
However, it is cheaper than the Triumph and the KTM 890 Duke R that it goes toe-to-toe with.
But, it's still one of the funniest Japanese bikes with a lot of personality.
Thus, launched this year, the Yamaha MT-09 is costing around 60 thousand reais.
