Technical Specifications Yamaha MT-09 2016 compared to Triumph Street Triple 765 R 2023
Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-09 2016
The Yamaha MT-09 did not need to be reinvented for the coming season - it already was extremely well done almost four years ago. Instead, the Japanese focus on fine-tuning and adding practical, contemporary gimmicks such as traction control and automatic shifting. Due to the Euro4 standard, however, the engine management has been changed once again and offers an emphatically powerful but well controllable power delivery in standard mode; the power explosion of the first generation is now no longer offered even by the sharper A mode. The biggest change, recognisable at first glance, is the, in my opinion, extremely successful design with the more aggressive front and the newly designed rear. All in all, an even snazzier naked bike that was clearly built for the fun of motorcycling.
Triumph Street Triple 765 R 2023
The overhaul of the Street Triple family for 2023 has been more than successful. The R we tested is the entry-level model - but there is little sign of this, because thanks to the extensive standard equipment, the cleanly working chassis and the high-quality workmanship, hardly any wishes remain unfulfilled even here. The 765 cubic capacity three-cylinder is a doozy anyway and not only impresses with its running culture and revving pleasure, but also its responsiveness and dosing is first-class. The new Street Triple 765 R is a really fair offer.
