Yamaha MT-09 SP 2019

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2019

The Yamaha MT-09 is the refinement of an already very good mid-range naked bike. With better suspension components from Öhlins and Kayaba, a nicer paint job and a justifiably higher price, the SP version is clearly the sportiest choice within the Yamaha MT-09 range. The brute power of the engine does not allow the MT-09 SP to be ridden comfortably, but that is not necessary on the "Special" - the fun is clearly in the foreground!

incredibly powerful three-cylinder engine

good brakes

sporty and comfortable seating position

ABS

traction control

shift assistant

high saddle

shift assistant only for upshifting

instruments do not stand out strongly from the basic version

Suzuki GSX-R 750 2006

Suzuki GSX-R 750 2006

All those riders who don't care about class constraints on the race track and don't have enough fun on the road with a 600 will find a good compromise with the 750. Satisfied 1000cc riders, however, will stay with the 1000cc. 1000cc performance with 600cc handling is not (yet) available. But almost!

The golden mean in every respect

rev-happy engine

sufficient power for the road

fast enough on the racetrack

Chassis components not of high enough quality for serious racetrack use
