Yamaha MT-09 2024

Yamaha MT-09 2024

Yes, Yamaha has produced a really leiwandes bike. All the criticisms of its predecessor have been successfully revised without neutering the wild and playful nature of the MT-09. The fourth generation is more mature, more precise and more polished, rides more neutrally and is more stable without losing its light-footedness. A marvellous bike that currently offers an almost unbeatable price-performance ratio thanks to many detail improvements and has now even become really pretty. The Yamaha dealers won't be able to save themselves from orders after test rides. Let's hope that availability is guaranteed, because the new MT-09 is the definition of the word "direct hit"!

The bottom line is that even after the successful model update, the XL750 is a Transalp as a Transalp should be, which has always been regarded as a smooth-running, comfortable all-rounder. The combination of proven technology, improved comfort features and modern Advanced Rider Assistance Systems makes the bike an attractive companion for adventure-seekers and everyday riders alike. Whether for the daily commute through the urban jungle to work, on a brisk after-work ride or on a long journey, which can of course also take you on unpaved roads.
