Yamaha MT-09 SP 2022

The fun bike MT-09 is at its best in the SP version! The extremely fun, lively three-cylinder engine feels like more than just 119 hp thanks to the abundance of torque. Add to that terrific, bike-like handling and phenomenal, finely controllable brakes. The upright, rear-facing riding position doesn't take away as much front-wheel feel in the MT-09 SP, as the high-quality chassis gives clean feedback from the road and rides every radius with stability. Unfortunately, as is typical for Yamaha, the clarity of the TFT display and the operating concept of the lush electronics leave a lot to be desired. The seat and pillion comfort could also be better. Otherwise, however, the MT-09 SP is the (almost) perfect bike for massive riding fun.

Lively, high-torque engine

Extremely agile handling

Top brakes

High-quality chassis

Pure driving pleasure!

Poorly legible TFT display

rather hard seat

control of electronics could be more intuitive
