Yamaha MT-07 2021

Simply casual motorcycling! The MT-07 conveys carefree joie de vivre and you love to waggle the lively machine through the bends. The engine is still a guarantee for riding fun. It's amazing how much fire blazes in this little part. Unfortunately, the chassis is still not really good. Together with the missing quickshifter, it is reminiscent of the Yamaha's mild price tag.

With 52 cubic metres more displacement, the new Z500 does not appear to be a ground-breaking development compared to its predecessor, the Z400, but the increase in torque actually makes for a much more confident and mature appearance. The handling remains extremely playful thanks to the low weight and narrower tyres, while the ergonomics are what you would expect from an easy-going A2 naked bike. The suspension surprises with a really successful compromise between sport and comfort for all weight classes. The unagitated brakes, the smooth clutch and the easy manoeuvring make it clear that the new Z500 is aimed at all newcomers. However, the better and more modern equipped Z500 SE does not cost much more than the standard Z500.
