Yamaha MT-09 2016

A Yamaha MT-09 não precisava de ser reinventada para a próxima época - já estava extremamente bem feita há quase quatro anos. Em vez disso, os japoneses concentram-se na afinação e na adição de truques práticos e contemporâneos, como o controlo de tração e as mudanças automáticas. No entanto, devido à norma Euro4, a gestão do motor foi alterada mais uma vez e oferece uma potência enfaticamente potente, mas bem controlada no modo standard; a explosão de potência da primeira geração já não é oferecida nem mesmo pelo modo A mais nítido. A maior mudança, reconhecível à primeira vista, é o design, na minha opinião, extremamente bem-sucedido, com a frente mais agressiva e a traseira com novo design. Em suma, uma moto naked ainda mais elegante que foi claramente construída para a diversão do motociclismo.
