Yamaha MT-07 2017

Mesmo após três anos, a Yamaha MT-07 continua a ser uma das favoritas do público. Mais ninguém bate esta relação preço/desempenho. O motor de dois cilindros é potente, mas pode ser doseado muito suavemente a baixas rotações. O ecrã é também um dos melhores desta classe, com boa legibilidade. Apenas o chassis é dececionante. Num estilo de condução desportivo, é simplesmente demasiado macio, o que pode fazer com que a MT-07 balance.

Para pura diversão, a 690 Duke sem o R já é suficiente. O potente motor monocilíndrico é quase idêntico, tal como o peso e o manuseamento, e o aspeto é demasiado semelhante para ser um verdadeiro ponto de venda para a 690 Duke R.
