POLL: Thumbs up for MT-09
Sorry just bought a Z900
You pushed the bike,you tested out acceleration and quickshifting,you did city and rural driving, and yet you averaged 6.0 litres/100 kms on fuel consumption ? Amazing figure for a bike with this kind of power and lunacy.
Amazing review once again Cager. The most trustworthy youtuber as it comes in motorcycle reviews.
Collecting mine in same colour this coming Saturday. Just hoping for some dry weather here now 🖒
My next bike, upgrading from MT-03... You, my friend, are starting to cost me serious money... :D
Petr Dvořák Thats what i was thinking...XD
Test ride it before you buy it.
Petr Dvořák I'm doing the exact same thing! You got the 321cc mt03 version as well?
Petr Dvořák got 2016 MT 03 AS WELL, but most likely I am getting BMW F800GT or Harley Davidson SPORTSTER or even MT 700 TRACER. but naked just got so much wind blast in high speed
Yes! :) And I still like it - for a small displacement engine, it's ton of fun...
Damn cager. Been watching you for over a year and i love you content. But you seem to ride very unsafe in this video, please ride safe.
30:10 You rode into the red light! :O
Cager, com todo o respeito, segui todos os teus vídeos e irei continuar a seguir da mesma forma, mas isso não é civismo nem segurança. A definição de sinal luminoso é esse mesmo, e este semáforo atenção que não foge à regra porque ele foi feito e apresenta as 3 cores, se não exibe a cor verde não faz dele um "inútil", apenas, e como forma de segurança, não emite a luz verde mas sim a amarela para os condutores prosseguirem com cautela por os restantes não respeitarem o sinal Stop ali existente. Houve ali muito acidente na altura, e reduziu drasticamente por ali estar apenas a cor amarela, sim, a cor amarela causa impacto e aumenta o cuidado dos condutores. E quando te vejo passar assim no sinal vermelho, ignorando todo esse trabalho feito, e com sucesso, para reduzir a sinistralidade, alegando que aquilo não é um sinal porque não emite luz verde, dá-me uma certa tristeza.
Vá Cager, ansioso por te voltar a ver experimentar aí umas máquinas, bons modelos 2018 a sair quentinhos.
Grande abraço
You remind me of my teenage son who contrives the most clever excuses. Also, although you are free to take risks that affect only you, you could have easily killed someone else speeding through a residential street near the end of this vid. Good review otherwise, thanks.
A great street bike for hooligan work. Loads of power and fun on tap at all times. I'd you're not smiling whilst riding this bike you're an alien.
Thanks Cager
Thanks for the review. Looks like a really fun bike. I'm pleased for Yamaha bringing out the MT range which has revived them. They weren't in a good place before the '09
To me this is a nice bike.
I ride MT25, a smaller version, yet to me, its good enough for now.
My future upgrade would be this bike
lmao
Thanks for the vid and compare of the z900. For the 2014-16 MT-09 I got Leon Group's (made in Thailand) mudguard with license plate, works great.
My first time watching your Vid, great review on the FZ-09, thank you. Cheers from California.
i have a 2017 MT-09. and this guy makes me want another one.
Boas, Como comparas esta MT-09 com a MT-10? A mota é para usar na Madeira! Ou seja, 90% do tempo abaixo dos 150 km/h. Estou na duvida entre a 09SP e a 10. Estava decidido pela 10 mas tenho receio que sinta falta do baixo peso e da flexibilidade da 09SP..uma vez que aqui é praticamente só estrada curtinhas, muita cidade e muitas estradas de montanha.
Great review! I am loving these new naked bikes that are on the market now, could you please do a review on the suzuki gsx-s750, all reviews I have seen are very positive but I would appreciate hearing your opinion on the suzuki. Cheers from New Zealand!
fz 09 is one of the bikes I want, but the z900 is 1200 cheaper, so makes it tougher choice, got a while to figure it out tho
It *sounded* like you had more fun on the z900, but if you say you liked the mt09 better than it must be a really fun bike!
Haha dude you're hilarious. Thanks for the video! Can't wait to get my FZ-09 over here in the US.
Just ordered my 2017 in Canada. Can't wait!
Nice! I wish the colors schemes over here in North America were better. The red and white look good, but that gray makes it look like a grandpa's bike. I want the purple/blue scheme back!
10:45 randomly firing through a city street at 170km/h. Dayyyuumm not good!
Mais uma excelente review! E que versatilidade linguistica meu caro! You just got me a step closer to buying this beast! abraço
MT Zero 9. I love it. That's grammatically correct.
Thank you for the review and great content... Keep it up.
Those roads are cool. Where are you located? Greetings from NY!
Good review. I wish my 2015 was like this.
Thankyou Cager for the great review of the 2017 Yamaha FZ09.I like this motorcycle a lot.What is better?The 2017 Yamaha FZ10 or the 2017 Yamaha FZ09? I trust your expert opinion.I hope to go to Portugal and get a Hotel and rent a motorcycle.And meet you Cager.SoYou can show me how to get the right Equipment to become a good Motovlogger.
i will buy yamaha mt09 because of this video
Did you ? I'm looking at a 2016 got pre approved for a loan .
B mode is the beast mode now Cager.
Dulf Nordensvärd on the MT09, B mode is still slow mode and A mode is full power.
It's the MT10 where B mode is beast mode. The two bikes are different.
Awesome review, just what i was looking for.
Now compare the 2017 fz 09 with the Street triple ;)
Thanks m8 for the review. I would personally get this for the streets and highway IMO. Especially in ekking jams. Was looking at Z900 as well but I think it's more brutal than mt 09. Your take on this?
CAGERRRR!! Can you please do a comparison with the Gsxs 750 and the others(fz 09 and z900?)
Gosto dos teus vídeos e o teu ingles é muito bom (muitas expressoes do UK), mas por favor pensa "Safety First", nao só a tua mas as dos outros principalmente, porque estes nao tem culpa. Sendo este video de 2017 penso que entretanto isso tenha melhorado :) Abraco e continuacao de excelentes reviews! Ride safe!
169kph in town?! Bit naughty that, Cager.
I have just got one there is only one thing that bugs me about this bike short tank range you need to be looking for a petrol station after only 120 miles and that goes by so quickly when you are having fun. great fun bike all you want to have a fun day out love it
now youve tested 2 similar bikes: the z900 and the mt09. which one is your favorite and which would you buy if you can only afford one? greetings
Would you buy it? Thinking about getting it or 700? Can’t get test rides on Japanese motorcycles where I live. I love auto blippers that allow you to down shift also. A mode is the most aggressive correct?
Cool video! How do you record your voice + ambient sounds for your vids?
Hey Cager! Could you please make a review of the Kawasaki Ninja 300?
U sir have just help me decide my next bike. Well done sir. Tuduloo
"I'm not sure how fast that was, but it was VERY fast". Hahaha lol, you are funny dude ;)
Great clip, subbed and liked. Performance per dollar on the FZ-09 / MT-09 are hard to beat. Not a fan of the colours.
The headlights look like the designer read the comic Nemesis the Warlock. Also, but damn that instrument cluster is tiny. That would almost be a deal breaker for me.
What are you comparing it to when you say "it's so much better now"?
Great review! Now i want one...
Front is pretty awesome compared to the old one
my plan is to get the xj6 than after a year or two , get this one
Another great review old son!
Thanks for the review Cager. I love this bike and will be purchasing one soon.
How do you feel owning a tracer 09 to overcome the traffics and enjoying twisties over this mt 09?
Love it! Love it! Love it!
So badly want one!
Gotta love having "Apocalyptic Sound" on a bike. ◉_◉
Cager u love all the bikes man :))) (great videos:)
Ive sold my Z900 and will get this. MT09 is not as Sharp in the turns or as stable in high speed as the Kawasaki Z900 but its way more fun bike to ride. The motor is like night and day and produce loads off torque early and it actually fells like it has 15HP over the Z even if the figures says otherwise.
how has it been on the FZ?
I love it. So fun compared to the Z900. I got a full exhaustsystem on it also wich makes it even better. Ive tuned the suspension (preload) and 5 kilos Went off when I got the new exhaust wich also felt suprisingly much. So its ok now even for me who are around 98kg with gear. I can highly recomend this bike.
is it the 2017 or earlier version? I'm really considering one of these too, they seem very exciting and super great bang for the buck.
Its a 2018. If you are gona have more fun you have to get a MT10 or a Aprilia Tuono. A full system on full gas blipping upp the gears with the quickshifter is fucking awsome. Get 17 or newer becouse the uppgraded suspension on the 17 and the quickshifter.
Cager, you have the Star Trek door bell sound for your ringtone? I have the same one and couldn't figure out why the screen didn't show the caller.
A sério que em 2017 não sabes o que é um QS? a sério que estás a perguntar se se pode por um quickshifter em qualquer mota? mas tiraste a carta quando? ontem por correspondência? e vais logo testar uma MT-09... corajoso...
LOL
Hi, enjoy your Videos very much!
Are you sure there is a quickshifter on the 09? Not so in Germany ... 😳
Yes there is in the UK...I sat on one in the dealers last week...they had two in and they both had QS as standard....But if you watch Chaseontwowheels video, the one he's riding doesn't have one and thats in the USA..???????
Which engine do you like better? The 948 on the Z, or the 847 on the MT?
From my research, the Z900 has a slightly higher power-to-weight ratio from about 6,000 rpm to redline. I do like the 4.5 gallon tank on the Z.
Butt-dynos can be different for different people. I've run the math at all RPM ranges between the two, and the FZ/MT carries a very slight power-to-weight advantage below 6,000 rpm. But it's slight, nothing
drastic at all. I even compared both of them in a "modified" condition with full exhaust systems installed. Actually the Z900 wasn't tuned at all, but did have full exhaust (Akrapovic website dyno chart) whereas the numbers for the Yamaha I used were fully uncorked and flashed and dyno tuned.
You got that last bit right Cager. I do that every day after I get back home from work with my MT09 (2014). I once rode it in snow/blizzard... it was awesome scary. I was working the throttle like a brain surgeon all the way :)
Be careful of the timing of your downshifts mate. If it doesn't have a slipper clutch you could have been standing the bike up going into the corner or locking the back wheel slightly. I have been subbed for a while and this is the only video of yours where you made me concerned for your safety. A piece of tape over the QS light or a coloured marker pen would solve the problem. Nice review as always. Keep the vids coming but keep safe please.
The '17 MT09 has a slipper clutch stock
I have never ridden a bike that has a slipper clutch. It is a great piece of safety kit and didn't mean any hate towards our friend CO2W. Makes the '17 MT09 an even better purchase. Thankyou for the info.
All good. I agree with the point you made though.
(Thumbs up first comment, to MATCH THE Comment COUNT)
Again? i thought you did a test drive before at some point?
and FIRST!
Looks so Futuristic bike man!
all cornery and angles...my bike is Rounded honda...
Thank you for the video, Thumbs up.
You deserve more subscribers.
For license plate not much of yamaha "idea". Just go back to Ducati Monster 1200 and MV Agusta Brutale and you will find the idea. :)
Cyber Gasty think the license plate holder would rub on a 190/55 tire?
Don't know about that. I do not have nor plan to buy MT/FZ-09. I assume someone who already bought it can answer your question, or try at some MT/FZ-09 forums.
How do I insert the charging cable into my go pro camera?
Great review as usual!
Cager, you can use quick shifting on your bike without quick shifter easily, just google how to do that without damaging your gearbox.
CagerOnTwoWheels : is that a sort of paddle for motorcycle?
Pretty much.
would you recommend this for a newbie rider ?
Which bike do you prefer..mt09 or z900?
My first mod was to replace that nasty license plate contraption..
Great review. Ride safe
can you test ride the new street triple 765?
Hi everybody can you please give me some suggestions on how to verify with videotape and a go pro hero 4 silver my 1299S when it intermittently and randomly and unexpectedly stalls out? Every time i take it to the dealer they said they can't duplicate the problem and Ducati of North America video taped my bike with no problems. But my 1299s still stalls out on me in congested stop in go traffic all the time and when I feather the clutch and drive between 0 to 15 mph on the street or freeway or on the street.However I'm an amateur and I just purchased a hero 4 go pro silver camera do you have suggestions on how to mount it to the 1299S gas tank ? I'm concerned with losing the camera what type a suction mount the go pro hero 4 camera? What I should use and what can I use in case the suction loses its grip to keep the camera from damaging the motorcycle and the camera in case it falls thanks advance for everything. The dealer said prove the 1299s is stalling out with video verification because they claim everything is checking out A ok on the computer test sheet with Ducati engineers and Ducati video tape that they won't show me What would you do? Thanks in advance for everything.
The power map is the B isnt it? know im confused
Please review the KTM 790 duke
Fuck yeah I was waiting for this vid!
Daedalus1632 Cool right!
says a dude hiw races a 250...
anyway, one day ill move onto 500cc lol
wtf
this or z900 in ur opinion?
CagerOnTwoWheels thanks. I'm skilled, at the moment i own an r1 and a ninja 636. I tried the z900 and i liked it. now i will try the mt09 but the esthetic and sound are big pros in favour of the kawi. Cars are something i choose with the brain, motorcycles gotta be choose with the heart :) thanks man
As far as i know, pretty much every modern-ish bike can be fitted with an aftermarket quickshifter.
I love you Cager,and I'm not gay I'm straight.You tested the motorcycle I want to buy in red or white.I was looking at the Kawasaki Z900 ABS at $8399 without ABS or $8799 with ABS.Or the 2017 Yamaha FZ09 at $8999.Or the 2017 Yamaha FZ10 at $10999 which is normally priced at $12999.Though there is this dealer selling the FZ10 for $10999 with free tires for life.I want the FZ09 but the FZ10 might be the better deal with $2000 off plus the lifetime tires.Thankyou Cager for a great review.
For that price I'll definitely go with FZ10, much better and much more of a bike.
Consider the bonkers GSX-S1000 ABS in this price range too.
Ugly and boring. That doesn't sound like a personal experience of test drive.
I've got a new MT-09 myself and as great as it is, the GSX-S1000 does offer a unique experience. It's way more powerful. Also makes equivalent power to the MT-10 but goes 10 miles further each gallon used.
I like the bike as a whole but the instrument binnacle to one side looks stupid.
Gordon Bain true that but why
I have no idea why they would do that.
If they shared the MT-07 instrument panel with the MT-09, and gave the MT-09 a 17 liter tank? Just about perfect.
Subjective. I love the asymmetrical design.
Yes, that's why I phrased my comment as I did.
Why would the Z900 be better over a long distance? Isn't torque useful when touring?
Sounds like it's more tame and smooth. I test drove the Z900 but not the Fz-09 and the Z900 left me in awe from how "refined" it was. It really is smooth and still has great mid and top end power. Low revs were not disappointing either. Really wish I could test drive the Yamaha but nobody is doing it around me.
More cyliders => smoother. Also from my experience riding the bike for a year now, the MT09 is a bit vibey cruising in sixth around 70mph though I think it's the problem with this whole fueling "black spot" in rev range to pass emission test (4-5k rpm). It smooths out around 85-90mph and at 100mph it's like gliding on a fluffy cloud, but that's not legal now is it...
More cylinders = increased blandness. I respect my B-King but find it fairly characterless My MT-01 and Buell Ulysses have character in abundance and aren't vibey at speed. You just know the engine's there which is what I like. I would like an MT-09.
How do I insert my memory card into go pro camera
How do I work my go pro camera?
Nice I want. What country?
Portugal
You did 168kph on a street with driveways and a zebra crossing. Not really a good example.
10:50 btw, it was actually 158kph.
ewooll nope, didn't see anything
yes, i recognized that too. and i'm thinking: meh, bad.
At 10:50 Cager crosses a pedestrian crossing doing 145kph and at 10:55 he crosses another doing 121kph. His top speed on that stretch of road is 158kph. It's not the place to be doing those speeds. I imagine the speed limit is around the 50kph mark.
ok... you are in control... but dont complain when smth. happens...
So this or the z900?
Not sure but seems you missed red light 30:16
Que lógica do caralho...
Ha, love your videos. Glad you get to ride very angry bikes! Be safe tho
Thanks for nice review Cager but slow down please mate.
Soooooo have you heard of ChaseOnTwoWheels? :P
Cager on Two Wheels - V.P. .... Because you sir, are a gentleman.
I think he liked this one :)
"But I'm not quite as straight as I used to be."
Have you got something to tell us Mr. Cager?
So in most European videos I see it’s no problem to weave through cars at stop light up to first on line. Is that legal? U.S. it is not.
yes, lane splitting is legal in europe.
nate pate It’s legal in California.
nice vid. but... your driving style inside of the town... nono. not good. doing over 100 kph into town is very bad.
Sensitive arse lol 😂 gonna get me a test ride 👍
MT09 acceleration: Oh, Oh nice!. MT10 Acceleration: Holy Shit!!.
I own both, love them but they are very different rides.
That license plate is coming off on the first wheelie.
If you hit ht on the road you'd be coming off too....
170 in the city
It is still jerky compared to the z900, as you can see, there are moments when cager gets caught off guard, in A mode.
10:38 what happened?
I will buy this Bike from my local Yamaha Dealer about July first 2017 for a radical summer my friend Cager from beautiful Portugal.I think I will get it in white as not to cause too much attention for Cops or thieves.I will add a screen for highway travel.I might get the 2017 XSR900 in titanium blue as it looks really good.Also I prefer the handlebar on the XSR but we shall see.
mt 07 2017 please
👍👍👍😊
I didn't like the rider's position, the seat...it is too upright for me. I didn't like the style. But the engine is great!
