      Never owned a KTM, and never will, but when my brother told me he wanted a superduke R I said get an MT10 or something. He didn't listen and bought a 2022. He's had it 3 months and he's had it to the dealership twice for electrics issues and one of those times he was 200 quid for a sensor and diagnostics. A few days ago it completely fking died on him on the way to work in the rain. Had to get it recovered to his house and has to get a man with a van to take it to the dealership next week. He was already second guessing his choice because of the full system exhaust - it is wildly, obnoxiously loud on start up. Poor cnt.

    The 2024 MT-09 (SP or not) makes every other bike below $15.000 feel like a heap of hot shit in comparison. If you got the this MT-09 there is nothing else in the world that you would want to upgrade to in a long time.

    @ianmason3040 25 дней назад +12

    I'll have to wait till next time for the verdict. It's hard to get my head around the price of the 990, I paid £7.5k for my (2021) 790 Duke (tech pack included), and with the 990 being almost twice the price, is it really twice the bike - I don't think so. I think I'd opt for the MT-09 SP 👍

    @soulrebelno1 25 дней назад +3

    I've been looking for a new bike, and nothing has really interested me for one reason or another. Then, the new MT-09 SP comes along and it's really caught my eye. The overall package is fantastic, and it looks very hard to beat when you compare it to other bikes in the same category. Yamaha has also addressed the front-end handling problems that plagued the earlier models. I'll probably wait until early next year, and see what deals are available, unless something comes along at the end of the season. Hopefully, we'll get lucky in the UK and see some sun next year, because this year the weather has been 🤬 dreadful, it's like a scene out of Blade Runner!

  • @ragerider6283

    I'm surprised you're both happy with the seat comfort on the MT09,my one criticism of my gen 4 is I find it uncomfortable after an hour or so,the factory comfort seat is an improvement but not a game changer.
    All round a great bike though I get home from riding it thinking I'm blessed to have that cp3 engine in it🤩

      I had a KTM 1290 SAS before, with the Powerpart heated seat. I currently ride a standard MT09. I cannot say that the seat is better, but the overall comfort (buttwise) definitely is, because of the global sitting position. The MT-09 definitely isn't *super* comfy, but it is absolutely ok. If you are that sensitive, you should look at the BMW R series.

    The 990 duke here in Canada costs $15,700 + $1200 tech pack + tax. The MT09-SP is $17,300+tax. So its almost identical in price here. If the MT09SP was cheaper here I would have definitely purchased it over the 990.

    Will the KTM is fantastic but the suspension just does not have the level auf an Öhlins/KYB (or Showa) setup.
    And the Yamaha is just the better package with even more functions.
    But (!) the SP is quite different from the standard MT.
    It is even better.
    I am just in love.

    The KTM looks better, but the yammie will start rain hail or shine...plus better brakes and Japanese build quality....great to see Yamaha finally woke up, admitted defeat and stuck Stylemas on it.

    After riding both I like them pretty much the same! MT is probably more reliable. And the KTM is slightly more money. But I prefered the KTMs engine characteristics. Plus... Everyone and their mother has an MT07/09. I had two. So. Figured Id pick up the 990 and so far? I think I made the right choice! Only time will tell if the reliability is up to par. Im not going in with any preconcieved notions though. Everyone says KTMs arent reliable but Ive had nothing but great reliability! My Suzuki broke before my old KTM.

      Gotta agree.
      Only thing keeping me from seriously considering a yamaha MT is the yob factor. Only idiots seem to ride them where i live. Wheelie happy adolescents with chopped off end cans.
      Will probably opt for the ST765rs, same triple engine, better handling, chassis, suspension and more power

    @monkmoto1887 24 дня назад

    Great job boys. Anyone who knows me knows I think the mt09 is twice the value of the 990. The mt09 is a vehicle you can rely on and ride daily. The 990 is a toy and while I haven’t had hands on one I’ve got a buddy with a 790 and one with an 890. Also have 2 dudes in our group that ride gen 3(?) superdukes. If we line them up (at the track of course 😊) they come around my z1000 over 130-140 mph but they’ve never been able to get away in the twisties and my 150lb body weight and 7 years on the same bike get me off the line faster

    Looking forward to see which bike you would recommend. Had the 1st gen FZ until I had enough and sold it. The handling was so bad but the engine was great. Thinking of picking up KTM next time. I prefer handling prowess over engine as I'm doubtful with this new MT. Still short wheelbase and short shock travel = unsteady rear under heavy load for me

    Great review boys! I live in the area of the test, great roads hey? I’m so lucky, but the weather comes with my territory . Welsh bikers ride in all weathers as they have to, otherwise the bike stays in the garage. 😂😂 Harley riders still ignore us though, they are too busy trying to get round corners and plough the fields.
