yeah the MT-07R is just to compromised. like it has the aggressive riding position that reminds you of sport bikes but has non of the actual power and just falls flat on it's face. there is a reason F1 cars are all HP no torque. hp is just how fast you can do something while torque is how hard you can go. better to not sacrifice comfort for something that don't meat up to the standards of how a sport bike should be riden. better to get the comfortable mt-07 and just enjoy yourself.

@jerodwolford2743 Ай бұрын

As much as I really enjoyed the r7s aggressiveness, I think I'd faster get an mt07 as well. Simply for the daily factor. The mt07 is more of a playful bike and I'm getting the impression that the r7 is more serious, which is fine because I like the twisties, but I can only afford one newer bike right now. Ideally I'd like to have an mt07 and a zx636

It’s a really serious issue and causes a lot of debate, in my country R7 are only 30$ cheaper than 650R, lots of people choose Honda simply for 4 cylinders, HSTC(my country rains often which makes it important) but Yamaha actually refused to get any more orders for R7 since yesterday, because they sold “too good” as they can’t consume the current orders in a short time.

Dave Moss has a video tutorial on mostly fixing the suspension issues with the FZ/MT-07. Stiffer springs, thicker fork fluid and lowering forks a few mm really make the bike handle better. It really helps and it's only a couple hundred dollars.

yeah the suspension is a bit soft. i know on my fz6n the front needs a bit of stiffening and the rear a bit to. it transfers the weight during braking to much to the front wheel. ok for every day riding but if i need to brake a bit more aggressive then it can lighten the rear a bit to much.

@groundsurvivalstudygracieg4034 Жыл бұрын

The MT is what I ride and it's been my first bike, bought in '21. I do t really have any experience to compare it to, but I can tell the suspension being as soft as it is is probably a choice Yamaha made because they knew a bunch of new riders would be setting wheelies down. I'm getting used to leaning more in the corners and I can't help but wonder how different it would feel with stiffer suspension.

It’s been 19 years since I’ve been on a motorcycle, so I was taking it very slowly. Hardest part so far is remembering I don’t have self-cancelling blinkers! Even more so than rev matching (‘course, I’ve been driving a stick since 2012).

I bought the FZ-07 new in 2016 after watching Chase's review then. Still have the bike and really cherish it. Got rid of my speed triple a few years back, as I always said the Yamaha was more fun. My buddy bought the FZ-09 same day I bought the 07. I rode it and it was an extremely uncomfortable seat. He picked up a lot of bikes after he traded in the 09: a Busa, a Drz400, Ninja 400, a Kawasaki z650 (which was surprisingly buzzy), and i always was more happy to throw a leg over the 07 after riding those. It's torquey, lightweight, reliable, economical, and affordable. I'll have this bike for a long while. I should be picking up an 890 Duke R in a few weeks :)

yeah if you go for sport bike then the R7 is not worth it. why pick the looks of the R7 over the comfort of the MT-07 when the R7 don't even really have that much more power. like what's the point of being uncomfortable and then also compromising on the actual things that makes a sport bike a sport bike. you get all the discomforts of a sport bike but the power of a comfortable naked. also kind of dumb they named it R7 when it's clearly not even a R7 but a MT-07R. i think the R7 would do even better if it was marketed as MT-07R

Coming from dirt bikes, naked style bikes would for sure be the perfect choice for you with the dirt style bars and upright seating position, etc. but if you ever get the chance, try riding a 4 cylinder full fairing super sport like an older model R6 if you wanna stick with Yamaha. Definitely different than the naked style bikes but it’s a type of adrenaline and feeling that is simply unmatched by any other type of bike. Like flying a fighter jet on the ground or something 😂 Ride safe 👌

When switching, being on the R7 seemed like a punishment. Which makes me R7 is a great track bike or second bike. The MT-07 is the daily rider. The bike you could ride every day and hit the track and go off road on some minor trails. It’s almost like a dual sport. It’s almost super sporty. It’s just so good. I have watched EVERY first ride. And nothing has my attention as much as the MT-07.

The R7 with a flat bar conversion and slightly cut front fairing would be the best in between! Kinda like the Aprilia Tuono styling, more manufactures need to take that 'mid' approach!

@rampage3337 2 жыл бұрын

nah i hope not. because this is not a ''mid'' approach. it's a more of a mislabeled bike. it's not a sport bike like the R6 it's just kusins with it. the R7 is a MT-07R . and while i do agree that full fairing versions of the naked bikes is a good thing that we do need. i also think that those bikes should at least not compromise comfort when they got a platform that falls flat on it's face when doing the stuff it's suppose to do. they don't need allot of power but they can't make 70hp and call it a day. i would not actually have anything against them doing something like a 90-100hp bike that revs a bit higher and can live up to the name. not against slower mid size bikes but just think that if you are gonna compromise the comfort then at least go all out and don't half ass it. or just don't build it as a full blown track bike in mind and rather do what they did before and just build a sporty touring bike like the FZ-6R you know something that is a bit more comfortable for daily use but still has fairings and the potential to go racing.

I think you underestimate how much "train for my back" the R7 likely takes. Typical of 'racebikes with lights' is high footpegs and that lean way forward position. The high footpegs can have your hips and knees on the edge of cramping. The lean way forward position not only strains your back, but puts a ton of weight on your wrists and hands as well. It can all get really old, really fast.

To be honest when the R7 was announced I wasn’t a fan, but having ridden on an R125 cbt license for 3 years now and looking ahead it is starting to grow on me. I love my supersports and always love being locked in as you say. Also in terms of price and power it’s a good transition going from 11hp to about 80hp. I was originally thinking the 2020 R6 but that’s about 130hp and more expensive. I would love to jump on the R6 straight away but my common sense is winning me over and the more I do research on the R7 the more I am liking it 🤘

I have the black ‘21 MT-07. Pros: Absolutely love it. Rides great, sounds great, looks great (with TST add-ons.) Cons: ride position. Yes it’s comfortable, but after 60-65mph, these guys are right, you feel like a human wind shield! I’d also like to swap out the handle bars, or maybe do the clip ons. That R7, for me and my riding style, looks like it should’ve been my choice (based on looks and ride style alone.) I came up on sport bikes, so it’s hard for me to not want to lay on the tank and open it up. Other than that, they’re pretty much the same bike (same engine at least). Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t get rid of my bike, but I do prefer the sport bike setup more than the upright. Great video as always, Chase.

OC: Gotta pick the MT07. More comfortable ride and easily the better daily over the R7. As I do so much more commuting then technical riding. Being comfortable during that commute sees me arrive in a better mood. Rather than arrive and being kinda grumpy because my back is sore. Beside once you ride in the mountains doing some technical riding on a naked bike, you'll adjust to that upright position while in turns. So you'll still enjoy mountain riding on the MT07.

I'm mostly going to be riding around small towns and to work and back (20 miles round trip) on a 50-55mph road. The seating position is much closer to downhill mountain biking and dirt bikes and riding a bicycle with no hands which I can do for miles and miles, that I really think I'm leaning MT07. Plus the 2024 with bright teal wheels is really futuristic and cool looking imo.

Hey man, I’m considering getting into ‘sports’ bikes coming from an Indian Scout Twenty and one day I’d like to add something like this to the collection. Either one of these seem perfect considering it actually has some midrange power instead of only top end like the track bikes (only gonna use it for street anyways). Anyways, my question to you is, especially compared to the 1100cc scout with 100hp 72 lb-ft of torque, which both specs are decently higher than this bike, how will they compare speed and acceleration-wise, if you know what I mean? I know normally a 600cc sports bike like the r6 would absolutely smoke my bike, but I’m not too knowledgeable about naked bikes and they’re obviously way different. Either way, point is, my current bike has a good bit more horsepower and torque, so how do these compare in speed? I guess I could always go for an mt-09 or 10 or something if going with a naked considering I’m literally trying to compare a 690cc to a 1100cc, but I was still under the impression these are a bit more sporty than my cruiser and thus would be faster even being much less engine displacement lol. You can tell I’m not knowledgeable

Mt-07 is just hard to beat in just about any category. Bang for your buck. Nothing beats it. Fun factor= top of the line. might not be the best looking bike but its is just so much fun to ride that I can easly overlook that. Im buying a MT-09 but have really thought why not just save quite a bit and get MT-07?

@kameronmclendon557 2 жыл бұрын

As far as fun factors go: I actually hear that the MT-07 is the way to go over the 09. People say since it’s lighter and you feel you get more ‘use’ out of it, it’s more fun. Whereas the other has more power but feels more like a chore doing anything. I think even Chase in one of his videos mentioned he probably would do the MT-07 over his MT10 because of that.

MT-07 for sure, so much so I bought one. Living in East TN I get the best of both worlds being able to commute from the burbs to downtown, and on the same day head up to the mountains and hit the twisties. At 220lbs and 6"1' th MT-07 is so comfortable it was worth the downgrade from the ZX9 as it is an all in one and does all I need it to do while not needing a chopper to fly me out to the chiropractor.

MT-07 is hard to beat even when its compared to basically the same bike. Even with the R7 having a few higher grade components the MT-07 is king on the street. Plus the MT-07 is cheaper. I love mine I know that much.

Ha ha,.... Good review guys. Ok Chase. Hands down the MT . If I had modded that MT....., it would have a lower seat, ( sitting in the bike ,per se), and more cushy seat geometry....>>>> ends you up with the Bolt...( although its an IL2 rather than a CP2 engine). Either way,... The R7 loses it's bet with me....And the MT needs a windscreen to boot. Ciao.

OC - For me probably the R7 because it’s looks amazing and it’d be my first bike to ride and go cruising with friends. The MT-07 would be fun and comfortable but the R7 just does it for me. It wouldn’t be a primary vehicle but if I rode all the time then MT-07.

R7 because i want and need the fairings (both for the style and highway wind protection). It also lets me put a custom paint job & decals on it in the future. But what i'm really struggling with is R7 or Ninja 650. For city & country riding. THAT is the big question. I never considered Yamaha as a starter until the R7. R3 was too weak compared to a Ninja 650, but an R6 was too powerful / expensive. Extremely clever move by Yamaha to put a starter mid-tier bike, more powerful than the R3 but not as wild as the R6 (and reputedly the R7 has a much more linear power band just like the Ninja 650, making it easy to predict). The main remaining advantage to the Ninja 650 i think is that its supposed to be extremely comfortable even during long rides, and that the TFT is spectacularly good, i still dont know how the R7 stacks up in that regard.

@getty6974 2 жыл бұрын

R3 to ninja 650 for starters is a bad comparison, there is a ninja 400 in that category. Also this is not by personal experience but all the info i've gotten from KZfaq ninja650 is the most bland 650 class bike on the market. I know my preferance is only influenced by watching motovloggers talk about these bikes but in that regard i would have to go with the r7 if talking about supersports. Actually i propably would go test ride cbr650r and r7 and choose from those 2. If naked bike i would go definetly with street triple, i love the triumph triple so much for my needs.
