As my first KZfaq video, this is a first impression review of the new 2021 MT-09. I wanted to see the improvements for 2021 over the previous model and find out if it worth an upgrade from my current bike, the Honda CB650R (review coming soon). Enjoy.

Thanks for the video. To decide which bike to buy or to keep sometimes seems very difficult as in my case right now. But I also think that it's wonderful thing to be able to ride a bike and enjoy it no matter which. At the end of the day, not having another motorcycle in mind should not spoil our joy. I, for one, think that deciding on a bike is just a detail.

Hey man. I ride a honda cbr650r owned it for over a year now, have got a full exhaust system and power commander, dyno tuned but I'm just waiting for the Yamaha YZF-R9 2022, I really hope they use the mt09 2021 engine, going to install the Woolich race kit too. CANT WAIT FOR IT !!!

Great vid, How did you find the foot pegs compared to your cb650r & was there a big difference in torque? How did you find the balance (chassis performance) of both bikes in the Twisties. Thanks
@thetallbiker9645
@thetallbiker9645 3 жыл бұрын
Hey thanks for watching. I found the foot peg distance/legroom more comfortable on the MT-09 fro my height (190cm), on the CB650R my legs feel a bit more tucked up and cramped but not it's not uncomfortable. The CB is not slow but I found the MT-09 torque noticeably stronger.. to be expected as it's a more powerful bike though. Regrettably I didn't pick the best route for my short test on the MT-09 for twisty roads but I get the feeling from my experience, it would have handled them very well but the CB is not too shabby either. I will hopefully try the MT-09 SP and the Tracer 9 at some point. Cheers

Thanks for sharing the review of the 2021 MT09. Yes, appears to be a very good naked bike for the money; a small fly screen up front would broaden its touring ability. It’s still on my shortlist for a naked this summer, but.....could I really live with those contentious looks? That £9K would buy me a mint Tuono V4😋😋. Decisions! In respect of your decision re: CB650R - I’d say swop. The Honda, imho, is leagues ahead in looks, sounds great and is well screwed together; trouble is you’ve got to spank the motor at the upper revs to get the best from it. If it was providing better lower down torque, I’d keep it.

Thanks for your comment Nigel. I fitted a little givi screen to my CB650R and it makes a good improvement so I’m sure the same would apply to the MT-09. Yes, looks are all subjective but I don’t mind the look of the MT-09 at all. I’m sure the Aprillia would been a hoot to ride, personally I would rather the Yamaha, just because of the larger dealer network and more plentiful availability of parts but when a bike speaks to you, sometimes those sensible issues fade to the background. These bike decisions are the good ones in life though. Thanks for watching. Cheers

I’m about 6’3” and need to sit on this bike to see if it’s comfortable for me. I was more interested in the MT10 until I started going through the specs and performance between the two bikes. After reviewing the horsepower, torques, top speed, 0-60 and 0-100 times , and the mpg differences, I’ve become much more interested in the MT09 SP. One drawback for me with the MT09 SP is the handlebar seems a little narrow.

Hi Danke, we are around the same height and I found it really comfortable and lots of room for my legs. I was also interested in the MT-10 but i just can't accept the high fuel consumption. As for performance, the MT-09 had plenty. Good luck with the decision. Cheers

@@thetallbiker9645 They are both good bikes. I read that the MT-09 SP is actually faster 0-60, but the MT-10 gets to 100mph quicker. The MT-10 also has a higher top speed, but I’m not bothered if the MT-10 does 155mph and the MT09 does 147.9, although both my be restricted in some markets. The gas mileage difference is significant, as the MT-10 gets 30 mpg and the MT-09 is around 49 mpg. I watched another review from a rider that was 6’ tall and your review and both seem to enjoy the riding position, which makes me more interested in trying the bike. It seems like a lot of bike given the price point. Thanks for the review and feedback!

@thetallbiker9645
@thetallbiker9645 2 жыл бұрын
Well, I haven’t ridden an adventure bike for a while but I have ridden an Africa Twin a few years ago and from what I remember, there is more leg room on the Honda and the bars probably a bit higher so, a more relaxed riding position but for a naked, sporty bike, the MT-09 is still very a very comfortable place to be.

@@thetallbiker9645 I'd say test it. I am hopefully going to test ride one soon as local dealership gets them in (Australia). The previous SP model suspension felt great. A bit firmer but really well damped. The adjustments should allow for softening further. I'll try to remember to update this comment once i do but no promises :P

Hey Dylan, well I currently have the 650R and I am very tempted with MT-09 so i'm kind of in the same boat. The 650R is great but if you are able to spend a bit more, you do get a bit more, as in torque and power. I would recommend testing both as you can't go far wrong but... once you feel the instant power of the MT-09, it's hard to forget it. Cheers

I get a smile on my face on every ride and never regret my choice. Be safe
