Yamaha MT-07 2021

Yamaha MT-07 2021

Simply casual motorcycling! The MT-07 conveys carefree joie de vivre and you love to waggle the lively machine through the bends. The engine is still a guarantee for riding fun. It's amazing how much fire blazes in this little part. Unfortunately, the chassis is still not really good. Together with the missing quickshifter, it is reminiscent of the Yamaha's mild price tag.

Great engine

Pleasant ergonomics

Transparent brake feel

Good price / performance ratio

Transparent handling

Good mix of cool and practical

Chassis finds its limits with a very sporty driving style
