Yamaha MT-09 SP 2022

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2022

The fun bike MT-09 is at its best in the SP version! The extremely fun, lively three-cylinder engine feels like more than just 119 hp thanks to the abundance of torque. Add to that terrific, bike-like handling and phenomenal, finely controllable brakes. The upright, rear-facing riding position doesn't take away as much front-wheel feel in the MT-09 SP, as the high-quality chassis gives clean feedback from the road and rides every radius with stability. Unfortunately, as is typical for Yamaha, the clarity of the TFT display and the operating concept of the lush electronics leave a lot to be desired. The seat and pillion comfort could also be better. Otherwise, however, the MT-09 SP is the (almost) perfect bike for massive riding fun.

Absolutely recommended for riders who like sporty riding but also don't want to forego the advantages of a touring vehicle. Whether GT or standard version is a question of taste: if you like to accelerate, mainly ride on good roads and are comfortable with a firm chassis, the standard Tracer 9 will serve you very well. Those who would like to have a bit of comfort on top and also ride longer tours from time to time will appreciate the comfort and additional equipment of the GT.
