Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha MT-10 2024
The new MT-10 is a really successful evolution of its predecessor, but remains completely true to its character. The new electronics package with a 6-axis IMU is a blast, all features are so well coordinated and work so well together that the rider is optimally supported by the electronics in every situation without being overbearingly patronised. The rest of the components in the chassis and brakes are completely in order and the Mad Max-Brachialo style look has been toned down a little in direct comparison to the predecessor, but still remains unique and clearly recognisable as an MT-10.

The epithet "Beast" is not completely out of the blue, the KTM is and remains a brutal naked bike - 177 hp from two pots with a combined displacement of 1301 cubic metres is nothing harmless. Nevertheless, it is surprisingly easy to control; the upright seating position combined with the good handling make it seem almost docile. Compared to its predecessor, it has been improved precisely at its weakest points. The engine now runs more smoothly, the shift assistant brings calmness in the acceleration phase and the chassis has been improved in quality. But it still loves the wild chase more than high speed in long curves.
