2021 Yamaha MT-09 | Good Better Best 

I LOVE the fact that THIS MAN, really can speak in the german language but still has the sense of respect for the rest of the world & for that, I salute you.

You are the best reviewer,we get enough time to actually see the bike and no unnecessary music. I am going for the sp! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷❤️

This channel is so underrated, really one of the bests.

Great review always honest! Like the numbers chart which you prepare for each bike evaluation. The Yamaha MT 09 2021 looks great in black and what a lovely bike now with the new changes.

Top quality review, like always. Interesting technical information as a bonus; thanks again, Scott!

Enjoyed your review, as I always do, thanks Scott.

Really great video Sir! Very informative. Appreciate the shot of you giving an indication your height & inseam while sitting on the bike. This bike hasnt yet reached our shores, so for now this is as good as throwing a leg over for me

Hi Scott, thanks for another informative review. And I really appreciate the new useful comparison chart. One thing that might make the chart better, is to have it in the order you’d rank them. Ie, In the order you’d purchase. I look forward to your next video.

Another great review......a previous review helped me make a decision on a 2020 gsxs-750, and now this review has given me the confidence to pull the trigger on a 2022 cyan storm mt09.....I pick it up in 4 days.....thanks again for awesome reviews!

You are a treasure sir. No one like you. One of a kind. Why are you not popular enough. 😤 Really enjoy watching your vids sir.

Grande video, complimenti Scott.

Not my style of bike at all but always a pleasure to watch and listen to your reviews. Thanks

the bike looks very futuristic from the front. btw, awesome review as usual. thank to your previous review of Tiger 900 - proud owner :)

If I already did not own a mt10 I would buy this bike in a heartbeat.

Excellent review as always. Thank you sir

Excellent review. Down to the important. Great. Thanks a lot for that! Nice and simple machine.

Great review ! I’m really considering this as my next bike .

This chap is good. Nice review. Very informative and entertaining. Thanks

This guy always delivers

Great review Scott. 👍

Great review Scott...I'm debating between the MT-07 and this MT-09...You are defiantly one of my go to reviewers for the info....Now just waiting for one to come available in my area...haha

Comprehensive and detailed review as always...Stay safe sir and Godbless 🙏🙏🙏😎😎😎

I never heard you speaking german, Scott, aber es war wieder ein nices Video von Dir. Die MT 09 ist sicher eine gute Maschine, besonders wegen des 3 Zylinders, aber das Design der Front ist unsäglich - spricht eher Twens an. The XSR 900 should be updated for us 50+ riders! Mach' weiter so.

Great video yet again! Vielen dank

Awesome review as always👍

Great review!

Thank you for nice review, one of the best I saw and trust me I saw them all :D. My MT09 will arrive soon. Just idea with foot/gearbox problem. Maybe it could help to move footsteps higher, because they also move backwards a bit with that.

@ 7:05: the front brake calipers are the same as gen 1&2, and they where also radial mount. New on this one is the radial brake master! Nice review!

phenomenal review, the pros, and the cons

Nice Review Scott.

Nice review!

Hello Scott, thanks for this video l went and got one same color and l love it

Yamaha does it again! Great review!

Thanks for sharing scott..watching from philippines.👍

awesome review 👏

Another quality video. 👍

I've been on a demo with the base and SP model both. I also own the previous gen. Agreed with most everything you've said and I do believe the updated model is drastically better. Immediately I noticed the chassis stability, poise, and communication from the wheels even before leaving the parking lot. Two things: Yamaha, please give us a decent sized TFT that you can read in bright sun, dust, etc. and doesn't scratch; Yamaha, give us a 17L fuel capacity.

Excellent video!

I am really liking MT-09. I was just wondering if you will doing review on the MT-07 and comparing the two. Love your channel, ride safe.

You do some good reviews man.

Thanks a lot for this very interesting video.

Interesting detail you mentioned about how EURO5 allows a certain total level of sound and each manufacture ultimately has to fill that with all the sounds of the bike! So interesting I never knew that about the regulations. Great sound! I've ridden the prev gen pretty recently and I noticed the transmission butting up against the right boot at times. So probs the same with this one. Also 100 percent agree re the rear brake. It's robust and very strong. Also not sure if you mentioned the lightweight wheels. They are 700g lighter.

omg ... im glad i subscribed to his channel none of the motorcycle reviewers match his level of maturity while considering everything & speaking Claps to you man...😌 Love from INDIA

I love the new styling, except I'm on the fence with the headlight. A good looking naked bike needs an esthetically pleasing frame, this bike has that in spades. Add Yamaha's industry leading reliability into the NTP chart and this bike is a clear winner, if it wasn't already. Hopefully you will be able to throw a leg over the SP for an upcoming review Scott.

I had already made up my mind I would keep my 2019 MT'09.... but this guy convinced me to at least try the 2021.... nice review.

Love your canal . Lot off interesting facts and opinions. Are you going to review Yamaha tracer 9 gt 2021? I consider this for my next bike. Like your opinion regarding that bike. Ty for a good job.

I really love how this bike does not have a useless exhaust running length of the bike and adding weight across the side Tucking it under the bike like that also lowers center of gravity This bike a real Hit, except I have to say that electronics display is pretty weak compared to the competition. But it's certainly reflected in the price as this bike is the performance for value winner

Great reviews on this channel. Please do a Z900 review. How does it compare to this new MT09. I think it was better than the previous gen MT09, but now I am not sure. What do you guys think ?

I own a 2017 MTO9 in black,I personally favour it a lot more over this bike,looks etc,but that’s just my personal opinion! The transmission sticking out that far on the right would irritate me,good vid 👍🏻

Great review, as always. Regarding the front brake calipers, i dont think they are nissin. I think they are the yamaha owned brand, sumitomo. Only the rear brake caliper is Nissin

Nice review, I'm really curious about the Duke 890 (non R), how it will stack up vs this bike. I can get past the front look, the tiny TFT is fine I suppose but I'm not at the age where I need glasses. I do think the color options aren't very interesting. Cheers

calipers were always radial mount, its the front brake master pump thats now a nissin radial actuated one

Brilliant review 👍👍👍 Nice looking bike but pity about the headlight.

Excellent review - Well done Scott!

Good test👍🏻

Good review! I owned a '19 MT09 and liked it a lot except for that "nervousness" factor especially in long higher speed corners. The previous "hypermotard" steering head height does seem to have been the culprit and I suspect the new '21 SP version with its revisions might be the best bang-for-the-buck in the upper mid class of nakeds.

I did a testride today on the 2021 Tracer 9 and have now ordered a Tracer 9 GT. I hope it will be delievered soon :-)

Hello Scott. The new MT-09 might be the better bike considering her predecessors. But I think they looked way better. Especially the front light! Take care Scott and stay healthy 👍

It's a great bike thanks for the video

Im about to purchase a 21 MT09 so of course watching every review I can find in anticipation. This is one of the best I have seen thus far got a sub from me. And now im curious, I assume you were raised in the US or Canada and live in Germany? If not you have a damn good impression of an American accent lol.

Nice review Scott. I believe the internals of the suspension have also been updated. Yamaha have done a great job of updating this bike. However the TFT is way too small like you said [I wear glasses and still find it too small] and the front headlight assembly is not that attractive. Great motor though and with the new frame it handles like it always should have done. The SP is the one I would go for if it was my money. Any chance of a review on the Kawi Z900? Take care and ride safe.

It would be helpful to create a power-to-weight ratio on your performance chart to rank bikes. Thanks for the review, this bike in the SP spec is starting to appeal to me. Given how thirsty a lot of the liter bikes have become, I’m paying more attention to the mpg of these offerings as well as performance.

Love my MT09. A great platform to then modify. A great all round bike and very reliable despite all the mods including modified engine. 👍

When I was test riding the previous version I had the issue with my shin hitting the clutch cover. It's more pronounced with high boots. The bike is one of my favorites though. I bought an F900R last year, but if I had to do this now, I would go for the MT-09.

that is one nice looking bike Yamaha put alot of thought into that bike

Forged wheels are why it's feels so light. Good review.

4:22 I couldn't agree more, Euro5 gave us more power, more torque, cleaner emissions, and updated designs across the board. I am very grateful for the Euro5 update, looking forward to Euro6!

Very good looking bike.

Love the video and the chart 😂😂

Beauty is definitely in the eyes of the beeholder , I don't like the Yamaha Mt front lights but I love the new GSX-S 1000 front lights go figure. 🤔🤔🤔 I wish Yamaha still had the night fluro colour it was a large part of why a bought a MT09.

Really good bike but even better review

In this video I liked the jeans you were wearing. What brand are they? I hope to have my 2021 MT-09 in a few weeks. Thanks for your reviews. They've helped me.

Thanks for a helpful review. Please comment on riding comfort (aside from transmission protrusion). Also, how does this compare with BMW R1250R….much less costly for sure but in absolute terms which is nicer to ride?

Awesome video, thanks! How is it driving on highways? High wind noise ? I have a sv1000n 2007 now, and maybe I wanna change it to the new Mt09 😁😊

Love your reviews, if possible if you can do an FJR 1300 review & compare to sports tourers of today since it’s sort of a dinosaur, or is it?

Excellent review. Heck ya stand up to those numbers they are the most accurate example on the web Period. Please, your thought on seat comfort?

Great job with the review. What is your country you're making this footage from, Germany?

Any plans reviewing the new Ducati Monster? Pretty much monster or mt 09, can’t decide!

Great Review.. I was just looking on the Yamaha Web site last night .. I already knew about the Ligher Aluminum Frame .. knew about the longer engine stroke.. So many Reviews and no one else told about the changes in the steering head location.. All the Same the Tracer GT suits my needs more and that model seems to have a 2" loswer seat heaight now and I am very short.. so that's a huge plus for me.. Cant' figure out why Yamaha USA web site shows the 2021 Tracer GT weaight going up over previous years.. Also what 6% Fuel milage increase? The MPG was a bit low on the MT-09 compared to the MT-07 Engines with a londer stroke and lower RPP power range tend to get better mpg. I read they made improvents to the fuel injection too for those gains.. in better fuel economy ..

The wheels are lighter too and contribute to improved handling characteristics.

Awesome review! What jacket, riding jeans and boots are you wearing? Please share links. Thank you!

Scott, Thank you for very pleasant, informative and helpful video, please keep it up. ???; 2021 street triple rs or 2021 Yam mt -09 (sp or base) which would you choose,

I'm still wondering either to buy this mt09 2021 or suzuki gsx s750? Can u help me to figure out from you point of view mate?

THAT HEAD LIGHT I JUST THREW UP IN MY MOUTH

I want the SP. Gotta have my cruise control!

Another great review Scott , thank you. Some say the 2020-21 Z900’s are still better than the new MT09 , even with the quick shifter on the MT09...thoughts on this ?

Hi Scott, could you please do a review on the 2021 Tracer 9 GT and compared to your F900XR verbally? Want to hear your view. Thanks and stay safe!

Great videos! New fan! Saw your other video about bmw s1000r. I’m currently in the market to get a bike and a 2019 s1000r with some mods and 8.5k miles is on my list. Along with a 2022 MT-09(brand new) price would be the same but im questioning my decision based on what I want and what I need. I have a commute of 30 miles to and back from work. So cruise control would be nice.I know the bmw has that and for Yamaha the so would have that but none are available anymore. Rider aids are almost the same but not sure if bmw does a better job than Yamaha vice versa. In your experience and based off of this bit of information what would you buy?

Would love to see you ride the 2020+ z900 as well. Ide like to see your comparison between it and this new mt-09

sir please do a z900 2021 review

Ich empfehle die 70kw Variante zu kaufen, egal ob man offen fahren darf oder nicht, denn die 70kw (95PS) Variante ist mit 94db eingetragen, die offene mit 95kw ist mit 96db eingetragen! Im Hinblick auf die kommenden Jahre und jetzt schon in Österreich, wird das Thema Lautstärke eine immer größere Rolle spielen, somit sind jetzt schon viele gezwungen für die große Variante die Akrapovic Komplettanlage für 1800€ zu kaufen - denn damit hat man nur noch 94db ;) 95PS oder 119PS .. das merkt ein normaler Fahrer, selbst bei der sportlichsten Fahrweise nicht! Höchstens ein Profi auf einer Rennstrecke, und selbst dann gehts wahrscheinlich nur um Millisekunden :D

Hey guys, any idea whether the speedo is showing km/h or mph?

Hi Scott Can you do New tracer 9 review.. hello from Greece!!

No more on-off gasreaction, only a bruised ankle;-)

Here are the bikes I’m hoping you review next!: BMW R1250 GS 2022 R1250r 2022 R1250rs 2022 Very difficult to choose when BMW makes so many terrific machines.

What do u think about KTM 890 Duke R? İs it better than MT 09 ?

they could just bolt the screen right on top of the bars make it closer

he is the best mt 09 !!! ,.. i very like this machine ,...soo fun,.. so racing ,..so good !! sorry my ingles ,.. thi,s bike is fantastic !!!!!!!!!!

Me again Scott, This or Triumph Street Triple RS? I own a 2020 RS currently. Thanks again, Eric

This is the leader...................
