Which would you pick?

@ayedee6681 Год назад

both :) Also, need to add the XSR900 to the mix just to further confuse us all. FTR is just such a cool looking bike, have you seen FortNine's review of the FTR?

The MT09 is better value for money for sure, and Yamaha make awesome bikes.. But I wouldn't turn around to look at the Yamaha after parking it in my garage. That's the difference.

@mauriesl Год назад

Love that last you said, cause it's true. I have a 2019 FTR and sometimes go outside to the shed where it's parked and just watch it for a minute.. ☺

@Whatever.168 Год назад

Exactly. Perfectly put.

@notengospacebar 11 месяцев назад

That was my ultimate decision to go FTR. The mt09 is pretty AND fast AND cheaper…. But i like the ftr 😂

@Utubermensch21 4 месяца назад

Exactly bro! 🎉😎👍

@2kanchoo Месяц назад

I have an mt-09 and totally agree haha. They are a pretty amazing bike for the money though. Especially with all the rider modes etc. A person could literally get one as their first bike and just so long as they had the basics and self control drive mode 4 is shockingly tame.

@hotfire3291 11 месяцев назад

The FTR S called my name…. A few days later I bought it and many months down the road I have zero regrets

@ThatLad685 Год назад

God that FTR is so beautiful tho, definitely gives it a distinctive edge.

@motorbikeaddict Год назад

I've got the FZ09 and love it, but would love to test out the FTR for sure

@Jeeeee-in6hi Год назад

I traded a streetbob 107 for a 22 FTR S, absolutely love it.

What about… XSR900? It has a longer swingarm now. Easier to keep the front end down.

Nice review Jon. Love the FTR!

The FTR are excellent bikes! Very underrated

@jordangonzales6756 8 месяцев назад

I just bought a 2023 FTR carbon a couple months ago, I just walked into the Indian dealer and I had no idea what it was but it called my name. The carbon fiber with the color of the Ohlins suspension, the bike makes you kinda itch and tweak to ride it. 20 minutes after I first saw it, I was buying it. there's so many aftermarket mods you can put on it to make it better and go even faster. I deleted the rear fender and Christmas light turning signals with something more inconspicuous, Then I slapped a quick shifter on and then a full Toce low mount exhaust (without baffles of course) with a Loydz Garage tune and I swear to all that is holy that I have the baddest and meanest bike on the road in California.

@ronhamelin 5 месяцев назад

I've had the FTR Carbon since April 2023. What an incredible bike. And the looks it gets with all the carbon is pretty cool.

@bobvandick2546 Год назад

MT09 for me...weight, quickshifter, and bang for the buck!

@richardcerritelli9657 4 дня назад

Dude I feel you but I just can't get past the looks Indian is so much better looking than Mt 09 I probably bring it to bed with me at night lol and the Yamaha so freaking ugly. And everybody that has one seems to love them the Indian. For that I probably would go with the Indian.

@viperq Год назад

Yikes there is $7450 price difference between the MT09 and FTR Carbin. I'd probably go with the base model FTR which is cheaper. MT09 is probably best naked for the price, but not fan of the headlight.

@user-sw2lv3zp6o Год назад

I'd rather have an FTR, but the MK1 basic version with the flat track size wheels and round non-TFT clock. I like basic bikes.

@BlackdogADV 9 дней назад

I could never get use to how the FTR looks. And with the weight difference I’d go for the Yamaha.

@richardcerritelli9657 4 дня назад

Dude what are you talking about I think it's one of the hottest bikes on a planet looks wise anyway the yamaha's one of the ugliest bikes.

@claytonluke81 Год назад

If you are a specs/budget guy, mt09 all day. If you go based on feel and how a motorcycle speaks to you, it's a toss up. FTR speaks to me in more of my passion. Also, your wheelie skills are insane. I'm way too scared to get to the balance point or beyond. Mine are wimpy and i'll keep it that way.

@robbyclark6915 Год назад

If money is no object, I’ll take the FTR. Since money is always an object, I would buy the Yamaha and love it!

@jimboulter3615 5 месяцев назад

I’ve owned Both. The FTR has more character and is more visceral and raw. Bikes aren’t about spec sheets. They are about how they make u feel. This is why the FTR wins for me. I tried a 2023 XSR 900 for mine with no regrets.

@kevincrawford6864 4 месяца назад

Newer yamaha headlights are ugly imo on mt series, great bikes though

@zackeriahthurman3666 5 месяцев назад

What is the FTR? is it the 17" wheels? Or the older 18/19?

@Jon's Moto Garage hell yea I'll keep an eye out for ya!! I was trying to make out where you were riding in your ftr video it looked like the casino .

@dry509 10 месяцев назад

What year is this Mt-09?

@reubenjonson3179 Год назад

I thought a quick shifter was supposed to allow you to bang the next gear without letting off the gas. I noticed that the way you shifted on the MT-09 is the same as how I shift my 2019 FTR. No clutch, let off a little, and select the next gear, but I don't have a quick shifer.

@2kanchoo Месяц назад

To shift up you have to be on the gas at least 15%. So he could at full throttle if he wanted to. To downshift have to be off the gas all the way.

@davidgardner925 3 месяца назад

If i only had enough to buy a mt09 sp id be perfectly happy with it cuz your not really looking at it while you ride. But if i had enough to get the ftr carbon.. thats the 1 thats got my eye and id be proud to look at and ride. Probably het more random people saying sweet bike to the ftr too. They just killed it with the styling. If i was still 20 id go mt09 sp no question prolly put a turbo on it too lol but now being a dad of 3. I think id make better choices and just enjoy the ride more at slightly slower speeds on the ftr.

@simianrogue 2 месяца назад

MT09, like the XSR900 (prior to the updated model XSR900), isn't a true 900cc engine, but an 847cc. My XSR900 is the 2017 model and a blast to ride. After three years of ownership - being second owner - I'm now mulling over if it's time to let her go? It's just a shame the OEM exhaust for the XSR900 is so damned heavy (20 or so pounds). It's definitely a city bike and not one for long sustained commuter journeys, as the exhaust note of an after market exhaust will eventually kill your eardrums.

@popdatclutch3010 15 дней назад

The more i look up about this bike the more i realize it’s just a sport cruiser. I saw a video where even the super hooligan in motoamerica doesnt handle perfect and is hard to ride on the edge of the tire. Sick bike tho. Only American bike id get once i got old

@soyuz1234 4 месяца назад

My heart says FTR1200 but my brain says MT09 due to my novice skill level. Happy with my choice

Decat (just decat, keep the stock Akra can) the FTR & trust me 🥲 … you will love it even more

@mrballpython2105 9 месяцев назад

I'm also willing to bet insurance will be a bit cheaper for the FTR. Far less of those on the road and barely any of them get found pulling wheelies or running from the cops like the MT-09 is famous for.

@06330i 2 месяца назад

Had a 2023 FTR Carbon R for 6 months. Unfortunately it was a massive piece of junk and was in the shop more than I rode it. Sold ot and bought a 2023 Kawasaki Z H2 SE and never looked back.

Haven’t ridden either but started on crotch 🚀, Buell’s and then drank the Harley koolaid. I prefer the muscle, torque and character over the smooth , refined speed, if I had to choose. Indian

@oledevon 10 месяцев назад

Could you take a msf course and use any one of these as a brand new beginner?

@Tyquelle97 3 месяца назад

I’d say the MT09, ftr is heavier, and REALLY quick. There’s rain mode, but I think the Nanny’s on the MT are a big help to newbies between power adjustment, wheelie control (selectable levels), abs control, and traction ctrl . I have the FTR but it’s my 2nd bike, I was close to choosing the MT, but that FTR was beautiful inside and out.

@2kanchoo Месяц назад

If you have self control the mt-09 yes. Put it in drive mode 4 (rain mode) and it pulls power and throttle response enough you could learn on it. Plus it's so light super easy to handle. The problem is most people don't have self control or overestimate their abilities too soon and would crank it up. Full on the bike is stupid fast. Even with wheelie control maxed on mode 1 (full power) you can't full brap it or you're front tire is going in the sky.

@tedbaxter5234 Год назад

FTR Carbon for me please.

@rspraveenkg 4 месяца назад

The reason MT09 wins is because it’s easy to handle, corner and flick and have FUN 🤩.

@michaelhayward7572 Год назад

XSR900... or an older Monster 1100 Evo...

@jocoloco1320 Месяц назад

If you're ever feeling like Indian might be a good option. Look at the prices of their accessories.

@NudaMan Год назад

I’ve ridden triples before but I always come back to a Twin cylinder no matter what, so the Indian would be a great fit because of the rotax Vtwin that’s in it like my 2003 Aprilia RSV Mille with a rotax engine 🤌🏾
