I own a MT07 and a R1. 90% i take the MT07- for its price and power, the fun is unbeatable

Each time I watch your videos, I like my MT-O7 even better. I am 69 years old and just bought one. No comparison with my 1985 Yamaha 650 XS. Greetings from Switzerland.

I have an MT07, had it for about a year, and I absolutely love it. So much fun to ride. Its my first bike, and one I think I'll have for a long time.

I own a 2023 MT-07 and it really is a amazing bike. The only thing I would change after the exhaust upgrade is a slightly beefier suspension. I say this because I weigh 230lb and that is probably heavier than most.

I got my MT07 more or less the same time as you did (Aug 22) and love it. It's been great watching you do the same mods I did (tune, exhaust and all). It is indeed a great little bike for the price you pay and on top of it all very reliable!

waddup CRUZA, Im taking a motorcycle class this weekend. wish me luck

I’m 46, never driven a motorcycle before and I’m looking for a my first bike. Just looking to commute to work and ride on the weekends. Man! you make me wanna but an MT07 with this video lol

My old MT07 was the most fun bike I had. After a spell on the Firebalde, GSXR, Speed Triples, S1000R and MT10s I was toying with going back down to an MT07 as such a fun bike. However I ended up on a ‘21 Street Triple 765 RS which I now believe is the perfect power for the street, only downside is it doesn’t have that Harley ish sound but so fun. All for sub 1000cc bikes now for the street

Another thing that I find people don't really mention is the fuel range. 350 to sometimes over 400km on a 14 litre tank!!! (I live in Australia so you guys will have to do the conversion to miles and gallons I guess). Anyway, my wife and I celebrated being married 20 years last year by buying each other an mt07 and have put almost 20 000kms on then in under a year. We use them for everything from long trips to daily commuting. Best thing we've done for ourselves in years I can't help but smile every time I get on the thing. Sounds awesome, perfect power and comfortable riding position plus probably most importantly, so much bang for your buck. Love your vids mate. Your content helped me decide when I was breaking down what it is we were gonna get.

Another MT-07 video, it's a great bike. I own one myself and I'm not selling it. But let's keep it movin.

I ride a 9 and I adore it. I also have a 7 which I haven't been on since I got the 9. The 7 has spent the last year or so sat unused in the garage but reading all the comments I think it's time it was put to use again. It's a criminal shame for it to sit any longer I reckon

I agree when you bought your MT07 in "22" they were hard to find in the dealerships. Yesterday checking the two dealers within 15 mi. of my house netted 11 new 23/24 MT07's in stock so it appears that availability is no longer a problem with this model. As the owner of a new (23) GSX 8S I personally found the way Yamaha spec'd the MT07 a bit too budget but all these 270° P-twin's provide a similar fun factor biased platform and preference variables will determine which is best for you.

I got my MT-07 today! Looking forward to riding it

Hoping they announce at MT 07 SP version one day. That would be so sick!

I just got myself the 2024 MT-07 and every ride im loving it more and more. just got the standard akrapovic exhaust ordered :0

I sat on a GSX8S, GSX8R, 2 CFMoto 450s, a 636 and I think a couple others today, and i chose the MT-07 purely for the riding position. You hit the nail on the head on the rider triangle being beautiful 👌🏼

One word - FUN. I sold my 2008 R1 and purchased a brand new 2017 FZ-07 seven years ago. I don't have to worry anymore about dropping my R1 and my back, my neck, my big ass, and my joints thank me after every ride.

I mostly agree! I still love my old 2014 MT07, I got it for super cheap second-hand. Also, from what reviewers have said the competition has its downfalls, so the Honda CB750 Hornet is not very torquey at the bottom and the power comes on higher up in the revs even though its twin. Then the Suzuki GSX-8S has an engine which is basically like a bigger CP2 BUT its a MUCH heavier bike and pricier last time I checked. The Triumph Trident 660 is not bad but also is not super torquey in the low RPM and you have to spin up its triple for a good time and also doesn't sound as beefy as the twins in this category. Forget the KTMs as their pricing knocks them out of consideration, also they are known to be unreliable (sorry KTM fans). My main choice will always be the Yamaha due to it's mixture of low weight and low down torque. My next bike will probably be the MT09 as I'm hitting 100+ MPH during my commutes and sometimes at those speeds I want a little extra power.

Congratulations, you have kept a second bike for over a year. That's great. I love the MT family and especially with the round headlight.

Yamaha Davidson made me laugh so damn hard bro xD

Cyclecruza inspired me to buy a 2023 mt07 and I love it!

Got my license last week, bought an mt-07 last saturday and I get to pick it up next saturday. Really cant wait to ride it!

I'm with ya on the cable clutch, .... to me the more simple the bike the more fun!!

Best for beginners and intermediates. It also looks and sounds amazing. Yes i have one!

The MT-07: hands-down the best bang-for-your-buck middleweight naked. 3 years ago. Every major motorcycle channel that's had a head-to-head showdown of all the new nakeds have only agreed on one thing: of the new nakeds, the MT07 is unanimously last place. But you do you must have access to information they don't, as you continue saying that the MT07 is the best, while having never ridden the new Suzuki, Honda, KTM or Street Triple. Well, I guess I know where you stand: the bike you currently own is the best (despite having not tried the others). And my father is the toughest man in the world and I'm gonna be an astronaut and a movie star when I grow up. Listen, I used to never miss a video, but honestly, this sh*t's gettin' old. Peace

I have a 2022 R7, got it with 2miles back in March 2022, I now have 61k miles on it, it's such a fun bike, I get a lot of hate from bigger CC riders but oh well I'm happy with it, taught my gf how to ride on it too and she loves it. Definitely would recommend the R7/MT07, I have the M4 full exhaust and sounds great. I also want to get a H2 or S1K next, gonna keep the R7.

I don't mind seeing the mt07 on your channel it's a nice bike. I like it, plus you've got your perfect and you don't have to spend any more money. I was wondering why you were looking for another bike 😅

G’day I’m just a learner picked up a brand new 2023 3 days ago. I’ve only ridden 100km in 2 days (third day was wet and I need to get used to the road before I get used to a wet road) I did ride dirt bikes when I was younger for awhile that was 15 years ago I’m 34 now as a learner I’d say just always be mindful of the throttle especially when your learning…. Having said that if your completely new to bikes And the road I’d say don’t get one…. You’ve got enough things to be worried about you don’t need to be worried about wether or not your going to blip the throttle and flip the bike or have it slide out from underneath you. But man I agree with you about the sound I put a vandemon exhaust on and even with the silencer in it is loud. So far I’m absolutely loving this bike and couldn’t recommend it enough to someone that has a bit of experience with bikes and a good head between there shoulders. Loved the video 👍👍

I was so close to getting one, but i decided to get the xsr900. Now, i am in ❤️. All i am doing is customizing it. I hated the exhaust system, and then i got kelpi exhaust. It's loud like an airplane ✈️. I dont have many videos as i put it away for the winter.

Been looking between this and the Kawasaki z650 performance, after multiple reviews from my favourite motorcycle channel I’m choosing the mt07

I have a T7 and love the CP2 it is an amazing engine. I wouldn’t mind having one only because I know that engine it is amazing plus cheap to insure and all the power you need

I’m considering an MT-07 and a Triumph Trident 660. The Trident has a lot to offer

And this is why i got a mt07 a few years ago. Ergonomic, looks good, sounds good

Should have got that white VFR800 from the dealer at 0:05

I've had mine since 2016, has almost 30k miles now. I was looking to sell it to buy a FTR1200 or something else with more power, but then I just got on it and rode it, and when I got back I was like "why do I want more bike?" its already dangerously fast for the average person lol. Instead of spending a ton of money on a new bike, I just ordered the Hordpower intake and Tune to fix the slight drop in top end power, EBC pads for front and rear for a little more initial bite, KTech Razorlite rear shock (I have never changed the OEM shock lol) and some other goodies to address all of the little annoyances of this otherwise incredible bike. can't wait to have it all done.

Would like to own one, but that Ducati 698 mono has caught my eye. 9,000 mile oil changes 17,000 mile valve adjustment. Although Yamaha builds robust bikes they are very durable and fun. So hard choice for now.

That's what I loved about my modded 2000 Buell M2 Cyclone....1200cc simple air cooled, carbureted design. Bigger cams, performance exhaust, forcewinder air filter....100hp 90-ish ft lbs of torque...Not the fastest top speed. The fastest I had it going was 140 & that was enough for me....But 0 to 60 in around 2.9 to 3.1 seconds...Also comfortable upright riding position and lightweight, good handling....It sitting around broke under a tarp, wish I the money & workshop to fix it up.

I have the same MT color and all. And it was my first bike I purchased. Just got back from deployment and got me a streetfighter V4. Bes Naked Street bikes on the market. Yamaha and Ducati

Hey CC! Any plans for a Hornet review?

Rode my sons MT 07 and it gave me the MC bug. Went out and bought a GSX 8S as I liked the design, one was *in stock* 😉, and it has the same draw as the 07 power and torque delivery-wise. I wanted to buy a brand new bike. Had a MT07 been in stock anywhere, I very well might have bought it instead.

3:52 haha hope old homie behind you on his harley didnt hear the smack we talking lol

I've always ridden Yamaha enduros but if I ever get a street bike, this seems like a good candidate. Yamaha has built some tempting mid-sized twin cyl. cruisers.

How about some long distance touring with a Harley bagger or sport touring this spring. Just bike and gear.

I have a 22 KTM RC390 and I can tell you that the KTM electronics and premium stuff on that bike feels really cheap, they advertise that WP suspension but a bike with roughly 40 HP, it doesn't feel like it was needed even on track. I am soon thinking of getting the R7 to be a hybrid street/track bike, I came from an MT-10 2 years ago and although I regret selling it and put 20k (S)miles on it, I think the R7 will be the happy medium for me.

I got a new mt07 in 2022. I keep thinking I'm gonna sell it and buy something else. Then I ride it and giggle myself sick because it's just so fucking FUN. I can't ever get rid of it. I'd still like to upgrade the suspension. But man the cp2 engine is unbeatable.

You got a 22 model right. I did, I’m having a birthday party for it on February 16

Love your channel man!

I ride a FZ07 and came off a 600rr. Sometimes I miss the speed, but the FZ compensates for that it’s too much fun

I love my MT07HO as well. Super fun for commuting around town.

Been watching you for a while you only put 600plus miles on this mt 07?

Tried it a few times but got myself a CFMoto CLX700. Cheaper , 5 year guarantee , slight better looks imo (but very personal), cruise control. Yay!

That's why I love my SV 650, simplicity, no ride by wire/crazy tech just do it your self bike, not crazy heavy, nimble, low seat height, low down torque and most importantly that V twin, I love parallel twins specially with 270 crank but v twin is v twin, it is a shame that they are killing it right now because stupid emissions and production costs.

I’ve been searching for a while for this bike in my area and every time it gets bought before I can get in there 😭😂

Simple answer, outside of a Grom the MT07 is legit the most fun hooligan wheelie machine. You just can't get off a MT07 without a smile, it's just so enjoyable as you fully feel connected to the bike while you're riding it. Also any dealership around me is pretty much sold-out of them year round. Even if someone trades one in for a more powerful bike, that MT07 won't stay long at that dealership.

I test rode the MT 07 at Yamaha Demo Days and that is a light very fast bike. Sounds great!

I wanna get an mt07 as a first bike. I don’t have any dirt bike experience or anything but I really like all the reviews I’ve been hearing about this bike. And I especially like the fact that it doesn’t have a lot of technology. So it’s beginner friendly and old school.

This camera is better than before.

My personal recipe : 1. MIVV Delta Race Full Exhaust 2. DNA Filter and Stage 2 3. YSS Fork Upgrade and Rear Shock 4. 520 Chain Conversion with 15T and 43T

Ive had the ducati hypermotard with 110hp and id rather ride my mt07 anyday, ive had 3 now! Perfect motorcycle honestly

Hey! Love you videos. Do you have an opinion over the mt 07 vs the fz6? I suppose they're totally different bikes (inline 4 vs parallel twin), but fz6's could be found for $3-5k 👀

The MT-07 is the screwdriver of Motorcycling, it's useful, cheap, but it gives no pride of ownership. It's happy to live in the 90's/early 2000's It disappears on Bike nights, no one would ever looks back and take a second glance at it stance, or how it looks, it's just dry toast. I do have to hand it to Cruza for being able to stick with with such a bike for so long. No one is going to call you "Moto-Jitsu" who changes bikes more often than we change a roll of toilet paper...I do give you credit, for sticking to your choice of Bike.👍

Heh Yamaha Davison 😄 I guess that would make my MT 09 a hopped up Yamaha Davison👍

@CycleCruza have you looked into the 2023 XSR900. I’d love a comparison between the 2. Since it’s got the tener 900 rear arm for longer base and so on(compared to mt-09) you may like the suspension a lot. But I think it’d be awesome to get your opinion!

In the process of getting my liscens and hoping to be on a new All black MT07 by the beginning of summer. Im 5'6'' , will seat height be an issue? Other than thatim excited.

Great vid! The Honda Hornet 750 looks better on paper than the MT-07, but it is still not available in US/North America.

Cruza needs to do a end of year wrap up video 🤘🏻🛵🛺🏍️

The MT07 is my dream bike Iam 35 and I love the old school feel no rider ads traction control wheelie control this whole six-axis IMU I have been on my friends bikes and the bike feels like it's Riding you not you riding it. Can't wait to get the MT07 just needs better suspension

You really NEED to test ride a 2022+ Yamaha XSR900

CC, what do u think of the new MT09 with all the improvements?

What year would y’all recommend getting??? I plan on buying one soon!!!!

Cycle Cruza morning Joe!!!

Do you use an Akrapovic exhaust? I'm having a hard time telling what it is. I skimmed through comments and had trouble figuring it out. If someone knows, please let me know. I currently still own my first bike, which was a Suzuki SV650, and I'm ready for my next bike.

I am between an mt07 and an r7 dunno wich one to buy, but your videos make an interesting point and make me wanna buy an mt07 haha

Cruza, Why not trade up to the T7 with the same engine to add to your bike collection for some off road slide action?

Still waiting to get my mt03 new tire and get back to it, but the 07 might just be the upgrade to make for a forever bike man. I can do the thing and get the same ugly ass (i love it) teal rims 😂 and have a real banger. Turtle gang for now cause I love it and still have lots to learn out here on the streets. Your positivity is welcome. Ride on cruza!

owning a cbr 600 rr and a ktm 690 smcr had a couple of chances to ride it and i just think the mt o7 is a little vanilla :D

5:00 "The yamaha gsx8s or whatever..."

@cyclecruza i have an z750 from 2012.. maybe i need to switch over and buy an mt07? Share your toughts bro

shut up HEAVY! AND LET US HEAR THE MOTORCYCLE WHAT A HEAVY DUDE!

There's a 2023 mto7 and a 2024 mto7 at my dealership available. They look so beast shiny new.

It’s good you think your bike is the best. It ain’t true, but it’s good to think your bike is. If you think it is best, it is the best for you.

would like to see a comparison of mt 07 and new Hypermotard 698 mono

Any chance you could do a video about the klx230sm? Thinking about buying one and not many reviews on it.

Im gonna go watch your mvlogs on the CBR

i think its 1 of the best bikes ever made.

You should get a Triumph Street triple 765, to do a comparison.

They have a couple at thrillpoint last I went

Did you just insult Yamaha by calling the Suzuki a Yamaha 😢

Love my MT-07 and other bikes have come and gone the 07 stays!

When are you getting a 2024 MT-07?

Just don't sell it ! It's the perfect bike for comuting, period. Keep up

I had one in 2020 and next week I'm going to take my brand new 2024, this bike is just pure, it is what it is, a powerful engine, with no bullshit, good feeling, and a lot of fun. I tested an honda hornet and for sure it's even more powerful but I fell it was too much, i didn't need that, and also all the rest of honda looks so cheap and full of bullshit, but I've been a honda hater my all life hahahah

Funny 😂 good stuff

With the mods you've put into this bike I think your best bet is to buy the next bike and then decide which of the 2 to keep. Don't sell this one before you know

I wanted one when I started out (they were first released), I got a used older beat up 1998 vfr800, I see the FZ-07 more like a big grom; kinda hooliganesc, but that insurance is way more cheaper than a sport bike. I feel that younger upcoming riders are hit hard with that high insurance and I talked to this one guy who was paying 200 bucks monthly plus insurance for a 2022 gxsr (he was early 20s). At this point I got 8 years of experience and thankfully no major accidents, I find that any lightweight bikes are king. PS: also waiting for CC to say the grom is all you need on the street.
