Yamaha MT-07 review - is it better than the Triumph Trident? 

I'm really stuck between these two bikes having tried them. A new 22 plate MT07, or nearly new trident with quick shifter. Both same price, aaaargh!!!! I'm returning to bikes after 20 years off and now living in France. Not much baggage options on Trident, main pitfall

MT07 all Day! I've never rode the Trident but I own an mt07 with an exhaust and it's an amazing machine, save some cash over the triumph and do some basic upgrades and you have a street slaying beast of a bike!

Great review. Change the exhaust and it sounds amazing!

Regarding the engine sound, the MT07 is the best sounding bike with aftermarket exhaust. This is out of all bikes I've ever heard.

If you got either, you wouldn't fee short changed. I bought the trident, the looks over the yammy, was the 1st thing, then the triple engine for its extra revs and lastly, the chassis, triumph always seems to get this right.. Did think of the xsr 700, but felt the trident was a newer design. Am really enjoying this bike still, after 8 months. 👍Thanks for the video.

A really decent review and much appreciated to. Thinking of getting one pretty soon now. I'm moving from a 1250 Bandit which I find quite weighty these days, plus I rarely use the bandit engine above 4000rpm. I need a more day tripping/ weekend camping trips use machine. I've found your video quite encouraging. Many thanks indeed for this. I hope your keeping well and enjoying the riding

Yes, if bikes are supposed to be fun, the MT07 is far better then the heavier, sluggish Trident. Stick an after market exhaust on that and it will come alive.

I had a SCProject can on mine, I loved it. Wish i'd kept it now. Time for another one. Yes Please.

I reckon the TRX850 was far ahead of its time.

I lost you at "sounds like learner bike" without mentioning it sounds like a beast w exhaust.

is the torque and hp only down for the euro market? Wonder what the USA specs are for torque and hp on the 2021 and 2022?

Mmm not everyone likes a Tripple noise and Mt07's sound great with a aftermarket pipe.

Trust you to find THAT carpark! :D

I love my CB650R. A bit more grown up, lovely quality finish and a screaming 4 cylinder engine. It's a superb machine.

The best value for money machine period. However an upside forks would have been better 👍

When you put a can on in it sounds 1000 times better

The MT-07 is the rascal, the Trident is the sensible option, up to you 😀.

Does the 2021 Yamaha MT-07 make a buzzing noise when you're riding it? I have a 2007 Kawasaki 650R Ninja, and even though it's an excellent bike, it has a fairing or cowling buzz which ruins the riding experience. Thank you.

Gonna say it... Tim Rodie reviews are better than Carwow.

the mirrors do start spinning by the way lol

How does this compare to the Duke 790 and 890?

Clutch it up in 2nd? Hell, I can snatch it up in 3rd. And I'm sure my New bone stock mt 07 isn't special.

The sound of the mt07 is the best thing about it, just sounds mean. Triumph can’t follow it on sound

I nearly want to get a bike licence 🙊

What flavor accent is that????

You worked at carwow for the forbidden ginger? Doing what?

Seems like a great bike. My big irritation are vlogers/reviewers. An expose of a goofy aspect of Western culture ... bigger is always better ... if its a large displacement bike, and guzzles gas it must be for 'advanced' riders. .. ad nauseam drivel about bikes for 'newbees'.Maybe when gas is three times what it is now there will be a change in thinking.

The Trident looks so much better.

Needs a fruity slip on !..then you’ll notice the character!

It`s got to be the Trident definitely the better bike, Triumph are showing the Japanese the way.
