Overview

Born from the Dark Side of Japan, the learner approved MT-07 delivers one of the purest and most thrilling riding experiences you can buy. Famed for its light weight, agile handling and torque-laden CP2 engine, the edgy and aggressive MT-07 is punchier than ever, featuring a compact look, lightweight chassis and technologies to further enhance the riding experience and take this revolutionary motorcycle to the next level.

The latest MT-07 features radially mounted front brake calipers, 41mm inverted forks and lightweight SpinForged wheels. This contributes to a motorcycle with heightened levels of agility, while the innovative acoustic amplifying technology optimises the intake noise and unleashes the famous CP2 growl for the most engaging and immersive ride yet.

Key Features

Acoustic amplifying technology

Contributing to the visceral connection between rider and machine, the MT-07 features a sound amplification system which harnesses the bike’s induction roar, enhancing and channeling it to the rider to increase the grin-inducing feeling offered by the MT’s famous torque.

Torque-rich CP2 engine

The jewel in the MT-07’s crown, the soulful parallel-twin has been developed using Yamaha’s crossplane crankshaft technology. Always known for its engaging response and linear torque delivery, internal upgrades to the latest MT-07 gives it even more accessible performance, improved torque, a vibrant soundtrack and a refined gear change.

All-new minimalist styling

MT-07 gets a new stripped back look with a distinctive ‘face’ from the minimalist LED headlight unit, straight from the Dark Side of Japan. With engineering and styling in perfect harmony, nothing is added to the MT-07 unless it truly enhances the riding experience. The result is a motorcycle which connects to its rider in a way few others can match.

Highly responsive suspension

New 41mm ‘upside down’ forks offer high levels of control and an intuitive level of connection with the front tyre, all while giving a modern look to the MT-07. The highly responsive forks are matched to a linked-type rear shock absorber, which is adjustable for both preload and rebound damping, creating a sporting ride every time.

Revised Chassis

Utilising high-tensile tubular steel for high levels of rigidity and strength, the frame is the same weight as the one found on the previous generation MT-07, at approximately 14.8kg, despite offering between 12 to 13% increased torsional, longitudinal and lateral rigidity. In particular the swingarm pivot assembly differs significantly from the old model, with a new shape, thickness and bracing making it a critical component in determining the balance of the motorcycle and the handling agility.

YCC-T and switchable TCS

YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) facilitates a new generation of electronic aids and contributes to an even more linear power delivery to create a greater connection between rider and machine. Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) allows you to choose between two throttle maps and switchable traction control, with the option of a customisable YRC mode to match your own preferences.

TFT and Smartphone Connectivity

The MT-07’s 5” TFT instruments come with multiple themes and smartphone connectivity via the free MyRide app, so you can now listen to music, as well as view incoming call and message notifications on the dashboard. Full map and turn-by-turn navigation is also available through the free Garmin StreetCross app, all of which can be controlled through the new switchgear.

Large front brakes

Providing next level stopping power, the fourth-generation MT-07 features large twin discs gripped by radially mounted 4-piston brake calipers. The design facilitates strong and consistent braking performance thanks to the increased rigidity, which ensures forces are equally distributed under hard emergency braking.

Commanding riding position

Known for creating a strong sense of unity between rider and machine, the ergonomics of the latest MT-07 are sportier than ever. The wide tapered aluminium handlebars are now lower and closer to the rider, while the rider triangle makes the MT-07 more agile, as well as suitable for all riders with its 805mm seat height.

Lightweight SpinForged wheels

Contributing to a lighter and more agile MT-07, the wheels have been manufactured using Yamaha’s patented SpinForged technology. This allows for a thinner and lighter casting, without compromising strength. Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tyres have been specially chosen as OE equipment for MT-07, being famed for their light handling and all-round capabilities.

New intuitive switchgear

Integrated new handlebar switch assemblies enable operation of the MT-07’s wider range of functions, including smartphone connectivity, navigation and riding modes as well as exploring further menu options. The new turn signals are now self-cancelling and offer ‘three flash’ function for changing lanes. Also new, Emergency Stop Signalling automatically detects emergency braking and applies the indicator lights to automatically notify other road users.
