Overview
Over the last decade, the MT-09 has cemented its status as a Yamaha icon and now, there is a whole new dimension to the Dark Side of Japan. All the qualities which make the MT-09 a leader in its class have been elevated to the next level with the introduction of Y-AMT. Feel more at one with the MT-09 than ever before, focus on the adrenaline-inducing acceleration and super-precise handling with gear changes distilled to a sporty and slick finger-operated shift (MT) or fully automatic transmission (AT).
MT offers quicker and more consistent, clutchless gear changes at your fingertips via an intuitive and tactile see-saw switch, enabling the MT-09’s true performance to be unleashed at its full sporty potential. While AT offers simplified shifting with a fully automatic transmission with two options to suit different riding scenarios.

Key Features
890cc CP3 engine
The remarkable, liquid-cooled, three-cylinder engine is light and powerful, offering high torque at low rpm. The acoustic harmony which results from a combination of the induction sound and exhaust note gives the CP3 its recognisable roar, which heightens the feeling of acceleration. And with the sporty gear changes enabled by Y-AMT, the CP3 feeling can be enjoyed even more.
Die-cast aluminium Deltabox
The compact CF (controlled filling) die-cast aluminium frame design is a modern take on the iconic Deltabox layout, providing a high level of chassis stiffness for excellent rider feedback and stability. Its optimised swingarm pivot structure, light and slim chassis give a more laidback feel making the MT-09 Y-AMT a perfect partner for both short and long rides. Adding less than 3 kg to the machine, the Y-AMT system is one of the lightest on the market and also adds no width to the engine either, maintaining the lightweight and sporty character of the MT-09.
5in TFT display with Connectivity
Full colour 5-inch TFT instruments provide an option of four different themes to suit your individual requirements and riding situation, which you can scroll through using the all-new handlebar switches. You can also link your smartphone to the new TFT screen via the free Y-Connect app to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music*. Full map navigation is also available through the free Garmin StreetCross app to make each journey easier.

Agile and Versatile
The MT-09 Y-AMT is an agile and versatile motorcycle, designed to be the perfect tool whether you’re looking for a spirited and sporty afternoon blast, or a more relaxed ride. MT is designed to maximise the thrill of the MT-09’s sportiness on twisty roads, with the fast and slick gearshifts enabling hyper-focus on cornering, braking and throttle application. AT considers both sporty and street riding, with D+ mode tuned for more spirited riding, while D mode is designed to be convenient in the city and on the commute.
Acoustic Amplifier Grilles
The grin-inducing roar of the MT-09 is one of its most defining characteristics, evoking a sense of pure adrenaline with every twist of the throttle. The MT-09 Y-AMT features specifically designed air-intake ducts which accentuate the high frequency sounds, which are then emphasised, especially at higher speed, by an acoustic amplifier grille on top of the fuel tank, delivering the CP3’s vibrant note directly to you.
Refined Ergonomics
The MT-09 is renowned for its agility and stability and this is achieved by refined ergonomics, allowing the rider to feel at one with the machine by offering greater freedom of movement for different riding styles. The handlebar position features two customisable positions, while the footrests are also adjustable. A two-part seat further amplifies the feeling of freedom while riding.
Brembo Master Cylinder
In order to match the MT-09 Y-AMT’s high torque and acceleration, excellent stopping power is provided by a Brembo radial master cylinder, which produces a linear supply of pressure to the four-piston calipers, mounted to the dual 298mm front discs and offering outstanding braking performance with finger-tip control.
Customisable Ride Modes
Customise your riding experience via the Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) settings, which allow you to select engine power characteristics and the level of electronic intervention to suit your preferences and road conditions. Three integrated riding modes are programmed with factory settings to suit different situations: SPORT, STREET and RAIN; but you can also create two custom programmes to suit your individual preferences. The YRC settings can be customised directly in the dashboard menu or on your smartphone via the Y-Connect app.
