LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM FRAME

The MT-09 features an advanced, lightweight aluminum frame refined to showcase the MT's signature agility. To ensure both straight-line stability and handling performance, the balance of longitudinal, lateral and torsional rigidity are all carefully considered and finely tuned. The frame is manufactured using the latest in Yamaha's controlled filling (CF) die casting technology which contributes to the MT-09 being one of the lightest bikes in its class at just 417 pounds.

ALUMINUM DIE CAST SUBFRAME

The MT-09 also employs a controlled filling aluminum die-cast subframe that reduces weight and further contributes to the model's signature feeling of agility.

SIX-AXIS IMU

The MT-09 features an advanced six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that retains the base performance of proven IMU in the YZF-R1 but is 50% smaller and 40% lighter due to a thorough review of the sensor layout. The engine control unit (ECU) that receives and reflects the data from the IMU is equipped with three rider aids: a Traction Control System (TCS), Slide Control System (SCS) and front-wheel LIFt control system (LIF). All three systems work together to help the rider concentrate on riding to better extract the machine's potential. Each of the systems can also be turned on or off and have their levels of intervention adjusted to preference. With this best-in-class electronic control technology, the MT-09 gives you the ultimate control in varying weather and surface conditions.

RIDER-SUPPORTING TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM

The Traction Control System (TCS) has three modes: Mode 1, Mode 2 and Mode M for manual settings. Each mode integrates the three rider support systems by changing the degree of intervention for the TCS, SCS and LIF all at once. With Mode M, the user can select his/her preferred levels of intervention for the TCS, SCS and LIF individually.

POWERFUL 890CC LIQUID-COOLED THREE-CYLINDER DOHC FUEL-INJECTED ENGINE

The MT-09 features the renowned 890cc liquid-cooled CP3 engine. Bore and stroke of 78 mm x 62.1 mm and an 11.5:1 compression ratio provide outstanding torque with thrilling power delivery characteristics. The combination of exceptional combustion efficiency and light weight results in an impressive 49 MPG.

EFFICIENT FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM

The fuel delivery system features fuel injectors attached to the throttle valve side of the throttle bodies. The injectors spray at the back of the intake valve heads to promote atomization of the fuel and reduce adhesion of fuel particles to the port walls, producing outstanding combustion efficiency. The throttle valve is operated using the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) electronic system which has been widely proven on YZF series models as well as the earlier MT-09 models.

NEXT-GENERATION DESIGN

With the MT-09 designers sought to better express the major advances made with the machine's performance by visually accentuating the pure power of the bike. The minimalist design concept delivers an exterior with everything but the essentials stripped away to highlight lightness and agility while stimulating the rider's senses.
