In 2014, Yamaha released a new standard that was an instant hit – the FZ-09 offered an impressive amount of performance for the price, immediately being named Best Middleweight by Cycle World in 2014 and then Best Standard in 2015.
As Cycle World put said, the FZ (which was later renamed to MT to sync up with the Masters of Torque designation in other markets) “epitomizes sporting all-rounder, serving as a fine commuter, back-road scratcher, or even a trackday mount…you’d be hard-pressed to find a greater performance-per-dollar value on two wheels. And its three-cylinder powerplant might be the most spirited and fun street engine we have ever sampled, a great helping of its 108 horses and 62 pound-feet delivered right now any time you twist the throttle. It’s a bike that does it all and will make you smile every time you ride.”
A significant update came in 2017, giving the MT-09 significantly improved suspension front and rear (compression damping was upped by 83%!), a new subframe, more comfortable seat, standard ABS and traction control, slipper/power-assist clutch, and an optional quick-shifter.
