Born from a piano maker, the Japanese brand has forged its identity on a unique blend of performance, elegance, and technological innovation. From small urban scooters to the legendary YZF-R1, Yamaha builds motorcycles that stand out through their character and riding pleasure.\n\n## How did a piano maker start building motorcycles?\n\nThe story begins in 1887, when Torakusu Yamaha founded Nippon Gakki (now Yamaha Corporation) to manufacture reed organs and pianos in Hamamatsu, Japan. The company quickly became the country's largest musical instrument manufacturer.\n\nDuring World War II, Nippon Gakki was conscripted to produce wooden and later metal aircraft propellers. After the war, the factories sat idle. In 1953, president Genichi Kawakami made a bold decision: repurpose the company's machine tools and metallurgical expertise to manufacture motorcycle engines. The reasoning was clear — the musical instrument market alone wouldn't sustain the company's industrial capacity.\n\nThe first prototype was based on the DKW RT 125, a small German motorcycle whose design had been widely copied worldwide after the war. But Yamaha didn't simply copy — the manufacturing quality, inherited from the precision demanded by musical instruments, made the difference. The result, the YA-1 (nicknamed \"Akatombo,\" the Red Dragonfly), launched in February 1955. That same year, it won the 125cc class at the Mount Fuji Ascent Race and swept the podium at the All Japan Autobike Endurance Road Race.\n\nOn July 1, 1955, the motorcycle division was officially spun off from Nippon Gakki to become Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., with Genichi Kawakami as president. Racing was embedded in the brand's DNA from day one.\n\n## From two-strokes to world conquest\n\nThrough the 1950s and 1960s, Yamaha bet heavily on the two-stroke engine (a simpler, lighter engine type that was highly valued in competition at the time). The brand introduced the first five-speed gearbox on a Japanese motorcycle with the YDS-1 in 1957, then developed the Autolube system in 1964, which automatically injected oil into the engine — no more hand-mixing oil and gasoline in the tank.\n\nIn 1961, Yamaha entered international Grand Prix racing. The first victory came in 1963 at the Belgian GP in the 250cc class. By 1964, Yamaha had secured its first world rider and constructor titles in the 250cc class. The rivalry with Honda — which would last for decades — was on.\n\nIn 1968, Yamaha made an important shift with the XS-1, its first four-stroke motorcycle: a 650cc twin that competed directly with the British Triumph Bonneville and BSA Gold Star. Unlike Honda, which quickly moved to four-cylinder engines, Yamaha continued cultivating two-strokes and twins for much longer, creating a distinct engine identity.\n\n## Racing: a rewarding obsession\n\nYamaha's competition record is staggering. In the premier class (500cc then MotoGP), the brand has won 17 rider titles and 14 constructor championships, with over 245 victories — the second-best record in history behind Honda.\n\nThe 1970s and 1980s were dominated by the YZR500 two-strokes, which carried Kenny Roberts (the first American world champion in 1978, 1979, and 1980), Eddie Lawson (three titles: 1984, 1986, 1988), and Wayne Rainey (three consecutive titles: 1990, 1991, 1992) to the top.\n\nIn 2002, MotoGP switched to four-strokes. Yamaha launched the YZR-M1 with an inline-four engine — an unusual choice against rivals' V4s and V5s. After a difficult start, signing Valentino Rossi in 2004 changed everything. \"The Doctor\" won four MotoGP titles with Yamaha (2004, 2005, 2008, 2009), followed by Jorge Lorenzo (2010, 2012, 2015) and Fabio Quartararo (2021). The key innovation: the crossplane crankshaft (crank pins offset at 90-degree intervals), developed on the M1 and later transferred to the production R1 in 2009.\n\nIn World Superbike, Yamaha has also shone with titles from Ben Spies (2009) and Toprak Razgatlioglu (2021), both on the YZF-R1. In total, Yamaha claims 39 world championships and over 210 victories at the Isle of Man TT.\n\n## Yamaha today: between crossplane and electrification\n\nYamaha is currently the world's second-largest motorcycle manufacturer, with factories across nine countries and 137 subsidiaries. The motorcycle lineup is organized around clearly identified families: the MT series (characterful roadsters), the R series (supersport), the Ténéré series (adventure), the Tracer series (sport-touring), and the XMAX/NMAX scooters.\n\nThe technological DNA rests on the \"crossplane\" philosophy: engine configurations that prioritize torque feel and rider connection over raw horsepower. The CP4 (R1/MT-10 inline-four), CP3 (MT-09/Tracer 9 triple), and CP2 (MT-07/Ténéré 700 twin) all share this approach.\n\nOn the electric front, Yamaha is developing Y-AMT technology (a clutchless automated manual transmission) and working on electric models, including the TY-E trials prototype. The company is also exploring hydrogen engines. In MotoGP, after Quartararo's 2021 title, Yamaha has been going through a tough period and is investing heavily to regain competitiveness, with reports suggesting a possible switch to a V4 engine.\n\n## In summary\n\nYamaha is the brand born from a piano that learned to roar. Accessible performance, refined design, a coherent lineup, and a competition record that rivals Honda's. If you're looking for a motorcycle with character, a distinctive sound, and genuine riding pleasure without breaking the bank, Yamaha is one of the best choices available. The dealer network is solid, reliability is strong, and every model carries a hint of racetrack DNA.","Iwata, Shizuoka, Japan (headquarters and main factory)\nHamakita, Shizuoka, Japan\nJakarta, Indonesia (PT Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing)\nChennai, India (India Yamaha Motor)\nSurajpur, India\nSamut Prakan, Thailand (Thai Yamaha Motor)\nVinh Phuc, Vietnam (Yamaha Motor Vietnam)\nManaus, Brazil\nSaint-Quentin, France (MBK / Yamaha Motor France Manufacturing)","Hamamatsu, Japan (first factory, inherited from Nippon Gakki)\nNewnan, Georgia, USA (ATV/SSV assembly, no longer produces motorcycles)\nBarcelona, Spain (former MBK-Yamaha plant)","Performance, character, and mechanical elegance.

Inspired by the German DKW RT 125 but built with the precision of a musical instrument manufacturer, this small 125cc two-stroke won races in its debut year. Its nickname \"Akatombo\" (Red Dragonfly) comes from its distinctive reddish-brown livery. It laid the foundation for the brand's racing DNA and proved that a newcomer could compete with established manufacturers from the start.\n\n## RD350/RD400 (1973)\n\nThe RD series represents the golden age of Yamaha's sporting two-strokes. Light, responsive, and affordable, the RD350 delivered sportbike performance in an accessible package that made it a favorite among young riders everywhere. It shaped entire generations of motorcyclists and remains one of the most sought-after collector bikes today. The \"RD\" designation was commonly interpreted as \"Race Developed,\" though Yamaha never officially confirmed this — in reality, the R indicated the reed valve induction system.\n\n## YZF-R1 (1998)\n\nThe motorcycle that redefined the superbike segment in the late 1990s. Designed by Kunihiko Miwa, it introduced the vertically stacked gearbox, enabling a more compact engine and optimized center of gravity. In 2009, the R1 became the first production sportbike to feature a crossplane crankshaft, derived directly from the YZR-M1 MotoGP machine. This unique engine delivers linear torque and a deep, V4-like exhaust note from an inline-four configuration.\n\n## MT-07 (2014)\n\nThe roadster that democratized riding pleasure for A2 license holders. Its CP2 twin with a 270-degree crankshaft (which replicates the firing pulses of a V-twin) delivers surprising engine character in a lightweight chassis at an accessible price point. A massive commercial success, the MT-07 became Europe's best-selling bike in its category and spawned the entire MT family (MT-03, MT-09, MT-10).\n\n## Ténéré 700 (2019)\n\nThe adventure bike that proved simplicity and effectiveness go hand in hand. Powered by the MT-07's CP2 engine in a chassis built for off-road capability, the Ténéré 700 inherits its name from the legendary XT600 Ténéré of the 1980s (a Paris-Dakar winner). Light, rugged, and versatile, it has become the benchmark in the mid-range adventure segment, embraced equally by globe-trotters and daily commuters.\n\n## YZR-M1 (2002–present)\n\nYamaha's MotoGP Grand Prix machine. Its inline-four engine with crossplane crankshaft, developed from 2004 onward, has carried Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo, and Fabio Quartararo to multiple world titles. The M1 demonstrated that an inline-four could beat rival V4s by focusing on rider feel rather than raw power output — a philosophy that defines Yamaha's engineering approach.","- Distinctive engine character through crossplane technology (CP2, CP3, CP4)\n- Excellent MotoGP-to-production technology transfer\n- Coherent and well-segmented lineup (MT, R, Ténéré, Tracer, XMAX)\n- Refined and recognizable design, often a step above the Japanese competition\n- Competitive value for money, especially on A2-friendly models (MT-07, R7)\n- Solid reliability with reasonable maintenance costs\n- Exceptional competition record (17 premier-class rider titles)","- Narrower lineup than Honda: limited presence in grand touring (no Gold Wing equivalent)\n- Electronics and rider aids sometimes lag behind European rivals on premium models\n- Dealer network less dense than Honda in some markets\n- MotoGP results in decline since 2022, competitiveness needs rebuilding\n- No large-displacement premium adventure bike to rival the BMW GS or Ducati Multistrada","Yamaha — History, Iconic Models & Honest Review","Discover Yamaha, born from a piano maker in 1955.

A punchy crossplane triple, featherweight chassis and aggressive pricing: the formula attracted over 100,000 buyers in Europe alone. For its tenth anniversary, Yamaha delivers the most comprehensive update yet, addressing long-standing criticisms while preserving the raw character that made the MT-09 a legend.\n\nThe MT-09's history is one of a motorcycle that has always divided opinion. Earlier versions were loved for their engine and criticised for their sometimes unruly road manners. Budget suspension, a vague front end and aggressive throttle response in Standard mode were recurring complaints. Yamaha has chipped away at these shortcomings generation after generation, and the 2024 model represents the culmination of that evolution.\n\n## What makes the CP3 engine so special?\n\nThe 890cc CP3 engine carries over with Euro 5+ compliance but identical output: 117.3 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 68.6 lb-ft of torque at 7,000 rpm. These numbers don't tell the full story. The CP3's magic lies in its crossplane crankshaft, a concept borrowed from Yamaha's YZF-R1 superbike. The irregular firing order gives the triple a unique personality: an organic, almost living surge of torque that feels fundamentally different from conventional inline engines.\n\nNew acoustic amplifier grilles on the tank pipe intake noise straight to the rider, making every acceleration feel more visceral. The soundtrack alone is worth the price of admission. The transmission has also been revised with additional dog teeth on the top four ratios for smoother engagement, while the assist and slipper clutch protects the rear wheel during aggressive downshifts.\n\n## How does it ride?\n\nThe 2024 model marks a deliberate shift from the MT-09's supermotard heritage toward a more conventional sporty naked stance. The handlebars sit lower (with two adjustable positions), the footpegs are higher and further back (also adjustable), and the new two-piece seat sits closer to the tank. The fuel tank has been lowered by 30mm and widened to maintain its 14-litre capacity, allowing better knee grip. The result is a more committed riding position that puts more weight on the front wheel and makes the bike feel more connected through corners.\n\nThe CF aluminium frame carries over, but geometry has been tweaked: 24.7-degree rake angle and 109mm trail. The fully adjustable 41mm KYB inverted fork features higher spring rates and recalibrated damping to suit the new Bridgestone Battlax S23 tyres. The rear shock is adjustable for preload and rebound. Yamaha's spin-forged aluminium wheels reduce unsprung mass, contributing to the bike's remarkable agility through direction changes.\n\nThe S23 tyres provide a good balance between road and track use, though several testers note reduced feedback in cold conditions. Something to keep in mind if you ride year-round.\n\nBraking sees the addition of a Brembo radial master cylinder at the front, significantly improving feel and modulation. The twin 298mm discs with four-piston callipers work alongside a 6-axis IMU-assisted ABS system that adjusts intervention based on lean angle.\n\n## What about the electronics?\n\nThis is where the 2024 MT-09 takes a major leap. A new 5-inch full-colour TFT display with four selectable themes replaces the old unit. It connects via Bluetooth to Yamaha's Y-Connect app for phone notifications and music, and supports Garmin StreetCross turn-by-turn navigation directly on the dash.\n\nYamaha Ride Control (YRC) allows independent adjustment of throttle response, traction control (four levels), slide control, anti-wheelie and engine braking across five modes (Sport, Street, Rain and two Custom). Adjustments can be made directly from the dashboard or via the smartphone app.\n\nThe third-generation quickshifter deserves special mention. It enables clutchless upshifts on a closed throttle and downshifts on an open throttle, essentially making it a fully seamless system from as low as 2,000 rpm and 10 mph. This makes city riding remarkably smooth, even in heavy traffic.\n\nStandard-fit cruise control is a welcome addition for motorway miles. The Back Slip Regulator (BSR) also joins the arsenal, finely managing engine braking to prevent rear wheel lockup during aggressive downshifts.\n\n## Who is it for?\n\nThe MT-09 targets riders who crave excitement without the bulk or expense of a supernaked. At 193 kg wet and with generous torque, it's nimble in urban traffic, while 117 bhp and sophisticated electronics make it credible on track. It excels as a daily commuter that transforms into a weekend weapon.\n\nThe refined electronics and multiple riding modes make it approachable for newly qualified riders, but those 117 horses still demand respect. Rain mode and traction control provide a safety net while you build confidence.\n\nNote that with 87.5 kW of power, the MT-09 exceeds the 70 kW threshold for A2 licence restriction in Europe. Yamaha does offer a factory-detuned 35 kW version in select European markets, separately homologated for A2 riders.\n\n## The bottom line\n\nThe 2024 MT-09 is the best version Yamaha has ever made. The CP3 engine remains the benchmark in its class, the electronics now match premium rivals, and the value proposition is unbeatable. At under 11,000 euros, you get a 117 bhp naked with a 6-axis IMU, bidirectional quickshifter, cruise control and connected TFT display. Weak points are few: a 14-litre tank that limits range for touring riders, zero wind protection and styling that continues to divide opinion. On the road, though, it's a unanimous crowd-pleaser.","- Exceptional CP3 engine: generous low-down torque, aggressive top-end rush, unique soundtrack enhanced by acoustic amplifier grilles\n- Outstanding power-to-weight ratio: 193 kg for 117 bhp, among the best in class\n- Comprehensive electronics: 6-axis IMU, customisable riding modes, bidirectional quickshifter, standard cruise control\n- Highly competitive pricing against rivals (Street Triple R, 990 Duke, Monster)\n- Revised 2024 riding position: sportier and adjustable (two-position bars, adjustable pegs)\n- Improved braking with Brembo radial master cylinder\n- Connected 5-inch TFT display with Garmin navigation","- 14-litre tank limits range to approximately 250 km\n- No wind protection whatsoever in standard trim\n- Front-end stability still questionable at higher speeds (headshake reported by some owners)\n- Limited pillion comfort (small, firm rear seat)\n- Bridgestone S23 tyres lack feedback in cold or wet conditions\n- Polarising styling, particularly the headlight design","2024 Yamaha MT-09: Specs, Price, Review | Moto-Académie","2024 Yamaha MT-09: 117 bhp, 193 kg, from €10,799.

Its 890cc CP3 triple delivers 117 bhp of pure excitement wrapped in a 193 kg chassis packed with R1-derived electronics. At under 11,000 euros, it remains the undisputed value king of the mid-size naked segment.","## What does the press say?\n\nThe motorcycle press is nearly unanimous: the 2024 MT-09 represents the most successful evolution since the model's creation. MCN crowned it Naked Bike of the Year 2024, praising the unique combination of engine character and everyday usability. This is a significant accolade given how competitive the sport-naked segment has become.\n\nBennetts BikeSocial awards an excellent 4.7 out of 5, highlighting how the cumulative changes in riding position, braking and electronics significantly transform the riding experience despite the engine and frame being fundamentally unchanged. The modest price increase of just a few hundred pounds despite added cruise control and the new TFT display was universally praised. BikeSocial also notes that on value alone, the MT-09 significantly undercuts the KTM 990 Duke and Ducati Monster SP.\n\nCycle World notes the deliberate pivot toward sport-naked behaviour and away from the hooligan character of earlier models, with a more committed riding position and sharper chassis response. The American publication highlights the third-generation quickshifter as one of the best systems they have tested in this price range.\n\nFrench publication Moto-Net.com devoted an extensive review to the new model and confirms the CP3 engine's qualities, while independently verifying Yamaha's consumption claims during a 220 km test ride. Their measured figure of 5.3 L/100 km aligns with the official data, a positive sign for Yamaha's transparency.\n\n### Points of disagreement\n\nFront-end stability remains a talking point. While the specialist British press considers the improvements significant compared to previous generations, French forums and some owners report a headshake phenomenon at higher speeds. This historic MT-09 issue, linked to frame flex and fork length, appears reduced but not entirely resolved. The addition of a steering damper remains a frequent request from sportier riders.\n\nMCN's long-term testers also mention a lack of confidence under braking on cold tyres with the standard Bridgestone S23 rubber. Their tester recommends switching to more all-weather rubber for year-round use.\n\nThe 14-litre fuel tank is also debated: MCN's long-term testers report thirsty real-world consumption in spirited riding, limiting range to around 220-250 km when making full use of the engine. Moto-Net.com obtained a more moderate 5.3 L/100 km during their test, broadly confirming Yamaha's official figures for mixed riding. The truth likely lies somewhere in between, depending on how enthusiastic you are with the throttle.","## What's the riding position like on the 2024 MT-09?\n\nThe riding position has been substantially revised compared to the previous generation. The handlebars are now lower and offer two height settings. The footpegs sit slightly higher and further back, and are also adjustable. The fuel tank, lowered by 30mm but widened to maintain its 14-litre capacity, allows better grip with the knees.\n\nThe new two-piece seat is slimmer than the infamous 'banana' perch that many riders disliked, making it easier to reach the ground. With an 825mm seat height, a rider of around 5'7\" can comfortably flat-foot. The comfortable height range sits between roughly 5'5\" and 6'3\".\n\nPillion comfort remains the weak point: the rear seat is small, elevated, and grab handles are minimal. For longer rides, the complete absence of a screen becomes a real issue, though Yamaha offers an optional flyscreen as a genuine accessory.","## Is the 2024 MT-09 reliable and affordable to maintain?\n\nThe CP3 platform has proven itself over more than a decade and enjoys an excellent reliability reputation. The engine is shared with the XSR900 and Tracer 9, ensuring extensive real-world feedback and good parts availability.\n\nService intervals are reasonable: oil changes every 10,000 km or 12 months, valve clearance checks at 40,000 km. The 525 chain requires regular lubrication (ideally every 1,000 km). A standard service costs between 200 and 350 euros at a dealer, depending on local rates.\n\nTwo recall campaigns have affected the 2024 MT-09.
