KEY FEATURES
New For 2024
Aggressive New Hyper Naked Styling
Aggressive next-generation styling takes the Hyper Naked look to a new level with sharper, more defined lines and minimal bodywork. A new bi-functional LED headlamp is now shrouded in a cover, creating a more compact and unified relationship with the redesigned fuel tank and tail section. The new fuel tank also sits 30mm lower for a more forward-leaning stance while maintaining the edgy street aesthetic synonymous with the MT name.
More Engaged Ergonomics
Already renowned for its engaging riding experience, ergonomics on the new 2024 MT-09 are further enhanced allowing the rider to feel more at one with the machine. In order to achieve this, handlebar position is now lower and features two customizable settings. Newly designed footrests sit slightly more rearward and are also adjustable. Combined with the lower fuel tank design, the riding position is more dedicated and steering angle is 4 degrees greater for improved low-speed maneuverability. Additionally, the new two-part seat design is slimmer for better freedom of movement and an easier reach to the ground.
New Five-Inch Full-Color TFT Display with Updated Switchgear
A new five-inch full-color TFT display provides the rider with the option of four different themes to suit specific riding situations or individual preference. The new display is navigated through all-new integrated handlebar switches. Button shape and feel have been extensively refined to provide intuitive operation in a compact, easy-to-use solution.
New Smartphone Connectivity
Riders can now link their smartphone to the new TFT display via Yamaha's free Y-Connect app to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music (through use of an aftermarket Bluetooth® headset, not provided). Additionally, full turn-by-turn navigation is available through the Garmin® StreetCross app to make each journey easier.
New Back Slip Regulator
A new Back Slip Regulator (BSR) reduces rear wheel lock up under engine braking by controlling the level of torque supplied to the wheel. This system shines in low-grip situations or other scenarios when it is difficult for the slipper clutch to perform.
New Customizable YRC Ride Modes
Owners can customize their riding experience via new Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) settings, which allow the selection of engine power characteristics and electronic intervention levels to suit conditions or rider preference. For quick, easy selections, three integrated riding modes are programmed with factory settings to suit different situations: SPORT, STREET and RAIN. Additionally, riders can create two custom programs with tailored settings to suit exact preferences. YRC settings can be customized either directly within the dashboard menu or on a smartphone via the Y-Connect app.
Acoustic Amplifier Grilles for Enhanced Intake Sound
The distinctive roar of the MT-09's crossplane Triple powerplant is one of its most defining characteristics. The 2024 MT-09 features a new two-duct intake design with Acoustic Amplifier Grilles located on top of the fuel tank to accentuate high frequency induction sounds, delivering the CP3’s thrilling note directly to the rider for an enhanced sensation of torque and acceleration.
New Brembo Radial Master Cylinder
Stopping power is enhanced by a new Brembo radial master cylinder which produces a linear supply of pressure to the four-piston calipers. Paired with large 298mm dual front discs, the MT-09 offers outstanding braking performance with finger-tip control.
New Third-Generation Quickshifter
The 2024 MT-09 is equipped with Yamaha's new third-generation Quick Shift System (QSS), now enabling quick, clutchless upshifts and downshifts under both acceleration and deceleration. The system has two settings. Setting 1 enables shifting up while accelerating and shifting down when decelerating. Setting 2 expands functionality across a wider range of situations by permitting downshifts while accelerating and upshifts when decelerating. This advanced system makes full-on acceleration more exciting and downshifting faster and smoother with less chassis disruption when changing gears.
Revised Suspension & Latest Generation Tires
Higher spring rates and updated damping characteristics are tuned to accommodate a wider range of speeds and to match new standard fitment Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S23 tires. Shock linkage settings are also revised, optimizing chassis attitude and weight distribution when cornering.
New Cruise Control & Turn Signal Functions
The new cruise control system can be set when riding 25 mph or more in third gear or higher. After speed is set, it can be increased or decreased in increments of 1 mph with a button push, and can be disengaged by using the cruise cancel button, the cruise off button, brake, clutch, shifting gears or moving the throttle past the fully closed position. Intuitive new turn signal functions further enhance the riding experience. A soft click of the indicator switch will flash the turn signals three times, while a full click will flash continuously. Turn signals will also self-cancel after 15 seconds and once the bike has travelled for more than 500 feet.
