2025 Yamaha MT-09 Shift (Y-AMT)

Key Features:

• Engine: 888cc
• Y-AMT Overview: Switching between AT and MT: Y-AMT offers an MT that allows riders to dictate shifts by hand and also an AT that carries out gear changes automatically. The active shifting possible in the MT provides a more spirited and involved riding experience, while the AT leaves the work up to the electronics for easier, more laid-back riding that boosts overall comfort. In addition, two shift programs can be selected while in AT: D and D+. D mode is more for calmer riding on urban streets or highways, while D+ mode is intended for twisties where riders want to enjoy more responsive acceleration and deceleration. Having two modes allows the rider to select the kind of shifting they want for the riding environment or per their personal preference.
• Shift Levers: When MT is selected, shifting up or down is performed by using the shift levers located on the left handlebar. This lever ensure the rider can use them with precision while wearing gloves. The levers can also be used easily and naturally while maintaining a grip on the handlebars.

There are two points for input most of the time: a plus lever that controls upshifts and a minus lever that controls downshifts. However, when performing harder riding, the plus lever can be pulled to shift up and pushed to shift down with the index finger, which removes the need for the rider to take their thumb off the handlebar grip. Having both methods available offers riders the freedom to choose shifting that suits their preference.
