A new era of riding with Y-AMT and Cruise Control

Revolutionising the way we ride, Y-AMT creates a whole new riding experience – and MT-07 can be equipped with Y-AMT to experience this new dimension. Choose between manual shifting via a finger-operated see-saw switch, or opt for a fully automatic transmission when you need to. Y-AMT works in perfect harmony with Yamaha Ride Control (YRC)’s electronic features, while cruise control further reduces effort for relaxed highway riding. *Cruise Control only available on the MT-07 Y-AMT

All-new minimalist styling

All-new minimalist styling

MT-07 gets a new stripped-back look with a distinctive ‘face’ from the minimalist LED headlight unit, straight from the Dark Side of Japan. With engineering and styling in perfect harmony, nothing is added to the MT-07 unless it truly enhances the riding experience. The result is a motorcycle which connects to its rider in a way few others can match.

Electronic throttle, YRC riding modes and switchable TCS

Electronic throttle, YRC riding modes and switchable TCS

YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) facilitates a new generation of electronic aids and contributes to an even more linear power delivery to create a greater connection between rider and machine. Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) allows you to choose between two throttle maps and switchable traction control, with the option of a customisable YRC mode to match your own preferences.

Acoustic amplifying technology

Acoustic amplifying technology

Contributing to the visceral connection between rider and machine, the MT-07 features a sound amplification system which harnesses the bike's induction roar, enhancing and channeling it to the rider to increase the grin-inducing feeling offered by the MT's famous torque.

Highly responsive adjustable suspension

Highly responsive adjustable suspension

New 41mm 'upside down' forks offer high levels of control and an intuitive level of connection with the front tyre, all while giving a modern look to the MT-07. The highly responsive forks are matched to a linked-type rear shock absorber, which is adjustable for both preload and rebound damping, creating a sporting ride every time.
