Overview
The Yamaha MT 09 is a naked motorcycle in production from 2014 through 2026. For 2026, it has an 890 cm³ liquid-cooled inline three-cylinder four-stroke engine producing 117 hp (88 kW) and 93 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm; wet weight is 193 kg.
Its 825 mm seat height can make putting both feet down harder for shorter riders, while the 193 kg wet weight is something to manage during parking and slow-speed maneuvers. The engine’s peak torque arrives at 7,000 rpm, and the assist and slipper clutch helps calm the rear wheel during hard downshifts. Fuel consumption is 4.90 liters/100 km, with a calculated full-tank range of about 286 km from the 14-liter tank; both ends have ABS, and the suspension is adjustable for preload, with compression and rebound adjustment at the front.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Adjustable suspension
The front fork adjusts for preload, compression, and rebound, while the rear shock adjusts for preload and rebound damping.
ABS at both wheels
ABS-equipped disc brakes at the front and rear help prevent wheel lock during hard braking.
Assist and slipper clutch
The slipper function helps calm the rear wheel during hard downshifts, while the assist function reduces clutch effort.
Things to consider
Tall seat
At 825 mm, the seat may make it difficult for shorter riders to get both feet firmly on the ground.
Chain final drive
The chain needs regular cleaning and adjustment.
Limited tank range
The 14-liter tank gives a calculated range of about 286 km, so longer rides may require fuel stops.

How to measure
Stand barefoot with your back to a wall. Hold a book firmly between your legs, then measure from the floor to the top edge of the book.
Estimated ground reach
Balls of both feet likely down
You should reach on both sides, but probably not with your heels fully down.
