2023 Yamaha MT-07

Chassis / Suspension

• ASSERTIVE RIDING POSITION: The MT-07 features a wide, tapered handlebar for an improved feeling of control and comfort for a range of rider sizes.
• COMPACT FRAME DESIGN: The MT-07's high-strength steel frame provides an optimized balance of rigidity for nimble, agile handling. Using the engine as a stressed member of the chassis allows for a lighter, more compact main frame design, contributing to the bike's low wet weight of only 406 pounds.
• LIGHTWEIGHT WHEELS: Lightweight 10-spoke cast aluminum wheels reduce unsprung weight for great handling and suspension performance. The Michelin Road 5 tires offer excellent grip and agility with 120/70ZR17 front and 180/55ZR17 rear sizes.
• EXCEPTIONAL STOPPING POWER: For excellent stopping power, control and feel while braking, the MT-07 features 298mm front brake discs with four-piston calipers and a 245mm rear disc. ABS comes standard to boost rider confidence and prevent wheel lock-ups in reduced traction conditions.
• KYB® FRONT FORK: The MT-07's front suspension features a 41mm KYB® fork with 5.1 inches of travel. With carefully selected spring rates and damping settings, the suspension has a refined feel and responsively performs across a wide range of riding styles.
• ADJUSTABLE KYB® REAR SHOCK: The MT-07 features a link-type KYB® rear shock adjustable for both rebound damping and spring preload. With 5.1 inches of rear travel, the shock is positioned below the seat with an almost horizontal alignment to help make the chassis even more compact.
• SPORTY CHASSIS DIMENSIONS: Working with the characteristics of the compact twin-cylinder engine, the wheelbase, seat height, fuel tank width, rake and other dimensions achieve a sporty, light and neutral handling character.

Engine

• ADVANCED TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: The MT-07 features the compact 689cc liquid-cooled, inline twin cylinder, DOHC CP2 engine with fuel injection. The fun and characterful CP2 engine provides both outstanding low- to mid-range torque and strong high-rpm pulling power. Fuel injection settings are optimized for seamless, linear throttle response characteristics, even when the throttle is slightly open at low rpm.
• CROSSPLANE CRANKSHAFT CONCEPT: The two-cylinder engine features Yamaha’s Crossplane Crankshaft Concept 270-degree crank that provides linear torque development in response to the rider’s throttle input. Offering excellent rider-machine communication, the CP2 engine is also light, slim and compact.
• COMPACT STACKED TRANSMISSION: The six-speed transmission “stacks” the input/output shafts in a triangular layout. Keeping the overall engine size shorter from front-to-back, the placement in the frame is optimized for outstanding weight balance. The transmission ratios bring out the best of the low- to mid-speed torque with excellent response characteristics to reduce the need for frequent shifts.
• MIDSHIP EXHAUST SYSTEM: By placing the muffler low in the frame and as close to the center of the machine as possible, the bike's mass is centralized for improved all around handling.
• OFFSET CYLINDER BLOCK: The CP2 engine shifts its cylinder bores slightly forward, towards the exhaust side which reduces piston-to-cylinder wall friction, resulting in more power and improved fuel economy.
• REFINED FUEL INJECTION: From the open roads to the urban sprawl, refined electronic fuel injection settings deliver a smooth throttle response for enhanced riding enjoyment. The system delivers outstanding torque in the low- and mid-rpm range, exciting acceleration in the upper rpm range, along with linear and seamless throttle response across the entire rev range.

New for 2023

• FULL-COLOR 5-INCH TFT DISPLAY: For the 2023 MT-07 is the installation of a 5-inch full-color TFT display that provides a choice of two different screen modes. The “Street” mode is a more modern layout with a bar-type tachometer, digital speedo and gear selection readouts. The “Touring” mode features a more conventional circular analog-style tachometer on the right of the screen and digital speedometer on the left.
• YAMAHA Y-CONNECT SMARTPHONE CONNECTIVITY: The MT-07 now features Yamaha Motorcycle Connect (Y-Connect) smartphone connectivity which works in conjunction with the free-of-charge Y-Connect app (available for iOS and Android) to enable a direct connection between motorcycle and smartphone. Y-Connect capability for the MT-07 includes the ability to view incoming call, email and message notifications, along with time, phone battery level, connection status and weather information on the TFT display. Additional useful functions include monitoring and notifying the rider or other contact of motorcycle technical issues, and also the ability to track and record key motorcycle ride data within the app, including distance covered, fuel consumption, acceleration, top speed, lean angle and much more.
• PRE-WIRED FOR QUICK SHIFT ACCESSORIZATION: To facilitate the fitment of a quickshifter, the MT-07 is pre-wired with the necessary electronics for installation, making it quick and easy to install Yamaha’s Quick Shift System available through the Yamaha Genuine Accessory catalog.

Other Features

• NEXT-GENERATION DESIGN: The MT-07's aggressive look further enhances its distinctive appeal. Bold colors and graphics integrate with the minimalist stripped-back design and structural elements to emphasize pure Hyper Naked character. With a silhouette that is synonymous with the MT Series' signature statement of torque and power, the MT-07 showcases a tight, compact and powerful appearance.
• LED PROJECTOR LIGHTING: Full LED lighting for the position lights, headlight and both front and rear turn signals exhibit clear and powerful illumination with a modern design.
• ACCESSORIES: Accessorize your MT-07 with a front cowl, fly screen, fender eliminator and many more options!
