MASTER OF DARKNESS

Featuring exclusive special edition coloring, premium KYB® and Öhlins® suspension, and top-shelf Brembo® brakes, experience the class-dominating middleweight master born from the Darkness.

Features may include:

Next-Generation Design

Aggressive next-generation styling takes the Hyper Naked look to a new level with sharper, more defined lines and minimal bodywork. A bi-functional LED headlamp is shrouded in a cover, creating a compact and unified relationship with the fuel tank and tail section. SP specification raises the bar even further with distinctive SP colorway, polished aluminum swingarm, premium suspension, Brembo® brakes, additional electronics and a smart key for an unmatched Hyper Naked experience.

Powerful 890cc Three-Cylinder Engine

Yamaha's renowned 890cc liquid-cooled CP3 engine is light, powerful and provides a thrilling wave of torque from low rpms. A combination of carefully tuned induction sound and distinctive crossplane triple exhaust note provides a resonance which only heightens the feeling of acceleration. Throttle valves are governed by the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) system enabling finer actuation and precise control.

Lightweight CF Die-Cast Aluminum Frame

The MT-09 SP features an advanced, lightweight aluminum frame refined to showcase the MT's signature agility. To ensure both straight-line stability and handling performance, the balance of longitudinal, lateral and torsional rigidity are all carefully considered and finely tuned. The frame is manufactured using Yamaha's groundbreaking controlled fill (CF) die casting technology which contributes to its light weight.

High-Spec SP Suspension

Premium SP-exclusive suspension brings Supersport-level handling and precision to the Hyper Naked class. The 41mm DLC coated KYB® forks and Öhlins® rear shock feature a higher spring rate offering outstanding stability during more spirited riding. Set-up can be fine tuned to suit a variety of different riding situations with the forks fully adjustable for preload, rebound, high- and low-speed compression damping, while the fully adjustable Öhlins® shock is equipped with a remote preload adjuster to enable quick and easy changes.

Brembo® Stylema Calipers & Radial Master Cylinder

The MT-09 SP boasts premium-spec Brembo® Stylema monoblock brake calipers paired with a Brembo® radial master cylinder and large 298mm dual front discs for the ultimate in stopping power and finger-tip control.
