The 2026 Yamaha MT-10 SP is the top-tier hyper naked built for riders who want superbike-level performance in a stripped-down, aggressive package. Pulling DNA straight from the R1, this machine delivers raw power, advanced electronics, and premium components that make every ride feel dialed in and ready to rip.

At the heart of the MT-10 SP is a 998cc CP4 crossplane inline-four engine, designed to deliver strong, torque-rich power across the entire rev range. It’s smooth when you want it to be, but when you get into it, the bike comes alive with a hard pull and a sound that sets it apart from anything else in its class. 

What really separates the SP from the rest is the suspension. Equipped with semi-active Öhlins electronic suspension, this bike constantly adapts to the road and your riding style, giving you a planted, controlled feel whether you’re pushing hard or cruising. 

Handling is sharp, responsive, and confidence-inspiring thanks to the lightweight aluminum frame and aggressive geometry. Pair that with a full suite of rider aids driven by a six-axis IMU—traction control, slide control, lift control, engine braking management—and you get a bike that’s as smart as it is powerful. 

The MT-10 SP brings everything together with aggressive styling, premium finishes, and a ride experience that feels more like a streetfighter superbike than a traditional naked bike. It’s built for riders who want top-level performance without compromise.
