Electronics

• ADVANCED SIX-AXIS IMU: The MT-09 features an advanced six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that matches the base performance of proven IMU in the YZF-R1 Superbike. Data collected from the IMU and wheel speed sensors enable a high-tech suite of rider aids including a four-mode Traction Control System (TCS), Slide Control System (SCS), front wheel Lift Control System (LIF) and a two-mode Brake Control System. Each of these systems can be turned off and Traction Control, Slide Control and Lift Control can have their levels of intervention adjusted to preference. With its best-in-class electronic control technology, the MT-09 gives you the ultimate versatility in varying weather and surface conditions.
• LEAN ANGLE-SENSITIVE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM: The Traction Control System (TCS) detects the difference in speed between the front and rear wheels and helps to efficiently extract drive force from the rear tire during acceleration. The TCS on the MT-09 uses this data along with lean angle from the IMU to adjust the degree of intervention by the TCS. As the lean angle increases, so does the amount of TCS intervention. Four levels of Traction Control are available (1 = little intervention; 2 = moderate intervention; 3 = strong intervention) and the system can also be turned off.
• MOTOGP®-DEVELOPED SLIDE CONTROL SYSTEM (SCS): The MT-09 features an advanced Slide Control System (SCS) just like the one on the acclaimed YZF-R1. When the IMU detects that a sideward slide is occurring at the rear tire, the SCS responds by adjusting the power output to help the rider focus on riding. Three degrees of intervention can be selected or the system can be turned off.
• LIFT CONTROL SYSTEM (LIF): The LIFt Control System (LIF) smooths the machine's behavior during starts and acceleration. When the IMU detects front-wheel lift, the system adjusts the engine's output to compensate and assist the rider. On the MT-09, the system settings are focused on providing smooth behavior once the intervention ceases. The LIFt system’s intervention is set up to work together with the other rider aids, and the level of intervention can be chosen manually by the rider or turned off.
• BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM (BC) WITH ABS: With the Brake Control System (BC), data for the front and rear wheel speed as well as data from the IMU is compiled and calculated in real-time in the hydraulic unit assembly (including the ABS control unit) to independently control and modulate the front and rear brake pressure. The system has two settings, ON enables lean-sensitive brake control, while OFF provides standard front and rear wheel ABS.
• BACK SLIP REGULATOR (BSR): A Back Slip Regulator (BSR) reduces rear wheel lock up under engine braking by controlling the level of torque supplied to the wheel. This system shines in low-grip situations or other scenarios when it is difficult for the slipper clutch to perform.
• CUSTOMIZABLE YRC RIDE MODES: Owners can customize their riding experience via Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) settings, which allow the selection of engine power characteristics and electronic intervention levels to suit conditions or rider preference. For quick, easy selections, three integrated riding modes are programmed with factory settings to suit different situations: SPORT, STREET and RAIN. Additionally, riders can create two custom programs with tailored settings to suit exact preferences. YRC settings can be customized either directly within the dashboard menu or on a smartphone via the Y-Connect app.
• THIRD-GENERATION QUICKSHIFTER: The 2024 MT-09 is equipped with Yamaha's third-generation Quick Shift System (QSS), now enabling quick, clutchless upshifts and downshifts under both acceleration and deceleration. This system makes full-on acceleration more exciting and downshifting faster and smoother with less chassis disruption when changing gears. When a sensor on the shift rod detects movement in the gearshift pedal, adjustments are made in the engine output according to ECU calculations to instantly cancel out the drive torque of the engaged gear to promote swifter shifting of gears.
• RIDE-BY-WIRE YCC-T THROTTLE SYSTEM WITH APSG: Along with the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) which electronically governs the throttle valves, the MT-09 features an Accelerator Position Sensor Grip (ASPG) ride-by-wire unit that reduces weight while providing excellent throttle feel at the same time. With the APSG, the degree of throttle opening is detected by a sensor and magnet and reflected with signals to the throttle valve motor. For good operational feel, the APSG is comprised of a spring, slider and gear and produces varying degrees of friction (resistance) to recreate a natural throttle feel during use. The construction of the APSG is the same as the one on the YZF-R1/R1M, but has model-specific settings for the degree of friction and throttle opening.
• FIVE-INCH FULL-COLOR TFT DISPLAY WITH UPDATED SWITCHGEAR: A five-inch full-color TFT display provides the rider with the option of four different themes to suit specific riding situations or individual preference. The display is navigated through integrated handlebar switches. Button shape and feel have been extensively refined to provide intuitive operation in a compact, easy-to-use solution.
• SMARTPHONE CONNECTIVITY: Riders can now link their smartphone to the TFT display via Yamaha's free Y-Connect app to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music (through use of an aftermarket Bluetooth® headset, not provided). Additionally, full turn-by-turn navigation is available through the Garmin® StreetCross app to make each journey easier.

Engine

• POWERFUL 890CC LIQUID-COOLED THREE-CYLINDER DOHC FUEL-INJECTED ENGINE: The MT-09 features the renowned 890cc liquid-cooled CP3 engine.
