Yamaha presents the MT-09 2026, the evolution of the naked that redefined the segment. The 890 cc CP3 three-cylinder remains the heart of the project, but it is now flanked by a six-axis inertial platform bringing lean-sensitive traction control, lift control and three customisable riding modes.
The design becomes sharper: a new LED headlight, redesigned side panels and a revised seat to improve comfort on longer rides. The 5-inch TFT dashboard integrates turn-by-turn navigation via smartphone.
It arrives in dealerships in autumn with three colour options, including the new Icon Performance. The price remains one of the model's strong points.
