MT-09 Y-AMT

MY25 ride away price $17,749.00 including GST.

Over the last decade, the MT-09 has cemented its status as a Yamaha icon and now, there is a whole new dimension to the Dark Side of Japan. All the qualities which make the MT-09 a leader in its class have been elevated to the next level with the introduction of Y-AMT. Feel more at one with the MT-09 than ever before, focus on the adrenaline-inducing acceleration and super-precise handling with gear changes distilled to a sporty and slick finger-operated shift (MT) or fully automatic transmission (AT).

MT offers quicker and more consistent, clutchless gear changes at your fingertips via an intuitive and tactile see-saw switch, enabling the MT-09’s true performance to be unleashed at its full sporty potential. While AT offers simplified shifting with a fully automatic transmission with two options to suit different riding scenarios.

  • While the 2024 MT-09 Y-AMT premieres the latest Y-AMT technology, the new model retains all that has made the MT-09 a benchmark in the sporting naked class. Embodying the same Dark Side of Japan philosophy and enhancing the MT-09’s sensational performance, the MT-09 Y-AMT provides a thrilling ride from start to finish – giving riders a highly distilled riding experience and an even greater connection with their motorcycle.

    Powered by the soulful 890cc CP3 three-cylinder crossplane-concept engine, the MT-09 Y-AMT delivers a lively 87.5kW at 10,000rpm and the riding experience is enhanced by the aural tuning of the induction system, with mesh vents integrated into the fuel tank to allow the rider to hear the mighty induction roar at high rpm.

    The minimalist design language of the MT-09 Y-AMT expresses the motorcycle’s ‘ready for action’ attitude and showcases the lightweight CF aluminium die cast frame, which is ideal for sporty riding. The chassis is the latest development of Yamaha’s iconic Deltabox frame and has been tuned to provide a high level of chassis stiffness, giving excellent rider feedback and outstanding agility.

    The 41mm front forks are fully adjustable and have been developed suit a wide range of riding styles. Rear suspension is also adjustable, with multiple settings, while the MT-09 Y-AMT’s braking system features a Brembo radial master cylinder, which provides linear pressure to the four-pot front calipers – ensuring strong and progressive stopping power. To complement the next-level technology synonymous with this class leading machine, the MT-09 Y-AMT comes with a Smart Key System, allowing the rider to start the bike at the touch of a button providing the key is on their person. The system also features a lock/unlock function for the fuel tank cap. The dynamic nature of Yamaha’s Y-AMT technology has been made possible by the ‘ride-by-wire’ Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) system and a six-axis IMU, which controls a comprehensive electronics suite derived from the R1. This class-leading electronics package includes lean-sensitive, three-level traction control (TCS), Slide Control System (SCS), Front Wheel Lift Control System (LIF), Brake Control System (BC) and Back Slip Regulator (BSR). Customisable ride modes allow the rider to further tailor the performance of their machine, with the full colour TFT dashboard presenting all the information in a clear format, alongside smartphone connectivity and navigation functionality.

Key Features

  • 889CC CP3 ENGINE

    The newly developed 890cc liquid-cooled 3-cylinder engine is lighter, quicker and more powerful, with more torque at lower rpm. The intake and twin-tail exhaust produced a beautiful sound that enhances the feeling of acceleration. The fuel injectors five increased efficiency, while optimised gear ratios and a refined A&S clutch match the higher output of the CP3 engine.

  • DIE-CAST ALUMINIUM DELTABOX

    Like the tined intake, the titanium exhaust has been designed to emit a deep and distinctive sound that emphasises the bike’s uneven firing sequence. At lower engine speeds the exhaust sound is dominant, while the tuned intake roar takes over from mid to high revs to create a wall of sound that heightens the thrilling acceleration and torque rich performance of the more powerful engine.

  • 5IN TFT DISPLAY WITH CONNECTIVITY

    Full colour 5-inch TFT instruments provide an option of four different themes to suit your individual requirements and riding situation, which you can scroll through using the all-new handlebar switches. You can also link your smartphone to the new TFT screen via the free Y-Connect all to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music*.

  • ACOUSTIC AMPLIFER GRILLES

    The grin-inducing road of the MT-09 is one of the most defining characteristics, evoking a sense o pure adrenaline with every twit o the throttle. The MT-09 Y-AMT features specifically designed air-intake ducts which accentuate the high frequency sounds, which are then emphasised, especially at the high speed, by an acoustic amplifier grille on the top of the fuel tank, delivering the CP3’s vibrate note directly to you.
