Ronaldskk. Posted Monday at 04:47 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:47 PM https://www.lexhaminsurance.co.uk/blog/top-10-new-motorcycles/ Famed for its CP3 890cc triple motor, the MT-09 has been hitting the streets in various forms since 2013, and in 2024 the Dark Side of Japan hyper-naked series gets an update. On the face of it, Yamaha hasn’t changed much past the headlight – the controversial cyclops look is out, a sleeker dual LED faceplate is in. But there is a bit more under the surface for 2024. Dive deeper and your inner hooligan will be ecstatic. For 2024 the MT-09 keeps its 6-axis IMU with rider aids, adds a Back Slip Regulator and third-gen Quickshifter, has uprated and adjustable suspension, even better Brembo brakes, acoustic amplifier grills on top of the tank, and you can tweak your ride via the TFT dash and Yamaha Ride Control – though the 5 inch TFT does stick out a bit… Though, it seems the price has taken quite a hike to match the new form, now priced at £10,100 in 2024 (the 2023 MT-09 launch price was £8999, the 2023 SP was £10,199, and in 2013 it launched at just under £7k!). It’s getting a bit pricier, but without a doubt it’ll continue selling very well. Honorary mention also goes to the XSR 900 GP, which is the sports bike variant using the same CP3 motor – it wasn’t the R9 that many were hoping to be unveiled for 2024, but it’ll do.
