YAMAHA MT-07 2025 UPDATE

POSTED: 25/10/2024

DAWN OF A NEW DARKNESS: THE NEW YAMAHA MT-07

CLASS DEFINING MT-07 GETS MORE TECH, MORE SPEC AND EVEN MORE STYLE

As the motorcycle which redefined the twin cylinder naked class upon its launch in 2014, the Yamaha MT-07 has been among Europe’s best-selling machines for over a decade.

Embracing the ‘Dark Side of Japan’ philosophy, the MT-07 has led the industry with its futuristic styling and a torque laden motor that has acquired legions of fans around the world. The edgy, sometimes radical, looks have given the MT series a cult following, inspiring a new generation of motorcyclists to take to two wheels and experience an exhilaration only those in the MT community understand.

For 2025 Yamaha again looks to be the category trendsetter, as it welcomes the newest member to the MT family with a fresh new look, an even higher specification and the option of a Y-AMT equipped version.

FBut for all its evolution, the 2025 MT-07 remains the torquey hooligan for which it has become notorious, albeit one with greater refinement, more technology and extra premium components.

Bold and guaranteed to put a smile on your face. The urban legend continues!

YCC-T AND YRC CUSTOMISABLE RIDING MODES DEBUT IN MT-07

Appearing on the CP2 platform for the first time, the 2025 MT-07 features the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle system which has previously been utilised on larger capacity models in the MT-series.

Adopting this ride-by-wire throttle technology allows the MT-07 to employ a whole suite of electronic rider aids, which enable customisation and aid enjoyment. The MT-07’s excellent throttle response now features three YRC (Yamaha Ride Control) settings which change the power characteristics to suit the rider’s preferences and road conditions. YCC-T also facilitates the standard switchable traction control, YAMT transmission and allows the fitment of Yamaha’s third generation up-anddown quickshifter as an accessory option on the standard version. Exclusive to the 2025 MT-07 Y-AMT, cruise control is also a standard feature, increasing comfort and reducing fatigue on highway riding.

The MT-07 comes preset with two factory YRC modes, Sport and Street, with a third Custom setting able to be defined by the user via the TFT dashboard or the free MyRide app.

The rider is able to choose from three power maps and two levels of traction control, as well as the ability to switch off intervention. Sport mode has been developed for more enthusiastic riding, such as on tracks or twisting roads. It is preset to offer the most responsive power map (PWR1) and a lower level of traction control (TCS1). Street mode, designed for everyday use, employs a softer delivery (PWR2) and the highest level of intervention (TCS2).

A third power setting (PWR3) gives the mildest delivery, suitable for wet weather and low grip conditions, and users can select any one of the three power deliveries and three traction control settings (including the ability to switch off intervention completely) for their custom preset.

For MT-07s equipped with Y-AMT, additional YRC settings further reflect the selected drive mode. When in manual (MT) setting, the MT-07 Y-AMT utilises the same modes as the manual version. Each of the two AT settings has its own YRC mode. When in D, the system delivers a balanced combination of throttle response, TCS and shifting to provide a good all-round setting for any conditions. In D+ mode the YRC delivers a different level of TCS intervention and holds on to each gear for longer – encouraging the rider to enjoy rev out the CP2 motor and unlock the liveliest levels of performance offered by this innovative way of shifting.

Fiveways Motorcycle Centre LTD  is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Fiveways Motorcycle Centre LTD to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

 

We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase. 

 

Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

 

All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
