The 2025 Yamaha MT-09 is expected to be priced at around Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. This would put it on par with the Triumph Street Triple 765 R, above the Kawasaki Z900, but cheaper than the Ducati Monster or BMW F900 R.

Yamaha MT-09 Variants
Globally, the MT-09 is offered in multiple variants including the standard MT-09, the higher-spec MT-09 SP, and the recently introduced MT-09 Y-AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) variant. However, Yamaha only showcased the standard MT-09 at Bharat Mobility Global Auto Expo 2025 - with no confirmation yet about the SP or Y-AMT variants being launched.

The Yamaha MT-09 gets a typical streetfighter design language, with styling that emphasizes its aggressive character. It has a compact dual-LED projector headlamp setup with a sharp ‘robotic’ look as the brand calls it.

The Yamaha MT-09 is built on an aluminium frame. The suspension consists of fully-adjustable KYB parts at both ends: a 41mm inverted fork and monoshock. The higher-spec SP variant gets an Ohlins fully-adjustable monoshock. Braking is handled by dual 298mm front disc brakes with radially mounted Brembo calipers and a 245mm rear disc brake. The MT-09 rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, wrapped in a 120-section front and an 180-section rear tubeless tyres.

In terms of rider aids, the MT-09 offers lean-sensitive traction control, wheelie control, lean-sensitive ABS, cruise control, and a bidirectional quickshifter. Additional features include self-cancelling indicators and Emergency Stop Signal (ESS). The Y-AMT variant, which features an Automated Manual Transmission, includes a handlebar-mounted gear-shift switch, allowing riders to shift without a clutch lever. It also gets 5 ride modes: Street, Sport, and Rain, and 2 customisable ones.
Yamaha MT-09 Competition
