Akkati Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Looks better in the metallic! :-) Yamaha has really outdone themselves and re-captured the market with their Master of Torque series! Thumbs up to Yamaha and their team. Enjoy speed but ride safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Is the MT-10 going to be a "torque monster" being that it's an inline four? Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member jake Posted November 20, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted November 20, 2015 One concern I have is how tall are the gears going to be, is it going to be the same as the R1? Top speed is fun but I wonder how usable it will really be. Don't get me wrong I'm drooling over this bike its like a naked R1. 2015 FZ-07 2003 2014 GSXR 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikergeek Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hopefully this is a prototype and the final version comes out with a nicer front end....something that isn't 3 pieces by the look of it in the videos. The rest is beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucaro_FZ07 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I guess they will do like BMW did with the S1000R, detune the engine somewhow and improve the torque. And most likely to be more budget friendly they will use as base the Yamaha R1S engine and not the R1/R1M engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the most anemic liter bike I've ever ridden. Suzuki claimed to have done the same treatment to give it more mid-range grunt, but it felt like all they did was remove all the top end so that the RPMs didn't explode after 7k like they normally do. Kind of a placebo effect in a sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikergeek Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Finally figured out why the front end was bothering me so much.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucaro_FZ07 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Hopefully it won't be that way @fooschnickens as this engine is modern compared to the one detuned by Suzuki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fooschnickens Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 It's like the dev team got partway through assembling an R6 and went "OH MAN, LET'S PUT A LITER IN IT!!!!" and then left everything else off the bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
