Premium Member rowdy Posted January 18, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 18, 2016 Okay... This bike has a serious attitude, and I like it. I love the look of the Blue MT-10Yamaha MT-10 News Why can't left turners see us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 It's raucous for sure (blue looks good) but my FZ-07 is poison enough for me. I just wish the 07 came with cruise control. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator mjh937 Posted January 23, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2016 I saw the MT-10 at the Vancouver Motorcycle Show yesterday. They said it is coming to Canada in June as the FZ-10. No pricing yet and he did not know about the USA. It is a great looking bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caliesv Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'd say it's going to be as much as an R1. Yeah this bike is what got me interested in naked bikes. My wife even liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted January 23, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2016 It has the R1S engine. Without fairings I would guess $1,000 less than the 1S. I was surprised how affordable bikes are in Canada when you convert to US$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caliesv Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Yup ☺. That thing is going to be a beast. How much are the R1s there? US pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted January 23, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2016 The R1S is C$16,699. That is less than US$12,000! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caliesv Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The R1S is C$16,699. That is less than US$12,000! GEZUS. lol, well, that's dope for yall ☺ How much was your fz07? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted January 23, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2016 I live in the US, so I bought it here. I am just south of the border. If I had realized how much cheaper they are there I would have looked into importing one. The FZ-07 MSRP is C$7299. That is about US$5200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenlord Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I would like to point out that they will be going up in price probably next year if our dollar remains in the dumps. When I bought mine the Canadian dollar was worth 90 cents US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator jeffkisthename Posted January 30, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 30, 2016 I really love the new R1, but this MT-10 looks like a way better choice to ride everyday, but something like this is more of a replacement than an addition...

I have an r1, it's definitely a fun bike, but not an everyday commuter for sure. I'm really enjoying the fz07 way more on my way to work and back. The r1 will be the weekend (or what ever) bike now. ☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted January 30, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 30, 2016 The Canadian Dollar might be low compared to the US one, but it's not like Canadians get more of them just because of the lower value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantheraleo Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I like everything about that bike except the tail. The FZ-07 has one of the sweetest tail sections. Sadly, it looks like the MT-10 favors the FZ-09's unfortunate rear... O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish beasts, And men have lost their reason. Bear with me.

Light, rear body work, etc. I think the plate holders are virtually identical on the 07 & 09. O judgment! Thou art fled to brutish beasts, And men have lost their reason. Bear with me.
