2024 Yamaha MT-09 quick review - Standard, SP and Y-AMT ridden | Autocar India

Greeting from Japan where we've come to ride all three variants of the Yamaha MT-09, including the high spec SP and the unique automatic shifting Y-AMT. An extremely limited time to shoot means that this is a short video, but Rishaad Mody tells you what to expect before Yamaha launches the MT-09 in India next year.

This bike is a dream machine for someone like me BUT following the track record of Yamaha pricing their CBUs, i know this bike would be priced so ridiculously high that many other capable motorcycles (ones even above its segment) would seem much more VFM.

Thank you for the 4K videos! We asked for it and you delivered so it calls for an appreciation. Watching experience on a 4K TV panel is now really enhanced! Commenting on multiple videos so that my appreciation catches your eye 😅

Honestly, doesn't a quickshifter with an autoblipper completely negate the necessity for an AMT? feel + convenience. best of both worlds!

Would never like to let go of the engagement of shifting gears by myself on my bike. The clutch pull, throttle blip, rev matching, going up and down the gear as and when I wish accompanied by the rise and fall of the changing engine note is really a cherished experience for me.

Any update on the Y-AMT when its coming to India?

[pelanebaat]

I have been waiting for this amt for years now. Thank you

[vasanth]

Expecting this technology for years. Great yamaha.

I love street triple but this might be the only bike that i might prefer over that one. What an amazing bike this one is definitely one of my dream bikes.

[devathinnithin]

Hope they will launch the at gearbox bikes in budget, I want to purchase a bike but unable to learn 😢😢

[yaruishangjagoi]

This bike sounds brutal when an aftermarket exhaust is installed.. 🔥

[Prodigy]

What about MT-07? Are they going to launch in India?

[desidudev]

Please advice Yamaha not to bring their products to India unless they can manage CKD units. There is no point in blaming the Indian market if they can’t devise strategies to compete with Kawasaki India

[nemesiszz]

Reminds me of TVS jive non clutch bike 😅

[ganpatguru]

Wow, the frame is completely exposed, and there's no panel even near the seat. This is truly a naked bike

[keeganpaes]

It's a Yamaha that has to sound good.

[TheLazyWandererMys]

How different does it feel to ride compared to the Honda DCT gearbox? Does the use of AMT really matter when the bike is so expensive?

[prasanthsai]

But I like both the bikes mt 09 and street triple 😊

[TechSavage]

It Would be Expensive in India as it will be CBU

[anandsummanwar]

Regarding the AMT version I agree that keeping it in manual mode makes the most sense to avoid unexpected gear changes. I have tried several Honda bikes with DCT and felt the same with those too. Does Yamaha's solution work smoothly when starting from stand still? And if one uses manual mode does it still shift down to avoid stalling the engine if you accidently leave it in a higher gear and slow down?
