MT-01 SP - Tame the beast

Four years ago the original Yamaha MT-01 introduced 21st century bikers to a whole new big-torque riding experience. With its massive 1,670cc V-twin engine, aluminium sports chassis and unrivalled power pulses, this radical cult bike has created a new Torque Sports category.

For 2009 Yamaha have taken this unique and exciting concept one step further with the introduction of the outstanding new MT-01 SP. Equipped with state-of-the-art Ohlins front and rear suspension systems and Pirelli Diablo Rosso tyres, the high-specification SP model delivers enhanced handling and road holding qualities, allowing the rider to experience maximum enjoyment from the engine’s huge low-rpm torque delivery. And with its exclusive new red and white colour scheme, two-tone seat and gold wheels, the MT-01 SP feels special in every sense.
