Yamaha MT-09 850 STREET RALLY 2014

Announced as a warning shot, the MT-09 immediately conquered many people with its 3 cylinders. Even before having put its wheels on the tarmac, the biker community was thrilled to see a Japanese manufacturer offering (again) a 3-legged engine.

During his recent test, Oli the Belgian did not hide how much this block had excited him..

The MT-09 loves to play, and play style with this Street Rally version. With this Supermotard-style outfit and a fight with the pals, the Yam roadster gives off a real Moto Tour impression … and a jovial face than the standard model, decked out with a particularly appreciated physique. THE S.R benefits from a few small improvements to reveal a more sporty approach to driving. The riding position changes slightly, with the MT-09 SR benefiting from a flatter and higher saddle. Look at the new radiator scoops, the headlight trim, the cross-design style hand guards, the little beak under the headlight, then look down at the engine block. Nice magnesium finish on the cylinder head cover and the crankcase at the end of the crankshaft. Let’s quickly pass by the engine shoe embryos to discover the wind instrument of this MT. It is a complete Akrapovic line in titanium which will play the music in three chords. Once the ignition is on, the 3 cylinders barking, and your desire for wanton activated, your boots will be happy with the new footrests offering better grip..

A little promo with Valentino Rossi delirious night version, a few accessories, an excited face, a desire for Supermot ‘, here are the main virtues of the MT-09 Street Rally. Nothing exceptional but a rather nice exercise in the service of attractiveness.
