New 2021 Yamaha MT-09 Engine and Specs
This bike not only looks vibrant but has enough power in its belly to show its aggression. The new 2021 Yamaha MT-09 extracts its power from an 847 cc 3-cylinder, liquid-cooled DOHC engine which generates a whopping 115 horsepower and maximum torque of 87.5 Nm. This naked motard uses a 6-speed constant mesh gearbox to shift its power to the wheel. Like the Yamaha YZF-R1, MT-09 also uses Quick Shift System (QSS) which allows clutchless upshifts and downshifts.
