The new 2025 MT-07 is the highest specification yet, including new radially mounted front brake calipers, 41 mm inverted forks, lightweight SpinForged wheels and striking next-generation MT styling.

Features may include:

• Advanced Twin-Cylinder DOHC Engine

The MT-07 features the renowned 689cc liquid-cooled, inline twin cylinder CP2 engine with fuel injection. The fun and characterful CP2 provides both outstanding low- to mid-range torque and strong high-RPM pulling power. Adding to the visceral connection between rider and machine, the MT-07 also features Acoustic Amplifying Technology which harnesses the CP2's induction roar, channeling it to the rider for an enhanced engine soundtrack and feeling of acceleration.

• Next-Generation Electronic Rider Aids

The advanced Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) contributes to a more linear power delivery and greater connection between rider and machine, while enabling next-generation electronic aids including Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) with three available throttle maps and switchable Traction Control. YRC includes two quick-select preset modes (SPORT and STREET) along with a customizable YRC mode allowing the rider to match their preferred power delivery to their preferred level of Traction Control.

• Highly Responsive KYB Adjustable Suspension

An inverted 41mm KYB front fork offers high levels of control and a planted front-end feel when cornering and braking, all while providing the MT-07 with a more modern look. The linked-type monocross KYB rear shock is optimized to match the rigidity of the front fork, creating a more sporting ride.

• Radially Mounted Front Brakes

Providing next-level stopping power, the 2026 MT-07 features large twin discs gripped by radially mounted 4-piston brake calipers. The design facilitates strong and consistent braking performance thanks to the increased rigidity, which ensures forces are equally distributed during hard braking.

• Five-Inch TFT Display with Smartphone Connectivity

Riders can link their smartphone to the MT-07's rich, full-color TFT display via Yamaha's free Y-Connect app. Functionality includes the ability to receive message notifications, calls and listen to music (through use of an aftermarket Bluetooth headset, not provided). Additionally, full turn-by-turn navigation is available through the Garmin StreetCross app to make each journey easier.

• Minimalist Next-Generation MT Styling

Stripped-back next-generation styling with a minimalist LED headlight unit creates a striking face clearly inspired by the Dark Side of Japan's distinctively modern styling aesthetic. With engineering and styling in perfect harmony, nothing is added to the MT-07 unless it truly enhances the riding experience. The result is a motorcycle which connects to its rider in a way few others can match.

The 2026 Yamaha MT-07 stands out with its liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC inline twin-cylinder engine delivering 689cc of compact, high-revving performance and 4-valves per cylinder for crisp throttle response from the moment you crack the twist grip. Paired with a 6-speed transmission and a multiplate wet clutch with Assist, this motorcycle blends precise gearing with smooth clutch action for confident street and canyon riding. Its built to feel light and responsive, inviting you to push through corners with confidence.

On the road, the Yamaha MT-07 emphasizes agile handling and balanced chassis dynamics. The front suspension uses a KYB single shock at the rear with adjustable preload and rebound damping, while the front and rear travel measure 5.1 inches, delivering a composed ride over varied surfaces. Braking is confident thanks to a capable front brake setup and a rear brake arrangement designed to complement the bikes lightweight, wet weight of 403 pounds. The ride is supported by Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tires in sizes 120/70ZR17 at the front and 180/55ZR17 at the rear, with a wheelbase of 4.58 feet and a seat height of 2.64 feet that help deliver a planted yet approachable stance for riders of all experience levels.
