2019 Yamaha MT-07, 2019 Yamaha MT-07 DARK ATTRACTION

A light weight and torque inspired twin cylinder at a great value inviting you to experience the thrills of the dark side.

Features may include:

• Engine

The MT-07 features a compact 689cc liquid-cooled, inline twin cylinder, DOHC engine with fuel injection. This engine provides a unique power character, with outstanding low- to mid-range torque and very linear throttle response, combined with strong high-rpm pulling power. This motor develops 50 foot pounds of torque and is designed to maximize riding excitement in the real world.

The 2-cylinder engine features Yamaha’s “Crossplane Crankshaft Concept” 270- degree crank that provides linear torque development in response to the rider’s throttle input. The CP2® engine is also light, slim and compact, and offers an excellent level of rider/machine communication.

The CP2 engine shifts its cylinder bores slightly forward, towards the exhaust side. This offset reduces piston to cylinder wall friction, for more power and improved fuel economy.

• Chassis/Suspension

The front suspension features a 41mm fork with 5.1 inches of travel, with carefully selected spring rates and damping settings for a refined suspension feel and responsive performance across a wide range of riding styles.

The MT-07 features a link-type Monocross shock adjustable for both rebound damping and spring preload. The shock provides 5.1 inches of rear travel, and is positioned below the seat with an almost horizontal alignment, which helps make the chassis much more compact.

A lightweight, high-strength steel frame provides an optimized rigidity balance for nimble, agile handling. The engine is a stressed member of the chassis, allowing a lighter, more compact main frame design that contributes to the low wet weight of only 403 lb.

• Additional

The MT-07 features a refined style to match the rest of the MT family, including an angular headlight, aggressive intake scoops, a sleek fuel tank cover, and a layered tail design featuring a bright LED tail light.

The slim 3.7 gallon fuel tank is both stylish and compact to provide excellent comfort and knee grip area, while still permitting easier planting of both feet on the ground, for added rider confidence at stops.

The compact full-LCD instrument panel includes a digital bar-type tachometer display with gear position indicator, digital speedometer, odometer, dual trip meters, fuel gauge, fuel re
