ENGINE

Torquey 689cc twin-cylinder DOHC fuel-injected CP2 engine.

Lightweight connecting rods, intake valves and forged pistons.

Yamaha's Crossplane Crankshaft Concept 270-degree crankshaft delivers linear torque for exciting acceleration and limited vibration.

Forged aluminum pistons make for lighter weight and excellent strength at extreme temperatures and higher RPMs.

Throttle valves governed by the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) system enables finer actuation and precise control.

Six-speed transmission stacks input/output shafts in a triangular layout to keep overall engine size shorter from front-to-back.

Dog gear angle and number of engagement teeth is optimized for smoother gear shifts.

Engine induction note is enhanced by adopting the same intake duct shape and asymmetrical funnel lengths as the current MT-07.

Assist & Slipper clutch provides lighter clutch lever pull and smoother chassis behavior during downshifts.

Third-generation Quick Shift System (QSS) enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts under both acceleration and deceleration.
