For faster and more efficient acceleration the MT-10 is fitted with a Quick Shift System (QSS) as standard. This electronic system enables you to perform full throttle clutchless upshifts, as well as smoother and more controlled clutchless downshifts that – along with the A&S clutch – help to maintain chassis stability when decelerating.
For more relaxed and enjoyable riding the MT-10 comes equipped with a cruise control system. A switch on the left handlebar turns the cruise control on or off. Featuring a Variable Speed Limiter (YVSL), giving the rider the ability to set a top speed limit to suit various situations, this ensures that public road speed limits are not accidentally exceeded.
Nothing can match the thrill of the MT-10’s powerful 998cc CP4 engine. Its crossplane technology design gives a unique uneven firing sequence that delivers sensational torque for remarkable acceleration – a tuned intake system with larger intake ducts and tank-mounted Acoustic Amplifier Grilles emit a deep roar for a spine-tingling experience as you open the throttle.
The MT-10 comes equipped with a 4.2in full-colour TFT display that features a clear and easy to read screen. A menu switch on the right handlebar enables the rider to select which information displayed, while the ‘Mode/Select’ switch on the left can be used to change the intervention levels of the electronic rider aids.
The MT-10 has a distinctive look with a more integrated feel that gives a more minimalist and imposing appearance. Compact twin-eye mono-focus LED headlights with separate high and low beam units provide excellent illumination and project a powerful and even beam with softer light at the edges, while LED position lights are situated above the headlights for a refined yet dominant look.
With its R1 derived system featuring dual floating 320mm discs and 4-piston radial mounted calipers, the MT-10 is equipped with the most sophisticated braking package fitted to any production Yamaha. The model benefits from a Brembo radial front brake master cylinder for even more accurate feel and controllability, giving you the ultimate stopping performance.
