-
Gravity cast, aluminum R1 based Deltabox frame
- designed to offer an optimized strength — rigidity balance (balance of strength, rigidity & tuned flex) to maximize handling & suspension performance
- engine is stressed member with rigid mounts
- benefits include reduced weight, excellent high-speed stability & cornering characteristics, excellent traction / drive characteristics exiting a corner and greater freedom in choosing or changing a line through a turn
-
Detachable steel rear subframe
- steel is used for additional strength (optional sport luggage)
- reduces costs in the event of damage & allows easier rear shock access
-
Lightweight aluminum "upward truss-type" swingarm
- provides great torsional rigidity for excellent rear wheel traction & control
- swingarm length is 570 mm to optimize traction, suspension performance & reduce effects of "chain tensioning"
- swingarm features threaded holes for accessory spools for superbike style stand
-
Short 1400 mm (55.1") wheelbase for super agile handling.
-
Fully adjustable KYB 43 mm inverted fork with 120 mm (4.7") of wheel travel.
- R1 based fork with setting revisions
- adjustments include: spring preload, rebound & compression damping
- incredible suspension performance with excellent "feedback"
- inverted design reduces unsprung weight & increases the rigidity of the fork since the larger diameter tubes are gripped in the triple clamps
- adjustable design allows the rider to tune suspension to match riding style, rider weight & road or track conditions
-
Lightweight aluminum upper & lower triple clamps.
-
Fully adjustable Monocross link rear suspension utilizes a piggyback-style KYB shock providing 120 mm (4.7") of wheel travel.
- shock adjustments include: threaded spring preload, rebound damping, slow speed compression damping & high speed compression damping
- overall shock length can be adjusted by 5 mm for ride height adjustability
- piggyback design helps to keep the shock oil cool for more consistent damping
-
Electric steering damper.
-
ABS equipped, radial mount, 4-piston, mono-block calipers squeeze fully floating 320 mm dual front discs.
- great braking performance with excellent control & lever feedback.
- radial mount design helps to reduce caliper distortion for improved braking performance
- 5-position adjustable front brake lever
-
Compact, single piston, slide-type Nissin rear caliper squeezes a lightweight 220 mm disc.
-
Front & rear brakes feature Yamaha's latest anti-lock brake (ABS) technology.
- ABS offers excellent control under hard braking or braking on wet or slippery surfaces
- when ABS system senses impending wheel lock-up (via active type wheel sensors) it regulates the hydraulic brake pressure to the point just before the wheel(s) lock-up
-
Lightweight, 5-spoke, cast aluminum mag wheels.
- lightweight contributes to excellent handling & suspension (reduced unsprung weight)
- performance
- front rim size is MT3.50 x 17, rear rim is MT6.00 x 17
-
17 litre steel fuel tank.
- tank provides excellent knee grip
- 4 litre reserve capacity (fuel trip meter activates)
- steel design allows use of magnetic tank bags
- in-tank electric fuel pump
-
Tapered aluminum handlebar.
- lightweight design with excellent strength
- offers a comfortable, upright riding position for all day riding comfort
- traditional "handlebar" design allows easy replacement to a different "bend" if desired
-
Minimal "naked" roadster styling with extreme design highlights.
- unique & stylish "face" highlights the lean, muscular look of the MT-10
-
Full LED lighting (headlights, brake & tail lights, turn signals, license plate light).
- excellent illumination & visibility
- headlights can be aimed both vertically & horizontally
- LEDs reduce power consumption (LED bulbs use less power than conventional bulbs)
-
Single piece rider & passenger seat with rider "hip stopper".
- seat design allows good side to side movements & helps hold the rider in place during acceleration
-
Fully digital LCD meter assembly.
- displays include; speedo, bar style tach, odometer, dual trip meters, gear position, clock, intake air temp, coolant temp, instant & average fuel efficiency, fuel gauge, low fuel trip meter (counts kilometers since fuel switched to reserve), ECO light (illuminates when bike is being ridden in a fuel conserving manner), D-Mode display, plus a full range of warning & indicator lights including cruise control & traction control status
- background illumination is adjustable
-
Immobilizer ignition system is designed to reduce the possibility of "ride away" theft.
- system must recognize the "coded ignition key" in order for the unit to start
- if the immobilizer ignition does not recognize the key, the ignition system & starter will not function, even if the ignition is forced into the on position

The MT-10's R1-based crossplane engine has been tuned to provide plenty of low-to-mid-range torque and power. The result is a bike with high-performance capability yet outstanding rideability in typical road situations.?
The distinctive exterior style of the MT-10 is defined by a dynamic mass-forward silhouette with lean yet muscular, athletic lines. A small front cowl, full LED lighting, and exposed engine combine to create the visual expression of spirited performance.
