Description
The MT-07 is a motorcycle that offers big time fun, affordability and riding enjoyment. This versatile naked roadster offers deep engine torque from its 689 cc parallel twin and a comfortable upright riding position combined with a lightweight, easy-to-handle sport chassis. For 2018 the engineers have upgraded the suspension and redesigned the headlight, taillight and bodywork. The revised MT-07 is the perfect machine for both new and experienced riders alike who are looking for outstanding value in a mid-class sport bike.
Styling: For 2018, the MT-07 has been restyled to more closely resemble its bigger MT siblings. Revised aesthetic items include the headlight, front fender, air scoops,, taillight, tail section and new colour options.
Engine: The ultra-reliable, liquid-cooled, 689cc, inline twin has been designed to provide deep torque in the most frequently used rpm range (3,000 to 6,500 rpm). A single balancer shaft keeps things silky smooth, while the 6-speed transmission with overdrive 6th gear reduces engine rpms at highway speeds.
Brakes: ABS equipped dual 282 mm discs with 4 piston calipers up front and a 245 mm rear disc with single piston caliper provides piece of mind while braking under pressure or in wet conditions.

- Convenient oil level sight glass: produces a strong spark for fast starts; provides precise ignition timing / mapping for optimum engine performance at all rpms
- Maintenance-free transistor controlled ignition (TCI): produces a strong spark for fast starts; provides precise ignition timing / mapping for optimum engine performance at all rpms
- High performance direct ignition coils (ignition coils are built into the spark plug caps): reduces weight & complexity
- AC Magneto produces 410 watts of power @ 5,000rpm: triple expansion muffler design with 3-way honeycomb catalyzer reduces exhaust emissions; low mounted design centralizes mass for excellent handling & a light weight feeling
- Stylish, compact, low mounted, 2 into 1 exhaust system: triple expansion muffler design with 3-way honeycomb catalyzer reduces exhaust emissions; low mounted design centralizes mass for excellent handling & a light weight feeling
- Air Injection System (AIS... not ram air) injects fresh air into exhaust ports to fully burn any unburnt fuel, further reducing exhaust emissions.
- Diamond-type, high tensile steel frame: optimized rigidity balance for light, agile handling & excellent stability; engine is a stressed member of the chassis, allowing a lighter, more compact main frame
