Tuning for Thrill Rides: Yamaha MT-09(FZ-09) Custom

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "Yamaha MT-09(FZ-09)" custom by Webike community user "N". The SP TADAO POWERBOX FULL RS Exhaust features a torque line specially tailored for the MT-09 and has a pleasant sound and compact appearance. It is significantly lighter at 3.3kg compared to the 7.1kg stock exhaust. In addition to the weight reduction, the beautiful titanium heat color is an important element in dressing up the bike. TERAMOTO T-REV Φ12 0.07 is used to enhance engine performance. When the piston is pushed down at high pressure due to the explosion, some of the gas blows past the piston rings and flows into the crankcase. This "pumping loss" results in resistance to the piston's movement in the engine. By installing the T-REV in the breather path, which functions as a Crankcase Pressure Reducing Valve, the engine can achieve its original performance, producing equivalent power with less fuel. Sunstar is chosen for both the front and rear sprockets. The Front Sprocket is made of high-wear-resistant chrome molybdenum steel. The friction is reduced to the extent that the bike moves forward more than expected when trying to stop with just engine braking, and it enables riding uphill slopes in a gear one level higher than before. The Rear Sprocket is made of ultra-duralumin (A7075) material for superior rigidity and durability, and the surface is treated with hard anodizing. While ensuring sufficient strength, it significantly contributes to weight reduction below the suspension area. To correspond with the improved riding performance, a BREMBO [T-Drive] Floating Disc is installed for the brakes. It offers heat resistance during hard braking and allows for a more efficient transmission of braking torque. The feel of braking is significantly improved, providing a sense of stability. The stock seat of the MT-09, which is famous for its poor reputation, has been replaced with the YAMAHA Comfort Seat. The knee grip surface is made of highly functional leather, and the seat surface is of high-quality suede-like leather, which not only improves functionality but also enhances the sense of luxury. The cushion of the seat is significantly improved, and the surface is less slippery, so there will be no more sliding forward. The BABYFACE Performance Footpeg Kit features a multi-position system that allows you to set it at the best step position. The movable part has double-installed bearings, enabling extremely smooth operation.
