Big brother for CB750
« on: September 09, 2016, 05:38:45 AM »
Hello all
Picked up my first v-twin yesterday, a Yamaha MT-01. Great bike to ride, power where you need it and fantastic brakes. Cheaper to run than the Honda. It makes the Honda look like a 250. Still the Honda is my pride and joy as it took several years to get all the parts to put it together.
Regards
Colin

 Did we get those in the USA ? Never seen one around that I remember, looks like a very cool machine.

That MT-01 looks an awful lot like Shooter from Durarara!

1670 cc, 150nm of torque but only 90hp.
Great acceleration in top gear but only does 220kph at redline of 5500 revs. 2500 revs good for close to 115kph.
Comes with Yam. R1 brakes and suspension.
