This bike is on my list to test as a possible replacement for my mt10 which in reality is too much for our roads imo. Im also going to try the street triple rs which by all accounts has less torque but I’d say has much nicer build quality and that’s important to me. I also test road the tiger 900 gt pro from pure Wellingborough through the same route that you took the 660 sport on and was hugely impressed with the handling and balance, I swear it was quicker than my 10 down those bumpy B roads! Great to see my local routes being ridden with vigour, really enjoyed the video!

I haven’t ridden the MT10 yet, but it’s on my wish list to try. I’ll be honest though, the 09 has pretty much spot on the right amount of power for our roads. There’s just enough there to have some huge naughty fun, without getting too much. And because the chassis is so playful and the electronics so good, it all feels perfectly controlled. As I said in the video, there was one set of bends i came in a bit hot on, but she carried me through with no problems. The bike is far more capable than I am! I agree with you on the build quality, there are a few areas that leave a little to be desired, but then again at the price point I wouldn’t grumble too much. I am hoping to be test riding a Street Triple RS at the end of next month, so that will be a very interesting comparison. We do have some great roads in our area. 👍🏻

Always wanted to try one of these as the engine seems to be incredible but I'm not a fan of the upright riding position - really hoping Yamaha bring out an R9 🤞

You guys ride way more responsibly than some of the idiots over here in the US, including myself (sometimes) at 61 yrs old. This is my second mt09, 3rd gen MUCH improved in terms of handling/stability. These mt09's just BEG you to break the law!

I heard the turning circle isn't great on the new model. Wish they'd put a nicer looking exhaust on it. And that brake fluid reservoir is so ugly, they need to bring back the nice square black ones. I was looking forward to the new XSR900, as I have the previous model, but the new one just doesn't look great.

Yes, the turning circle wasn’t the best, but also not the worst of bikes I’ve ridden. I did manage a nice u turn just fine though so I didn’t mark it down for that. I don’t mind the exhaust so much, I think it’s packaged well. I imagine a lot of owners will stick an after market end can on anyway! Seems to be a common thing with front brake fluid reservoirs nowadays. Not a big fan of the looks of the XSR900 personally.
