a forum is still the best place to share organised infos... forget watsap or fb..

mt09 common problems..

http://www.fz09.org/forum/34-yamaha-fz-09-...problems-issues

Am I the only one who think that only Harley's bike is worth buying for long term due to it's design?

For the others, it will suddenly looks outdated after 1 or 2 years.

Any modern bike will lost the design within 1 decade....

Harley yes, the design maintained and a beautiful bike, but if you are into ride handling quality, Harley is nowhere near..

many dealers are getting stock now..

d face reminds me of crazy frog...

if you r tall n big size rider... this is how it looks...

Anyone booked this already?

Checked it out yesterday. Very tempting.

well... y still thinking...?

Scared of paying monthly installment.
Now that I don't have anymore installment to pay, car and bike......freedom now. Haha.

But the new 09 is very nice.

buy buy buy! ..remember u only live once..enjoy while your age,health & wallet afford you..

Trade in your bike for this new 09.

Just swipe the card and ride away with the new bike. YOLO

Can borrow your card

Racun racun. Tho I have serious issue with LED light like why dont you shove that fuking thing to your own face and tell me it's not too bright.

It's not so much about LED. But how a person install it, cheap Vs branded LED (after market replacement). If it is original , comes with the bikes, no issues.
I bought one cheap LED from empire bike, install it....the beam was off focus and shooting everywhere. Took it out and throw it into the bin... Though it costs me about 80bucks. Still throw it away . Then i Bought a branded Philips LED, use it happily for the past 1 year now.

Sure can, but my credit limit can't even pay for the down payment... LOL

Never mind. I top up a bit.

Eh? Which one you bought?

Philips Xtreme Ultinon...something like this.

I might be looking at something different from a cruiser really so this bike is defi in the list. Scary tho, 100hp isnt a funny thing when you have a very short straights.

Which is more tame? Z9 or 09 ?

Anywhere got test ride let me know around KV area. I just tested 2012 R6, thinking of this or used R6. Pricing similar. Just thinking want to continue naked or Supersport.

How will u use this bike? Daily commute ?

Tbh, i never rode any of them but 09 has lower weight, taller despite being less torque than z9 so that might play into the riding dynamics. Imo, neither is tame really but maybe 09 is the wild child here because of reports saying the low end torque performance. Only bummer maybe 09 has slightly smaller fuel tank.

No nonsense opinion, just listen to the engine, upshift, downshift and the bike behaviors.

Mixed but mostly will ride to work. Been doing with my Dukie for the past 2 years. No need jam and toll.

Reckon 09 would be much better to commute, the R6 need to get comfortable as changing riding style, need to bend. Haha

Z9 tamer a bit when under 4k rpm. I don't dare to twist the throttle suddenly with an MT09 (tried friend's bike but just around shop lots).
MT09 has a shorter wheelbase IINM, that's why they are easier to wheelie I guess.

Daily... Then better not get a sports bike.

😁

Having MT09 as daily is quite overkill really but considering the price maybe. Still for area like those peak hour heavy traffic kapchai rules. When you daily then at least a topbox seems to be a highly desireable addition despite an eyesore.

old brazilian rempit with mt09.. in kinda congested traffic...

many rempit brazil wit xj6 several years ago their vid kinda viral.. ppl said they will be dead soon..

but now 2018 still alive .....



anyway the vid quality sucks ... n mouth kenot shut can fight the noisy ekzos...



this vid is better.. mt09 is made to be ridden like this.... hooligan style....




compare with z900

Either it's the bad mic with the cam or the exhaust notes really sucks on that blue 09. I prefer the sound on the video i posted. Yea with the explosive raw power 09 has or any big cc sport bikes, seeing people abused it is normal really. One of the reason where I went to cruiser path was because I'd be wasting the power, not being able as in spirit or has the vigilance required to handle such beast. The price is cheap tho so damn yea Im tempted a bit. The engine has matured since 2014 so prolly when 2019 there should be plenty enough for 2nd has bike to appear, cheap with full accesories. Lol

There is a comfortable sports bike, Gsxr 600. Daily commute not a problem.

bro do u experience any choppy throttle of the mt09 as mentioned by many riders?

Define choppy lol, 3 cylinder torque came quicker than 4 in-line. If u open & close the throttle suddenly, any bike will jerk.
From my exp, MT-09 is not choppy.

well, those were the reviews by mat salleh frm most mags, so im not really sure wht they meant by choppy.

it is the first gen mt09 they r talking about, then yamaha did try to smoothen it out for the next batch b4 the bug eye 2017 version.

i dont think they meant by open n close throttle fast..
but something like maintaining constant throttle.. @ kinda constant speed.. they will feel that it is not smooth...

i try find some more info n post here..

I think choppy as in the throttle is very sensitive that like a slight pull just a few mm will trigger quite a big response from the engine.

I havent been reading fz09.org alot,

many riders use terms like jerky, twitchy , choppy throttle of mt09..

and some feels that it is the triples' engine response.. a surge of torque they call it.. although it is not the case..

actually it is yamaha's problem in designing this ride by wire mt09..

after many people complained... this is yamaha's response..

yamaha termed it as " non- linear throttle characteristic "

this is the notice issued by yamaha..

So mean need to re-flash the ECU ler...

Want smooth go for 4 in-line ler. But damn, the latest MT-09 spec look so tempting. Dunno the QS on new MT would be on par with 675R, coz 675R using translogic QS.

hvnt heard rider complain about speed triple or other triple being not smooth.. so its yamaha's problem.. i guess.. they already admit it..

I would just skip Yamaha big bike if you are thinking of buying. I just bought a MT-09 and took the bike home and the ABS light lid up all the way home. Call the dealer immediately and it took me 1 whole day to explain the ABS is not working. They advice me to bring the bike into my local Hong Leong Yamaha service centre to check.

Finally reached the HL Yamaha, took them about 20 mins to determine the ABS pump gone need replacing. WTF? A brand spanking new bike come out from the factory with 0km on the clock with ABS issue? Is HL Yamaha having a laugh on the QC department or just having tea break from 9am to 5pm?

So after they determine they need to replace the ABS pump and order the part. I've check in every week to see if the part are in. It took them 2 fxxxing months to get the part from Japan. Last time I check Japan is closer than any European bike manufacture even the KTM or Ducati guys don't need 2 months to get a simple part with already available immediately since they CDK the bike in Malaysia.

Finally they call me in for the repair after more than 2 months. Still need at least 3 days to change the pump.

Sadly I'm not the only one who have the same problem. I've got friend who have a brand newly launched Tracer GT less than 1 month and the ABS sensor broke make the bike unridable.

SKIP YAMAHA... I'm going back to European bike.

sorry to hear tht.. i would be mad too...

At least you have an engine bro

RM50k just for an engine? No thank you. Get rid of the bike soon.

street triple.. any others?

Don't like Power Ranger face.

MV Agusta is an option. But the with limited service centre.

ducati triumph mvagusta aprillia bmw... wht else? moto guzzi..

missed out ktm... .. got duke 790...

@ tht price mt09 currently still is very popular..

My FZ6R is pretty dumb...no electronic aids, no hazard lights, no flasher...so far, luckily it is still functioning well

The bike chasing scene is movie James Wick.... Is using mt09. Right?

I thought I saw it in the trailer.

https://d13ezvd6yrslxm.cloudfront.net/wp/wp...ase-700x291.jpg

This one? Ya, its MT09
There is another scene John Wick riding horse fight with biker, that one look like another bike.

Keanu is a biker fan in real life.

Kalau camtu, beli Royal Enfield la. Kekeke...

Retro style bikes by their very definition will not go out of style. And that includes Jap UJMs - their looks live forever!

Salam sifu all...
May i ask, if d shop gives a free voucher of RM 3k for any products for an MT 09, helmet, jacket, exhaust, slider bar, windshield etc. Or if one doesnt want to take those accessories, they can choose to cash it out but will only get RM 2k.
Which is better? Pls advise sifu all. TQTQ

I think better opt for cash. Btw may i know which shop offer this discount? And do they have black color MT09? Coz most shop only have blue n white. I interested with the black MT09.

what the current best price for cash MT09?

I had alr taken d cash option...
I bought from a shop in shah alam. But im not so happy wit this shop so i dont recommend...
My new bike got some scratch marks on d exhaust chrome & minor marks on d LH swing arm... they replace d exhaust chrome wit another display bike inside d shop... i was ok wit tat lah... but d mechanic who did d replacement, didnt even know clockwise or anti-clockwise when loosing a nut! He was tightening d nut while he actually trying to loosen it. Until i told him halo bro, to remove u need to turn anti clockwise. Then he realise. Another mechanic came & told d boss in front of me, alaa boss, this is just dirty, where got scratched!??!

After that d boss brief me a bit on d usage & all. He
told me, d owners manual is online so u just go goggle la.
But d other part which he didnt tell is that there is actually a warranty booklet & service record sheets wit 2 free service coupons.

I only found out from HLYamaha tat d shop need to provide to owner. Later on i wasap d boss & he check, oh ya, got lah, come collect la.
Later tat day evening i went & collect. It was a 2017 booklet with few pages torn off. It seems d torn off pages were d service coupons. Then he said, im giving u 2 years free labour service ma, so u dont need tat coupons! And about d 2017 booklet, u ask yamaha la why they give 2017...

Fuhhh, a total loss of confident in this shop.

It seems Eng Chun also have d same offer... try ask...

Loan aeon got RM 3k voucher for accessories. And can opt for cash back but only 2k. I think d shop will eat up tat 1 k...

go for the engine n suspension tune up recommended @ fb group

Sorry to hear your bad experience with that shop, bro. Just name the shop so that other members can avoid to purchase anything with that shop in the future. Bad customer service is not good for business at all.

Since 1st May 2019, HLYM no longer giving the manual booklet for new bike purchase. We have to download the manual online via HLYM website.

Enjoy your new bike bro!

Totally sucks.

wow, so sorry to hear that bero. must be devastating for u to spend lots of money but the service provided is lousy. i hope everything will be good with u and the bike.
so u managed to get black color mt-09? i tot 2019 mt09 production dont have black color anymore?

Thabks for all your support bros!

The shop name is Icitymotorworld...
I chosed d Matt grey fluo unit...
Now buying 1 by 1 all those sliders, tank pads etc... fuhhh, so busy these days 😂...
I enjoy d bike but a bit awkward coz im short & she s tall 🤣, so need some time to get used to it...
Few days ago i went trim down d seat a little, it was better now... some 2 cm lower i think...
Engine tuning, maybe after warranty period lah...
Now i just thinking to change a bigger front sprocket secretly bcoz d shop said once modify d sprockets, warranty void...
I just have a feeling tat d gear is too low while it has alr in 6th on hway... it was like im cruising in 5th gear...
And i just did around 240km+- for 1 full tank... alr refill 3 times... still in b mode & traction 2, still riding below 5k rpm before 1st 1000 km service... tempoh pantang... hehe..
Hopefully changing d sprocket can improve cruising & gas mileage...

I have been also calling yamaha sg buluh but since tat 1 time managed to speak to somebody, then after tat all other calls were unanswered 🤨🤨🤨...
HongLeong yamaha also problem...
Mayb sifu all got some good contact to do my service...?

according to gearing commander, mt09 @ 6th gear @ 5k rpm = 121kmh..

u feel tht is high??

u want it to be like car ??

😚 just a little higher gear at cruising lor... nama pun cruising ma... not drag race ma... haha...

Moreover, d engine is so powerful so torquey, dont waste those torque lar, i wish to turn it into speed... 😋

actually d stock setting is considered ok, bikes like z900 also hv kinda same gearing.

more powerful bikes like kawa gtr gearing will hv lower rpm

Kedai yg ni ker?

what's the current mileage?
still on 'pantang' right?
for CP3 - 847cc, recommended 'pantang' is up until 1,000 miles = 1,600 kilometer.

currently set in B mode & TCS 2?
you are in RAIN mode, limiting the power output from the engine.
at this moment, you can use A mode & TCS 1, play around with engine character & continue ride until 1st 1,000 kilometer service.
after 1st service, continue learning about the bike until 1,600 kilometer & after that you can enjoy your bike to the max!

I'm using Tracer 900 GT, clocked 5,640 kilometer as per today since 18 May 2019.
enjoy the bike, bro!

Yes bro, this shop...

So looonnngggg 1600km 😓😓😓
1000 km also no patient lor... 🤪😵😩🤒

Tenang is good, bro.
Take it as a learning period for you to learn about the bike & getting know it's characteristic.
Play around the torque curve, learn more about throttle control & balance ability so that you can understand your bike better later on.
This Master of Torque (MT-09) is very wild when ride hard, relaxing when ride normally.

Enjoy your bike, bro!

OK! TQ for info!

Aiyai sir! 😚😚😚

Fuhyou. Master of torque.

What do you call z900 then? Higher torque than mt09.

max torque z900 higher..

but d mapping+setting done by yamaha for mt09 makes d bike like wild horse.. lol..

Yamaha already use the term during launching MT-07 & MT-09 years ago.
Got anime videos as well : https://global.yamaha-motor.com/showroom/mt/

For 2019: https://www.roadracingworld.com/news/yamaha...scheme-in-2019/

chill la bro.

So when you can let me audition your master of tork ?

Today i went to Yamaha sg buloh sc to reset engine check light on after washing my bike last Sunday 😓...

Quite a disappointed experience...

1st of all, sc office phone is terribly hard to get thru...
2nd of all, they dont have specialised dept like superbike section counter & cupcai counter...
There were 3 or 4 guys sharing 1 front counter, which have 2 work station in it...
Numbering system is not working (maybe due to renovation work in progress)...
I can see 1 MT09 park at their workshop parking area, rest are y25v& y15 few units, cupcai a lot, nmax 2 3 units, xmax 1 unit...
All in all, i have a feeling that hong leong yamaha really dont gives a damn to treasure their customers.

I just wonder whether these are inline with d corporate policy of yamaha Japan to their customers. Or maybe yamaha Japan didn't know this shit Hong Leong group is making to their customers...

We must wrtie this thing viral to reach to d Japanese HQ... anybody know how can we proceed???

And no wonder their dealers also treating their customers like beggars only... coz they also must knew alr, HLY doesnt give a damn to their customers & customer service.

🤬🤬🤬

havent you read the rant by another member, also mt09 owner...previously posted...

anyway.. hongleong is bz promoting the gen blue carnival now.. n there will be alot of Y followers attending..

problem solved tak, bro?

May I suggest you to go to Ah Hong Motor, Sentul for further troubleshoot any issue if arise again as HLYM HQ failed to please you yesterday?
Seems like we can only rely with Yamaha Star Shop only for checking & troubleshooting our bikes.
I know that they can perform better than the HQ.

http://www.ahhongmotor.com.my/about-us/

Alhamdulillah settled under warranty...

This shop good bro? Inused to pass by this shop, opposite maybank cornet lot & adjacent to IPD sentul...

I even went in tat shop to see if they have any mt09 before i landed in d shah Alam shop coz they dont have stock...

So this Ah Hong shop can perform warranty & service as authorised dealer lah?
Then it is good news bcoz we really need alternative dealers since HLY is not focusing on good after sales customer satisfaction...

Anyway, thank you all my bros for all d valuable info for a newb like me 🙏🙏🙏🤝🤝🤝...

ahhong is official yamaha big bike dealer.
where as icity is not authorised yamaha dealer.
got few categories according to hly website,..

of cos can buy frm non dealer. trick is to buy frm a reputable one.

Ya.. hly also said they have A shop dealers or B shop...
Icity is B shop...
Wat to do, rice is now porridge 😭😭😭

http://www.yamaha-motor.com.my/find-dealer/

Select your state & category.
HLYM have selected categories for their dealership, namely Authorized Dealer, Star Centre, Star Shop, Big Bike, YQS, YGP Store & Spare Part Stockist.
For me, I choose M.H Chua Bdr. Sri Permaisuri for purchasing my bike on last February & visit their shop for 1st & 2nd servicing as they are certified Yamaha Star Shop & Yamaha Big Bike dealer.

Enjoy your bike, bro!

icity not listed....

TQ so much bro 👍👍👍

Crying without tears... 😭😭😭

Assalamualaikum tuan sifu all.

I would like to ask, can we use kerosene to clean our chain or not...?
I saw d utube white guy spraying kerosene & soaked d chain till super clean... kinda awesome...
But i also read on google that the kerosene will spoil the seals...
