Yamaha MT-10

The Yamaha MT-10 is a standard motorcycle that Yamaha makes in its MT series, first sold in 2016 and known as the FZ-10 in North America until 2017. It was introduced at the 2015 EICMA show in Milan and is the flagship of the MT range. Its crossplane engine is based on the one in the 2015 YZF-R1 but retuned for low and mid-range torque, with newly designed intake, exhaust and fuelling systems, and Yamaha claims 118 kW at 11,500 rpm and 111 N-m at 9,000 rpm. The MT-10 replaced the fourteen-year-old FZ1 as the flagship of Yamaha's sport naked range. Its air scoops, styled after the V-Max, were non-functional until the 2022 redesign made them working ram-air scoops. A European-only MT-10 SP followed in October 2016 with Ohlins electronic suspension from the YZF-R1M, a colour TFT instrument panel and its own colour scheme, and from 2018 the bike carries the MT-10 name in every market.
