The Yamaha MT-07 was a standard middleweight naked motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha in 2014 that packed a compact tubular backbone frame with a horizontaly-mounted monoshock absorber on the rear for a shorter wheelbase, weight reduction, and a lower center of gravity.
In 2014, the Yamaha MT-07 made its debut at the EICMA Motorcycle Show as a smaller version of the MT-09 which shared many features and came with a muscular look, sporty tail designs, a sculpted fuel tank, and 17 inches wheels.
The MT-07 was a new kind of naked bike designed to bring fun, affordability, and enjoyment to the streets with its deep torque, great fuel economy, and one of the lightest, slimmest, and most agile chassis designs in its class.
In the performance department, the 2014 Yamaha MT-07 was powered by a 689cc engine that featured the Yamaha cross-plane crankshaft design, which provided linear torque delivery and outstanding acceleration.
At its core, the Yamaha MT-07 took advantage of the 689cc four-stroke two-cylinder liquid-cooled engine and delivered an output power of 75 hp with a peak at 9,000 rpm and 68 Nm (50 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,500 rpm.
For braking performance, the bike packed two 282 mm discs with two hydraulic calipers that handled the front wheel and a 245 mm disc with a hydraulic caliper on the rear wheel.
