New Colour for 2025 Yamaha MT-09

There is a new colour for the 2025 Yamaha MT-09, called Lightning Blue. The previous Tech Black is still available.

The MT-09 is a long-running model since its launch in 2014, and had undergone several updates. But perhaps more importantly is its affordable pricing for a sub-900cc bike.

Yamaha says that the subframe has been redesigned, in addition to the suspension’s spring rate.

Elsewhere, all other parts are unchanged, including the 890cc, inline-triple engine, which produces 117 hp (87.5 kW) at 10,000 RPM and 93.0 Nm at 7,000 RPM. Apart from that the bike features personalised ridemodes via the Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) function, intuitive switchgear, and cruise control.

This new colour will be available at all authorized Yamaha Big Bike dealers nationwide starting from 09th October 2025, with a recommended retail price of RM57,998.00 excluding registration fees and insurance coverage.

Wahid's lust for motorcycles was spurred on by his late-Dad's love for his Lambretta on which he courted, married his mother, and took baby Wahid riding on it. He has since worked in the motorcycle and automotive industry for many years, before taking up riding courses and testing many, many motorcycles since becoming a motojournalist. Wahid likes to see things differently. What can you say about a guy who sees a road safety message in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell."
