Evening all

Been off a bike for maybe around 9yrs. Had a 2007 sv650 and 2005 R1 before I stopped riding. I really want another bike now and looking at the MT07, anyone got one who know much about them? Are they a decent bike?

I know they're fast and loud! Haven't had one myself. I do know that they are up near the top of the shopping list for bike thieves, so depending where you live that's worth considering

I was riding it on my training and it was very enjoyable. Had SV650 as first big bike and in my opinion MT07 feels more comfortable.

Thanks, yeah I had the sv650 as my first big bike too. After being off a bike for a while don't really want to jump on something big to get back into the swing of things again.

I recently done my test on a mt07 and i really enjoyed it seat wasn't well padded but apart from that I loved it I also might get one or the xsr700 as it's the same engine

I have a Mt09sp

Been riding for nearly 40 yrs

Had so many bikes over the years

Got the mt and i gota say amazing bike

The mt07 is basically the same just smaller engine

Lots of fun to be had on these bikes

Handles so well

Go book a test ride

I would personally get the Mt09sp

You have 4 power modes so you can start slowly and work your way up the power bands

I think if you have had an R1 you may find the MT07 slightly underwhelming

The Triumph 765 has a lot more engine whilst still being a naked middleweight or the KTM 890

Doesn't take long to get back up yo speed after a break just take it steady until the miles build up again

Went to my local yamaha dealer yesterday, booked a test ride for a couple of weeks time. Got it for 2hrs as well.

That's what I thought, but like I say it's been a while. Sat on a new R1 yesterday and hate to admit it I didn't feel comfortable on it. Now prefer the more upright position. Makes me feel sick saying that lmao

Speed triple is better, but I'm biased

Ruth here. I love my MT07! On my second one now, been to to Italy and the Pyrenees on it no bother! Read any road test. They all sing it’s praises.

Thanks, I'm not after something to blast around on. I just wanted something good and maybe do a bit of euro riding. I need my licence for my job so definitely not interested in anything too quick. Thanks for you feedback.

I'd try the Tracer 700 or 900. Much better for touring, if it must be a Yamaha. Suzuki GSX-S1000F also one worth looking at and Kawasaki Z1000F.

I have the tracer 700 which has the same engine and I am well happy with it. Thought it might be underpowered to start with but I really enjoy it.

I’ve gone from a 19 plate SV650 to a 22 XSR700 and I much prefer the sound of the SV650

The xsr sounds like a bag of spanners.

Feels a lot lighter and more nimble than the SV when you’re riding it though.

Did my test on an MT07. Fab bike, handles nicely, has the get up and go you need and the stability and control to keep you out of trouble
