2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP – The first generation, launched for the European market around the end of 2016, was produced by the Yamaha Motor Company, made by a Japanese motorcycle manufacturer in the MT motorcycle series.
At the beginning of the launch, there were not many significant improvements, only a few improvements such as the öhlins electronic racing suspension from the YZF-R1M, a full-color TFT LCD instrument panel, and an exclusive color scheme.
Since its introduction to all markets, the MT series still exists today and has undergone significant changes to make it better than the previous generation.
WHAT IS NEW FOR 2023?
Yamaha Motor Company said the features are updated. We hope the body design and colors will be updated to give a more luxurious feel for the next generation.
- Carrying the theme “SPEED OF DARKNESS”, showing off a new luxurious and aggressive look, the Yamaha MT-10 SP 2023 is uniquely designed. Premium styling can be seen in the Liquid Metal / Raven color scheme, which signifies its status at the top of the Hyper Naked range.
- The 2023 Yamaha MT-10 SP standard Braided steel brake line provides a high level of feel to the lever. The advantage is more fastness in any conditions, especially in extreme tracks.
- It has the advanced Quick Shift System (QSS) on the new MT-10 SP. this system makes full acceleration even more enjoyable.
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP TOP SPEED?
Yamaha MT-10 SP calls it “DARK SPEED” it’s a great challenge. It will all prove if you experience the total performance of MT‑10 SP, you will know that you are entering the Dark Side.
Then some people will ask what the top speed produced by Yamaha MT-10 SP is. We’re expecting a 2023 Yamaha MT-10 SP Top Speed of 160mph.
Many factors will affect the top speed to remain consistent in its performance, including the engine, quality/condition of the chain, and motorcycle tires also a significant role. Then the load is carried by the rider on the motorcycle, and the last is the reliability of the rider for the appropriate gear shift timing. And fit.
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP HORSEPOWER?
You won’t find maximum horsepower on short trips. Then how much horsepower is the Yamaha MT-10 SP? we expect the same horsepower as the previous year. Even slightly higher is the 2023 Yamaha MT-10 SP Horse Power 164 hp.
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP ENGINE
FUTURISTIC ENGINE DESIGN
Major motorcycle companies use various ways to outperform the market competition, including the Yamaha MT-10 SP, to attract attention with its high-performance engine design and maintain the creation of a street sport bike.
The Yamaha MT-10 SP engine features a sturdy, lightweight piston design and a carburizing cracked connecting rod that runs through a rigid closed-deck cylinder block. Very neatly and intricately designed.
Function Engine cylinders are offset to reduce friction losses, with holes for heat dissipation, further increasing power and efficiency.
SAME CRANKSHAFT CROSSPLANE ENGINE AS R1
If you look back in history circa 2015, the Yamaha YZF-R1 was the basis for the inspiration for the MT-10 SP. It is a powerful 998cc inline four-cylinder engine that uses a cross-plane engine but is tuned to focus on low to medium torque.
Not without reason, the technology owned by the Yamaha YZF-R1 superbike is very famous for its performance and was even explicitly developed for high-performance needs.
COMPACT TRANSMISSION
Excellent handling will result in the engine running optimally. The six-speed transmission “stacks” the crankshaft, input and output shafts in a triangular layout to concentrate mass and keep the engine shorter from front to rear.
INTAKE SYSTEM AND PERFORMANCE
Your night ride adds aggressiveness and confidence to the theme offered by the MT-10 SP “SPEED OF DARKNESS” plus, the sound produced through the MT-10 SP air box is specially designed. There are three inlets with adjustable and variable lengths to resonate harmoniously at various engine speeds to create a unique intake roar that enhances the overall driving experience.
DESIGN COOLING SYSTEM
The design of the MT-10 SP Radiator is slightly oversized and curved. Radiator water dramatically affects the engine to remain stable so that there is no overhead and unwanted things. The oil cooling system will control the hot temperature so that the engine’s potential performance will maintain it.
CLUTCH SYSTEM
Build your aggressive nightlife and put your agility to the ins and outs of the city. MT-10 SP is ready to offer a smooth and light driving experience with an assist clutch that works when the motorcycle is accelerating. A slipper clutch helps prevent the rear wheel from slipping when the rider applies the engine brake by lowering gears to extremes.
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP CHASSIS & SUSPENSION
ADVANCED ÖHLINS SEMI-ACTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM
The new MT-10 SP suspension style selection is the Öhlins suspension. The advantages are in the preload setting for hard or soft sets depending on your travel track as needed. The upgraded suspension for the next generation can be controlled electronically using the latest spool valve dampers.
The development of improved technology is a lesson from the previous generation to achieve optimal comfort. It is very advanced and has manual and automatic modes to adjust the more excellent damping. The system will continuously adjust the rebound and compression damping to suit the current operating conditions.
ALUMINUM DELTABOX (DERIVED FROM THE YZF-R1)
Before discussing the Deltabox frame more broadly, maybe a little information for you, in 1982, the Deltabox frame was first introduced on the YZR500 OW6 racing motorbike.
Yamaha still uses the aluminum Deltabox frame because of its sturdy and lightweight quality. Even some motorcycle manufacturers have imitated the same.
The main reason the MT-10 SP uses the engine as a compressed frame part is optimal cornering performance. An ultra-compact 55.3-inch wheelbase. The frame uses a specially developed strength-rigid balance.
ADVANCED ABS BRAKES
Traveling around the city, both day and night, with various risks on the road, requires the right braking system to protect the rider from collisions or automatic braking. The Yamaha MT-10 SP 2023 works with a combination of an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with high-specification braking components. Including a radial-mount, large 320mm front disc and 220mm rear disc provide excellent braking power and control.
2023 YAMAHA MT-10 SP VS 2023 BMW S1000R
Comparing super naked motorcycles is challenging. Not just looking in one direction, it is challenging to decide on the best choice. Of course, the engine, design, and features used are the best choices for their products.
Briefly, the 2023 BMW S1000R produces 165 hp at 11,000 rpm, and for the 2023 Yamaha MT-10 SP Horse Power 164 hp (still predicting), the previous horsepower was around 160 hp.
