At Yamaha we understand that a motorcycle is more than a means of getting from here to there. A motorcycle is a reflection of your identity. It says a lot about you. Our lifestyle models are specially created to fit into your world. Like a handcrafted leather glove, some will fit seamlessly. Others are designed as a base for customisation so you can personalise your ride to be as unique as you are.
Whichever way you go, Yamaha lifestyle models will add style to your life.

Power. Torque. Agility. The MT-10 is the experience youve been waiting for. Based on the latest YZF-R1, this new naked is the highest performing MT yet by some margin.
Youve done a lot of riding, so you know exactly what you want. Serious power with corner-carving precision. And natural ergonomics that mean you can ride anywhere at any time. Because a bike this good should not live in the garage.
Driven by a 998cc crossplane engine tuned for extra low to mid range torque - and rolling on a lightweight ultra-short wheelbase aluminium Deltabox chassis with a natural riding position - the MT-10 gives you ultimate power with class leading agility and total control.
MT-10. Ride it, dont hide it.
