MT-01

[lund]

So, I have an opportunity of adding an MT-01 in the stables. 2007 with only 17,000kms.
Should I do it, or not.
Few were introduced in the North American market so are parts going to be an issue?
It appears parts are scarce and few but its a Yamaha LOL.
I love this bike and finally found one but maybe best to leave it a lone.

Its a monster of an engine. Great bike. Would be a great toy.

111 lbs/ft of torque at 3700-rpm, in a sportbike chassis? What's not to love!
I would love to ride one of those..............would be a halluva fun bike!

Hmmm. Does it meet EURO 5?

I'd be tempted if they had sold any in the US

I'm currently checking on parts availability, not odd stuff but common stuff.

Not in Texas

HA! Only 17 of our 254 counties have emission testing. And even Kalifornia allows the T-12 to be imported/sold. But what I was thinkin' was that KTM uses a V-motor. And the MT-01 has a ton of grunt. So . . . .

If it's a good price and you love it and don't buy it, you can spend years kicking yourself in the ass for passing on it.
If it's a good price and you buy it, you can ride it till you don't love it and then sell it.

Does that help?

Git it. You can sell it after you lose your license

Do it
Mine never fails to put a huge grin on my face and I will never sell it.
There’s even fewer of them around than S10’s and I always end up talking to someone I’ve never met before whenever I’m out on him.
They share the engine with the Warrior which I believe was sold in the US so it may make parts availability a little better.

That would be me and a VMax.

Adventure rider too Hooligan rider in a split second, love it.

Very cool bike, always liked them. If you have the money then why not? You can always sellout in the future.
