2025 Yamaha MT-07
The Yamaha MT-07 is the most updated model out of this announcement, starting with a design change that brings it closer to the styling of the MT-09. It features a minimalist, stripped-back look with a new LED headlight unit, a slimmer tank, and updated side covers, tail section, and seat assembly.
The MT-07 also gets a new Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle, which enables new rider aids like Yamaha Ride Control with three throttle maps and switchable traction control. Yamaha Ride Control comes with Sport and Street preset modes, as well as a Custom mode. Also new is the slip/assist clutch and the optimized clutch-lever shape. The MT-07 now includes a sounds amplification system to enhance the engine’s sound.

Also new for 2025 is an inverted 41mm KYB fork, with a linkage-type KYB shock that’s been optimized for use with the new fork. New radial-mounted 4-piston calipers pinch twin discs up front, and the wheels now feature thinner and lighter casting thanks to SpinForged technology.
The new 5-inch full-color TFT display includes four selectable themes, and its smartphone connectivity is enhanced to allow phone calls, music, and turn-by-turn navigation. The turn signals now self-cancel after 15 seconds or once the bike has traveled more than 500 feet.

The Yamaha MT-03 also gets a few updates for 2025. Styling remains mostly the same but includes a new tailsection and taillight design. The seat and side covers are slimmer for an easier reach to the ground, and the passenger seat is now wider and more thickly cushioned.
New tech on the MT-03 includes Yamaha Motorcycle Connect smartphone connectivity, which allows viewing incoming calls, emails, and messages, as well as tracking and recording ride data like distance covered, fuel consumption, acceleration, location, and more.

Also included is a new joystick design for a better button shape and feel, and the turnsignals get new functionality with a soft click activating a three-flash signal, a full click flashing continuously, and a self-canceling function after 15 seconds and when the bike has traveled about 500 feet.

The Yamaha XSR900 gets a new 5-inch TFT display with four different themes, including an XSR-exclusive theme with an analog-style tachometer. This new instrument display includes smartphone connectivity to view calls and messages, listen to music, and access turn-by-turn navigation.
Along with the previous ride modes available on the XSR900 (Sport, Street, and Rain), the bike now includes two custom programs that allows riders to set their own preferences. Other new and updated tech includes a new Back Slip Regulator to reduce rear-wheel lock-up under engine braking, a new Yamaha Variable Speed Limiter that allows riders to set a top-speed limit, and a new third-generation up/down quickshifter.

The 2025 Yamaha XSR900 will be available in Raven or Heritage White with an MSRP of $10,599.
2025 Yamaha Tracer 9
For 2025, Yamaha has decided to remove the up-spec Tracer 9 GT+ from its lineup to shift focus to the standard Tracer 9, which receives updates for 2025.
