2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike – Features and Price
Engine
The new 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike provided the powerful 998cc inline four-cylinder engine that uses Yamaha’s famed Crossplane Crankshaft technology developed for the YZF-R1 superbike. The crossplane design virtually eliminates inertial engine torque that allows for a direct link between the throttle and the back tire resulting in maximum traction and linear torque feel. The MT- 10 SP engine is tuned exclusively for the needs of high-performance street riders that produce incredible low- and mid-rpm torque and arm-stretching top-end power.
The engine architecture of the MT-10 SP offers the ultimate high-performance city sportbike. Robust, lightweight forged pistons and carburized fracture-split connecting rods run through a highly vital closed-deck cylinder block that ensures engine reliability. The engine’s cylinders have plated bores for superior heat dissipation cylinder sealing and are slightly offset to minimize friction losses. The rocker-arm valve actuation system takes advantage of each rocker arm’s lever ratio to allow for higher valve lifts while requiring fewer camshaft lobes and less spring pressure resulting in increased power and economy. To center mass and make the engine shorter front-to-back, the six-speed transmission “stacks” the crankshaft, input and output shafts in a triangle structure with optimal engine placement in the frame for superb handling. The airbox on the MT-10 SP is constructed with three different-length intake ducts that are engineered to resonate harmoniously at different engine speeds to provide a unique intake scream that improves the entire riding experience.
Larger intake ducts on either side of the fuel tank improve efficiency while adding to the car’s purposeful, aggressive appearance. A substantially curved radiator keeps the engine cool while a compact air-cooled oil cooler maintains oil temps steady in any weather. The need for additional parts is reduced, and weight is saved, thanks to a simplified pipe and hose routing. When entering corners aggressively. Yamaha’s assist and slipper clutch give the rider a smoother, more confident downshift as well as a brighter pull effort at the lever, all while effortlessly handling the torque of the MT-10 SP’s high-output inline-four motor.
Chassis/Suspension
The new 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike is the first motorcycle in the world to feature Ohlins’ next-generation electronically controlled suspension with spool valve damping. This cutting-edge technology allows for a broader range of damping changes and a better degree of response. Three semi-active damping modes (A-1, A-2, and A-3), as well as three manual setting modes, are available to riders (M-1, M-2, M-3). This bike has an automated way that is enabled; the system continuously adjusts rebound and compression damping to meet current running circumstances that ensure that the most optimum settings are constantly in use.
The new 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike has both the front fork and rear shock have manual settings that enable precise electronic compression and rebound damping adjustments. The bike has its ultra-compact 55.3-inch wheelbase. The Yamaha MT-10 SP uses an aluminum Deltabox frame adapted from the YZF-R1 superbike to provide a lightweight and responsive chassis built for agility.
An all-new 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike is suitable for best cornering performance; the frame features a strength-rigidity balance created exclusively for the MT-10 and utilizes the engine as a stressed member of the frame. Yamaha’s sophisticated Brake Control (BC) System which was developed on racetracks worldwide, works in tandem with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) to reduce brake slip while braking aggressively or on less-than-ideal terrain. Exceptional braking force and control are provided by radial-mount, four-piston front calipers, sintered brake pads, massive 320mm front discs and 220mm rear discs which are mated to high-specification braking components. Braided steel brake lines are standard on the new MT-10 SP that provide an even greater feel at the lever and increased fade resistance in track conditions and harsh temperatures.
The sports bike is suitable for agile handling and suspension. The MT-10 SP rides on lightweight five-spoke aluminum wheels. Bridgestone BattlaxHypersport S22 tires are designed exclusively for the MT-10 SP with a front tire measuring 120/70ZR17 and a rear tire measuring 190/55ZR17. They provide chassis-matched handling and grip.
Additional Features
An all-new 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP Powerful Sports Bike has a compact nose assembly, twin-eye mono-focus LED headlights and LED position lights above the headlights to combine to minimize overhang and provide a sleek commanding look. An even bright beam with softer light at the margins is projected by separate high and low beam components which give outstanding illumination. Full LED taillights and turn signals are also included.
The bike has a stripped-down look achieved by eliminating unnecessary bodywork elements, sharpening the nose assembly, and aiming attention on the pure mechanical beauty of the muscular engine and compact frame. The next-generation MT maintains its reputation as the most distinctive and aggressively styled motorcycle in their category. In addition to the stunning and unique Liquid Metal/Raven color scheme. The new MT-10 SP features a striking polished aluminum swingarm complete color-matched lower fairing and braided steel brake lines as standard that distinguishes it as the ultimate ‘Master of Torque.’ The MT-10 SP is pre-programmed and ready to use. It’s excellent for installing various Genuine Yamaha accessories, including windscreens, chassis protection and other items, thanks to the exposed hardware. A standard 12V DC power outlet can charge your mobile devices or other electronic gadgets.
