MT 09 SP -
Hi everyone,
I recently bought an MT-09 SP and noticed a distinct metallic noise or resonance coming from the engine area. It's most noticeable at certain RPM ranges, especially while riding and applying light throttle.
The bike runs perfectly fine otherwise. There are no error codes, no loss of power, and no other symptoms that would suggest something is wrong. I asked the dealer and service department about it, and they told me it's completely normal and simply a characteristic of the CP3 three-cylinder engine.
I'm curious if other MT-09 SP owners, especially 2025 models, have noticed a similar metallic sound or resonance. If so, where did it seem to come from, and did it turn out to be completely normal?
I'd appreciate any feedback, experiences, or even videos for comparison.
Thanks! 🏍️
