2023 Yamaha NIKEN GT Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits
Leaning Multi Wheel (LMW) technology
The NIKEN GT’s advanced leaning multi wheel (LMW) design delivers an exciting and con dent cornering experience.

7-inch TFT Meter
The large 7-inch full-colour TFT meter feature a high luminosity display that provides you with clear and easy to read information about real-time running conditions. You have the choice of three different screen layouts, each with its own distinctive style to match individual preferences and different riding conditions.

Enabled for full-map Garmin Navigation* that can make every journey easier – while texts can be displayed when your NIKEN GT is parked. (* Full-map Garmin Navigation requires a subscription service agreement and is not ordered in all countries. Some navigation features are not available in all countries, please check with Garmin for availability. ** Requires Bluetooth connected headset linked to the NIKEN GT. Headset not included.)
Specifically developed 890cc CP3 EU5 engine
NIKEN GT is powered by a version of our 890cc CP3 EU5 engine that has been developed exclusively for this unique Sport Tourer. Although similar to the design used on the MT-09 and TRACER 9, the NIKEN GT engine has increased crankshaft mass for stronger performance at lower rpm and more effective engine braking.
Easy, one-handed windscreen adjustment
For increased riding comfort the NIKEN GT features a new windscreen that lowers a total of 70mm height adjustment to suit different riding styles and physiques. Its special aerodynamic design distributes air evenly to prevent the build-up of low pressure behind the rider for a stable and comfortable ride.
Redesigned comfort seat
The new seat has a revised shape and different padding thickness around the rider’s inner thigh area, giving easier ground access and making getting on or o more comfortable.
