Yamaha MT-07 tyre FAQs
What tyre size does a Yamaha MT-07 use?+
The Yamaha MT-07 uses 120/70-17 at the front and 180/55-17 at the rear. Check the size on your current tyres or in the owner's manual before you order.
How much do tyres for a Yamaha MT-07 cost?+
120/70-17 fronts start at R1 435 and 180/55-17 rears start at R1 820, per tyre in stock today. The cheapest front and rear together cost R3 255. The cheapest matching pair of one tyre model is the Vredestein Centauro ST at R3 255. Fitting is usually extra. Prices change weekly.
Can I fit a different tyre size on my Yamaha MT-07?+
Stick to the sizes the manufacturer approves for your bike and wheels. A different width or profile changes how the bike steers and leans, and can upset the ABS and traction control. Never mix radial and bias-ply tyres unless the manufacturer allows it.
Should I replace both Yamaha MT-07 tyres at the same time?+
Not always. Rear tyres usually wear out before fronts, so many riders replace the rear more often. If you replace only one, fit the same tyre model as the other end so the pair is designed to work together.
