Those were only a guest’s first few minutes in Rev of Dawn; because the headlining MT Series was reserved for a dramatic entrance. The series’ creation began with the “Kodo” or soul beat that the engine would eventually emulate and connect with the ride. This beat was introduced by drums to start the experience of entering the dark side of Japan. First to be revealed were the MT-09 and MT-07 which rose from a cloud of smoke, unmissable to the sight of the crowd. Then it was the much-anticipated MT-15 at the center with the Rev of Dawn serving at its backdrop. It symbolized the arrival of a machine that will be the vessel to a new culture of torque and agility. The displacement of the MT-15 is perfect for beginning your journey into the dark side. But if you’re looking for more, Yamaha had another innovation to showcase. The MT-10, a supreme demonstration of power and torque at its finest, was also revealed.
