Honda Wave RSX FI vs Yamaha MT-09

The Honda Wave RSX FI (2026) and the Yamaha MT-09 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Wave RSX FI is a cub / underbone with 109 cc, 8.7 hp and unlisted weight; the Yamaha MT-09 is a naked bike with 890 cc, 117.3 hp and 193 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 49.5 hp/ton versus 437.8 hp/ton. On this measure the Yamaha MT-09 is 784% ahead.

0-100 km/h (speedometer): Honda Wave RSX FI not reached (top simulated speed 88 km/h), Yamaha MT-09 3.11 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 18.5 m for the Honda Wave RSX FI (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 17.3 m for the Yamaha MT-09 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Yamaha MT-09 stops 1.2 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 88 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 199 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda Wave RSX FI and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Yamaha MT-09. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
