Hello MT owners, I recently purchased a new MT-10 2022 and absolutely love it from a riding perspective. Honestly though, I'm really not won over on the front headlight looks. I feel as though the headlights fairing just seems unfinished somehow and actually prefer the older style MT-10. For this reason, I've been experimenting with designing my own headlight shroud and wanted to get peoples opinions. What are your thoughts? ![]() ![]() With Shroud  Without  |

Interesting. I did wonder if the previous MT-10 shroud would fit. I’ll have to take a look to see if the the screw positions are in the same
location

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t fit without some modifications. I would definitely be interested if you 3D print one that would fit or did something to look like it. Here’s what I posted in another thread when the new gen was first announced to get an idea of what it would look like. it's really growing on me. I've added the winglets under the headlights from the old gen, removed the license plate bracket and mirrors and I'm liking the look of it a lot.

The headlight bracket is different and has no mounts for the chin spoiler |

Hi semprenissart, can you please share pictures from front with added headlight cowling from older version? I only did the side version. I don't have photoshop, I just use a photo editor and "cloned it" from the old to the new version. It worked out well on the side view. I'll try to do it on the front view when I get back from work but I don't know if it'll work using this method... EDIT: I tried and can't really do it without something like photoshop. Also it's hard to see the "chin" from the front view in pictures even on the 1st gen  |

I just came across this thread wondering the same thing. The 2022 MT-10 headlight look like they just kind of threw two projectors on the front and decided to call it a day. So hear me out. What if you design a shroud that is grated so from the front the headlights are almost hidden until the light is on and shines through the grate. Just an idea

Face pareidolia We tend to see faces in inanimated objects. And the front end of modern motorcycle or cars are evidence for that. Yamaha know this, and have designed the front end with this in mind. Utilizing the headlights low and high beam as eyes and the tip of the shroud as nose. In 2015 with the launch of the new R1, Yamaha changed the design language. Instead of using low beam and high beam as eyes, they started using daytime running lights as eyes instead. Relegating the high and low beams as projectors below the jaw instead.  The same process went with Tracer 700/7 in 2020  Mt07 and Mt09 in 2021   And Tracer 9 in 2021  R7 in 2021  This new MT10 design, suffer abit of this old/young lady illusion  Some of you that use high low beams as eyes, will see a half face with eyebrows and hat on. I who use the daytime running light as eyes. I see an angry mewtwo from this franchise called Pokèmon. And I love it. |

One of the rider of MT-10 SP 2023 from UK, recently added front cowling. See some pics below.. looks pretty good to me. Pyramid makes similar front cowling. Puig spoiler makes it look more worst (just my opinion..)    I like it. Do you have a link for purchase? |
