On the \u003cstrong\u003eMT-07\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eFZ-07\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eTracer 7\u003c\/strong\u003e, the throttle bodies sit visibly between the frame rails and the engine, and the OEM cover — where one is fitted — has a functional but unremarkable finish. This replacement plate cleans up that area without touching any mechanical components: it fits over the same mounting points as the original and requires no modification to the airbox, throttle body, or fuel system. Riders fit it for purely cosmetic reasons, or to replace an OEM piece that has been scratched, cracked, or lost during previous maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Covers and Why It Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn naked bikes like the \u003cstrong\u003eMT-07\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eFZ-07\u003c\/strong\u003e, the engine is the centerpiece of the visual design. Yamaha's intent with these models was to leave the mechanical architecture exposed, which means anything in the mid-section of the bike is visible at eye level when the bike is on a paddock stand or parked next to another machine. The throttle body area specifically draws attention because it sits at the heart of the engine bay. A clean, well-finished cover in this location has a disproportionate visual impact relative to the small surface area it occupies. The \u003cstrong\u003eTracer 7\u003c\/strong\u003e carries a fairing panel that partially conceals this area from the front, but the cover remains visible from the sides, particularly at low viewing angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment — Compatible Yamaha Models\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis cover plate is designed for all variants of the \u003cstrong\u003eYamaha MT-07 and FZ-07\u003c\/strong\u003e from \u003cstrong\u003e2013 through 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e, spanning the original CP2-engined generation through to the current model. It also fits the \u003cstrong\u003eTracer 7\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eTracer 7 GT\u003c\/strong\u003e from \u003cstrong\u003e2021 to 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the \u003cstrong\u003eXSR700\u003c\/strong\u003e from \u003cstrong\u003e2018 to 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e, all of which share the same engine and frame architecture. The mounting boss positions and throttle body geometry did not change across these production years, so a single part number covers the full range. If your bike has aftermarket intake components or a non-standard airbox setup, verify that the OEM cover position is still accessible before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFitting the cover plate is a straightforward task that does not require draining fuel, disconnecting any electrical connectors, or removing the throttle bodies. It mounts to existing bolt positions on the airbox or frame using the hardware already present on the bike, or the supplied fixings where included. The job typically takes under twenty minutes and requires only basic metric tools. No torque-critical fasteners are involved; the cover is a cosmetic panel, not a structural component, and standard snug-tight torque on M6 bolts is appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this affect airflow or throttle response?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The \u003cstrong\u003eThrottle Body Cover Plate\u003c\/strong\u003e is a cosmetic panel mounted to the outside of the assembly. It does not contact the throttle bodies themselves, does not restrict the air intake path, and has no effect on fuelling or throttle response. The engine management system, sensors, and injectors remain completely unaffected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it fit the MT-07 SP or the Moto Cage edition?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The SP variant and other limited editions based on the standard \u003cstrong\u003eMT-07\u003c\/strong\u003e platform share the same engine bay and mounting architecture. The cover fits all trim levels built on the CP2 frame across the \u003cstrong\u003e2013 to 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e production run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat if mine gets scratched — can I repaint it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover is typically supplied in an ABS plastic or anodized aluminum finish depending on the variant. ABS panels can be sanded, primed, and painted with standard motorcycle-grade aerosol. Anodized aluminum versions can be stripped and re-anodized, though most riders in that situation simply replace the part, given its low cost relative to a professional refinish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lean Angle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58747072217469,"sku":null,"price":39.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0783\/2445\/files\/Sb79ed668cc2e45d0ac9e1ce0176f44act.avif?v=1790266254","url":"https:\/\/leananglemoto.com\/products\/throttle-body-cover-plate-for-yamaha-mt-07-fz-07-tracer-7-2013-to-2025","provider":"Lean Angle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
