    New 2017 mt09

    Ride it first and then decide if you still want to buy it... as you are an owner of 2015 model, think that the gen2 is equipped with the completely uneccesary imo TC.. when i'd ridden the 2016 model, TC had very bad influence when accelerate.. no more spinnings etc when the cutting of engine...

    Battery?

    YTZ10X is the type of the standard yasa battery which is a japanese product. MT-09 allthough has enough space in the battery holder to put in the larger YTZ12X battery of yasa. The stronger battery is "tailored" for MT-09s when the foam-"pillow" is removed from its place and provides easier...

    Jerez GP Circuit Track Event.

    That's great! The speed limiter will -for sure- cut some of happiness and joy when running at 225 on a straight tarmac suitable for speed 300++ but it is enough for enjoying turning in the curves of Jerez cirquit.. Useful experience for a rider... don't miss it!

    Battery?

    Keep in mind you need a charger for gel batteries.. My bike is needed every day riding to recharge battery during its 3rd winter.. So i ride it every shiny/cloudy day and let it parked when is raining/snowing. If i'd had let it "sleep" for long period of time it will needed a new battery for...

    2017 mt_09

    Happy new year!! Slipper clutch and quick shifter are optional for the price of 500 euros and not std.. Forks has got compession dumping in left leg and rebound in the right... New look seems familiar.. if it is offered at the same price as 1st gen it will be one reason for some of us to "update"..

    Throttle body sync problem.

    As i remember when my mechanic had synchronized the injection bodies of my 9, when the engine was running in idle rpm the liquid was down. By opening the throttle grip the level of liqiud in tube was growing up but not equally. Then he had been turning the screws in or out until the liquid was...

    bad vibes

    When you had adjust chain slack? In most cases the "speed wobling" happened when the swing arm's adjusters were not equally balanced... there is a big topic for this phenomenon actually. So you shouldn't trust the swingarm's lines and it's better to measure same points of reference on both sides...

    Loose Screen Adjusters

    That trick seems to me more helpfull when change screen's positions.. as sticky silicon is for "planting" the screen "permanently".

    Good review for the Avons allthough keep in mind that PR4s are good even for off-road use...

    kawasaki rear shock

    The reservoir its not remoted but a part of the frame of zx10r rear shock which must be facing downwards when instaled. you don't need to cut any plastic allthough some had done that when this modification was started to appear.. There is no need to take the tank off at all !!! Start by...

    Stock fork oil on MT-09, what SAE number?

    Standard fork oil might be SAE 5w... according many riders who have put stiffer front springs you could use 5w for road and 7,5w for track. Thicker oil "works" only with standard springs (75kg/cm).. Some members walked the same route as you (2 right cartridges) but there aren't so many feedback...

    MT09 2015 hard start and stall

    Welldone! So, as you have found a skilled and competent mechanic who knows how to do the job, you might have to trust him and don't ever change him. The funny thing of the story is that in some small countries are some brilliant mechanics... otherwise it is a matter of luck and most of the bikes...

    Sounds like Cam Chain Tensioner maybe?

    Is this a good trade in price from 2015 09. to 2016 09 tracer

    So, as you don't carry a pilion there is no need to change it.. MT-09 is at least 20kg lighter than the Tracer and that means a lot to some when some other couldn't (under)stand it. If a rider get used the MT-09 then he realizes that Tracer is some kind of "flat" when openning the throtle. Also...

    Is this a good trade in price from 2015 09. to 2016 09 tracer

    Hi Davie the answer is simple: If you like solo riding your MT-09 is the best option, faster, quicker and more fun. If you used to carry a pilion and looking for dual-riding on road "explorer" then Tracer is your bike. Take care that except the extra money if you ride and find the Tracer boring...

    MT09 2015 hard start and stall

    You're welcome! Try premium quality high octane petrol if its not hard to find.. otherwise the best regular 95 you can get. Hope that injection-synchro will solve your problem... Where are you living/riding?

    MT09 2015 hard start and stall

    Your engine doesn't work properly. That could happens from many reasons but mostly caused from bad fueling.. maybe a false TPS or missadjusted injection or dirty air-filter. The fact that your engine usually hits 105 must allert you. That has never had happened in my MT allthough i'm riding in...
