    Changed the chain and sprockets at 29500 miles

    Changed the original chain & sprockets last night, chain was getting tightspots, and setting the chain slack at the tight spot meant I was getting about 50mm slack at the loose spots! Used one of those cheap ebay breaker/riviter tools (about £12) and everything went well, soft link flared out...

    Soon to be MT09 owner, intro and sprocket Q

    Hi all, new to the forum, pick up my 2014 MT09 tomorrow, can’t wait :-) I am a long time Fazer 600 owner. Quick question to start though if you’ll indulge me. The bike has a new rear sprocket fitted and from what I can tell it is an increase in size. The original sprocket comes with the bike...

    Loobman fitting advisory

    The Loobman on an MT-09 needs a bit of adjustment as the swing arm design means it ends up being too far away from the sprocket I did a quick YouTube to explain where you need to change it. It's not much to do Here's the final video showing placement I chose. Not a lot of option there I...

    Cleaned chain today

    Nothing strange about cleaning the chain. I had a good go at it today removed the front sprocket cover for the first time since I owned the bike. I run with a Tutoro oiler which is a great bit of kit.I was amazed though at the amount of oily residue around the front sprocket and engine casings...

    Chain tension?

    I was riding on the highway when my chain jumped off my rear sprocket, all probally due to a way to loose chain. In the meanwhile i have tightened my chain to a reasonable tension. But i was wondering how tight my chain should be. On the tightest part it has about 1cm space and on the loosest...

    17 Tooth Front Sprocket ?

    Guys and Girls Anybody know where I can get a 17 tooth front sprocket for a MT09? I know what it does, and the implications of such a mod, but I still want to try it. Thanks all

    Speedo pick up and gearing..

    Doing a chain and sprocket change on the bike soon and was thinking of going down one on the front sprocket.. I know the speedo over reads at the mo. Am I right thinking going down one on the front will make this worse? Where does the speedo pick up its signal from? ECU or a gearbox or wheel...

    Corrosion & Build Quality

    I still love my MT07 but Christ the build quality is poor. I tried to operate the seat lock today and it was seized solid. I had to soak it in WD40 for half an hour just to get the key in, and even then it took another 10 minutes of wiggling to get it to turn. Add that to the rusted disc...

    Sprocket Ratios

    Does anyone have any experience with sprocket ratio modifications. There's a 16/43 ratio combo available on eBay. I don't even know the original ratio but would be interested in any comments. We have rediculously low speed limits in Oz and huge speeding fines but they haven't figured out a way...
