suspension

Ehhh, uhmm, well i went to dealership for 6k service and this happened....... her indoors doesn't even know yet :(. Arriving 2nd week in June, in black,..... the lure of the dark side is strong!! :cool: On a side note, Tracer never put a foot wrong, if you sort out the suspension and the seat...

First run out on the new tracer this aft and i am pleased with my choice even though i didnt go over 5000 rpm which is still 80 mph,on the bumpy twistie roads i think i could have got the tracer out of shape if i had gone much quicker,after my next ride i will have a play with the suspension as...

Hello everyone ! Reporting as a new proud owner of matte gray 2016 MT 09. For some time following this forum. I wanted this bike when it came out in 2013, in the meantime I was the owner of Ducati Monster 796 ABS and although I really liked the bike, that was not it. Ducs have a great sound...

Just joined up, now I've chopped my MT-07 in for a more, ahem, grown-up machine - 2015 model with "free" Akra pipe. Picked it up from On Yer Bike on Friday. That extra cylinder and a few more cc's certainly certainly makes a big difference over the smaller bike! The riding position suits my...

Hi guys. Just wondering where is the place to set up my suspension in Melbourne. Any riders from Melbourne? If so it will be a great help. Cheers

Hey! New user here, i'll receive the 07 on september, Race Blue with ABS was not in stock so i'll have to wait. One thing that i particularly liked on the 09 was the front suspension, in gold and blue colour, all the 07 have this black plastic, so how about doing some vinyl on them? Let me...

Hi guys. MT-07 owner and loving that (about to have the suspension uprated today) and probably about to change my 1050 Speed Triple for an MT-09. After 4 years of Triumph ownership I've come to realise that it's now just too big and heavy for the type of riding I like to do (A roads and twisty...

I have had my 09 for over a year now and I am slowly getting it to a great bike, so far the suspension has been changed to Ohlin’s rear and Andreani front cartridges and all set up by FTR Suspension. H & M quick shifter, a great sounding Leo Vinci full exhaust, and Pirelli Supercorsa’s. The...

Hello folks, I'm Matt from Doncaster UK and at the moment I ride a Street Triple R, but it's not the most comfortable of things on longer rides and a recent 4 day weekend pointed out that it is pretty limited for carrying luggage or a pillion. Both together means the pillion wears a rucksack. I...

Just a quick post to let everyone up north that I have had my bike suspension and wheel alignment set up by Weardale Racing,I was going to go down the route of getting some new suspension for the MT but after talking to Ian he suggested setting the bike up for my weight and...

Hi all. I have a Tracer with a topbox and sidecases. In a month I'll be driving a longer trip with the panniers fully loaded and with a passenger. So far I've tightended the front suspension preload and rebound a bit, and adjusted the rebound on the rear shock. The settings are nice enough now...

Have read so many things about how bad suspension is on the 09,so took mine yesterday to mh racing to set it up for my weight.Will see how things go over next few weeks.

Hi. So i have spent a couple of Days surfing around various forums and threads about the setting on the mt-09. But i still have the same question and it may very well be beacause of my stupidity but here it goes: what should i set my front suspension to as i weigh 105 kg +gear, aprox 115...

Well that's that plan foiled, i was going to take a ride out to MCT Suspension tomorrow to have a look see & a chat about options for suspension on the Tracer, it appears that they don't open Saturdays so that's that, guess i'll have to find someplace else to go, can't waste riding time what...

Hi all We are all aware of the suspension shortcoming on the MT, and many a discussion has been had by me and many others. to throw a further item in the ring that works out cheaper than Maxton is something that appears to do the same as the Maxton set up with a cartridge on the front and...

My Tracer is currently at the factory suspension settings but sometimes i find it a bit hard and find it 'skips' over bumps. Do any of you guys find the same and what have you set you suspension to? I will try the factory 'soft' settings and see if that helps but to be honest i don't know a lot...

This might sound like a stupid question, but I read over and over again. People saying that when they sorted the suspension on these bikes that it was a "night and day difference" I haven't done mine yet. So I'd like to know in specifics what did a new suspension fix that was wrong with the...

very nice.....
