Nice review Donut, your lucky to have both! I too have a MT07 and would contemplate getting the MT09 at a good price but then I think that the MT07 is just a great all round bike as you suggest. I have had many bigger and more powerful bikes in the past but the MT07 just ticks all the boxes...

Also might be interested, did you have to cut the body work where the brackets fit? where did you get them from?......cheers

Please see attached picture of no damage to baffle.........excuse the slippers!

I ride my bike all year round and I have got into washing my bike off every weekend without fail. The salted roads are harsh on bikes and it doesn't matter what bikes I've had if you do not do this after a very short time the bike will suffer! Even in dry sunny conditions the salt is kicked up...

Hi, how much did you cut off?

After many months deliberating what exhaust to get, watching everyones youtube clips, reading peoples opinions on all the options out there I finally went for the Akrapovic. Had it fitted today and am so glad I did. It really does look good and sounds fantastic out on the country roads, it has a...

Yes, that was the main reason I got them as I ride all year round. First outing this morning and I can notice the difference on my fingers already.....
