Hi there Craigieboy, What beeeeaauuuutiful mountain scenery...................... The Scottish highlands are truly a wonderful sight to behold!!! And, I seem to recall from a previous posting of yours, only a relatively short distance from where you live. Lucky lad!! And to think that the...

Hi addy, I needed to buy the RAM Double Socket Arm Long to allow me to position the Zuma GPS directly above the instrument cluster. Even then I still had to cut approximately 1/4" off one side of one end of the arm to allow a greater angle of "throw". Note that even with the longer RAM...

Hi Michelle333, Glad to read that you are enjoying your MT-07-HO. Have you made any modifications to your bike yet? Here are a couple of photographs of my MT-07-HO:- Here's wishing you safe riding. Regards, Alan ( aka Welsh Wizard )

Hi Craigieboy, Sorry, already taken........................... Thanks for your comment on the MT. Regards, Alan ( aka Welsh Wizard )

Hi Eddieh93, Thanks for your comment about the bike. OK, will see what I can knock together for you and the rest of the guys on the Forum. What specific mods are you particularly interested in. Let me know. BTW, just yesterday I fitted a Garmin Zumo 590LM GPS that I bought recently...

Hi Michelle 333, I note that like myself you are in Australia. I live in Brisbane (well Samford actually), whereabouts are you located? Also, it would appear that we have the same colour scheme MT-07 if that is a silver grey (not white) tank you have. How are you finding your MT-07...

Hi there Craigieboy, Your heart must be soaring riding through that beautiful Scottish countryside now that the sun has finally come out for you. Having said that I guess that the ambient air temperature was probably still a bit cool given that there is still snow on the peaks. Regards, Alan...

Hi Addy, That is a one very smart seat, and I'm very pleased to read your advice to Craigieboy that you find it more comfortable than either the Yamaha standard seat and their comfort seat. I have a feeling that I shall be investing in one of these Bagster seats. If you don't mind me asking...

Hi Guys, For what it is worth I have fitted a Puig belly pan (Part No. 7022C) and a pair of Puig radiator side covers (Part No. 7561C) and can report that I am very satisfied with both items. Note that I recently fitted a Puig touring screen as well, which I am also very satisfied with as I no...

Hi Eddieh93, I'm very satisfied with the Acropovic full titanium exhaust fitted to my MT-07. I love the sound of this exhaust, but more importantly the fuel/air mixing is still spot-on and that is after replacing the OEM air filter with a high flow K & N YA-6814 air filter. Regards, Alan (...

Hi Jateureka, I note that you had a Wilbers rear shock fitted to your MT-07. As I'm about to receive and fit a Wilbers Type 640 Road rear shock to my MT-07, I'd be really interested to hear what you thought of the difference in suspension performance between the Wilbers and the OEM rear shock...

G'Day Gregjet, My name is Alan (Welsh Wizard) and I live at Samford just 20kms north west of Brisbane. I recently traded in my 2006 Suzuki GSX-R750 and bought a Yamaha MT-07-HO . Although I absolutely love the MT-07 I have serious concern with both the front and rear suspension on the MT when...

Hi tw586, For what it is worth, I have an MT-07 that I am about to change out the rear shock on. I did a bit of research before hand and then decided to fit a Wilbers (German) Type 640 Road rear shock. It is currently on order from Germany. I also intend to replace the oil in the front forks...

Hi guys, I'm 69 and have ridden bikes for most of my life. Besides my MT-07 have owned the following bikes:- Triumph Tiger Cub - 200cc single BSA 500cc DBD34 Clubmans Gold Star Yamaha XJ750 Honda XR250 Yamaha FJ1200 Suzuki GSX-R750

Hi Simoncrp, Merry Christmas. I just love it here in Australia, or more specifically Brisbane in Queensland. Brisbane has a sub-tropical climate and the Brisbane winters are similar to the UK summers, i.e. blue cloudless skies, 25 degree C and almost no rain. To be honest I wouldn't want...

Rear Wheel Hugger - Pyramid Plastics Hi Simoncrp, Festive greetings to both yourself and all Forum members. As requested, here are a few photographs of my MT-07 with the Pyramid Plastics combined tyre hugger and chain guard that I recently fitted. Also worthy of note, I've also just...

Hi Simoncrp, Yes, it will. My recommendation is that you purchase and fit a Pyramid Plastics ( UK company ) combined tyre hugger and chain guard. They are are from being the cheapest out there, but they are very good quality, and the fit is absolutely spot-on. Other tyre hugger manufacturers...

Hi KevinStanley, I just love them....................... Regards, Alan (aka Welsh Wizard)

Hi Crypto, He chose the Super Corsa's because IMHO they are the stickiest tyres that money can buy. Yes, there will be some track days, and yes that is why I have a Willbers rear shock on order for the MT. Unless I am caught out, I do not intend riding in the rain, but living in Queensland...

Hi Mt. Portugal, The amount of power has nothing to do with fitting Pirelli Diablo Super Corsa SP's to your bike. It all has to do with the degree of grip that the tyres give you. And the SP's are brilliant!!!!
