    Suspension Upgrades:- Products in the Market?

    Planning a suspension upgrade. Thinking the Hyperpro Street Box was my best option until I saw that I could buy a Hyperpro Progressive Spring kit plus Nitron NTR N1 shock/spring for slightly less money (about £10 cheaper). Any thoughts? How do the Hyperpro and Nitron shocks compare? I weigh 75kg...

    MT 70 Comparison MPG?

    Mainly urban and semi rural commuting with occasional longer runs. Still in the 'running in' period (on about 715 miles). My last 2 fills, to brim have been 60.6 and 64 mpg. Coming from an inline 4 600 (CBR 600F4i), it seems very impressive, particularly the ability to travel 130 miles on only...

    Great, thank you, so its intended state is loose?

    Disc / Loose Washer Behind Throttle Grip?

    Taking my 2016 MT07 for its first 600 mile service next week and meaning to ask them about a loose washer / disc that moves around behind the throttle grip. I presume it shouldn't be like this? Should it be attached to something? It would be useful to know before I speak to the garage. Many...

    Hands up who started on a scooter/ moped

    Yep, did a CBT, ended up not using it for nearly 2 years (finally losing my work parking permit), bought a Honda PCX 125 (pretty nice as 125 scooters go...), found it too slow to be safe on my commute, did another CBT and DAS, bought a Honda CBR600F, just replaced it with an MT07 to overcome...

    Got to ride my dream bike

    Many schools have far more unrestricted bikes than restricted ones as far more people are doing the full DAS at 24+. I'd be surprised if it was a restricted one

    Auxiliary Power Connector Plug

    Perfect :) thank you. It pains me to remove loads of things unnecessarily, struggle to get it back together and risk breaking clips etc.

    Auxiliary Power Connector Plug

    Thanks, I saw this, it still doesn't explain whether I need to lift / remove the tank etc. Can anyone confirm please?

    Auxiliary Power Connector Plug

    Can anyone provide any guidance on how best to access and identify this connector please? Do you need to lift the tank? Is it accessible on the left hand side in amongst the wiring without removing anything? Many thanks, Jon

    Mivv Oval Titanium Fitting Question / Observation

    I've now achieved a similar fix to you, not quite 12mm but still a gap at all times :) I've got the baffle and DB killer in and its just the right amount of rumble for me I think!

    Mivv Oval Titanium Fitting Question / Observation

    That's very helpful! Was starting to think about spacers but hadn't thought about putting them behind the bracket and that looks perfect.

    Mivv Oval Titanium Fitting Question / Observation

    Hi, Fitted a MiVV Oval Titanium exhaust last night - not even had the chance to run it up to temperature yet! It all seems to be fitted neatly. My only concern / observation is that while the bike is on its side stand, the end can (towards its end but before the cap) lightly touches against...

    Brand New Bike - Numpty Question!

    Yes, that's it! I was reliably informed that it is dust filtering for the air intake. Maybe looks more evident on a night fluro bike because of the pastel grey tank.

    Brand New Bike - Numpty Question!

    I have bought a Mivv Oval with Titanium can and carbon cap. I've not had the chance to fit it yet and going away for the week so it will have to wait a little while. Seems quite subtle but considerably less like a hair dryer than standard... There are some quite good static and drive by videos...

    Brand New Bike - Numpty Question!

    Yes, it must be about that long. Conscious that it not only looks a little unsightly but also retains water like a sponge... I'm just going to leave it alone, focus on getting my Mivv exhaust and crash mushrooms on :)

    Brand New Bike - Numpty Question!

    Picked up my brand new MT07 in Night Fluro this morning :) Very different from my CBR600F (which also conveniently I sold privately today too :) ) On the offside of the bike, somewhat below the seat is some grey foam/sponge material. I'm guessing this is transit type packing material? I just...

    Wanted: MT07 ABS (Private Buyer) - What Have You?

    I've scheduled it for the new 2016 '16' registration plate in the UK on 1st March. This will give me some time to shift my current bike (CBR600F) and for the weather to improve! I'll continue to ride the CBR in the interim...

    :DThanks for the interest guys, I've ended up putting in an order for a 2016 bike in Night Fluro :)

    Wanted: MT07 ABS (Private Buyer) - What Have You?

    I'm suffering neck and shoulder issues and need to move to a more upright bike. I have test ridden quite a few bikes and the MT07 fits the bill :)
