    What would you do?

    Here's my dilemma, spent 6 months getting my license, then waiting for ages for the MT to be delivered, for my wife now wants me to sell the bike. The reason for this, since I started my license training, one friend came off his bike snapped his arm, whilst already disabled in his other arm from...

    Do your handlebars move ????

    Mine where, a bit too loose and got tightened up on the service, a lot better since.

    Crashes

    I've noticed the more the MT gets broken in, the more it wants to wheelie every where! I was riding the other night and came around a fast left hand bend, coming out, full throttle over a small bridge, hit the mid point and the front wheel shot well in the air in third, not a pleasant...

    Acerbis X-tarmac Hand Gaurds

    If anybody got a set of these, the light in the right hand has failed already! Acerbis have just come back to advise, they have identified an issue with the light and have re-engineered them and sent me a new set in the post, lets see if they are brighter.

    Where can i get a delivery date?

    I feel your pain, it seems so long waiting for it. If that's the date, I would guess you will have it then or just before. You won't sleep the night before! ;)

    Where can i get a delivery date?

    I sat down with my dealer and he had a full list of colour and abs non abs list, with eta dates on. I picked the one I wanted and it was a week early, they even knew when it hit the docks in London. I would push them to give an eta of your bike, they must know.

    Yamalube?

    The other day, I noticed the oil level was below the marker, so I called my dealer and he advised the oil was semi synthetic 10w40 and putoline make. I asked why they don't use yamalube and they said you don't have to for warranty and it's better oil anyway. I'm not sold and going to drop it...

    Acerbis X-tarmac Hand Gaurds

    Behind the head lamp is a connector for the side bulb, I fed the wires from the guards, through the same route as the others, made them together, then just used a splice connector onto the wires for the side light, sprayed it it with acf50, to stop moisture and corrosion in the future and then...

    Acerbis X-tarmac Hand Gaurds

    Thanks, yes, smaller thread base unit and the maximum spacer for the hand grips, fits in minutes, longer to wire into the side light! The current unit, in the end of the bars needs a big hex, but comes out very easy once loose.

    Acerbis X-tarmac Hand Gaurds

    Acerbis X-tarmac Hand Guards Just fitted these to the MT, been after a pair that will look good on the bike and I think, these go well. The LED strip isn't super bright, but suppose the additional light helps on the road!

    DIY Antitheft floor anchor

    few swings of a sledge hammer and that will snap the bolts clean off, hence why ground anchors are angled to deflect blows etc and have much stronger m12 + bolts with them. heres mine

    price of first service

    I called three days before collection, as I needed to know what security it had to take the insurance out. This is when they advised of the built in mobiliser and Datatag. I was assured it would be done, but it definitely hasn't!. Service wise they said it would be in, when I ordered the bike...

    price of first service

    Don't know how Yamaha can say that tricky, it's in their warranty book, it would appear the same with the datatag issue, the dealer does it if they want, Yamaha should send a clear message out on these types of points. Not well they might, but might not, depends, what a load of rubbish. I'll...

    price of first service

    No, getting close, but if they don't buck up, I have a contact in robinsons who own them and they are already aware of the poor service(poor buying experience), trying to give them a chance to redeem or I'll have a riot!
