Can anyone verify the front fork stanchion tube size for 2018 MT-07?
I am needing replacement stanchions / tubes that are bent. I have seen a few for sale on ebay and other sites. They are showing 41MM diameter, and either 577MM or 575MM length. 2MM can be a big difference.
I have not removed...
Hi folks, I was reading the post from bluemachine about the hyper pro lowering kit (front and rear). I found a retailer here in the US. decent prices. They could do the install for me as well and I was wondering how long that type of service might be. so that I have a good ball park estimate...
Hi, I'm in a quandary, a dealer is selling the 2016 MT 09 for about the same price as the MT 07 (£6234 OTR) and I am not sure which way to go? They are doing this because a new 2017 MT 09 is going on sale in December.
I was unsure if I wanted an MT 07 or an MT 09 in the first place, now I don't...

Hello,

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 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...
I have seen a couple of threads now from owners around the 7-8k mileage mark - one being that the front suspension was bottoming out one of the forks needed replacement and on another the rear suspension was rusting and again needed replacing under warranty. I understand that some new cars/bike...
Hi guys,
as I am on the heavy side and like to ride with my girl as well, I tend to bring the bike suspension to its limits.
What suspension upgrades would you recommend? Is there a noticable difference? How about value for money?
Thnx
