Hi all,
first post here, and I haven't yet introduced myself because I don't yet own an MT07! I'm thinking of switching from my ER6N, and as usual have picked the worst time of the year to go bike-hunting, as my local dealer can't get new stock until September (not that far away really).
However, they do have their demonstrator up for sale, MT07 ABS, in grey, less than 150 miles on the clock so not even run in yet(!), up for 5249UKP. I'm not in any screaming rush to buy, but it got me wondering about the pros and cons. Pro's - it's nearly new and it's discounted, cons I guess it could be a bit tatty if test riders haven't treated it with care. As for running in, how much damage could actually be caused by a handful of riders in just over 100 miles? Even if it had been thrashed (which I don't think is that likely), it's still under warranty...
Open to the floor...
