Here's another positive review of Simon at S-Tech's work. I dropped my bike into him a couple of weeks ago for the full flash and dyno work, because after fitting an Arrow full system it really wasn't running at all properly. He also fitted a K+N air filter I supplied. When I picked it up that...

Hi, I've got the genuine Yamaha accessory tail tidy on my 2017. You have to remove the wiring for the number plate lamp when you remove the rear mudguard monstrosity. Then it's cut down to a set length and new connectors have to be fitted so the lamp can be remounted in the new unit. There's...

Because I have an immaculate spare set of Brembo M4s sitting around doing nothing. Plus, my usual answer to "Why do?" is "Why not?" :-)

Anyone fitted them to a 2017 model yet? If so what size spacers did you need, if you needed any at all?

I'm going the Maxton route later this year. I ride fairly hard and find the standard forks and shock tie the bike in knots when I'm pushing through some of the local roads I ride regularly.

If you mean radiator guards I fitted an early (2014) model R+G rad guard to my 2017 model and it went straight on with no mods needed.

That is the SW Motech pannier system, it's just been given the Yamaha Accessory name. Friend has one fitted to her MT-09 and it works very well. She has the LED Plus blinkers too but fitted to the Yamaha tail tidy and they just about go together when the blinkers are relocated closer to the...

My friend took it in to the dealership and they reset it for her. turns out the ecu registered the ignition had been turned on with a sensor disconnected when the K+N air filter was being fitted. No damage done, all reset and the bike has now been very successfully remapped by Steve Jordan...

Had a huge variety of bikes over the past 38/39 years, from Fizzies and C90s to GSXR1000, Daytona 955i, Fireblade 929, ZZR1100s, RD400s etc. I race a CBR600F steelie and the roadbike directly before the MT-09 was a 2009 Kawasaki Versys ABS Tourer I bought new and did 40K miles on. I don't do the...

Lambda sensor is fitted, I double checked that

Friend of mine dropped her 2017 MT-09 in with me this morning for fitting of the full Black Widow exhaust (with baffle in) and a K+N air filter. Everything fitted up perfectly, but on starting the engine management light stays on - she also says it splutters and farts at 2500 but that clears the...

I just spoke to R+G this evening and they confirmed they all have the same part number and fit all years.

Hi, Does anyone know if aftermarket chainguards made for 2014 to 2016 models will fit my 2017? The swingarms look the same but can never be sure with model updates. I want to get rid of the ugly cable duct chainguard as mine had a tail-tidy fitted from new. Thanks

Yes, Flitwick. I know they're good, I used to work part-time for them, :-)

I see no one likes the grey. Looks like lacquered primer to me.

Hi, Just ordered a 2017 MT-09 in blue from my local dealer. I'm fitting the Yamaha upper tail tidy, R+G crash bungs and a screen as soon as I get it home. Should have it in about 10 days, then it's time for me to run it in and get the first service out of the way before I head off for the TT.
