    CANBus ?

    anyone know if the MT09 uses a CANBus system ? trying to fit an HID kit and it keeps tripping, not blowing fuses, it just trips and I have to disconnect the power for a few seconds or if left it will come back on eventually, wondering if I need a CANBus HID kit :confused:

    injection system balancing

    does the MT09 need this done ? my Street Triple did during servicing, well it was checked and adjusted if needs be, which it did need as it was "miles out" according to the technician at Fowlers and it must have cos the bike felt much smoother when I got it back.

    Tyre question... Pilot Power 3's

    anyone else running these on their MT09 who rides at a brisk pace (like you stole it) ? I'm having a hard time with them, feel very unstable cornering and not confidence inspiring at all :/ had them on my Street Triple R and they were the dogs danglies, gripped like buggery, but not so on the MT

    wheel bearings ?

    will they be covered by the warranty ? :confused: I'm not a mechanic but it definitely feels like wheel bearing movement and a mechanic mate is going to check them later today. bike is 7 months old and done 8,500 miles

    Rear splash guard

    saw Tom's thread (on Facebook) and thought I would look for something that could be modified, found one for a Kawasaki Versys that looks pretty good (IMHO), as his is for an ER6 I figured it should be a similar fit... if not it will be made to fit :D will update when it's delivered

    Evotech rad guard

    why the feck don't they supply it with all 3 bolts of correct length ? 1 OEM bolt goes back in which is now 3 or 4mm shorter than it should be so, being the ham fisted fucker that I am, the slightest over tightening of that bolt results in a de-thread and an unsecure fan mount :( off to find the...

    start button sticking

    anyone else had this ? when I start the bike I have to push the button back to the run position or it stays on start and the starter continues to run, makes a high pitch squeel. I only noticed this today and seems to be the reason why the engine management light was coming on when I changed gear...

    wierd electrical day

    was out today and the bike started playing silly buggers, not breaking down but with the electrics. every time I changed gear the engine management light flashed and, after stopping for food, when we set off again the indicators stopped working. now home I turned the ignition off and on and the...

    more throttle adjustment ?

    other than the adjuster behind the clocks is there anywhere else on the bike for adjusting the throttle play ? I must have stretched the cable putting the heated grips on and there isn't enough adjustment to take up the slack thanks
