It's a list of the top european bike sales and though most of them are scooters, a few bikes make the list including...
Yep, you guessed it, our beloved MT09...
Last week I installed Kev's O2 controller right after getting the Tracer from the dealer and riding it home for 95 km's through the pouring rain...
So, can't really say something about the bike before the controller (didn't really experienced any annoying snatchiness, many talk about)
but with...
2008 I traded in an R6 to get my current CBR600RR.
15000 miles later, its been all over the Alps with me, but I havent been on tour this year, and the bike just seems to be sat in my garage. The weather in the north of the UK doesnt help, nor do dangerous inattentive car drivers.
And at 62, I am...
Picked up my grey year old MT09 a week ago.
I had been watching it in my local bike shop for a while and finally decided to sell my TL1000S so I could buy it..........thankfully the bike shop had not advertised it beyond their website as I am sure it would have sold quickly otherwise with all...
hello all just ordered a mt09 tracer in red, picking it up thursday, i took out a demo bike today, returned back to the shop and part exed my tuono. :)
hi all , just a quickie , had first service and the mechanic said that he had adjusted the clutch , ok no big dramas . the other night whilst cleaning the MT I noticed the adjuster on the lever and was a bit surprised to see how much of the adjuster has been used so far !! (see photo ) has...
I have had my 09 for over a year now and I am slowly getting it to a great bike, so far the suspension has been changed to Ohlin’s rear and Andreani front cartridges and all set up by FTR Suspension. H & M quick shifter, a great sounding Leo Vinci full exhaust, and Pirelli Supercorsa’s. The...
Well sorry to say I just couldn't get on with the MT09 anymore, I brought a 64 plate with 847 miles on the clock on the 2/6/15 from a local bike shop in very standard trim, that standard the previous owner had left the sticker on the tank and the suspension was still set in bouncy castle mode...
Hi all my fellow MT fans, long time since I've stopped by.
Well I've finally taken the plunge and splashed the cash on an aftermarket exhaust and as much as I wanted to save money and go with the Akra carbon racing line, I also wanted to stay legal and get a certified legal system so went with...
Just a quick post to let everyone up north that I have had my bike suspension and wheel alignment set up by Weardale Racing,I was going to go down the route of getting some new suspension for the MT but after talking to Ian he suggested setting the bike up for my weight and...

Hello all, moocher here. I collected the Tracer on 9th July, three dry days helped me put 415 miles on the clock and now we are in for a wet week so it'll stay in the garage for a bit. I am impressed with the stability and handling over these cracked, lumpy, pot-holed roads. The fuelling seems...
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.
