    Speed wobble

    The speed wobble is caused by the air flow of the screen. When my tracer was standard I had a slight wobble at high speed, then I put a givi screen on and had very bad wobbles at about 120. I then fitted a steering damper and a powerbronze sports screen, then there was no wobble at any speed. I...

    Hi folks, been a cruiser rider for years and decided that I fancied a change. Sat on the MT09 and thought it was superb. Took it out and was blown away by its agility and speed (not surprising since I have only ever ridden cruisers). Graeme

    Speed Triple to MT-09

    Hi guys. MT-07 owner and loving that (about to have the suspension uprated today) and probably about to change my 1050 Speed Triple for an MT-09. After 4 years of Triumph ownership I've come to realise that it's now just too big and heavy for the type of riding I like to do (A roads and twisty...

    Bridgestone BT30

    Just a quick one... Anyone tried a pair of BT30s on an MT yet? Hear BT 023 fitted as a pair can cause the bike to be less stable at speed.. I know the Road 3and 4 are getting lots of good reviews. Just interested to hear anything on the 30s..

    Best and Worst MPG from your bike?

    I was just reviewing my fuelly figures and I seem to be averaging 48 MPG. However.... I've managed to get a best of 86 MPG on a rainy day when I put it in B mode and ended up on a huge stretch of motorway roadworks which limited me to 50mph because of average speed cameras and I've managed a...
