Thanks for the comments Fossil. It just annoys me when these big manufacturers don't like a bit of constructive criticism
You would actually think they could use the information they gain from a forum like this to make a better product ,and without having to ask they have their very own focus group and can see what really matters to its loyal followers.
I reckon we have the MT-07 & 09 as a direct result of this type of media ... brilliant tech at the right price point.
brilliant tech... I'll just clean this coffee off the keyboard... thanks
if they fettled the suspension and put the price up a couple of hundred quid, to cover their costs, it would be "brilliant tech at the right price"
as it is WE have to source aftermarket suspension at £££'s or live with the bouncy, undersprung, poorly valved shite Yamaha gave us... I'm coming from a Street Triple R, the bike the media said was the MT09's competition, well, it's not, the Street Triple is in a different league altogether... IMHO
Not too sure what people expect when it comes to brand owners monitoring forums and social media. You write it down ... it becomes 'discoverable' ... you then gotta live with the consequences of your actions. There is no such thing as privacy. I reckon we have the MT-07 & 09 as a direct result of this type of media ... brilliant tech at the right price point. It's what we constantly talk about. I'm associated with brand protection enforcement and know the competitive nature of the manufacturers and how they police their product lines. We all should be very mindful of what we talk about as there is always an interested party looking at the current vibe.
