Welcome, from just down the road by the M54. If you new to biking or the area there a a couple or of bike meets close to you. Thurs at the Raven Prees Heath, Tue Montford bridge cafe, Bridgenorth Quatt cafe usually there's bikes there most days, watch out for the mobile hairdryers they really...

There's more details in this thread and photos of what the problem is, which is basically the studs that hold the lower handle bar risers / clamps can come loose and fall out leading to loss of steering. http://mt09.motorcycle-talk.com/forum/mt-09-tracer-technical/4119-recall-mt09-tracer.html

A pic I borrowed from some where else, the owner said he was cornering at 50 mph when the stud fell out.

Looks like the recalls are in the UK post, pinched photo from somewhere else.

Same with mine takes miles and miles before it goes down on the gauge, Tend to get 175 miles before the reserve flashes. If going on a long journey would use one trip meter for petrol and the second trip meter for actual journey mileage.

Welcome, I bought the tracer variant because the way it handles and the larger fuel tank than the naked mt-09, a great bike easy to handle and goes around bends easy.

Especially when filtering.

Hope so, heated grips to sort out next and maybe an air cushion or something for the seat.

A very rough measure around 980 mm give or take a bit.

Very low for me in 6 months 1250 miles.

Top box is a Kappa / Give 48N, panniers are the Shad 36, the white marks on the side rail is polish as they panniers where a tight fit. The panniers came with a spare lock which I assume is so that you can change a shad top box to use the same key as the panniers.

Will put some up in a while for you.

Just fitted some, sods law they were not that cheap when I ordered mine. They are a good strong case, when you come to fit the brackets on it's easier if you loosen the foot peg hangers as well, though these on mine were loctited on.

Many years ago I used to only use one super market petrol as it was on my door step. I ended up breaking down with water in the petrol tank. Never used that supermarket for fuel since, with the bikes I mainly use branded stations, one car however did not like shell petrol as it always pinked...

59 here the riding position helps with the bad back, wrists and arthritis.

Not very good looks dull and drab like military vehicles, the blue is good, though the best is red.

Had a look at mine earlier, looks easier just to undo the nuts and re-loctite them, rather than replacing the risers.

Picked this up on the tracer page of Facebook, if it's true it looks like there's going to be a recall on the triple cylinder 900's. In that the lower part of the handle bar retainers have to much paint on them and allows the nuts to come loose. From the Asia web page details of the recall are...

The one problem you will have is the head light as that will need changing to one that dips to the left and not the right.

60 mm extenders for me as well off ebay, just unscrew the mirror off the riser posts and screw in the extenders, mirrors stick out roughly in line with the end of the handle bars. Mirror Extensions Black 60mm & 100mm for 580400 & 580402 (Per 4) | eBay
