I would like to hear if anyone has fixed the awful yamaha standard seat with out buying the comfort version ???
I have owned over 50 yamaha's and over 100 bikes in my time, yes I am old, but I am commuting 500 miles a week and the seat is absolutely terrible.
Yes it's like a plank but thats not...
Over the weekend I cut 1 inch of each end of the bars and for me its much better
I found the bars a bit too wide, it was hard to weave in and out of the traffic as the mirrors seem to same height as some cars / vans. Also with standard wide bars the wind catches you more.
I also had to chop off...
MT 09 The Verdict - I just got off riding a 17 year old bike and on to a new one and Wow it's easy to ride even some of my steadier mates could ride this bike quite fast it goes into corners like a 2 stroke with nearly zero engine braking.
The ABS only kicked in once surprisingly on the back...
Hi from Slovakia
