    Rear hanger/footpeg

    Hi all, Recently parted with my MT09 and now have an MT10. I'm trying to get hold of a Tracer rear left hanger for the footpeg. The hangers on the back of the MT10 mean you have to be a dwarf to fit on it. The Tracer ones will fit and are longer than the standard 09 ones. I managed to find the...

    Speed cameras

    Just had a letter through the post telling me that I have been caught speeding. I think I know what happened but I am interested to see if anyone has any advice! I was on a dual carriageway, a 50mph limit. On the other carriageway, facing the other way was a speed camera van. I assumed he was...

    Wear & Tear

    Just interested in what is wearing out on your lovely MT09's. I have hit 10,000 miles this week and still have the whole winter to get through. So far the only thing (apart from tyres) that has given up on me was a clutch cable at about 6,000 miles. Has anyone replaced chain or sprockets or...

    Bloody cars

    Experienced proper road rage tonight in Southampton. LD Discovery pulled up alongside me at traffic lights. Shouting and swearing - no idea why to be honest. I let him go at the lights, pulled in behind him, and he hit his brakes so hard I could hear the abs doing its job. I had no chance and...

    Mirrors

    I quite like the stock mirrors but wanted to try something different. These are a pair of cheap (£15 ish of ebay) mirrors. Not sure I like them yet though!

    Rizoma grips fitted

    So, I fitted these bad boys yesterday. Please don't laugh, but I am colour blind. The wife tells me that they don't match the race Blu colour. FFs. Opinions please, keep them or not?

    Chain oiler

    Anyone fitted one? I have a Tutoro one that I had on an XJ6, but can't find a good spot to mount it. Any ideas welcome!

    Rizoma parts

    Dos anyone have any experience with these aftermarket parts? They look nice, - but expensive! Rizoma Billet motorcycles parts from Italy.
