rear

Hi all. I have a Tracer with a topbox and sidecases. In a month I'll be driving a longer trip with the panniers fully loaded and with a passenger. So far I've tightended the front suspension preload and rebound a bit, and adjusted the rebound on the rear shock. The settings are nice enough now...

well after enjoying last weeks use of a lovely R1 , i was convinced i must have one . yet , tonight , with a new rear bridgestone , softened suspension , i had a brilliant time whizzing around norfolk , trying to avoid all the road chip crap they seem to putting everywhere, you know the stuff ...

Spent a bit of time Saturday while it was raining outside cutting out the useless plastic ridge to open up the underseat storage for the disc lock & making a rear mud flap to help protect the rear shock from some of the road crud.

Just fitted my factory rear rack with the intention of fitting a universal mount and top box only to find yamaha says it is not designed to take a top box anybody using one with a box and any issues cheers.

Is this occurring, as it does on the MT-09? I refer to the case, where you have the bike out in the rain, and the spray from the rear wheel ends up and giving you a very wet experience on your bum! :-) Is that sorted with the bigger rear of the Tracer?

Does anyone know if the studs should be thread locked in to the wheel ??

what is everyone doing with there standard front fork internals,rear shock etc,?

Hey Guys, I would really like to turn off the ABS on the rear wheel, I personally just like sliding around supermoto style a bit. Do you think it is possible?

Hello, I've been lurking around for some time now and thought I should register. The forum has been great for mod ideas and seeing what other people have done in particular opinions on different products. I found this site simply by googling. I have owned my matte grey MT-09 for almost a year...

Just interested to hear how you folks clean the rear wheel. I tend to use a bit of petrol then polish off with Autoglym which brings the wheel up fine. Cheers Tony
