    intobikes.co.uk - avoid

    Thought i'd spread the word on this one - if anyone has a need to order accessories, please avoid this retailer. They don't respond to emails or phone calls (and i have initiated many!). Google reviews I found out afterwards is littered with feedback from lots of other bikers in the same boat...

    Right side heel plate

    The stock wire hanger was bugging me. It looked redundant with an Acrapovic silencer, and stuck out far enough and low enough to catch underneath my heel every now and then. Time to make a replacement out of 4mm aluminium plate. Stock... Non-stock... It's a bit shiny, but what do you...

    Byebye Dunlops....

    So after taking my temporarily repaired tyre (thankyou Mr 2 inch nail!) to get a permanent fix, I was advised that the wear on my stock tyres (Dunlop D214s) was more or less at the tread line and would likely be illegal in a few hundred miles.. so I took it to originally just replace that tyre...

    Engine Noise at Low Revs

    Hi Guys and Girls, I'm new to to this forum but have just got up to speed on the Tracer threads by skim reading a fair few posts. I've only had a new old stock 2015 Tracer a few weeks but have already done 1500km over mostly 'sporty' (max from 6,000 to <10,000 rpm) country riding in the Hunter...

    Hi all, New member, due to collect my MT09 next Tuesday from Tinkler's in Norwich. I signed up here a couple of weeks ago, and have been trawling the site learning what I can about the MT from the knowledgable people here before I get it. I've liked the look of the MT09 since it first came out...

    Air Hawk

    Anyone ever tried an air hawk seat pad, I have a monster tour coming up in April, Spain to N Ireland. I have done this before but in reverse and it was not on the MT. I did it on my Z1000SX but I had a Sargent seat on that. I find the stock seat okay on runs about 120/140 miles before a numb...

    Custom Seat for Sale

    When I first got my MT-09 I could only ride it for half an hour before my arse was in agony. So I had a genuine Yamaha seat base re up holstered in USA by Seth Laam earlier this year. This cost me over £300 to get it to my door. I am about to change bikes now so this is for sale for £200...

    Tail Tidy

    I just received my tail tidy yesterday. I was an R & G. I bought it on Ebay au. I'm a fussy bastard I know, but it just doesn't cut the mustard in my opinion. Two reasons for this, firstly the stock indicators don't fit and never will fit unless you modify the bracket. Fair enough, the website...

    Tail tidy using stock plate holder

    Hi. First post on here having just ordered a Tracer in race blue. Hopefully picking up in a couple of weeks. I noticed in the showroom there was a slightly used bike with a tail tidy, however it looked like it was made using the stock holder but just removed the "stem". Anyone else done...

    suspension Stock vs modified

    This might sound like a stupid question, but I read over and over again. People saying that when they sorted the suspension on these bikes that it was a "night and day difference" I haven't done mine yet. So I'd like to know in specifics what did a new suspension fix that was wrong with the...

    Clubman Bars.

    Hi all, I am interested in fitting some of the clubman style bars to my MT09. If I buy some 7/8' bars what sort of sleeve or adapter do i need? The stock bars are about 28.6mm at the clamps and I cant really find anything online that will do the job. Also will the stock grips fit on the 7/8'...

    quick question: carbon akra with stock fuelling?

    This forum is a bad influence on me. I've been spending way too much money on this bike, just finished installing the Hyperpro shocks and the Seat Concepts seat.... so I really shouldn't be spending any more money for a while BUT my wife just happens to be in Canada for this week, and the prices...
