Attention Administrator - Please 'Delete' Me

[Del Mar]

Hi there - hopefully an Administrator can pick this up.

In the end I didn't purchase an MT-09.

In this case I really had to let head rule heart, so an uber-sensible Honda NC750X now sits in my garage. More suited to my purposes and a genuine average 75mpg (must be an age thing to get excited about that!)

Thing is, after many years of big fast bikes it's about time I slowed down a little by removing the temptation of ballistic performance.

The MT-09 is a great bike, but needs younger pilots, or those who haven't lost their 'edge' as I think I have for something of this ilk.

Enjoy your MTs...!

All the best.

Congrats on your purchase but we want pictures nevertheless! All bikes are cool be it MT-09, Triple or NC750X. I saw one at the MCN show actually and thought it looked quite cool. At least visually it looks like a perfect commuter bike.

Pictures? OK, if you insist..! Modded with a few bits and pieces and believe it or not, has a superb V twin exhaust note. Something to do with the stroke and crank angle.

Thanks for all your comments - you're and understanding bunch....

BTW, the pic of the bike outside the double gates was Barry Sheene's house in Charlwood, Surrey, before he shipped out to Oz.

i, for my sins joined the ducati hyperstrada forum cos i thought my days were numbered at xmas and decided to have 1 last new toy before being confined to a rubber ring. the hyperstrada was the bestest new status symbol i could afford in thailand (or the nc750 but i went to the grand launch of the honda range and was given a new beer all night for free which ended with me kicking in a shop front in an attempt to find an intruder, an event that im reminded of every time i see the hondas) and so i went for the ducati.........till i rode it.


........thank the baby jesus that they decided to bring in the MT09! besides, the hyperstrada forum had canadians in there .........

Very nice! I personally love the look of it! Looks almost stunning in white (and a matching helmet ).

Thanks Cypher - a little bit 'motard' in appearance.

Despite having only 54bhp it really does get a shift on. The long stroke engine and torque from the word go really is impressive, but as some reports say, it does take a short while to get used to the relatively low redline of 6500. But then, the gears are so tall I haven't found it an issue.

And it's more than just a commuter, don't let the 'rags' tell you that either.

Cheers
