Finally met another MT-09'er!

[Cypher]

Today, for the first time since I bought the bike back in November I met someone else riding it in London! It was a race blu with akra, flyscreen and radiator guards as much as I managed to notice.

He stopped next to me and said "Nice number plate!" to what I replied "Thanks! You have a nice bike, sir!"
We chatted a bit at the traffic lights near Aldgate and then he took off only to stop at the next set of lights. Said that the previous bike he was riding was an SV and that he can't believe how much power this bike has

I asked if he was on any of the forums, he said he's reading the american one but hasn't registered anywhere.

If you are the guy and are reading this - don't hesitate and REGISTER and join our exclusive club Also, stop using B mode!

P.S.
Regarding akra - I can't say I was impressed by it. If he wouldn't have told me he had it (he stopped on my right so I couldn't see) I would've thought it was the stock exhaust. Really not worth the grand they're asking for it in my view...

To be honest...the akra with the baffle in sounds just like the stock zorst until u start winding it up
