Hi from Ayrshire

[scotty99]

Just picked up my new MT09 Tracer today!
It's a fantastic bike and rides brilliantly. I traded in my XT660R, which was great fun, but hard work.
Looking forward to doing some touring in the spring/summer - the Wild Atlantic Way in April, and the Pyrenees in July.
My only complaint is the mirrors, which are rubbish!

Scott.

Welcome... I assume your view is full of elbows. Somewhere in this site is a thread on Mirror extenders (not risers) following the link I purchased a pair on ebay, cost around £15, they work fine. In fact the sale was for 2 pairs, long and short. I fitted the short ones (about 25mm) and the mirrors are now the same width as the Yamaha soft panniers, useful in Traffic. I had a quick look but cannot see them listed now, maybe the supplier is making a new batch. Only criticism would be that the paint finish looks a bit thin. Fitted the long ones (40mm) to my sons MT07.

Hope this helps...

Welcome! Hello to Scotland too - I had 5 good years there (and some great DH MTB'ing) and do miss it.
