Taken with the possibility of trading my wee-strom for an mt-09 and I ain't even test ridden one ....er, yet. Yam reviews on the net look positive as do comments made by owners here, which is only to be expected as I guess you'll all have test ridden first. Anyhow, YouTube reviews of the machine look good but testers don't tell you what mode they're doing it in which is a shame. So, can any forum member/owners tell us a bit about modes and their preferences in that respect? D'you tend to stick with one mode or are you switching as and when? Any surprises re handling to start with? Did mode preference change over time?
Any ex-vstrom owners here who've gone MT-09? The Suzuki's a heavy, loping beast so the prospect of riding a nimble, responsive bike that's sympathetic to the slightest twist of the wrist does appeal.
Cheers...
