Distance measured is Mounting hole centres

Ok thanks Marthy , i did read yr post first and a triple clicker would have been nice although i couldnt find one anywhere here in OZ , i always felt the MT09 needed a bit more height in the rear , not only for more peg clearance but also to put more weight on the front tyre for a better feel...

Got the info and pics from the FZ site , gotta love the Americans when it comes to modifications , trying new things and making the effort the share it :) i have turned the shock so the canister facing down so i can adjust the compression , no cutting of the undertray although the side of the...

For anyone on a budget i have fitted an 06 ZX6R shock which i believe has a 9.7kg spring , the shock is also 8mm longer , with set spring height of 178 mm the bike sits 18mm higher than the original shock at full preload , bike sag is now 12mm , rider sag at 35mm , rider weight 76 - 78 kgs no...

A string of dirt and road bikes not worth mentioning or with much street cred until Y2K came around, which to me was when the Motorcyle industry started hotting up , 01 R1 02 Firestorm 02 Fireblade 02 R1 04 R1 05 R1 05 GSXR1000 05 Superduke 06 Hornet 900 06 R6 07 Fireblade 07 Tuono 1000R 07...

Not sure what contribution yr post has to this thread or helping us in any way , everything in life is a comparison to something else , no matter if it is a car , bike or even a girlfriend , good luck to people who are happy with what they have , im sure people were also happy with the horse and...

yamaha has given an adjustment range of -128 to +126 , not sure 1 digit will make a sufficient difference , it would also be kinder to the engine if any adjustments made are the same on all cylinders , without a gas analyzer to go further mine are set 15 digits above the factory setting of 0 ...

Yes , mine is also C1 ,C2,C3 , in any case have a fiddle , let us know what yr factory settings are and what you have found to be the best for you , the MT-09 is new to us so lets try a few things :)

CO Adjustment on 2009+ Yamaha VMAX - YouTube this is on a Vmax although procedure is the same for all yamahas :)

many bikes these days are set very lean at the factory to get through tough Euro regulations , my current R1 had the same issue as yrs , would have to crank for a few secs to start hot or cold until i adjusted the CO , current Tuono V4 had snatchy throttle and felt held back until i got the...

no , always started straight away , if yr having a problem when cold yrs might be running leaner , you could try raising the CO settings first and see , considering the vast range of adjustment i doubt 10-20 digits would hurt anything .

The power band seems smoother throughout the rev range , not sure if there is more power without a dyno run or how richer i have made the mixtures without a analyzer , i have owned several yamahas , R1s and FZ1s and have raised the settings on all including the current model R1 with all having a...

this one is v max although same procedure CO Adjustment on 2009+ Yamaha VMAX - YouTube , cheers

Hi , Not sure if this adjustment can be carried out on FZ 09 s but with MTs and all Euro Yamahas for that matter the CO or Fuel mixtures can be adjusted through the instrument cluster , they are limited but can adjusted none the less , i have adjusted mine 10 digits above standard and has...
