    delivery dates

    Jesus don't say that!!! If they do that to me I'll just cancel my order and for me that would mean delivery in sep / oct when I normally put it away for winter. I'll order next year in Feb and push for a better deal. Ok now I'm over my panic i guess I'll wait as long as I have to lol

    Well I'll be looking at yet more photos of mt07's Dreaming a merry dream and getting depressed at my 5 week wait. Feels like I'll be riding it at Christmas at this rate, I'll have to turn it into a tracked vehicle for winter at this rate. :( Group hug please

    MT-07 Exhaust Sound & Essential Mods

    It does indeed. I think it's because 600/700cc's USED to be ridden only by girls. And girls like big ones. The End.

    Well this section needs a first post...

    What I learned today? How about what I learned 4 years ago: DO NOT FALL ASLEEP ON A BIKE WHILE ON A MOTORWAY. (Or while moving at all actually) It hardly ever ends well. That's today's advice for noobs.

    Handle Bars........ not the most comfortable!

    Seeing as I'm waiting for my bike for 4 weeks I'm thinking of getting all the mods now while I wait. On sitting on the dealers mt07 I found the bars sweep back to much I think I'd like some that are a little straighter and a tad more upright like the renthal drag bars I used to have. Anyone...

    Run in now

    Running in is subjective really, bare in mind it's a high revving engine, I worked at a car dealers in sales for 6 years and I can tell you this. We never had a single problem with our demo's and personal cars, we got company cars and would thrash them right out of the box, we were always told...
