    The MT-07 Picture Game

    Right... Remember... YOU ASKED FOR THIS.... And just in case you're wondering. It is the public highway but the missus took exception to me doing this so had to prop the camera on the tarmac. Next... You... Your bike... And a complete stranger holding a vegetable (of your choice).

    radiator temperature

    I'm guessing that'll be something a little more exotic than my old (rigid) MAC? Of all the "affordable" Brit 350's the MAC is my favourite.

    The MT-07 Picture Game

    I'm a bit concerned as to why you lot of, presumably, heterosexual men... Are so keen to see a fat middle aged bloke dressed in women's underwear ???

    Screen

    A person who I only met briefly in a pub and who's name I do not know but it definitely wasn't me... Officer... Rode his MT 07 along a dual carriageway at 100mph today, for approx five miles, and was surprised at how easy it was, completely naked. (Of course it was the bike that was naked and...

    radiator temperature

    You clearly don't own any old British bikes like I do. "Ride less, Worry more" is my slogan. ;-)

    The MT-07 Picture Game

    What do you mean back on topic... Personally I was enjoying the little diversion as "back on topic" looks inevitably like me having to dress up in my missus underwear... And I usually only do that on a Thursday evening, when she's at Bingo.

    radiator temperature

    Painting the radiator may not be such a good idea. Sure matt black surfaces absorb and release heat better than silver(ish) surfaces, but if you have inadvertently clogged any of the airways by putting the paint on too thick then you will most certainly loose cooling.

    Yamaha / MT07 / Acceleration Test

    http://youtu.be/NrpLVIZ4kVI Just added it as a direct link. Hope you don't mind.

    Was thinking about the MT07 being the 'new RD 350lc', and I had a better idea.

    Regards Norwich Union rider policy... Did ANYBODY that rode a bike back in the day have any other insurance??? There aren't many bargains to be had in life but that was certainly one of the best. (apologies for our non UK members who won't have a clue what we're on about). Dear Norwich...

    akrapovic exhaust

    Yes and no... Bear in mind none of us are likely to have owned the bike for long or done high mileage. Also. when I took mine off the nuts on the manifold studs were pretty loose. I re used the gaskets without a problem.

    Was thinking about the MT07 being the 'new RD 350lc', and I had a better idea.

    I think for those of us not used to American cars but of middle age... Peugeot 205GTi. Small, light, quick of the mark and fill your pants exciting to drive. Maybe not quite so "classy" as the Golf GTi but not so common as the XR3i

    Come on someone... It's not that difficult. Show your feminine side.

    akrapovic exhaust

    Bloody Hell... I'd fit it for forty quid !!! It only takes twenty minutes and probably half that if you get the right tools ready first. Of course the Arrow is only five hundred quid delivered (though without cat and bit more fiddly to fit) On the other hand I carry some circlip pliers under...

    The MT-07 Picture Game

    You should perhaps know that... A). I have no shame and B). I have not excluded items that may take one or more AA size batteries... Bring it on.

    The MT-07 Picture Game

    Okay so the gentleman in question can be seen just to the left of my helmet as he leaves, rather conveniently carrying his burger in a bag. Next... With you, your bike and... two items from your missus/girlfriend/aquaintance knicker drawer. Preferably wearing them and in a public place.

    akrapovic exhaust

    I should imagine the Akra uses the same mounting points as the standard system so check out my thread on exhaust removal and just do the same but in reverse. I stand to be corrected though.

    Front Forks

    At the risk of stating the seemingly obvious. Just collect what you drain and then replace with the same amount. Not that I'd want to give advice on using engine oil, that's your affair. So if it works for you... Then why not?

    Member Interviews

    What do you do for a living?... I run a little company supplying "roadies"/crew to the entertainment industry. How long have you owned your MT-07/ FZ-07 or other?... About 1000 miles long... and counting. What other modes of transport do you have?... Car, van, Kayak, sailing dingy, bicycle...

    How To... Fit Arrow Exhaust (shortie Style)

    If you look at the associated modification thread you can see the E mark in one of the pictures. Can't say I know much about E marks but presumably that's what you are asking about. Regards fitting a cat, sorry, not a clue.

    MT-07 Exhaust Sound & Essential Mods

    Just to say I have added a couple of videos of the bike being ridden with Arrow system fitted. One has the DB Killer fitted and the other has it removed. They can be seen in this thread...
