    Stock Exhaust Mod

    I modded mine back in 2014. I cut the pipe in the right hand chamber right out, and drilled some holes in the plate between the middle & right chamber. I didnt touch the cat. According to my db app on my phone, it was 2db louder afterwards. Louder than standard, but not obnoxiously so. Have done...

    Mt09 for beginners

    You are correct, a smaller rear sprocket will make it less aggressive on the throttle when accelerating, but increase the top speed. B mode will also make it less aggressive, as thats the rain mode, and softens the power delivery. As mentioned above, take it easy and ride sensibility

    CCT failure AGAIN!

    Thats the sort of thing, however I would spend the extra and get one from a reputable manufacturer who has been going for years. I know its treble the price, but for peace of mind I would go for the Ape one. If a CCT fails the results are catastrophic...

    10%out of sync speed on the speedometer

    In the UK I think its standard practice to overread by 10%. This over reading can be corrected by an ecu reflash, which can also remove the restrictor and smooth out the fuelling

    Advice, Suggestions For Mods

    I have the original MT09, the 2013 model, which I bought new in october 2013. I'd recommend a radiator guard, will save you a holed rad. I have the cheap ebay shorty levers, were about £15, and have now been on for over 5 years and 32000 miles with no issues. I have standard bars, but have...

    Throttle valve issues - no signal from ECU

    There are specialists in the UK who are able to reprogramme new keys to work with the existing ECU. They do not turn off the immobilser, which I wouldnt have thought possible. Google motomatrix

    Throttle valve issues - no signal from ECU

    Why would someone try to turn off the immobiliser? Sounds really dodgy, only reason I can think of is stolen bike. Only a dealer can recode ECU to immobiliser embedded in key

    New brakes

    They look, do the calipers slip on easily, or is it a tight fit?

    MT09 brakes question

    Sounds normal to me, the rear brake on the MT is fairly powerful and easy to lock up. Maybe try firming up the front suspension, this will stop it transferring more weight to the front
