    Bike shows in the winter?

    Isn't the show timed so we see all the new bikes??? We wouldn't have seen the new R1 or the H2R if the show was in the summer

    I fitted an Evotech tail tidy to mine last weekend. It's a nicely designed piece of kit and looks mega. I'll post a picture tomorrow Tail Tidy for Yamaha MT 07 | Motorcycle Parts | Yamaha Aftermarket Parts

    Introduced myself to my new MT-07 with a five hour ride!

    Welcome to the forum! I got my 64 plate MT-07 over the weekend and it killed me not to use it until Monday. Mine is a white ABS version too :) I've ordered an Akrapovic but got to wait until they-re in stock at CMC Clay Cross :(

    Rear Wheel Bolt - Bad setup

    If it states that a thread should be lubricated with a particular product then the torque figure will be calculate to provide the correct tension. You get a more consistent tension to torque with lubricated surfaces than dry

    Hi from Clitheroe UK and help/advice please!

    Have you ridden an MT-07 yet? I've been riding 20 years and had allsorts of bikes and used to do 10 to 15 track days a year and I love the MT-07. It won't blow your socks off with its acceleration but it will go around corners and pull stonking wheelies ;)

    wassup from london

    I've been riding 20 years and done all types of riding; trials, enduro, loads of track days etc. Took an MT07 out at the weekend and absolutely loved it. If you are coming from a 125 you'll probably love it more than I did!

    Hello from Sheffield

    I took an MT07 out yesterday for about an hour. I fired the engine and was a bit underwhelmed by the noise. Pulling away in traffic it felt lumpy compared to my Z1000 but I loved how light the bike was and how torquey the engine felt. It's such a maneuverable bike so perfect for my 70 mile...

    Hello from Sheffield

    Hello guys, I've ordered my MT-07 this week and delivery is due in a couple of weeks. I've chosen a white one with ABS, although I would have preferred it without because I'm impatient and couldn't wait a couple of months for one. I traded in a 2005 model Kawasaki Z1000 that I've only had a...
