    Is it good for novice riders? Any short riders here?

    Hey, New member here. I'll get my license soon and the 2018 mt-07 is at the top of my bike list. I'm a very small rider as my height is about 167cm (5'5 1/2) with a 30inch inseam and i weigh around 64kg (141lbs). I can't really quite plant my foot flat on the ground on most big bikes. Do you...

    MT09 Flat Seat with Red Stitching

    Yamaha MT 09 Super-moto style flat seat with red stitching which gives a little more comfort and a bit higher seat height. The seat gives a supermoto style riding position and a bit extra height which will benefit taller riders. I bought this Genuine Yamaha seat for my MT 09 but only used it...

    MT09 Seat Price

    Not sure if anyone has seen, but it looks like Yamaha has dramatically reduced the price of the flat and comfort seats, at least for the early models. Flat Seat £117, Comfort Seat £126 and vintage seat £58.

    seat options to stay sane

    Original seat grates on my nerves. I am sliding all the time. You slide because there is a dip. Makes it easier to get your foots flat. Now I am 6 feet tall and don't need that. Apparently there is street/sport rally seat. Raises the seat height considerably and you can sit wherever you like...

    Goop in your tyres.

    Is anyone else using Goop or any other puncture prevention? Rather waiting for the puncture then getting it repaired I've seen videos and read reviews on using this method and looks to be the best specially for motorbikes as we can't carry a spare wheel/tyre with us. The last thing a biker...

    Aerodynamic "Flat Plate Area" up to 100 mph

    Someone in aerodynamics told me the wind resistance should be fine up to 100 mph on the MT-07 because the bike will be in the "Flat Plate Area". That makes sense to me because when I had my 1977 Yamaha RD 400, I could take it up to 100 mph without a problem. If this is indeed true, I see no...

    mt07 flat tracker

    I recently read an article about a flat tracker that had been built using an mt07 engine. I think the guy who was going to be riding it was called Cory Texter and it was due to run at the Springfield Mile last week. I tried to find out how it did but couldn't find anything on the net. Does...
