Just wondering what peoples opinions are on this really - Some people consider the throttle to be over response if in 1st/2nd gear at around 18-30mph - I remember this was mentioned in a few reviews when the MT-09 was released. Suggestions I have seen to address this; Fit an after market fuel injection tuner thing - (probably a better description for this)Fit a different sized/shaped cam on the throttle to extend the first 1/4 of openingCheck for/remove slack on throttle cableAdjust the 'CO settings' to make the fuel mixture richerGet the ECU reflashed by the dealerI am fairly happy with the throttle response, I only began looking into when someone else mentioned it. Wi…

Hi, just wondering does the Yamaha MT-125 have storage under the rear seat. On lots of bikes nowadays you can use your key to unlock the rear seat and then you can store some small things underneath it. Just wanted to know is the MT-125 has the same feature. Thanks

Well it's been 3 or 4 years since I've been skiing @ Mt. Hood Meadows resort......always liked this view from just the parking lot .... It definitely coulda been clearer for weather, but the temps & wind I sure couldn't complain about! For my fellow 2-wheel Compadre's.....This is only 1 reason I Love to Ski! ... As you can see, Mt. Jefferson & the 3 Sisters are fairly clear in view..... Those mountains are halfway down the state of Oregon. But on a really clear day, I've seen Mt. Shasta waaay off in the distance ......that's over an 8 hour drive clear down in California! 1 more from a different, more challenging run..... …

Hi all,i don't want to go to the expense of buying new exhausts,is it possible to modify existing exhausts to give a bit more of a growl without affecting engine setup etc.ie baffles, internals.Cheers in advance.

Recently bought the above, with which I am very pleased, slowed me down somwhat, my other bikes an Aprilia, is there another owner out there, Gloucestershire perhaps we could have a pint. The local Harley group is having an event we could go and piss the H.O.G.s off! Sounds better, made better,handles better and brakes!! Which makes a point, Yam Mt01 looks good,sounds good,90bhp, 85 at 3000R.P.M, handles reasonably, bit heavy, great for short blasts/thunder in the sun. Aprilia SL Falco, 118BHP, comfortable,better than RSV, 195Kg,no wind double bubble, seriously quick for an old git like me, one of the …

potential MT01/03 owners, There is a webb site totaly devoted to this model www.MT-owners-club.org.uk Gloucestershire MTowner the Rat

My Mt03 had an error code come up whilst I was riding, it showed PRO, stopped bike and the rev counter stuck at 4000, whilst engine off Left engine off and still showed error code. any ideas and needle stuck at 4000. Bike was running ok,although very heavy rain.

Hello guys, new to the forum. Just added an MT03 to me collection and although I like this bike it does seem under geared. 5000 rpm brings 70 mph. Most other bikes seem to aim for 4000 rpm at 70. I'm wondering if the previous owner changed a sprocket. Anybody know what standard sizes were on a 2012 model? Also, it is fitted with Leo Vince exhaust and bangs a lot on overrun until fuel has burnt. Is there a fix for this?

I'm not sure how many MT03 owners there are on here, but I'm interested in the ones that have covered over 6000 miles (10,000km). Have any of you had to replace your cush drive rubbers ??

Hello! I am new to this forum, not new to motorcycling. I am learning my way around this site, and I hope that I posted this inquiry in the right place. I am interested in an MT-03. They are available in Canada I believe. They are not available in the US. How can I find out if this bike meets US emission standards, etc. so I can go to Canada and at least test ride one? Than you in advance for your help. Ride safe, Howard

I've been quiet (lurking and enjoying the YBR over winter) Now passed A licence and looking to move up to a bigger bike. Torn between a new MT07 abs and a slightly old Honda Hornet abs. I know I'm on a Yammy site but would welcome any thoughts that more experienced heads may have on the matter.

Hello people what oiL Do you guys use on your mt10/r1 semi or full

Hey Guys, So... this morning coming out my garage I put the side-stand down and went to close the garage door and the damned gravel under the side-stand gave way and allowed my bike to kiss the ground passionately. The ground was not kind, snapped the clutch lever and cracked the wing-mirror - no other damage luckily. My issue is I can't seem to find any MT125 parts for sale and am not sure if the MT07 or YZFR125 parts would be compatible? Anybody able to point me in the right direction? :] Thanks!

Four guys on Townmates

My Dad no longer has his Mullet of 16 years .....I think he just wanted to get my Mom off his back ....so he got fed up & took out the scissors & snip....that's all she wrote :? So now I'm the top Mullet Head around here......

Now I really don't have anything against Pete's James Dean hairdoo :wink: But, for me, the mullet thing started about 25 years ago when I 1st heard RUSH on the radio.....been a fan ever since. Here's one of "The Professor" back in the day...... & this is what he looks like today :shock: ...... Gotta hand it to Neil Peart.......after 30 years, he's still twirlin' the sticks 8) I've listened to these guys for over 25 years, & have yet to get tired of 'em 8) .......but listening doesn't even scratch the surface, compared to seeing 'em LIVE.....Peart is a Phenominal Drummer & lyricist :tu He's also an avid Motorcyclist 8) ....…

Tired of constantly being broke & stuck in an unhappy marriage, a young husband decided to solve both problems by taking out a large insurance policy on his wife with himself as the beneficiary, and then arranging to have her killed. A 'friend of a friend' put him in touch with a nefarious dark-side underworld figure who went by the name of 'Artie..' Artie then explained to the husband that his going price for snuffing out a spouse was £5,000... The husband said he was willing to pay that amount, but that he wouldn't have any cash on hand until he could collect his wife's insurance money. Artie insisted on being paid at least something up front, so the m…
