That's some investigative work @neo thank you very much. I still haven't got around to fixing it, it's still running fine with a twisting stud... I'll have to take the nut off and take it down to a shop and see what matches.

I'm not sure if i'd be able to fit a theaded insert, I don't have a pillar drill and not confident I could drill accurately enough by hand. Looks like I'll be off to the shop with one of the nuts and see what it fits on :)

Well it obviously had to happen, tightening down the last nut the stud started turning in the alloy cush drive. It felt wrong tightening to the specified torque settings, but I stupidly continued. Anyone know what helicoils I need to refit a stud?

Well Yamaha have put up 360 photos now https://www.yamaha-motor.eu/gb/en/products/motorcycles/hyper-naked/mt-09/ Now I've seen it properly I don't like the light, much prefer the more aggressive look of the existing model. Love the dash though, wonder if I can make it fit my one...

I'm really 50/50 on it, I'm not sure if it'll grow on me. Looks like they've fixed the annoying issue with the quick shifter light being perm on, rather than only lighting up if there's an issue. Wonder if they've finally fixed the suspension...

Well it's certainly an odd ad, but what do you think of the new MT?

Sorry haven't commented on this earlier. I've been looking at trying to get a good way of automating posts from here to Facebook, currently I haven't really found a nice way of doing it without spamming everyone. There's a new version launching int he next few weeks which should make this possible. You're right it's Facebook, our traffic significantly dropped once shortly after they launched their groups functionality. Compared to a forum it's pretty useless in regards to searching and usability etc. However it's there immediately in your hand where most people are checking all the time. We'll have an app coming out soon with alerting functionality, hopefully it's going to help!

Have been looking at buying a Shoei GT Air 2 but have read poor reviews about the integrated Senna SRL2 speakers. I was wondering if anyone has cut the originals off and upgraded them?

I've just purchased a windjammer but stupidly didn't think about the fact that I have an intercom and a video camera glued on the side so can't use it. Does anyone know of one which can be fitted internally somehow?

Well went with the K-Tech as it had length adjustment, it feels like the backend needs to be slightly higher so will have a play.

You can always fit an easy pull clutch device, obviously there are nicer ones than this one https://www.thirdgear.com.au/easy-pull-clutch-system take a look on ebay

Just finished the dreaded server move whilst you guys were sleeping, let me know if you have any issues. Cheers

Hi Grimo the Yamalube is fully synthetic

Anyone fitted either of the above to their bike? Or know generally which is a better shock? Cheers
