  1. Wow that's shocking, obv he doens't need new customers.
  2. You're not daft at all, this is a super common issue when switching to LED indicators on a bike. The problem happens because your old bulbs used more power, and your bike’s flasher relay was designed for that. LEDs use way less power, so the relay isn’t getting the right load, which makes both sides blink at the same time. Some bikes also have a single dash indicator light for both sides, and with LEDs, power can bleed through and activate both. The easiest fix is to replace your flasher relay with an LED-compatible one. Just swap out the old relay for an LED-specific version, and it should work normally. If that doesn’t fix it, you might need to add load resistors to each indicator, which trick the system into thinking the old bulbs are still there. Resistors take more effort to install, so try the relay first. If your dash light still causes weirdness after that, there’s a simple diode mod that can help, but one step at a time!

    Hi @NE0 thanks for pointing out. The issue here is that the pinned posts will always stay on top. However I'm pretty confident those pinned posts were unpinned a long time back. I'm guessing v5 may handle them differently. Will go through and unpin where neccessary.

    Well good news, applied the latest patch from support and the remaining issues I'm aware of appear fixed. Please let me know if there is anything else you spot. Well this will teach me to upgrade a bit too early. Sorry for all the issues everyone.
  6. Happy new year all! Just back from a 7k km road trip with two screaming kids, never thought I'd be glad to be home 😂
  7. There's a couple of other bikes which have been pulled over at the beginning on the video, bottom of the frame. The US is a crazy patch work of filtering/lane splitting regulations. The ironic thing is there's been quite a few large research pieces come out of the USA such as the HURT report and the SafeTREC research which proved that lane filtering in slow/stationary traffic is safer and reduces congestion.

Moving on to the 2024 MT-09SP, it takes the foundation laid by the standard model and adds several enhancements. These include fully adjustable suspension, top-notch Brembo Stylema brake calipers, a customizable Track riding mode, an R1M superbike-inspired livery in black, blue, and silver, complete with a brushed aluminum swing arm. Notably, the MT-09SP introduces Yamaha's new 'Smart Key' keyless ignition system for the first time, a feature that adds a modern touch to the bike. While many aspects of the SP are similar to the standard MT-09 (which was already updated for 2024), it's worth reiterating some key features. The bike sports a 'slimmer, sharper new look' with a redesigned tank, new LED front light cluster, separate rear LED tail and brake lights, and a two-piece seat that matches the bodywork. The riding position is also updated, offering lower handlebars and higher pegs, both of which are adjustable. The MT-09SP incorporates a five-inch TFT dashboard and switchgear inspired by the latest Tracer 9 GT+ and Niken GT models. The standout features of the MT-09SP include its premium, fully adjustable suspension. This comprises gold-finished, DLC-coated 41mm KYB forks at the front and an Öhlins monoshock at the rear.

Brakes on the MT-09SP receive an upgrade with twin Brembo monoblock 'Stylema' calipers, providing superbike-class braking performance. The bike introduces an additional Track riding mode alongside the standard Sport, Street, and Rain modes, allowing riders to customize power, traction, braking, and more for various track scenarios. A dedicated Track theme is also featured on the TFT display. One of the standout features on the MT-09SP is Yamaha's new keyless 'Smart Key System.'

It remains active as long as the Smart Key is within range and also offers a lock and unlock option for the fuel cap. The 2024 Yamaha MT-09SP is available in a striking R1M-inspired black, silver, and blue color scheme, complete with a brushed aluminum swing arm. Yamaha has yet to announce pricing and availability details. In summary, the 2024 Yamaha MT-09SP offers several notable upgrades, including enhanced suspension, improved brakes, and the introduction of a keyless ignition system. With its sporty design and advanced features, it's sure to attract motorcycle enthusiasts looking for a high-performance naked bike.

    @frankie4fingers We moved servers very recently and I didn't copy over the old classsifieds database. There wasn't anything currently active, and thousands of expired/achived classifieds I didn't see the point in putting back live. @Snakebite68 that's a good idea, I'll take a look.
