In theory, Dazza should have a serious issue with the fork seals, but I notice he hasn't mentioned them, so they are potentially still holding up well!Another plus to owning an MT10 (Having ridden with Dazza). You'll get around 40,000 miles out of a front tyre
This is a bastard thread as I am so tempted. Test road one at easter on the Yamaha ride day, that made it even worse. Waiting for the prices to come down, so another couple of years.What mpg are you getting as this seems to be the only Achilles heel that I can find?

Just its a massive shock from the 600. At least my knees and back would get a regular break, although it was very comfortable unlike the mt09 which I found very uncomfortable.

Although I could twist it and say the 600 is ideal as a first bike for her as and when she comes to ride.
