Mon~fri its lew
Weekends its Louise
Ah shit- I have been rumbled lol.
Went for a run this morning , not to far as the weather looked threatening, not that I am adverse to a drop of rain but when it rains here in October(Spain) it does not mess about.
I can honestly say I have never had as much fun on a bike for quite sometime. Don't get me wrong I loved my FZ but it was a struggle for me to move around especially on these tight mountain roads I ride. The 09 is just so much lighter for me and I was not having to fight with it. Well saying that next job on the list is to sort out the suspension. There is one corner I love a fast right hander but as you exit it there is hump at the top. As I came over the top of it the bike turned into a bouncy castle, front end is prone to diving on the brakes nearly bottoming out so will be tweaking that. All in all good morning, Even though the ECU has had a Yam upgrade the throttle is still snatchy. I tried all 3 power modes and it is certainly more user friendly in ''B'' mode, ''A'' mode is very aggressive ''Std '' mode is in between the two. As the roads were wet I settled for ''B''mode for most of the ride. The seat is a brick so can feel an upgrade for the seat, maybe an AirHawk?. Have just re-ordered the Hugger extender again as it was missing when I got back, next one will be bolted on.
Anyone any experience with Dunlop Sportsmax tyres, these are stock tyres on the MT-09, never had Dunlops for a 100 years, seemed okay but not a lot of feedback, maybe I was not trying hard enough, still all in all I think this one will keep me happy and biking for a few years to come. Lew
