Thanks for the welcome. Will try both next week but at the moment the FZ1 ticks the most boxes. TheMT-09 sure looks pretty but from reading various forums it appears you have to spend on re-mapping and suspension before they're even rideable, not sure about the 'over the front wheel' Supermoto riding position, luggage wise they're limited and until you sort a new rear shock possibly scary, what with the front end being so light. Also, on a security front I cant see anywhere to feed through a chain other than the back wheel. So, Looks, Weight and the fun of a Triple motor are the MT's winning points.
However, the FZ1 maybe heavier (30kg's?) but appears better built, more versatile and probably less attractive to Central London parking bay bike thieves. As the bike will live in the back garden I've emailed Pragmasis to ask if they do an anti-pinch pin (to go with the Almax & Hardie) I already own.
The FZ1 doesn't come with security markings, Is it worth forking out on Datatag (the MT does has Datatag)?
