Makes me wonder how much of a bleedin beast is this MT10 thing.
To be honest I don't personally get all the whoo harr about it. Me and 2 friends took some MT-10s out at Motorcycle live last year and none of us were particularly impressed.
Between us we ride a Fz1, Gsxr-750 & Bandit 1200 and it was only the guy with the bandit that thought ithe MT was a fast bike.
I can honestly say it didn't feel any more aggressive than my Fz1.
That's not to say it was a bad bike or anything but I wouldn't bother selling mine to buy one.
And it may be just me but I think it's a hell of an ugly s.o.b. I much prefer the honda looks wise. I even prefer the old cb1000r to the MT

Yes I had it in full power mode haha it's only makes about 10bhp more than my fz1 so not an overly noticeable amount anyway. I'm sure compared to a bone stock FZ the MT would seem a bit more "beastly"
It was the second time I'd taken one out. This time had been to try the SP edition. I wasn't much fussed on it either time. Although I did like the electronics, quick shifter, rider modes etc but I think I'd miss the charm of being the only thing in control of my bike
