What did you do with whatever else you've got?

[dazza]

I agree Frosties, stunning that is. It is a work of art. Got talking to a guy who had one over at Headcorn Aerodrome the other month....It was on it's 3rd recall.....There's always a price to pay for beauty, nothing Italian can be that beautiful and not be tempermental.
It's also my brother's dream bike,  he seems to be enjoying it..
Tail tidy is on the cards but not yet.

[downey]

fuk me thats awesome ,, but imagine havin to clean those wheels with all the spokes in the way  :wall

[dazza]

That was my first thought Downey. It cracked me up when he lifted the seat to show us the tool kit.....It was an allen key, that was it  :lol

[downey]

:rollin , speakin of which is there room for much under the seat of the mt-10,,has it sunk in u own one yet ?  :lol

[unfazed]

:rollin , speakin of which is there room for much under the seat of the mt-10,,has it sunk in u own one yet ?  :lol

There's no room under there either, managed to get a small bottle of visor spray and a cloth by the battery but the tool kit is in the kitchen, haven't got a clue where it goes or how it's going to fit but who cares....I've got cruise control you know  :lol

Looking at your MT10,Dazza,brings out the lust & envy in me!  Also my OCD suggests to me that keeping her clean is going to be interesting(bit like those spoked wheels on the MV!).


My trusty Husqvarna leaf blower has come in very useful for blasting the moisture out of all the nooks & crannies on several different bikes. There seem to be plenty of these on the MT series.


However, after 8 years hard use (including blowing up loads of leaves) it  has decided to malfunction by flooding/refusing to start so methinks its strip down time before the autumn. May end up purchasing a new one-the only way I can keep up with you guys on your brand new exotica :lol  Enjoy it shiny side up!

Went for a midweek spin on the Sprint, stopped for 5 minutes when I went to start it and nowt, :'(  got a jump start off the wifes car and it burst into life, ordered a new battery from Wemoto (great service came in 2 days) bike turns over so much better now, long may it last as I'm doing the NC500 next weekend.

Fitted Carbon swing arm covers to the tuono v4. They have tie wraps around the covers until the silicone glue sets!

[nickodemon]

Went for a blast to check the carbon covers were secure. I also bought lightech chain adjusters and had the ecu reflashed by gabro racing this spring :eek  Bloody hell it's even more mental   I think thats all the mods....

[downey]

shes lookin well now lad ,,i miss mine desperate,its in the shop 2 weeks now waiting on a stator to be replaced  :'(

[nickodemon]

What happened to the stator?

[downey]

it fried itself and wouldnt charge the battery  :groan

[nickodemon]

What year and mileage is it?

[joebloggs]

Replaced clutch slave cylinder on the Eunos, must have been a world record for bleeding the system, three pumps of the pedal and done. No bull, pumped a couple of times after but no improvement
Had been putting it off for ages but only took half an hour, took longer to find the right tools....

[downey]

What year and mileage is it?

2011 and 17000kmh or thereabouts

[kitcrazy]

Had 8 day's on the river
