bump

there is nothing wrong with it lol literally just the tinny shroud that sits over it that got dented. Actual exhaust is fine, no rust just needs a clean. So for someone who wants to go back to stock or just needs a cheap replacement exhaust, will do fine. I actually went to view a bike before i bought mine and he had (which i now realise is) a stock exhaust with the cover removed, but he must have gutted out the silencer because it sounded mean.

really, or..? im not sure if it was joke or not what's the scrap value for that roughly

Few bits for sale for the MT07. 1. Original exhaust off a 2019. Good condition. Only damage is on the shroud/muffler cover, dented on top. £50 2. Pair of mirrors brand new condition £15 3. Single RH mirror came originally with bike. £7 4. 1x R&G crash protection bung - this was a left hand side one from a set, but i'm pretty sure they can go which ever side you want, just flip the center cap to suit. Maybe someone can confirm that. £30 thanks. drop a text if interested 07843176796

just dropped them an email

yea i have read that ecu tends to do a better job, but with a power commander (or similar) you can just remove it and your back to stock. Saying that, most places offer unlimited flashes after the initial payment (in case you make further mods) interesting, havn't seen this one before. About £140. How does it work, you they have maps you download online? Did you find one specific to your mods? Also, what did you find with the mpg afterwards? i contacted a flashing company, he said tbh i won't see much gains in power, would mostly be refinement in terms of getting smoother throttle response and less engine braking. TBH neither of those bother me, and the engine braking it handy when zooming around london, extra stopping power and less wear on the pads i need to hear from somone with an mt07 whos actually done it and doesn't suffer from placebo syndrome

yes came across this also, as like you said it is the 02 sensors job. Think i'll go for it anyway to unlock its full potential. hello mate, yea I only have exhaust system atm. I don't think i'll be upgrading any airbox systems....maybe I'll change the lid to something more free flowing, but im also in the midst of researching that as its unclear if there are any real gains. is that plug something like the power commanders?

Had a little search on here but couldn't find much. Got an mt07 2019 with full exhaust system, had it on there for prob 2 years now. Considering getting an ecu flash after reading a few different things online. Main points being: air fuel mixture should be corrected - apparently these bikes come out the shop already running lean to meet emission standards. Throwing a full exhaust system on there (or upgraded filter and air box....or both) increases the air take and messes with the fuel air ratio making it run even more lean, hence all the much loved pops and bangs letting it run lean, means the engine runs hotter and could apparently damage your valves should also optimise the performance based on your mods, and now that it breathes better you can correct the ratio and gain some horses or torquages my main reason is to reduce any valve damage tbh, and if i can get some extra fun in the means of torque then thats great also. When I first got my pipe on I did notice some low end torque loss, which i believe is something to do with some loss in back pressure etc. still don't quite understand the full science of that yet. I love my exhaust system, sounds great. Also, "loud pipes save lives" is very much true! Keeps me seen/heard... which is most important after previously having a careless pedestrian run out into the road, looking the other way with earphones on, knocking me off my bike. HOWEVER, i've also read that it can cause a MPG hit, which nobody wants to hear in todays climate. I don't even know what my mpg tbh, but i know its fairly good still despite the cost of a full tank creeping up. I've read online people going from 60 to 45mpg, which sounds like quite a hit. SO, i just wanted to see if anyone on here actually had a flash done and could give me some feedback. Mt07 with full system would be ideal, but appreciate all replies. thanks

nice, definitely save yourself a good amount £. Yea I got quotes from 350 to 420 fitted! So just did same as you and shopped for the cheapest online. how do you go about balancing them, is your manual tyre fitter set up for this also?

yea I've heard from £15 a wheel, upwards. got a good deal online, £165 for a set. So even if its 50 quid that's just over 200 for new tyres fitted, Which is decent really, motorcycle tyres can be costly. I'll get most use out of these tyres as I cna be for i swap em over

good tip, thanks whilst were all here... have any of you had tyres fitted that you've supplied yourself.... how much did you pay? I've only rang one place so far, im in london, i got 50/60 quid roll in roll out. I'll ring a few other places shop around. If its a good enough saving may consider removing the wheels and take them into the shop, but rather not tbh.

tbh i don't have a clue how they do it mate. my original posting was more or less to see if this was a real thing that needed to be done, or just a money maker for them. i think i will just save myself a load of cash and service myself from now on. brake hoses next year most likely air filter isn't listed until 24k... will check and clean the hose though has a valve clearance at 24k interval... i won't be able to do this i assume. is this something people do, or just if its not running correctly?

i see, well they were probably just trying to make it sound like something specialist and essential. I wouldn't be surprised if they charged me for it without doing any "balancing" or work to it at all. After all, how would anyone know without watching them

i was right with ya until i saw how much they were but your right, when they need changing be worth spending the extra to get some braided ones. add a little colour pop with it also sounds handy, i'll look into this yea my mistake, was the fluid that says every 2 years. Got another year before i need to start thinking about hoses then essentially its just cleaning and checking spray patterns of the injectors/adjusting synchronisation. Its in the manual for more or less every service interval. Groups it together with checking idle speed....which i assume is the throttle body balance you are referring to.

cheers guys yea i'm gonna change my plugs too. Just ordered some plugs, oil, filter and rear pads. Never changed brake fluid before - not sure if its been done previously in any of the services. Says brake caliper servicing but not sure if that included fluid changes. So should prob get that done also. I'll have a look on youtube for a tutorial. Just looking at the manual , says to change brake lines every 2 years. Something that needs to be done?
