cmbiker Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Greetings! Going to purchase a used 2018 MT 07 this Friday. Looking forward to learning more about the bike from this forum and what mods to make. The previous owner drilled some holes in the exhaust which are covered by the shroud. The bike sounds much louder than stock, but not obnoxious. When the funds are available, maybe next year, I'm thinking of going with an Akrapovic full exhaust and getting a flash tune. My first mods will be a tail tidy (fender eliminator) kit and some frame sliders. Anyone have any recommendations for either mods? I was leaning toward New Rage Cycles or Yoshimura for the tail tidy. Haven't researched frame sliders yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
208MT07 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Welcome! Nice choice on the color haha. I personally run a Moto Dynamic fender eliminator, and I have frame sliders from T-Rex Racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmbiker Posted November 30, 2019 Author Share Posted November 30, 2019 Thanks everyone for the warm welcomes and recommendations for fender eliminators. Just have to wait until the dealership gets the parts in and installs them, then I can ride her home. In the meantime, I'll have to figure out a way to make more room in the small garage. Space is quite tight as it is now with my other two bikes in it. I've been riding for more than 30 years and have owned mostly inline 4's, except for a Versys 650 years back, and have never really felt that parallel twins did it for me. All that changed as soon as I twisted the throttle on this MT 07 during the test ride. It was pure joy. It is by no means close to any of the fastest or most powerful bikes I've owned over the years, but the way it makes power and the fun factor of riding it is undeniable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Welcome and congrats! It appears you discovered very quickly what this bike was made for. Have fun and stay frosty! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb06c Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Interesting timing on getting the bike - hope you got a good deal. Our first snow in the city is forecast for tomorrow and Monday, and I’m reluctantly gonna put my bike up for a few days until I know how bad (or not) it’ll stick around. hope to see you out and around this winter, barring snow. Congrats and enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
