Hello I’m Davo from Central Queensland Australia. I will probably be purchasing a new MT10SP in the next few weeks or so, if everything goes to plan. From what I’ve read they look like a great package.
So in the meantime I’m just going to have a nose around the forum and try to get up to speed on what’s happening in MT10SP world.
Thanks

Hi Will from Canberra here, I have had 18 bikes and the MT10 is the best of them. Does everything well and the sound the engine is awesome with the Akrapovic can.

Current bike sold today. Tomorrow I’m going away working for a week. When I get back it’s order a new MT10SP time  The plan is falling into place. |

Hope it works out! We don't get the SP here in the US and many of us love our "regular" FZ/MT-10's.

Why wouldn’t they release in the USA? I think they feel the demand wouldn't be there.
I hope they change their minds.

Seems odd to me. Massive population there compared to Australia. Surely they would sell more in the USA than Australia.

Seeing how they released an MT-09 SP for '21 I'm REALLY hoping they'll release a -10 SP for '22. It's sad that for 2021 the MT-09 has a much better suspension/tech package than the flagship -10 does. |

How does that thing dangling off the back not just snap off? What is the go to tail tidy you would recommend and why?

It's sad that for 2021 the MT-09 has a much better suspension/tech package than the flagship -10 does.It's right for tech package but not for suspension. I've had a 09SP before getting a 10, and the 10 is far away better/efficient. The Ohlins is a first price ... |

Time to start researching Yamaha’s break in theories, setting it up for solo registration, tail tidy, tail bag options, does it come with guarding at the front?

Yeah I’ve burnt about a tank and half of fuel through it. That power wheelie thing is addictive. Riding position is very similar to my last ride so I felt right at home very quickly. Just hand to adjust a few levers. That ohlins stuff is unreal. Good brakes. The coloured dash is pretty trick. I’m a very happy man. Once it’s run in I suspect I will be even happier, if that’s possible, hopefully my license survives that period  |
