Hello all. I recently ordered an MT-10 SP, which I pick up on 1st March (new registration year here in UK). I'm looking forward to it very much. I currently run an Aprilia Tuono V4 which is an amazing bike but a bit 'full-on' for just road use. I tried the MT10 out while a friend was testing the new Guzzi Mandello, just for fun and was immediately impressed. I had no intention of changing the Tuono, but I knew I had to have the Yamaha by the end of the ride. The riding position is much more comfortable than that of the Aprilia and the performance is still pretty darned good.
I've asked the dealer to fit heated grips and I'll install R&G tail tidy and rad guards when I get it home. It's always tempting to go for a full Akra set-up, as I have this on the Tuono, but I'm determined to run it for a while in the standard set-up as I suspect its pretty loud without the cat and I haven't heard whether it's possible to re-map the 22+ model's ECU yet (essential with a de-cat, I'd have thought).

BTW, may i ask you how much you paid for MT-10 SP (on road) after paying all taxes excluding registration back in UK...? |
