    Throttle bodies sync / carbtune

    I used my Carbtune to check mine, and I don't know if it was coincidence but an airbox sensor had to be replaced soon afterwards. I've not bothered since, as you can't adjust them if they're wrong anyway.

    07 Tracer

    I swapped my MT for one, and it's brilliant! I much prefer it to the MT. It's more planted, less frisky. Performance is down a bit (mostly because my wife is on the back ;)) , but handling is superb, which makes up for it. So far, economy is comparable. Lovely bike, and the red is a fantastic...

    MT 70 Comparison MPG?

    The worst mpg for my MT is 62, the best (so far) is 71. I should be doing a couple of long runs this month, so I'll see what happens then.

    MT 07 Silverstone meet

    Forgive the cynic in me, but how is your club any more official than we are on here? I don't see any official Yamaha endorsement...

    OEM heated grips

    If it's the size of the control switch which is putting you off, have a look at Daytona heated grips. Their switch is tiny compared to others, and the grips are very good.

    I understand it to be Desaxe (same as my wife's Hyundai i10)

    Heated grips

    I never knew it was an option when I bought mine. I went for Daytona heated grips. If you do a search there's more information on heated grips in at least 2 previous threads.

    Changing head light

    As long as your replacement bulb is the same wattage as the original it should be fine. If you try a higher power one you could have problems.

    Pre-load

    Maybe so; 1 is the softest setting.

    Pre-load

    You'll need probably need it on about setting 2, so one or two steps anti-clockwise from the stock setting.

    Heated gloves or heated grips or hand guards or a mix of all three?

    I use a set of Daytona heated grips, which have a pre-heat function and four heat settings. They also have a nice neat controller which is about a quarter the size of the Oxford one. There's pictures on here somewhere. In the cold weather I add on Acerbis X-Tarmac hand guards, which I bought...

    I saw Badger's MT at MFN last night (and 2 others), but I didn't see Mr Badger

    Unreliable Fuel Gauge

    I don't think it's predictive, but it's definitely not linear.

    Daytona Hot Grips - Anyone have experence?

    I've got Daytona grips on mine, connected through a relay. RTFM! Hold the button for 3 seconds to switch them on and they automatically go into the 4 minute pre-heat cycle. Each successive press of the button increases the heat level. You won't need them to pre-heat for the full 4 minutes, or...

    Advice please guys

    I'd invest in some foot powder to stop my feet itching! I've seen this bike, and I wouldn't sell it. It's a credit to you - loads of mods but all nicely done, nothing out of place or gaudy/garish which we've seen on others.

    Lathe

    I've got a lathe, and I'm not a million miles away from you. Let me know what size and quantity you're looking for, and I'll see if I can do them.

    Yamaha MT 07 - TRACER (PS-mockup)

    It would need a better pillion seat before I'd buy it. I had a test ride on a Tracer - very nice bike, and very quick!
