Wonder why Yamaha went to all the trouble to make a special garbage version of the MT07?
It is an insult and a pay back for Casey Stoner flogging them in MotoGp on Ducati's and Handa's. Didn't realize that did you. In Eurpoe they just put a throttle restrictor on, but here ECU specially made so it is a complete pain in the butt to make it into a proper bike. The reduction in capacity ( and resulting compression drop) would be fine but they had to make sure Australians couldn't go too fast because they believe us to be useless riders. Believe it...I do...sort of.
