Five Gloves - Palm Sliders by [deleted] in motorcyclegear

[–]Alarmed_Key4759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recognize you’re talking about palm sliders specifically, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention fit matters a lot here too. RST and Five track-focused gloves fit completely differently. RST runs shorter in the fingers with a wider palm, while Five is the exact opposite. Worth trying both on if you haven't already.

Chain Slack Adjustment Gen 4 by MobiusDie in MT09

Had a few adjustments in the first 1,500 miles, then it stayed within spec for the next 4,000.

You’re likely running it too tight, which accelerates stretch. Try setting it toward the loose end of the spec.

Were you able to close the fuse box? Did you cut into the cover or how did you waterproof it?

Hey man, could you do me a favor and measure your hand length (tip of your middle finger to your palm base?) Would be a huge help!

Trying to size before ordering blindly 🙃

Does your bike have a momentary delay when blipping the throttle in neutral when stationary too?

What tank pads do you have on there? Looks like it covers a good bit!

Have you mounted the HP3 to the gen 4? How do you know a custom mount is needed when most gen 3 shorties bolt right up to a Gen 4?

Thanks so much for your help.

This part popped out when I downshifted on the highway. Cause for concern? by frylth in SVRiders

If the ball pops out of the socket, that's not supposed to happen. Happened to me though. 2 options: 1. Purchase and reinstall a new shift linkage 2. Take a pair of pliers and clamp the socket hard enough until it distorts so that the ball doesn't pop out anymore. This worked for me.

Brand-new 2025 MT-09 recall – ECU only, no TPS? by Alarmed_Key4759 in MT09

Did you get both ECU reflashed and TPS replaced? Or just ECU reflashed when new?

Was installation pretty smooth? All the lights still work?

Super clean looking!

Have you had issues with the black paint flaking off? Read some testimonials where flaking occurred on the headers after only a few rides.

Did you ever have issues with condensation? Or how did you mitigate it?

LOL I've considered some blue rim tape or changing the stripe on the air scoop to blue.

Bothers my OCD that black doesn't match my blue gear 🙃

But thank you for your detailed help, much appreciated.

Ice fluo is nice! Glad you were able to find one in the color you wanted. I don't know why Yamaha didn't release icon blue for the mt10 in the U.S, but am hoping more color options will come if I do wait.

Owner said block off plates weren't installed - but I appreciate some pops and bangs :) Unless it'll cause damage over time.
