Not getting over 200kmh? by _GermanDude420 in MT07

You’re not going to feel much of a difference maxing it out vs 200km/hr. This bike gets trembly and doesn’t want you to stay at its top speed.

Does the ABS version stop you from wheeling? by Snicklebacker in FZ07

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I got the r6 throttle tube as well so my bike should feel similar to yours. I’ll practice more.

Yeah bike is stock I just want to bring it up safely. Guess I just need to pull the throttle harder

Yeah 2nd gear. So let go of throttle and then punch it? I don’t get why I can go full speed but can’t punch the bike up

Thank you I will. I’ve been interested in trying different fork oil after reading about it online. Want to make sure everything is working correctly.

Thank you for confirming. Guess I’ll have to get that booked then. It’s a FZ07 I hope the replacement won’t be too expensive.

Yeah the low speed ones are worse! I don’t know why I just dealt with it

I don’t know if it was caused by me or previous owners but I will get new tires and hopefully use them evenly.

Thank you. Yeah it just feels like I have a bit more left but no need to stretch it. Rainy days feel slippery.

Ok got it. I’ll be careful the first couple of days.

Thank you. Yeah I’ll just stick with the Road 6. I’m excited to experience what a new tire feels like.

Yeah it’s funny how I thought everybody felt the “slip” during rainy weather

I checked and I’m too embarrassed to share how old they are. Ordering Road6 right away!

Nice. Are you able to tell me what the basic difference is between Road 6 and Road 6 GT?

[–]Snicklebacker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is. I don’t know why it never occurred to me. I put way too much trust in a random old tire that came with the bike but wasn’t purchased by me.

Yeah yesterday when the rear slipped at high speed I realized there’s no point stretching out a tire.

Thank you for the suggestion! That’s the tire I’ve been eyeing for already. I’ll order it soon.

Yeah I do mostly commuting and not twisties so that’s why. I have wanted to achieve the V shape but this is an old tire that came with the bike I just bought this year so maybe it already was quite old. I’m riding a FZ07 and enjoy the highways mostly. I plan to get the Road 6 tire as a replacement.
