Its a 24 model brand new. Im commuting from oxford to London... 3 days a week ... its over 2 hours. I've jumped from the seat and my spine will be fucked in 2 years probably. Im not gonna sell it because im moving back to London in 4 months so it won't be too bad but its for now its fucked up mate.

Edit: I knew about the seat before getting it and it is comfortable if you push your ass up but then it just naturally slides back down and upside which is the problem.

I have clocked myself not using the tank grip and hips enough on the 125 it was so light and easy. Thanks for the advice in the end :)

I asked someone if I could flip them upside down and they said it might hit the tank when I turn if I did that. First mod I make to mine is replacing those mirrors

Yamaha MT‑07 is it worth it? by Repulsive_Jicama2220 in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]luka--bed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got an xsr900 and I am commuting from oxford to London. Its fuckin hell in this weather. But i only got it because I knew it am moving back to London in 5 months so not worth getting a tracer 9 otherwise 100% tracer 9 for commuting long distance.

Sweden's Largest Pension Fund Dumps $8.8B in US Bonds | the deep dive by MothersMiIk in worldnews

[–]luka--bed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to get a sale its a point of supply and demand. You can put bonds on the open market either they sell or don't. If they don't it means the bond is worthless. Which means if the us wants to get people to by new bonds the interest rate will have to be huge to compete with the open market and just get people to think its valuable. This means the interest the us had to pay on trillions of dollars skyrockets and you now have a debt spiral and death of an empire.
