Great review, I can agree with every one of your points.

Ditto. 👍

I use this. 👍

Yep,the sound is awesome,especially as you say,with the QS. 👍

I never had the db killer out,so can't comment. 🤔

Boy did I have a hell of a time last night getting the midpipe to slide on. The OD was fine, but that ID needed a hell of a lot of love on the OEM side. I'm not sure if there was some slag on the inside of the midpipe or the oem diameter was just off. Took a good hour with a sanding wheel to bring it to spec to even slip the bastard on, or at least get it to rotate for adjustment. Should be buttoning it up tonight. Otherwise pretty straight forward.

I had the same problem assembling the Scorpion on my 900 GT.

You should be ' happy as a pig among sh*t ' when you here the awesome sound from that can. 👍👍

If Scorpion did a slip-on for the 9GT, I would have have one again.

Denali Sound Bomb Mini. Disconnect OEM and connect Denali. Job done. 👍

@ZigMerid

Are these any good ?

Welcome to the forum. Good choice of bike.👍

I have the @Clegg78seat mod,and the Yamaha comfort seat. Far better than stock,but not perfect.☹️

Recently added some Kiwav mirrors with running lights and turn signals to the Niken, worth a look.

Nice. I like those. 👍

You should be happy with the 12 O'Clock Labs signals. A quality bit of kit. 👍

Any possibility of getting some 9GT merchandise?

👍 I'd be interested in this too. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

BAGSTER seats - made in France - have been my #1 choice on a couple of past MT-09 Tracers and my late MT-09 SP.   They can be highly customised in various materials and colours.   Not cheap, even though non-EU residents do not pay the ~20% EU VAT (sales tax) which goes a very long way towards shipping costs.

 

+1 on Bagster seats. 👍

Congrats. 👍

Hi

 

I received the top box and plate yesterday and thought I'd install it this morning.

Only three bolts to fix the rack to the bike, so probably a 5 minute job.

How wrong was I! The minimalistic instruction sheet that indicates that you have to remove a few bits didn't help at all, but it turned out that I had to remove many pieces of fairing with loads of push rivets to get the bolts to go in and be able to fasten them. Then in putting back all the bits I'd removed, it was a challenge to remember which plastic fairing pins went were and and manoeuvring everything in to place. Finally got  it done after about 2 hours, but what a PITA. Lost a few fairing pins in the process, and had to replace a couple, but still ended up with a few bits left over.

I'm happy with the result but can't believe Yamaha couln't make it simpler!

Vic

It certainly is a proper PITA of a job !! 👎

I also fitted mine,with no problems whatsoever. 👍

Ahh. Right gotcha. 👍

Welcome. Why not consider a 9GT ? 👍

That should do the trick,and looks good as well. 👍

I swapped these very risers from my 900 GT,to my 9 GT. They fit perfectly.👍  Top quality risers.    Good luck.🤞🏻

Looks great. Is the can easy to remove for work on the caliper, or do you have enough side clearance with it on?

Can is easy to remove. Remove mounting bolt,and slacken clamp at the cat. 👍

Fitted this today. 👍

Was up that way 2 weeks ago. Through Glenshee to Tomintoul, in to Aviemore and back down the A9. Weather was dry and sunny. Brilliant roads and scenery. 👍👍
