Hi all

I fancy one of these, I see that some of the 2017 to 2018 ones are £10k now with low mileage etc versus new bikes around £14500 for a 2020 bike.

To my untrained eye, all the year's seem to have the same kit with minimal changes. Are there any significant model year differences?

Thanks
Matt

get one, they are fun fun fun, the standard one i have though, its a few bells and whistles and colour changes between the years, save money and get the standard bike, unless you need the fancy suspension etc, the noise with the decat is awesome, can be LOUD though

They're all the same. I've had mine since 2017.

They are all the same 17 onwards, same for non SP.

The 2016 bikes had different fuelling maps which were more snatchy and either the power or traction control settings are are named differently. A,b,std vs 1,2,3 or something along those lines.

They are fun and bulletproof bikes. Firm up the rear preload to stop it wheelieing everywhere as it just gets annoying after a short while.

No real changes between the years to be honest. Standard model 2016 bikes didn't come with a quick shifter but can be retrofitted easily.

They're great bikes, but to really make it come alive a remap is needed to sort out the throttle and unleash a few more HP. Mine made 155 at the rear wheel after a day on the dyno and the fueling is now sublime. I wish I had it done earlier.

If I were to buy another one, I don't think i'd go for an SP. The trick suspension is nice, as is the TFT dash, but personally i'd spend the extra cash on aftermarket suspension, a decat, remap and an R1 / Brembo radial master at the front.

I'd quite like one of these as my all round bike but the fuel range is a pretty poor for touring and commuting.

Cheers all, used bike it is.

I borrowed a 2018 one when my tracer was in for a service, what a weapon, loved every second of it.

Hi all, resurrecting this thread.

So i think i'm sold on the idea of the MT10, fuel range is a shame though but i can live with it. Funny that they make an MT10 touring with only a 120mile tank range lol.

Anyway, i have read alot of the reviews, advice, etc and i think i'm open to either a none-SP or an SP, whichever seems to be the best price point, i don't specifically need the SP extras, but wouldn't turn them down if the price is right. I'll be shopping for a 2018+ bike i think.

Now i notice that this year, there is a 60th anniversary MT10, in orange and white colours.
Presumably, this is just a colour scheme change, and the rest of the bike is the same as a none-anniversary, none-SP, MT10?

Thanks again
Matt

Morning all,

Quick one, if a 2016 'Standard/A/B' bike has a snatchy throttle, can it be corrected? If so, how, ideally in the north west.

Thanks
Matt

I've just had a postal remap done by Junction 33 in Lancaster... He mentioned doing an MT10 on his facebook page recently.
