2017 YAMAHA MT-09 MARK WHITE
I’VE QUITE A good boss. Not only have I failed to get my words in on time for this very installment and he’s not punched me in the face (although he does manage to make me feel as guilty as my mum did when she found out that I spent most of my college years playing pool in the local pub) but he’s graced me with a long-termer to tazz around on, and he actually listens when I talk about what I’d like to do to it. So, after mentioning I’d like to fiddle with the MT-09’s riding position, it shouldn’t have been a surprise to find a pair of rearsets, adjustable bar risers and handlebars to stick in them when I skulked into the office to give my most recent excuse for late homework.
