It’s been about 5 years but I decided to get back on the bike.

Anyone have a recommended shop in the area? It’s a naked so I can likely do all my own maintenance but a place that can flash my ecu once I throw some pipes on or help with suspension setup.

I ride an mt09.

I used to ride sport bikes for 22 years and this is my first time on a standard / naked. Just getting my sea legs back after some miles 💪🏾

I also know literally one person on two wheels, so I’d love to learn of any meets in the area or smaller group rides.

Ride safe everyone!

I read the posts and the reviews. I think I’m going to love the MT09 SP.

But I also haven’t ridden in 4 years. I started riding 22 years ago on sport bikes. 636, zx6r, cbr600rr … then during a move someone tried to steal my bike and insurance totaled it due to frame damage. That was 4 years ago. I haven’t ridden since.

Is this too much bike for me?

I plan on riding backroads and 0-1 track days a year.

For those that have it, what are your pet peeves about it, if you have any?

I am considering getting a midlife crotch rocket. Are there any awesome mechanics in the area you guys would recommend?
