jorge Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Hello everyone. I'm Portuguese. Bought my MT-07 in October 2016, new. I signed up to research information to choose the best (required) improvements (suspension) to the bike. Waiting for the Bitubo JBH Fork Cartrige review to decide... Here is a picture of the bike: Waiting for the Akrapovic, this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewnguyen23 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I'm also thinking about the Akra Titanium w/ no DB killer!! Sounds like a beast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axemanblue Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Congrats on the bike (and on the pipe). Hard to go wrong with an Akro, IMO. Welcome to the fold. What type of riding are you planning to do with it? That might impact the suspension upgrades that are best suited for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of riding are you planning to do with it? That might impact the suspension upgrades that are best suited for you. I'm just riding on the road. My last bike was a CBR 929... I want the bike as good as possible, within reason. If the fork cartridge of bitubo is too harsh, like the rest, I'll go to the drop valves... Maybe Matris FSE...

Agreed, if you're not going to push the bike hard the stock suspension is OK, but just ok, depending still on what you can put up with. It's definitely not a requirement.

I'll update the suspension, it's settled. I have felt most of the limitations that many have described. As for "push the bike hard" I like to think so (no error), but only when i can...
