  • Talking through my 2015 ABS Model Yamaha MT07. Click see more...
    This is not a show bike! It's been used to commute every day all through Winter.
    I'm also not bashing Oxford, I do have other Oxford products that are still working fine, this is just my experience with a pair of their indicators and bar ends.
    Anything I didn't mention is standard.

    I've addressed the chain "issue" several times but people are still commenting on it. The video contrast is stupidly high so it makes it look worse than it is but I can assure you my chain is fine and lubed, as stated above the bike is used daily and all it takes is for it to be sat outside work for a day in the wet for the chain to turn slightly orange anyone who commutes daily in Winter will understand.

    Those if you didn’t know those black and yellow stripping was the original Color scheme of all Yamahas ! Both rode and Dirt bikes. My first bike was a YZ 80 with that color scheme...... and man it looks so retro.... when I get my 09 or 07 I will be getting the old Yammy original wrap.....so sick and retro. Kudos to you.

    Nice bike and good review. If you have a look on eBay you can pick up led indicators very reasonably priced and there are several designs including arrow shapes with integrated daytime running lights and dual red running plus brake lights at the rear. I have arrows on mine and they are still going strong with no condensation. Don't be put off by the cheap price or the fact that they are Chinese.

    Just stumbled on your channel. That's a great job that you have done on your MT07, such an individual look, that's what I try and do with my bikes. I test rode one of these last year and it was a blast, but I wasn't too impressed with the suspension. I believe the new model now has upgraded suspension. I ride all year also, but it's a job keeping the rust at bay with all that salt on the roads. Ride safe and good luck.👍☘
