How I got my MT 07, and a evening ride.

Beauty vid there bud!

Thanks, I appreciate that. Slowly trying to create more content. Do you have an MT07 or do you ride?

@@nickandmotorcycletime5246 Got diagnosed with Degenerative spine disease 15 years ago @ 27 years old, spent almost a decade stuck in a chair. Spent the last couple years strengthening and working jobs I could do, saved up a day at a time and now I'm finally ready to say FK you to my chronic pain and meds, and I just bought my first bike. A 2023 MT-07 in Matte Raven Black. Going to spend my days exploring Vancouver Island and riding with my brother. Got a carbon fiber folding cane I can throw in my backpack :)

@@islerenner whoa man… good for you!! I feel for you big time, that must be a tough way to live your life. I have nothing but respect for you man, that’s super inspiring. And sweet bike! I’ll get a new one once I wear this one out. And Vancouver Island eh, I used to live in Van, and Whistler. I miss the west coast very much, I’m planning to ride from where I am to Alaska after my undergraduate degree, and Vancouver Island is definitely on the list.

@@nickandmotorcycletime5246 Well make sure to keep in touch, and if you ever find yourself on the island, you have a place to rest up for your adventures. Please to meet you brother.

@@islerenner I appreciate that big time man! You’re good people. I would love to know someone local to see some cool spots on the bikes. Take care of yourself and ride safe!

Nice. What exhaust did you get?

[@andraskiss8958]

glad you like it, stay safe and enjoy it! where do you ride? which state? the roads look pretty rough

[@nickandmotorcycletime5246]

Yeah, so far it’s been a great bike. I’m in Canada, just above Maine. Where I live the roads are pretty hilarious. Especially the route I took tonight. What about you?

[@andraskiss8958]

ah, thought it was the us, sorry I’m from Hungary, I ride an 890 duke Just happened upon your video

[@nickandmotorcycletime5246]

@@andraskiss8958 cool! KTMs are wicked bikes also. That’s a parallel town also is it not?

[@andraskiss8958]

@@nickandmotorcycletime5246 yep, 270’ crank, I think the mt07 and the 790-890s have the best, most unique sounding inline 2 engines I just ordered an sc project s1 can for mine, cant wait

[@nickandmotorcycletime5246]

@@andraskiss8958 nice!! Yeah, couldn’t agree more about the sound. It’s incredible. I’m assuming KTM probably has better quality all around than the mt07, I’ve ridden one KTM 500 and it was perfection.
