PRO GuIDe MT-09 gets the Powerbronze treatment CELEBRATING their 30th anniversary this year, British specialist Powerbronze has released an extensive range of parts for the Yamaha MT-09. The new product line includes an aftermarket screen in a choice of three heights and 22 colour choices, including iridium finish. Powerbronze’s headlight protectors are manufactured from thermo-formed acrylic and designed to protect the headlamp lens. Supplied with 3M Dual Lock fixings, which allow easy removal for cleaning. To give the MT-09 a more aerodynamic racing profile, Powerbronze manufactures a seat cowl, which fits over the existing seat with no modification needed to the bike’s existing bodywork. The cowl is available in a choice of black, white or carbon look. The rear hugger from Powerbronze for the MT-09 is supplied pre-drilled with all mountings. Made from a high impact plastic for a smooth internal finish, it uses steel-sleeved rubber mounting points to dampen vibration and avoid cracking. It is available in black, white, carbon look and carbon fibre with either gold or silver coloured meshed vents (replacement mesh kits are available as a separate item in blue, red and black). Their MT-09 cooler grill is designed to enhance the machine's appearance and protect the radiator from debris. Made from polished stainless steel, the cooler grills require no modification to fit. Swingarm and fork protector kits in injection moulded high impact plastic are supplied with the necessary high tensile studs (de-embrittled) and hardware. Accident protection options also include CNC machined high impact plastic and aluminium crash posts that fit in a choice of locations. The 380mm option is the highest of the three screens made by Powerbronze for the MT-09 POWERBRONZE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES Littlehampton, UK Tel: [phone] [email protected] www.powerbronze.co.uk Fork and swingarm protector kits are supplied with all necessary fittings CNC-machined crash posts can be mounted in a choice of positions Blue mesh inserts and optional colourways for their pre-drilled rear hugger Thermo-formed acrylic headlamp protectors MT-09 seat cowl in black, white or carbon look Polished stainless steel cooler grill Schuberth expands SR1 helmet line SCHUBERTH has expanded its SR1 helmet line with the introduction of new graphics and colourways.
