It's a shame Yamaha went with these forks for the XSR700/MT-07. I love my XSR700 but the stock forks really detract from what is otherwise a fantastic bike.
@karl schauff. I think the suspension si good enough for begginer riders. For me it was fine for more than 14.000km. Only after this mileage I started to bottom out the suspenion when I pick up the riding speed. But this shouldn't be excuse for Yamaha because there are some budget bike with better suspension (like the rc390) If you like the bike you can upgrade the suspenion or you will sell it and go for bifferent bike.
