New bike

I took delivery of the 'new' XT600E on the 7th December 2011. I haven't had the opportunity to ride the bike further than 50ft but I love the way it feels. Now all I need to do is to get a screen, centre stand, rear rack, front rack, decent tyres, soft luggage, large tank, decent sump guard....and loads of dosh to pay for it! That'll be the clincher then.




The existing tyres aren't good enough for green laning, but OK for the road.

New hand guards with ally reinforcing are also on the shopping list


...and a mudguard extension...

The engine is running in this one but I think the carb is gummed up. It'll be added to the list of things to do
