Hi From Moggy in Telford
 
Hi I've been on the forum for some time but parked my XT660Z up for 2 years due to spine injury.



Been bolted back together and up an running again.

I had a Motopodd Sidecar fitted for a few months to the XT660Z. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/j...8/P1040008.jpg

Its time to take take the Sidecar and go Solo Again. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/j...8/P1040010.jpg

Getting an Aluminium box on a rope to put in my Tank Bag so I can get my leg over and pull it up and back into Tank Bag.

Welcome back, Moggy. Did the Ten pull the car easily?

:hello: and :welcome: to :660:

First time since we've started this forum way way back in 2004 that I've seen a side car fitted to an XT, and you know what? I think it's very cool. :clap: :clap:

Congratulations and get well soon

Yes, one hell of a lot better than expected.

Just had to hold throttle open longer and harder in second gear before change up.

If you used the solo style throttle in second you got a slight tank slapper. Compensate by turning handle bars away from side car just before opening throttle and it went straight.

Killed a few kerbs with the side car wheel and frightened a pedestrian or two before getting width right. The pedestrians saw the XT but not the sidecar.

You can carry a lot of Beer in the sidecar.
