Welcome and hello. I've had a range of bikes over the last 21 years and it may not be the fastest, but the XTX is the most fun i've had on two wheels.
Do a search on mods and you'll get the picture with regards to making the bike ride like yamaha should have done in the first place. I guess they just knew there were people out there who liked tinkering.
