I couldn't be sure if the XT is the same, just food for thought as it's been an ongoing issue for you.
You might be right, you might just be right. Have heard it from others as well. As I have been riding through eastern-Europe, central Asia, southeast Asia etc I have had all kinds of different fuel on the tank, so ut makes sense that the injector can be a bit clogged.

So where do I start? Do I start with adding some injector cleaner on the tank? Has anyone any experience with that?
Shall I ask to get the injector cleaned at next full service? Can a normal/average Yamaha garage do this - injector cleaning?

Any advices appriciated...
