hi fellows,
I have 1000 miles (1600 Km) so far on my 07XTX. It cut on me twice during the first days but I think it was just like... get to know your new bike. Especially after the first 600 miles and even more after the 800 miles, I just can't ride slow.
The 07 is wild enough to keep you young >>> I am 36 and feel like 17 again when I bought a used XR 350R Honda --a kick ass bike at that time--
So, going fast and fueling works absolutely fine!
However I don't trust my tires as the rear one always dances like figure skating when I hit the brake even softly. When I accelerate --even smooth-- the rear of the bike goes dancing again like SM racing. Hmmmm ok, we have lousy roads here as well... not raugh tarmac but when I brake or accelerate, I'm in trouble. Even my front wheel sliped 2 days ago using the front brake rather hard..lucky me, I didn't fall! I can't wait to change tyres to the Avon ones. (I read great reviews on the forum)
The fuel consumption goes like... 230 Km with a full tank going smooth ... up to 100km/h (this is like 145 miles with a full tank going up to 60 mph).
Inside the town driving like you are free to enjoy your bike and all it's power.. it goes like 160 Km or 100 miles with a full tank. Mind that it is all stock; no mods at all.
I'd be more than happy to answer any questions from anyone that wants to buy the 07.
enjoy, J_maker
