Tried mine offroad yesterday
Tried mine offroad yesterday bit dissapointed ive fitted TKC 80s sump guard 14 tooth front sprocket and done the TPS airbox and Mixture mods the bike is not bad on road but off its a different beast alltogether,
although on road the snatchyness of the injection seems almost gone off road it is very appearent that its still there almost impossible to scuttle along in 2nd without masses of jerkiness, the TKC80s seem alive they squirm and throw you sideways for no reason the steering is vauge to say the least and all in all not a very good day, 1st time ive come off on a trail in 3 years,
I recently sold my XR650R as it was kick start only but an extreme offroader it had a set of ITC tyres ill try to get a set of them and fit them to the XTR
normally the two guys I offroad with are left in my wake yesterday they were having to wait for me one on a DRZ400 the other on a TTR600
maybe im running the tyres with too much pressure in them as the DRZ was running at 20 rear and 18 front im up around the 26 mark front and rear which is what Yamaha recommend
What do you guys recon
