Hi, new owner here

I just got my xt660za on wednesday.
Ive har 2 XT`s, KLR650, a 91`xt600z, Africa Twin, TDM850, and now finally a brand new bike!
I drove 220km the first evening, and I like it, even though I might change the saddle for a slightly taller and straight one.
ABS is wonderful, other that that I dont know it there is any differences to the older one?

I live in Alesund, Norway, and we have plenty of twisties and cool roads over here, so I cant wait to get back on the bike.

Cheers
Osmund

Hi mate & welcome.

Great choice of bike, you'll love it for what you've got planned.

Be great to see some pictures!

Just hope it's not hearing aid beige

Cheers, Boneman

Hi Osmund and welcome aboard.You picked the right colour mate - the only colour good enough to be used every year since 2008!

As from this year - yes, same money, from your dealer.

Thanks guys.
Yeah, I saw those black ones and I had to have them. Everyone else has alu-coloured, so I had to be a little different
Got the heated grips and centre stand as well.
Ive ordered the first service next tuesday, so I have to get out and drive... If it just wasnt pouring down..
