Only been a member for 5 mins........


......and I'm already in trouble with the the Minister of War and Finance. I'm going to be spending a bit of time here that's for sure, so I guess I'm going to be spending time on the Backbench again, oh well :-)

I've not long bought a 2012 XT 660Z and am loving it. Coming from a KLR, I certainly don't find the Tenere to be slow. Even in its stock form it goes well. Just put some Barrett's pipes on and already it revs freer. Though there does seem to be a flat spot when accelerating. Starving for fuel I'm guessing.
So I think Kevin and I have to do some business and see where we go from there.
Looking forward to learning heaps......

Hello and welcome, I�ve been on here a week and had my XTR a month. You will find a wealth of knowledge on here if you look hard enough and plenty of like minded people with petrol in their veins......

Mine are generally filled with alcohol...hic.....

Running twin pipes, sorry what was the other thing? Can't hear what your saying(hehe), without the db killer at the moment. They're loud when riding but apparently not to bad when following.

Love the fit and look of the Barrett pipes as well, seem to follow nice matching lines. Got the Barrett racks as well!

Matt
Like the look of the racks, they're next on the shopping list. Although maybe I should talk to Kevin first, hmmm......so many decisions.
