Hi there,
I have just join the xt660x forum to day, It is a bit funny been the newbie on the site lol.
I had a big crash this year on my k6 GSXR750 and now I can't ride sport bikes any more just because of my injuries, and with me been a mega big bike fan and a massive lover of bikes from the age of 7 where I started motocross I did not want to give them up as its in my blood, I was thinking off going back to motocross again as I need to wear motocross boots my injuries hold me back, So I started looking at supermoto's as the vid's on youtube looked ace and the write ups I read all sounded like supermoto bikes where fun mega fun, and I was after a wr450 to make into a supermoto then I change my mind and was looking at the ktm 690 and 950, I was taking to a work mate who had a xt660x and I was asking him what they are like and I could see it in his face that he liked it very much and he told me to pop around to have a look at his xt660x hes bike has been used in all weathers he got it has a work bike so its been out in snow,ice,rain the lot, He said if you like it right price its yours the bike is on a 08 reg with 16088 miles one owner with S/H, I went home had a chat with the wife went back round had an other look a better look this time with me thinking I could be having this monster, Iv seen on Ebay they are going for 3000-3500 pound that year and miles, I ask my mate how much you thinking....... He said I am in no need to sell it however your a mate and been in a bad way and I want to help you out take it for 1000 pound I was like OK nice one buzzing, ok needs some TLC I got a lot off bike for the money and the TLC can be done over winter, So the story off this is I am now a happy xt660x supermoto owner let the fun start .
Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Alrighty

Hi and welcome
The xt is a great all rounder, I can't for see selling mine,
It's not a light weight race breed supermoto,
A tad hefty, but weight can be stripped. And there's lots of engine mods,
And with a top speed around a ton your licence is safer too
You've got it for a great price, leaving plenty for sticky tyres and mods
Enjoy and ride safe
