Today was a good day for the XT 660.
Lobbed on a pair of filters, stage 1 and stage 2. (Stage 2 replaces the outside wall of the airbox) which in theory with my cans makes approx 6.5bhp over standard. May not seem like a lot, but when you're starting with less than 50bhp, it's 13% or so... LOL. Think about that on your Gixer 1000 and that's 20bhp increase.

Also got my fork spacers from Crust made up.
These go in the top of teh forks giving it a stiffer front end. Not fitted these yet as the bike is at home and the spanners in the office. But tehy should in threory make it a bit less bouncy on the back roads.


HAd a cracking race home on the bike.. well, he thought it was a race, i was pissing about and waiting for him. Seeing a bloke trying so hard in one of them Seat Leon FR things was quite funny as i was cruising on the lanes
The XT is bloody brilliant at what it does and truely excels on the back lanes.
Top top fun
So much so that i can't see any way i'm not taking it to Parc Algar next year even though it will be obliterated on the straights, it's just very 'me' and i truely adore riding it.
