Talking Hello

Hello from northern england. im new here.
I'm looking for advice and help with my newly purchased xt660 z tenere.
Only had a couple of short runs on it but like it already- changed from a drz400sm as I got sick of the short tank range and buzz.
Going for a look around now.

and to

Shows us a pic of your bike. There is indeed lots to read, but give it a couple of hours and your knowledge will benefit from a lot of info. You'll be hooked in no time.

Once you are interested in getting some high performance DNA filters or MTC after market exhaust get in touch with me by pm and I will give you a quote including a special forum member discount.

Enjoy the forum

Hello again, will post some photos soon but at the minute it's a stock black unregistered 2010 bike purchased last week for �5250.
I think I got a good deal on it and have just fitted an R&G tail tidy.
I can't believe the over engineered and bloody heavy tail section and will be looking at other ways to shed some weight.
I haven't got the tax disc yet and can't ride it until the first of march and it's killing me !

I'm just up the road from you, and more often through the summer we (Mrs GULGO and I ) can be found lurking at our 'Holiday Home' (Pikey van to you and me) just outside Allonby.

So if you need 'eyes' or just want to see what modifications/upgrades etc are available for these bikes, and you want to see it in the flesh, drop me a PM - any excuse for a run out !

Jollies in cumberland

Well ive clocked up 650 miles since the 1st march including commuting, Honister and Whinlatter Passes, a stunning run over Berker Fell and today we went off roading near Loweswater. Had a bit of trouble in a deep rut but other than that the bike is fantastic. First service tommorrow and more shenanigans as long as the weather holds.
Pictures below but not the best quality as taken on the iphone.
will do this route again.
