Picking up 2012 xtx on Friday. Can't wait
Took the demo xtx out at the weekend and loved it, so couldn't wait to get me hands on one. Previously only ever had sports bikes, last being a cbr600rr which was great fun but found them far too quick for me to enjoy.
If there's anyone around the Kent area that fancys going for a ride then give me a message. Also if there's any problems I should be looking out for or advise for the xt's, then I'm all ears Cheers ollie |
