ME old man got an X!!

Hey all,

Managed to con me old man into getting an xtx!



So far he loves it...but....he has only been riding it 48hrs and has allready reached the lean limitations of his Pirelli mtro 1s.

He says that they have a nice round profile but they suddenly end and drop off. What better tyres are out there???

He wants some that will let him scrape the pegs hehe

taa all.

He's got it to keep an eye on you, and maybe stop you crashing !

Well so far on the standard issue tyres I get good lean angles and have never touched anything down. U need to make Kevs suspension mods if you want good handling. Have fun !!!
