Hello from belfast
Hey everyone,
Im dave and im from belfast, northern ireland. I have a red 06 xt660 that i only just bought last week. This is my first fuel injected bike and previous bikes have included an nsr125 a 400 bandit and then a 750 bandit (heavy jap import). I havent been riding that long but love the xt660 so far. The bike is standard except for a k&n air filter the previous owner put on and it has 3500 miles on the clock. Im not sure which mods im gonna start with although i did see a throttle twist mod by kev that seems pretty basic to do as im a graphic designer and have no mechanical knowledge at all, complete newbie lol!! Im interested in the throttle mod as ive noticed this wee bike isnt the greatest round town. As soon as i let throttle off it is very responsive and seems to jerk forward, i also have had to drop into second gear while cornering as the bike hasnt had a good enough pull in third to take the corner smoothly. Again though im not sure if this throttle mod will fix this or if its just my inexperience on riding a fuel injected, single cylinder bike. Anyhows, that was a bit of a long introduction, really glad to be here and im looking forward to having some proper fun on my bike if our irish summer ever decides to grace us with its presence lol!! Pleased to meet you all :-)
