Hello folks,I'm new here and new to xt660 ownership.
I've been around bikes most of my life from motocross in my early years to ever bigger road bikes over the last 15 years, ranging from Honda monkeybikes to hyper sports bikes. Recent years have steered me to transalp,varaderos,xt600 and currently a n r1200gs, but the xt660x has arrived to try.

I did test ride a 2005 xtx about 8 years back and upon reflection I now think I expected to much from its sub 50bhp engine as I was used to 100+bhp wagons,but time and my mentally to riding has changed towards more comfortable rides.
I'm just waiting on this xt's seat arriving back from the upholstery shop sonic can enjoy this new purchase.
Can someone confirm that although this bike is registered 2007 it's a 2006 model. Is this correct and what are the differences?
Cheers folks
