good day to you all, recently bought my first ever yammy a lovely xtx, i had no van to bring it back and my insurance at the time wanted an extortionate amount to add my new bike and remove two others, an additional �600 on top,

luckily a good friend said we could pick it up and stick it in the back of his car...... hmmmm its a 1.2 vaxhaul agila, knowing hes accomplished the impossible many times before we set off, an hour later we arrived checked the bike ect, beautiful i must say



after checking it all over and singing the paper we moved onto the next task, to somehow squeeze this big girl in the back, we dropped the front suspension and took of the headlight, as we managed to get the front end in the landowner turned up and said hell grab the forklift aha,


wasn't much different to this^

with his help we managed to squeeze it in

somehow i managed to get me insurance down to �60 and ive been nonstop riding it since!

Hello there and welcome aboard.
Sounds like an interesting start to your xt ownership.
