Potential XT owner saying hello
Hello,
After the last few years of sitting behind traffic on multi cylinder superbikes or in my garage fettling temperamental Italian V twins, I think I have seen the light! On the odd occasion when I get an hour or two of "me time", I reckon there's more fun to be had down the B roads of Wiltshire and the odd foray down a green lane. Consequently I am in the market for a big single supermoto type machine, and the XT660X appears to fit the bill. I shall enjoy perusing the forum to try and learn what to look out for as a potential buyer and welcome any advice forthcoming Cheers Andy |

Welcome mate to the site mate. Like you I ride sports bikes I have a blade,fz1 and tiger. And xt. Something about the xt660 that is just fun. When you by yours. Look for a 1 or 2 owner bike with really low miles and mint condition they are out there. I would not buy one that has been well used by 5 or 6 owners. I bought 2 xt660 about a month ago one is a 2 owner and the other is 1 owner from new both under 10.000 miles both in show room condition and never had any mods fitted. Both 2007 reg one was �2200 stole that one the other �2700 that has 6500 miles and came with 3 months warranty. I bought 18 months ago a xt660x 2011 one owner with 3,600 miles on it and again show room condition for �2900 but I did steal that as sold it for �4000 3 months later. So when buying yours hold out for the right one as there is a lot of crap out there but also so some real bargains if you keep looking and jump on them as soon as they are listed both mine came from 50+ owners . And the people on this site are always happy to help. Happy shopping mate

Thanks for the welcome and the quick reply. I saw one on
Ebay, 2005, looks immaculate with considerable extras, a bit overpriced but willing to haggle. Then he said
9 former owners!
