Re: Fueling/carb

Ive left mine. It is a slight annoyance but like I say only at low speeds. The bike is pulling like a train and is really fantastic fun. Maybe come winter down time it will have the once over

Re: Fueling/carb

No its not the gear Im in. Its when Im travelling at a given speed, especially more noticable at the slower speed roads and the throttle is only open a quarter twist say. It happens if Im in 2nd at 15/20 mph say, but I notice it more for the speed you would travel around town roads

Fueling/carb

OK so Im getting on really well with the XT600. I keep thinking its a bit slow, but then I think back to my XTZ660 and re read some of my posts and I rekon Im plonking along at about the same speed... 60/65mph. Thats not so much slower than my new Tenere I had also... as I used to sit on that at 75 ...

If I was riding 50/50 I would go with E07s on rear and E10 on front

Re: Errol's 1995 XTZ660 4UX

That colour looks stunning. I must admit that Ive been wishing I never sold my old Tenere as the twin headlamp 4my has got to be one of the prettiest bikes out there
