Pete Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 .....at the Yam dealers! Fantastic machine, and a big step up in build quality and sophistication from my XT600. I really like the twin high level pipes, and apparently they are 10bhp up on the old 600 as it delivers about 58bhp. Anyone else checked them out yet? BleedinYanks need not answer....cos the nearest you'll get to one is looking at the photo above! Big fat lardy cruisers is all you boys can handle!

liquidcooled Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 aye it looks nice pete. very cool looking 8) you thinking about getting one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted June 4, 2004 Author Share Posted June 4, 2004 Well....there could be a house move on the horizon...me and the wife have moved 22 times in the last 22 years. :shock: So if things work out as planned, then an XT660 could be on the cards by the end of the Summer. I really enjoy the ease of riding the XT, but miss the power of the pure street bikes. Overtaking now has to be planned very carefully TBH, cos you can run out of steam. But at this present time, I can't see me switching back to the more traditional style bike cos this thing is much more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 5, 2004 Author Share Posted June 5, 2004 The pipes are more at the side than underneath dibey. It's only the end of the pipes that are under part of the seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
