Intro. is (hopefully) working now , thanks Guvna. Shakey start for an old fart techno phobe forum novice. Mega forum going on here its gonna take a while to get the suss on everything . Just bought my xtx66ox three weeks ago, it was blue but has had a satin black vinal wrap and Monster energy decals. Also fitted with twin Akrapovics. Enjoying the bike so far, but the typical fueling probs. need sorted. Looking forward to reading up on everything .

Kevs Fuel mod.
 
Thanks for the welcome. Just going to check out Kevs fuel mod and other good stuff. Looking forward to getting my X fully sorted. Also having a little trouble selecting third gear, can you tell me if this has came up in previous threads. It is a little worrying. Thanks again.

With regards to the 3rd gear problems, are you by any chance using some of those beefy off road boots with a very pronounced shape? Because if that is the case you need to unscrew the gear selector pedal off the spindle and refit it one or two teeth down to allow yourself more room with the boot.

If it's a mechanical problem that the 3rd gear won't engage then it's for a mechanic to check.

I've had third gear issues to the point it was jumping out of gear under load...pulled engine apart and i needed 3rd & 4th gears but was cheaper and easier to buy second hand engine. i do have a thread on kev page with some pictures to give you idea what could go wrong

Thanks for the replies chaps. Checked out the gear shifter today, It was slightly loose, so I checked the splines, gave it a clean and refitted it , tightening well. Tried it for a quick blast and (touch wood) it seems OK.
Interesting what you said about the boots Capt`n, I have been wearing MX boots, although when I tested today I was just wearing trainers.
