Hi everyone,

I've just joined up today after picking up my used xt660r this morning, it's my first thumper, I've been a road rider for the last 12yrs having only ridden inline 4's.

I've already has the bike off road down a short track near to me, it wasn't a graceful affair with the surging and snappy throttle response, but it behaved very well and I never knew a bike could grip that well off Tarmac.

I love the grunt in the motor but I know there's better to come once I've got used to how differently it behaves.

Cheers
Si
