my problems so far with my xt660r
well, it's a bit hard for me o start, but i'm starting to be a bit confused if i like my 2007 xt660r or not. so the history. when i bought it, it was 2 years old with 2000 miles on the clock. i now the previous owner - my neibourgh - so he had the bike from new and looked after it very well - never in the rain, or off road, only the ocasional sunday ride - hence the low miles. the i bought it. i live and work in london, so i travel to work and back, i do about 1000 miles a month on it. the problems started at 4000 miles: head bearings - top and bottom of the triple clamp, around 8000 miles both fork seals had failed and now at 15000 miles i have an electrical problem - the ignition fuse keeps blowing - even the mechanics at my local yamaha garage have not find a solution yet. they have my bike for the last 8 days and are as baffled as i am. still not sorted yet. i'm dreading to think about the cost yet. the bike was never abused, never off road, only to work and back. it'm my 9th bike but i never had anyproblems with a bike so new and with so few miles.
it is just me or you had similar problems?
