Hello from Melbourne Australia
Hello fellow XT riders.
I just signed up today due to my curiosity as to how many other punters ride this type of bike. Here in Melbourne and it's surrounding landscape, it appears to me that most bike riders are becoming very fragmented in their groups and sub groups. BMW riders only nod to BMW riders, Ducati riders only nod to Ducati riders, Harley riders only nod to Harley riders, Sports bike riders only nod to Sports bike riders, Trail bike riders only nod to trail bike riders. Where does an XT fit in? When I pull up at a cafe or Bakery on my XT, well the sub groups dont appear to respond in a manner as if to know if I'm of the same breed as them or not (the Yamaha XT 660r is in fact a motorcycle). For heavens sake dont look different or act differently or ride a different bike! I love my XT because in the world I live in, the roads are not that smooth, the power of my bike is well suited to my skill level, it's huge fun to rideand it's comfortable for my 180cm 100kg frame. I have not seen many XT's in Melbourne (3 maximum in a city of 3.5 million) and I wanted to know how many People in other parts of our ever shrinking world ride an XT. Regards Tanjil |
