Yamaha XT 660 R
Hi,
After much thinking in the end I decided to go for a Yamaha XT660 R from 2006 -injection- doing a few modifications to it.
I chose this bike because:
1. It´s a powerful bike and comfortable for riding at a speed around 120km/hr
2. It´s a trail bike so I can use it whenever I have to
3. It´s not that heavy -guess around 155 kg or so-
The only thing was that it was too high -1.86cm- so that I had to lower the hight with links to 181.5 cm. As I´m 1.65 with an inseam of appr. 30 I had to lower the seat a bit too taking out some of the foam.
The only downside is that the bike is going to be shipped to me and I´ve not tried it yet! News to come soon!
I´m going to be in Chile & southern Argentina till the end of March. Hope to be able to meet some of you over here.
Safe & happy rides
