XT600E Upgrades - What else to do?
I have carried out a few upgrades to my standard mint XT600E (1999) -
1. Brake Lines (Front & Back) HEL stainless steel £60
2. Pipercross Foam Air Filter £50
3. Odyssey Gel Battery £100
4. GEL (visco-elastic foam) seat insert £45
5. DID Gold X Ring heavy duty chain (and new sprockets) £100
6. Renthal Bars £40
Perhaps a S/S exhaust? What's the best option here? I really don't want to spend more than about £150.
What about an Engine bash plate, the existing one isn't up to much is it? I only use it on tarmac so I guess it will only be for show...
I only use the bike in the summer when the weather is warm and dry. It's really only a play thing for the road (Yeah I know I'm a pussy). The thing is I really LOVE the thing, I just love BIG jap singles and the torque they produce.
Who knows I may one day take it on a trip somewhere else warm and hot. I rather like the idea of Ukraine and Russia.
Waddaya Fink Boys?
