I liked the XRX I rode recently. I think the XRT will be better on tarmac though,with the smaller front wheel?

I thought they both had the same 'road' wheels?

Did you ride the XCX TP?

The pillion perch is comfy enough, I tried out Mat-Tigers  :icon_razz:

I know I'm such an old tart  :icon_redface:
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

50 mile test ride today guys, all back to normal. What I have noticed is now that I have an airbox without cracks all over it, the bike doesn't want to start on full choke. Half choke and she fires up straight away and within 30 secs I can drop the choke right off. Chain needs a bit of tightening, but other than that, no issues. :wings
