I’d put this bike in the top 3 of bikes I’ve owned tbh. Real power in a world of rubbish roads. Nothing I can say about this machine that other forum participants haven’t said so far ..... I’m just off out on it now ....ttfn

the GS is a great bike but the XR is a sports bike on stilts!

Thank you
I’m finding the quick shifter very addictive ..... especially changing down the box
As I have the mechanical ability of a love island participant I’ll probably be asking plenty of ridiculous questions .... standby with the redicule chaps
