Anyone able to recommend a good mechanic in Sydney? My 97 tenere needing a little tlc (cylinder heads etc).

I’m hearing a lot of we don’t do bikes more than 10 years old 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello everyone,

I might be buying a xt660, but i have some questions first.
I looked up what the maintance would be and i saw on some forums that it was 6000km, But in the manual (linked below), It says every 1km. Am i looking at the wrong manual? or am i overlooking something.

​

Second question

If i would do maintance on it (Not very experienced). How difficult is it be to check values.
Since it is discontinued, if something breaks will parts still be easy to find or will that be harder?

Hey guys just wanted to see how other XT riders solved the problem of not having a helmet lock. It's not a big issue but was seeing if there were any good solutions out there. Cheers Mateys

I should mention my xt660x is a 2008 model.

Thought I'd kick this sub off by posting some pics of my weekend ride.

Saturday I hit the roads, doing about 400km, half of which were highways (120km/h+). Sunday I took her offroad, with road tires. Completely stock, 2004 model.
