[xaviermoar TT Newbie]

I make it three at this stage! I just got an old XR600 and I love it. I live in Sydney and I'm keen to get out and do a few tracks. Sing out if you know of any good places to ride.

[wiggywildwildwest TT Member]

how old is your XR6 ? the 86-90 ones were the best engine wise. the later ones had better brakes and suspension.

[xaviermoar TT Newbie]

yeah im an aussie

[xaviermoar TT Newbie]

Wiggy, I'm also commuting around town (have been for the last 3 weeks anyway) and I'm getting a bit sick of refuelling every 125 kms! It would go a bit further on the reserve, as the manual claims it has 2 litres worth of reserve in it. I'm keen to get my hands on an old 20 litre tank to stretch it out a bit, as well as handle a ride to Alice Springs at the end of the year. How much should a used aftermarket fuel tank be worth? Cheers.

[wiggywildwildwest TT Member]

i bought mine 2nd hand from the local yamaha dealer for $100. try the usual avenues. ebay/wreckers/bikeshops/etc. they can still be had new from acerbis. winter is the best time to be near alice.
