near perfect bike

as a product of on any sunday my life has had a connection with motorcycles for over 40 years, years of motocross, dragracing and roadracing still have not diminished my love for the sport....the xr 1200 has kept this fire alive. although i own many motorcycles h2's to gsxrs the xr has earned a spot... near the top. it makes riding fun without smoking the tires or triple digit radar runs. its handy, strong and well thought out with one small exception...the turn signals. the right turn switch is hard to use while using the front brake or controling the throttle. i personally prefer the switch on the left side but i think for those who insist it could be on the right side it could be redesigned. other than that the motorcycle goes well, stops well, handles smooth and precise and looks great. what else is there.

Comparing old and new

As I said so I'm comparing the old and the new. The earlier xr version 1000 is a limited stock I heard, there were only 1300 in production worldwide.The ones who own this bike created different styles and variaties of it.The power of the engine stayed almost the same,but some things such as primary ...drive and final drive chnged from chain into belt.A couple of little changes do not make the difference.
As a fanatic of motorcycles I will search for this bike and maybe own it one day.

Now I'm gonna show you some stuff.
