The pics are coming out for me as red crosses.  Shame, as I would love to see the XT.  I had a 1986 one, and I loved it.  Brilliant dual-purpose bike.  As 'Bike' said in a road test at the time, "if you can't have fun on one of these, you must be dead."

I love it but due to a bad back last year I had it up for sale and it didn't sell thank god cause my backs better now.

It gives huge fun on the twisties here, an xjr 1300 and a Hornet couldn't keep up with it on the back roads from Douglas to Castletown until they hit the long straight at the end and blew it into the weeds.

Still got the Hornet as well, I see, or did that go to the wife after all?

Nice looking things, the XTs. No fussiness, purposeful and slightly bonkers: just what you need in a motorcycle!

Purposeful and slightly bonkers and with a saddle like that it's just what you need when re-entering earth orbit and slapping your bits on the tank!

Don't slide unless you mean too.

Be sure, ride safe and enjoy
