    Looking like it'll be cloudy and possible very light (1mm over 6hrs) rain.

    Perfect really.

    Yes & no... It will cruse 90+kph on the seal.. on the gravel
    yer don't get into 5/6th gear often unless there a good length straight..
    But the motors quite happy to spin a 3/4 throtle in the lower gears..
    On hills , long up hill pulls more power would be nice...

    I have just picked up a swing arm,linkage,shock to start
    building one for the XT660 sometime...
    I bought it for the shock... don't know iif i will use the arm or
    build a single sided one...
    So will fined out if more powers better..


    Let the fun begin
