I thought this would be a good spot for people to post any of those little mods they did on their XR from day to day.

Maybe you added some bags (bagger!) or some LED indicators.

Maybe you washed the bike.

MayB you put some new tires on there.

Who know?

Just post up!

Oh, and we like pictures.

Before coming to work today, I rotate my hand controls about an inch forward, and readjusted the flipped mirrors.

Last saturday, I've moved the whole handlebar about a 1-1/2 inch forward too.

Simple mods, but they really change how the bike fells and reacts for me.

Yep.....I believe they are the same. Did you use resistors with yours...and if so....where did you put them for the front?......I know obviously you have different bars.

About two weeks ago I changed my rear tire with a PR3. Loving it, because the bike turns much faster now...


Ordered a front PR2 that will be arriving at the end of this week.


Last night, I had I removed my Suricato (Brasilian Fueler, same kind of Patriot Top Fueler) to test my bike. It turned off 3 times in a sequence while I was riding it... very scary... the first time I was at about 4.5K rpm and "around" 98 miles/hr. The bike started slowing down and lost its power... At first I believed it was bad gasoline, but after 3 times, I decided to take the Suricato off. Just to test it... I believe it´s a bad connection thing, so I´ll run the whole week without it. Saturday I plan to check the instalation...


That was it.


Regards, Focchi.

I'm gonna leave work early, go home, start it up and drive it to the tire shop for a new PR2 for the rear. My current is quite toast and might make the EPIC III journey, but I like to be sure.

Frank, yeap. Those are the V&H 1-inch bars. They fit right up there with no problems. The bar end weights, on the other hand, got smashed up pretty good when I took that spill in the parking lot a few months ago, so they are off and replaced with little cheap plastic caps.

@lau: DROOL! Air box is bitchin'!

@Halfmt1: DROOL! That black Anvil looks good!

Wow! Great looking bike, I just got a black one like your XR1200x and wondered how to make the seat more comfortable. Seems like it want to push me forward. Yours looks like might hold much better. My friend ran out of gas on Saturday's ride so once in a great while it seems like a good thing to have that rear seat available.
