You insist they're shit until someone else says they're shit, and then you start defending them?

I insist their engines are shit (well bland and boring.)

I have not suggested their handling is an issue, which is what another user /was/ criticising.
And thus this was mentiond specifically in relation to power delivery in this case.

And, while we're at it, I do often reccomend them to people as a first time bike, since long before I had one or had considered one. I was defending them as a good bike for people to have as a 'first big bike'.

I was always told that 4 stroke were nasty to start when hot, luckily no one told my DR600 that - a couple of times I was just pushing down on the kicker to position it around TDC and it started with out me trying - while it took some serious kicking when cold!


I must admit to having mis-read the model of bike as XT500.

I can assure you, these have reduced grown men to tears.
