I’ve been bombing around on my X1. Vance/Hines exhaust. Just so much fun! I always say, if someone tells you to go play in traffic, take an X1.
The good: I like the huge aluminum tail section and the dual breadbox air intakes.
The bad: the seat! Did I mention the seat? It’s very narrow and square at the gas tank. Everytime I tap the brake it feels like my junk is in a vice.
On any tuber you can expect the factory rear shock is cooked. I bought a NOS off fleabay because they’re getting rare. A lot of the parts and gaskets are completely compatible with a sporty so parts haven’t been an issue.
