    Advantages Advantages Sturdy, Much Cheapness, Throwaboutable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lack of power

    The XT600E is a strange beast. A four stroke single cylinder on/off road bike which is greatly favoured in the likes of France and Germany but rarely seen over here (UK). I bought a 1992 machine last year from a friend for the princely sum of £1400. I was suffering withdrawal symptoms having sold my year old ZX-6R a few months before. I sold the ZX-6R because every journey on that beautiful bike was "Engage warp speed Scotty" stuff. Totally mental, but for those of us with an enthusiastic right hand, a potential jail case. So I thought something tamer but "different" (different in that every ... more

    Advantages Advantages Very nimble in traffic, comfortable seating position

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Slow, clunky gearchange

    I purchased my XT600 new in 2002, and I'm afraid that it only comes out of the garage in dry weather. If you are looking for a fast thrill machine then don't buy one of these, if, however you want a very dependable bike for commuting to the office then this is the bike for you. Very easy to handle in the long traffic queues, there is no arm ache due to the upright riding position. Not the fastest bike but there are 600cc's if you need them. Good points include the fuel consumption and reliability, can however be regarded by the sports bikers as an old mans bike. A low-maintenace machine, but ... more
