Sweet Bike,,
For just a Quick Sunday ride!
Being into circa '69 and '70 2-strokes I was told about the XT by a family member not too long ago. The more I read about and researched it the more I was interested. So I went and sat on one at a local dealer, (Got mine private party) and was amazed by the low seat height. I'm not small, but I loved how it fit and how light it was. For shorter people it would also fit great. And it's like 34 pounds lighter than the equivalent Honda dual sport, yet with that great seat height.
What is also amazing is even with that low seat height, they designed the engine clearance at 11.2". And they did it by eliminating the radiator/coolant system. It's simple, old school style, air cooled. And that is how the engineers kept the machine really narrow.
Btw, it would also make a good bug out machine.☺
