    Riders in MT

    Hi all
    I am just wondering if there are any other XS riders living in Montana? Most of you seem to be everywhere but. I have seen a few 11's around but not all that many...
    Healthy is merely the slowest rate at which you can die

    Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better. I’ve always believed this, in spite of the trouble it’s caused me. Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba….Hunter S. Thompson

      Yeah, an' the bison don't ride bikes! Oh well, I guess that makes me one of a kind up here!

            It seems that everywhere is a good long day from here. I am in southwest, MT. There is some really good riding here, and lots of bike owners. I have seen a few XS11's around Bozeman, but they all seem to have been relegated to owners who don't really care. All those I have seen are in poor condition. But it makes mine stand out

              I'm from Bozone tho' I recently moved to Three Forks. It is kinda strange that most of the XS owners I've run across here in the last few years are indifferent to their bikes. I point them toward XS11.com but apparently they never check it out. The old mailing list and now the website are the main reasons I'm still an XSive.

                Hey Rob! Thanks for answering the call. We should meet up and ride together sometime. I have had the same experience with anyone I have seen on an old XS (1100 or 650) around here. How is your bike set up?
