X10 350 i.e. Metallic Grey
« on: 23 March 2024, 11:17:06 am »
After what 5ish years, my X10 is up for sale, I'm just not using it and it's a waste, full pictures in the links below. 

The last 4 years it's hardly been used, it was bought as a commuter back in mid 2017.  After 4 months my work location changed and it really wasn't needed, never used through the winter as intended. I just couldn't bring myself to sell just in case and I loved the odd dry summer rides I did on it.  I've done in that time 3670miles, the majority of that in the first year, the average in the last few years is between 500 - 6miles, last year is the 6 to it's MOT and back! It's not been used this year as yet.  The bike was stripped in 2017, all the well known issues were dealt with see my post here with full pictures https://x9ownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=26121.msg283863#msg283863 serviced, Denali horn and HID conversion fitted.  The latter is easily disconnected for MOTs if you're worried or your tester doesn't like them, they will be removed if a new owner doesn't want them.  Rear drive oil level bolt has been replaced see here with pictures https://x9ownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=26888.0

The bike is due a new belt/guides/weights at it's next service (waiting for the service light) all are ready and waiting and will be thrown in.  The bike is stored in a garage, hooked up the a Opimate, it's totally reliable bike, it never fails to start first prod even after many months of non use in the garage.   

The bike was registered 2 July 2012, has covered to date 11136 miles, which is below average for the year, MOT 06 Sept 24, currently SORN, this is a push the button and ride, nothing other than routine serving will need doing.  ULEZ compliant, I've had max 95 mpg with averages of 67mpg motorway/city and 88 mpg long rides on mixture of A and B roads, it's a perfect long haul and commuter in one.  Not many bikes you can don all your riding kit, ride to the coast, remove the riding kit including boots, store it under the seat, walk around in shorts/tee shirt all day, return to the bike get donned up and ride home.  From my research at the time of buying, it's the best maxi scoot available, packed with features, ABS, Traction control, factory fitted immobiliser, illuminated switch gear, too full face helmets will fit under the seat.  The seat is an armchair I've done 5 hours in one go on it.  I was always very anti Maxi scooter until a good friend got one for commuting, suggested I tried it, kicking and screaming I did, couldn't believe how good it was and bought one.  It will see off just about anything up to 40mph off the lights and there's nothing road wise it can't do, extremely stable in cross winds handles very well, not much will get away from you on the twisty's.

I'm now starting to do more adventure/off road stuff, the bike isn't getting or will be used in the foreseeable and it's taking up space.         

The bike is in very good condition, both keys, all paperwork and fully serviced, located in the Melton Mowbray area, looking for £2k ovno.
