New to me 06/07 SM610 with 4700km Stock apart from running 16-45 gearing, which im not too keen on. Might go down to a 14-45 so I can play with the 450's on acceleration.
Hey all, I just picked up a lightly used 2009 TE610 with < 1400 miles and an brand-new SM wheelset For some reason it came with the wrong front caliper adapter and 240mm rear rotor, so it still has the OEM rotors on it. I'm sorting that out with Warp 9 who have been really helpful. First on my list is to go through and do a full fluid change, check the clutch bolt and fiddle with pegs, handguards (flag style), Nomadic rack, maybe heated grips, etc. Also spare clutch cable and springs, and a bunch of filters and oil since that stuff is expensive locally. Some more photos of the bike here: http://s.lofifoto.com/p/story.html?sid=34e0df85e6be4069a2bceae41f785164

Gday all, here is a couple of pics of my 07 te610 first one with sm clothes on. Had it for about 6 months - awesome fun bike on the road and even better in the dirt! Slowly getting all the bits and pieces done. Relocating and fitting new footpegs (pivot pegs) is next - so little room to shift with mx boots! And in TE trim, a little dirtier... A bit more grunty than my previous dirt bike, XR250!
my 610 is now semi-retired from dirt use for all but long rides. being too hot too ride in the bush here at the moment, i have done a cheapo motard conversion.
Looks cool Mandolin- I'd like to try spikes out one winter. Now I gotta say (me, who has no experience with spikes) that they look long- seems as though the flex would take the tire apart quick.
