I’m old and probably have had over 40 bikes over the years, just put a deposit on a 2023 650 xt, it’s being delivered on 3rd October. Been going through the forum for must have accessories.

Hello John. Buying in winter, I would say the first thing you do when it's delivered is clean it (if it isn't minters) then cover it in ACF50 or something similar, ceramic maybe. Got to get it protected.

This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can. Nothing travels faster than the speed of time.

11 month delivery. That's a long time to wait.
