Any tips for getting my XTZ off the line?
I can’t say I’ve owned endless bikes (5 total/2 now) and this is my first parallel twin. But I either have to rev my bike to 3500 to get off the line OR rev to 2.5-3k and feather the clutch out OR risk stalling… and all the while my revs want to plummet.
I’m getting the hang of it more, but seems weird. And then the other day I found myself accidentally screaming my nline four to roll away from a stop.
is that normal for the super tenere? Is it a torquey twin call sign? Do y’all all have to do this?
wondering if raising the idle may make the gap between idle and required roll off revs lesser and therefore seem more ‘normal’.
Any insight as well as succinct product recommendations are appreciated. I’ve got a buddy who’s been chirping me about this xyz ecu mod to smooth throttle etc… but I’ve mostly been happy across the board. Just really hate having to consciously retrain myself on how to roll off the line. Also might investigate reducing decel chop.
new to the forums, new to my bike, and will probably be investigating various accessories over the next year. I’m finding: I hate the lights, wouldn’t mind a taller windscreen, and want a helmet lock. Other than that I’m pretty happy. Also need to investigate this first service for the shaft drive. Bought mine 7 yo with only 845m and just crossed 1k.
thanks all
