A month ago I just brought home a new to me 2008 Uly XT. Black. Love this bike. As soon as the XT came out I fell in love.

Big step up from my first bike 82 Seca 750.

Very pretty, ST301! I like the Black ones! Do you have heat shields on your pipes or is that photo reflection? Enjoy.

Previous owner put the header wrap tape on it. Mulling switching it for the comfort kit.

Weather has been cold here in Missouri so the extra heat is actually appreciated.

I had two of those Seca's. That was the first production bike to come with an onboard computer. I beat the snot out of that bike and it just wouldn't throw in the towel.

Yeah the Seca as a great first bike. Got it on the cheap, learned a lot wrenching on it. It just got the point I worked on it more than I rode it. Also parts were a pain to find.

Yep that exact bike. I painted it all black. Jetted the carbs, pod filters, 4 into 1 exhaust. It did manage to haul me all the way from SW MO to Birmingham to Barber Motorsports park.
