    Hello all,
    Just put a deposit on a new 900 gt pro.hoping for a fault free ride, unlike my T120 (1966) that kept seizing. Then I found the sludge trap!
    Anyway, coming from a transalp xl750 that doesnt seem to know what it wants to be.

    Thanks! I may have the bike by Saturday. Cant wait to start running in. Was thinking of lower crash bars and a sump guard (I plan on doing some light off roading) but heard bad reports on the crash bars. Any thoughts?

    Hi and welcome…. I have 900 gt pro with top and bottom crash bars, I would be interested to hear what you have heard about them?
