So I have had this 660X for a while now and really enjoy riding it as a commuter at the moment. I also have a GSA and HP2 that I enjoy even more. I think the 660 is great but absolutely useless on the dirt which is my terrain of choice, so the question is do I put a 21" front wheel on and make it into a R or is it worth more as an X and sell it as is?

It is a 2006 that is mechanically perfect with Leo Vince pipes and Power Commander but cosmetically not such good shape. The spokes are rusted, engine casing paint is coming off so needs a little tlc. It stands me in at R 35 k and has just over 40k on the clock. I use it daily to commute to work but think if it was more capable I would use it more on the weekends and conserve the BM's.

This little bike really goes well and I'm sure will give my 1150 a go up to about 150km/h.

What is your opinion ?
