Andy, you do know you could have just bought the SMC model in the UK?:lol8:
I bet it was more fun this way!! :thumbsup:
Just a quick post to let you Guys know, the bike is now in my possession, it was delivered on Friday, and I put it together on Sunday.....bloody hell ! It actually arrived ! There were a lot of times when I thought, I’ve just handed $1400 over to an unknown manufacturer in China, with no come back, and I don’t know if I’ll ever see my bike, or my money again ! But fair play to Galaxy, they came through in the end...although it did take 3 months to manufacture !
I’ll write a detailed post with pictures in the next few days when I get a bit of time....(I’ve been very busy with family stuff), but first impressions of the XTR are very good, a couple of small problems with it, but nothing I can’t sort out. More to follow....
Cheers

Hi Franki,
Thanks for the kind offer, I really appreciate it. There are a couple of things I need to know:-
- Could you ask them to send me an English owners handbook.
- The bike came with an exhaust with an oxygen sensor fitted, they also sent me a more powerfull exhaust without an oxygen sensor. I'd like to fir the more powerfull pipe but am worried that it will upset the bikes ECU ??
- What is the running in peiod for the bike ?
Thanks again Franki :thumbsup:
Cheers
Andy

1. Galaxy will send you an English owner's manual by e=mail as soon as Lidia is back in office.
2. If the performance exhaust has an oxygen sensor port, please install the oxygen sensor back. If there is no oxygen sensor port, you need to install one locally and put the sensor back. It is not advisable to run the bike without the sensor installed.
3. The running in period is 2000km. Oil change at 300, 600, 1000 and 2000km. 1500km oil change there after. If you use full synthetic oil, you can stretch it to 2000km interval.
I hope I have advised you well.
Franki
