Also demonstrates up to a 5% reduction in engine compartment temp on fully faired bikes, although thats not such an issue with side mounted rads on the vtr front pot and pipe, but may help reduce rear pot temp by a fraction. A mate did it on his rsv-r's rear downpipe as it runs so close to the rear ...

13 year old ducati thats never turned a wheel? All new belts and a full rebuild with new seals will be required then. Those spangly Ohlins suspenders will need the same.

Best its left on a plinth after all.

That looks very nice in white. The black frame tops it off nicely too.

I run #41 on an H1 ZXR750 painted in Kork Ballington colours.

Interestingly enough the Guzzi was a hoot to ride, the fuel injection was really sharp and it really loved being revved. Handled nicely too but the torque reaction of the crank and shaft drive were offputting until you got used to it. Main problem was the weight though. I did test a storm and a ...

Cheers guys. Sent a pm about the leathers, as I can read the sale forum but not post in it.

The ZXR is plenty fast enough for me really, I'm still a rookie and the bike is in no way the limiting factor.

Cheers, but getting the piss ripped isnt anywhere near as bad as watching the VTR's hook up and bugger off into the distance on the track.

My old 89 ZXR cant hold a candle to the grunt the 'Storms have firing away up the straights.

Evening all, thought I'd drop an intro in here as a courtesy. Not a VTR owner myself but I do race against several of them in the Bemsee Thunderbikes series. I was directed here because of a set of leathers for sale in your pinboard section but thought the polite thing to do would be to say Hi in ...
