R/R modification
I have just carried out the R/R modification but have a couple of questions for anybody in the know. 1. I didn't cut off the original connector but simply made up 5no 3" lengths of cable, with a male and female connector at each end, which I've used to plug into the end of the original loom con...

Electrical gremlins??
Riding along today and the rev counter stopped working, then the trip meter then the speedo. About maybe 2 mins later the bike cut out-completely dead (bit dangerous as I was in fast lane of M25 at the time!)

Have not long had my VTR which has the most confidence inspiring front end i've had. on a bike.

By that i mean that when I hit the start button......absolutley nothing. No clicks, nothing. Checked the connectors on the starter relay which were a littl...

Front Indicators
I have spent the best part of the last 2 weeks (i'm embarrassed to admit) trying to fit some 'bikeit' fairing indicators to the front of my VTR and have had an absolute nightmare, blowing numerous fuses not to mention my Meta alarm/immobiliser. The place where I got them from suggested that I replac...
