Welcome to the Forum :D
On Sunday the 8th of May I was staying at the Feughside Inn near Banchory and spotted a VTR just driving away as I arrived. Was it you?
I was fishing at Crathes Castle for three days but kept on seeing riders congregating at the hotel.

Hello, and welcome to the forum. Alfords nae that big a place, and I only know of one VTR in that area (Silver one with belly pan, red painted calipers, red levers, red naked women (decals) on the fairing, Akrapovic cans and a darker silver numberboard).

There's also Andy (Floyd) knocking about who has an orange one. V*** DLK. Ok, he's in Pitsligo, but he has a habit of turning up in the weirdest of places. It's bog standard apart from a colour coded belly pan and Leo Vince cans.

Maybe I spoke to you at Alford this year? Were you on the ''ratified'' Firestorm, and spoke to you in the car park regarding your VERY cut down cans????

My one was on display (No.44), right at the end of the line - Loads of people came up to talk about it (99% ex VTR Firestorm owners).

At the Autojumble, there was a trader selling VTR firestorm parts. Maybe you were him. Or, with a name like krazy legs, you may be female. I spoke to 2 ex VTR owners at Alford Convention that were of the female persuasion. I dunno where they were from, but it was an aberdeenshire twang.

Either way, as said, a warm welome to the nut house.

:wave: :beer:

Welcome to the club.
I go fishing on the Dee during the first week of May every year and stay at the Feughside Hotel at Banchory,
There are always loads of bikers on the carpark so it must be on the "rideout" route.
Hope to see you there over the Bank Holiday!
