My VTR :) and some others
Well i got it in May/June last year, rode it around for a bit, then had engine problems. All fixed now. And absolutely loving these past few dry days, but wheelies ruin the rear tyre .
Few pics.
When i got it:
After a few mods, db screen, sp1 calipers, braided lines, smaller plate and indis changed:
Heres some pics of my 1992 Cagiva Mito mk2 ' Racing '
This is a VERY rare bike, came from the factory with marchesinis, SP forks, SP shock ( ive swapped it out for a rgv250 fully adjustable shock ) and a fully adjustable steering damper frame mounted ( behind fairing ) Absolutely love this bike to bits!!! will never sell it.
From :
To:
Then theres the KTM which i came off in september breaking my shoulder, only just got back to work 3 weeks ago, had operations and now have metal in me ( real man lol ):
Not too bad considering im only 24. Alot more bikes to come yet. I currently own all 3 of these bikes
Sorry for the long post hehe.

Re: My VTR :) and some others
Just got the 6 spoke blade rear on, and just painted up the small standar dbellypan thingy up in original colour yellow to go with the rest of the bike.
Im getting a 6 spoke front this weekend and they are black rims and gonna fit yellow rim tape. ill throw some pics on here on sunday most likely if i get it all done, if not will be middle of week.
Are you from around teeside firestorm996?
