Nice VTR Streetfighter on ebay

stormsmasher · Post by **stormsmasher** » Tue May 22, 2007 9:16 pm

I have to say it's a good effort IMHO, the whole point of streetfighters is to be different!
I'm not a real fan of bright colours but I bet pink is well cool if you are a girlie or a little well...you know (not wanting to sound homophobic).
I do like the rear end full stop, there must have been a lot of work going into the arm, rear plastics & exhaust so... respect!
Can't get my head around the single front disc and I'm no fan of twin chrome headlights but it's a cracking base to start a project for anyone wanting to build a VTR streetfighter providing it fetches less than Â£2500.
Building a good streetfighter is bloody expensive, trust me I know (been there done that) so factor in selling your own VTR and then buying this one and it makes a lot of sense since you will not need to spend a massive amount to get it just right.
I for one will be watching the auction to see what it sells out of interest. I might consider selling mine for the right price to fund my next project. Saying that I would like to keep the bike for the next 20 years if I find alternative funds since I will never have the time and patients to do such a streetfighter again in my lifetime!

This is Nudenuts bike, which is Mono's old bike. It had the full Mario Nava treatment and then smashed.

He'll probably kill me for posting these as it's filthy, we had just ridden through rain for about 8 hours.

And that's my bike on the left.

i agree, i personally think its rather lary, however the engineering and skill thats gone into it is really great! Change the colour and add a propper front fairing and i would be loving it!

I wonder who won it...

Tell ya what Alan, this guy does seem genuine and can't ride now due to losing the leg so worth a punt. I went the std FireStorm route back to bike ownership so no longer thinking about it!!!!

One Word...
.

UGLY!

Pretty sure I saw this 'Pink' one for sale on fleaby up North East last year when I was looking for bits for mine.
My opinion hasn't changed any!

Each to his own I suppose.
