Tangoed! Nice colour , but shame the decals have been applied haphazardly.

Weighted bar ends look odd or are missing? Like the indicator mirrors as holes for indicators in the fairing seem to have been filled in.

welcome

you picked the right bike by about a million miles

[tbone903]

im not a fan of those bar ends anyway.....theres a few things that need changing, i may also take a look at the decals when i get home too, but on the plus side it runs like a dream

To take them off depends if they've been lacquered over.

Here are some vector decal files that you can made up at a vinyl printers if you tell them the size and colour http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 3&p=224170

ive heard of a lot of problems regarding CCTs but not sure what you are refering to with the upgraded R/R mods

Replacement Regulator/Rectifier Mod

Recent new member has had his R/R fry itself in the 1st week of ownership leaving him stranded needing recovery > http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 15#p277990

well its done about 25000 miles and without looking through all the servicing and maintenance receipts im not sure what has been done but i'll probably look at replacing all the filters, the cct, R/R, spark plugs, and the chain just to keep her sweet.
