Racing VTR "photo album"

Post by Jscobey »

i always love seeing photos of the VTR in race trim and various related photos. lots of them ive seen on here but they are very scattered and difficult to find so i thought it would be cool to start a "photo album" of all the pictures that are floating around. if you have access to anymore PLEASE share them.I'd like this to eventually be pages and pages of awesome VTR pictures, or at least try an get every photo that still exists on this thread. we all know this bike wasnt Honda's flagship bike, so cool pictures like these are somewhat rare. i know you all enjoy these as much as i do and i cant find them all so post post post!! maybe we could get Roger D. to post some that we may have not previously seen :thumbup:

eventually ill go back and add as much info to each photo as i can and feel free to do the same by quoting or PM'ing me a certain picture and giving as much background/history and/or description of the photo as you can and i will insert it under each picture. i think the history of our beloved bike is so important to our community and it would be great to keep it alive and easy to find. The only downside is i cant stop drooling over the pictures :lol:

now sit back and enjoy :Beer Popcorn:

The yellow camel bike belongs to Martin Gilson (gilson on here) but I don't think he's been on here for a while.- http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/memberlis ... ile&u=2242
Nice idea fella. :thumbup:
