New to Honda's vtrs and big v-twin swapped a ALP 650 for this.
It's a gen 1 25,000 miles on tank.
Standard exhaust but have been modified the baffles are gone so it very throaty. Love the low down grunt

Read this...

The first bit about using the forum in general.
More importantly the second bit is all about what to look for mech wise... CCt's, Reg/Rec & often overlooked shock linckage... Sort tose then start the mods...
Best one is apply R-147...

I getting on to the cct and the RR
It was red I think see some of it in places. I have been on a ALP 650 and a tdm 850 for few years leaning over q tank again an odd feeling but the rush of that motor is something else.

Hi welcome Teal is nice but vtr's in red are stunning in my opinion.
Cant beat a big V.
