New to VTR and new to Motorcycling!!! Hello all

Post by islandstorm »

Hi all. As you can see from the thread tittle I am new to motorcycling having passed my test in Sept 15. Being an "older" rider I went to the VTR1000 and am the owner of a Yellow (the fastest so I'm told lol) VTR Firestorm (1998) running a private VTR plate!. I live in Hampshire, Hayling Island and am out most weekends.
Hope to maybe meet up with others as the weather improves through spring!

Happy biking and stay safe! :P :P :P :P :P

Welcome to the club mate. Has the bike had CCT's and reg/rec sorted? If not look through the stickies in the workshop section. We've had a few lately who have had CCT's failures. It's Hondas gift that keeps on giving!!

Yellow envy, I think. Only one way to cure that buy a yellow one :)

And a big YELLOW to you
