im already hammering the search function,i like to do my homework before buying ewt.
also enjoying the several videos on youtube,liking the twin stubby race cans!!!

they also seem to sound better than my old rsv mille!
im quite liking em in silver,yellow or the nice orange colour.

Stand back and light blue touch paper...
Red ones are the most common.
Then comes your yellow, black.
Silver and blue are on a par.
Orange are far and few between and teal need a respray according to most. I quite liked mine though

im surprised at that timbo
the silvers quite classy looking but not so sporty.
are they as finnicky to maintain/look after as rsv millies?
please say the clutch doesnt need bleeding every 4 miles
and that theres no sprag clutch ect.lol

Having not owned a RSV I can't really make a 100% comparison.
With what I've heard/read about the RSV a VTR should be a lot less hassle. It depends what you pay and the condition of the bike.
When I looked at a Ape the thinks that put me off were what you've already stated.
That said-they're very nice bikes

and all bikes have niggles. Some worse than others.
Pleased I went for the SP tbh. It's brilliant.
