VTR1000.ORG

G`day everyone,allow me to introduce myself,I`m Phil and have just bought my 1st Vtr yesterday(29/01/2011).
I believe it once belonged to another member on here,he goes by the name of warbie???? It`s a 98 fw model with a iridium screen,laser carbon cans,k&n filter and dynojet kit fitted.
The guy also changed the footrest/exhaust hangar brackets and made some really nice round tubed stainless ones.

Does this ring any bell`s to anyone on here?

hya chap - yes warby is a top chap on here and the bikes history is all there if you look around.
a well looked after machine it is too, i'm sure it will serve you well, all the fiddly bits have already been done so you should have a nice reliable sorted ride there

whereabouts in lancs are you?
im in warrington just down the road (long road like!) probs tie up for a few rides when it gets a bit warmer, not much fun over a hr or 2 atm

Hi Benny,cheers for the warm welcome and i`m glad my jedi skills didn`t go haywire!!lol i thought it was a good bike when i saw the advert I`m near junction 27 on the M6,just outside Leyland if you know it?

Does warby still come on here then? When i bought the bike it`s been data tagged and has a immobiliser but i have no paperwork for them to see if it`ll lower my insurance

yeh he pmd me yesterday so is still a regular spammer!

not that far away... some good roads up your way.
there will be a few meets later in the year but if you are looking for regular outings have a look HERE always something going on, plenty of meets, rides out & trackdays etc - more of a local community site than model specific

have a good browse around here m8, you will find loads of info on the bike, links to a free manual in the workshop bit etc

re insurance - i'm with ebike cos im trying to rebuild my ncb after losing it all a few years ago for a theft claim... but have a go on tesco bike insurance comparison thingy for the best quotes...
ive got 3 bikes on my policy and it costs me 82 a year
the storm on its own was 72

Cheers,i`ll have a look around. I`ll be up for rides out for sure

welcome to the site phil, you got a good bike there matey

Welcome to the forum Phil, I agree with marravtr it's a well cared for bike,I live in Eccleston so not to far from you ,so if there's anything technical you want to know about the storm,best ask on this site cos i know "F...all"
keep it shiny....ride safe .ChrisC

Cheers Guy`s,i`ll defo be prodding for info at some point,and any tips

Phil, I must be cracking up

What I meant to say was, you could PM him if you wish. He's known as warby221 on here.
