hi!
I got this VTR-1000 2005 in a shop in Québec, Canada. It was forgotten in a crate unassemble. so Ya its brand new. So far, flashers where changed for flush mounts, and the twin muflers changed for a under seat Yoshimura RS-5.
I hope you enjoy it. I shure do.

Thanks all for the good comments!
And Yes this muffler is a littre hot on the %//$% but There is a carbon fiber and aluminum heatshield under the seat.
As for the colour well lets say that it attract less attention then My RED CBR and the Yellow Firestorm.
Any of you guys changed the breaklines? I find the break are mooshi compared to my old CBR-F4.

Yes the brakes are not as good as your old 600. In fact a good modification is to take the calipers and master cyl off a cbr600 f4i and fit to storm..... Result is great brakes

You will need to remove a bit on material off the caliper and the fork leg, but the hole spacing is correct. have a look at my thread when I changed mine. In workshop somewhere
