Had my vtr 4 years, live on merseyside, though technically on the banks of the ribble.
Ride in all weathers, came off in all that white stuff the other day, second time in 30 years.

Just had alook on Eblag, to see what they're fetching these days, and surprise, none there.
I know how much they are new, though....
This one's and earlier series grey one, not the bronze colour of the later engines.
But there's a small scar on the lower edge....
Piccie to follow in a few mins, when I get back from my stores.

Even lightly scraped, it's worth Â£50.
If your bike is in otherwise excellent condition, and concourse, you could leave it on there fro the winter, and then get a perfect one if and when one comes up, then sell this one on for what you paid.

Alternatively, there are some real nice carbon or kevlar covers that cover up teh scrape very nicely, from Carbonadi in Germany.

Off up the garden again I go...

keep it up tony at least your burning off some calories going up and down the garden...........

i've got a pair of carbonadi carbon covers on mine and they look the nuts about Â£40 each and they'll protect your engine if you were to have another spill, best not ride after doing the white stuff mate...........

Not really scraped into the metal, just the surface paint.Will be good to go with a polish of that three-pronged symbol.
Or a retouch with black hammerite.

Or just live with it..

Does 50 put it on my doorstep?

tony.mon · Post by **tony.mon** » Mon Dec 19, 2011 11:17 pm

No, but another eight does.
I'll PM you my Paypal address.

You won't be able to PM me back until you have at least ten posts, so better find something you want to say....

**EDIT**
