Hello folks,

Not long passed my test and bought this off a mate of a mate. Anyone recognise it? Someone has spent a fair bit of money on it but quite a few things were never finished right...well not to my standards anyway. I'm slowly working my way through them.

A couple things have changed since these pics, non op rear indicators are gone as are the stickers on the hugger.

Welcome to the fold, nice looking bike, but I don't recognise if from my time on here

hello and welcome .
looks like a very nice bike you have there .
i do like the white wheels and the joshi cans not to sure on the head light tho as the are very hard to find and dont emit a lot of light . a bulb upgrade should help tho .
have you got standard cam chain tensioner fitted ?
if so you might want to modify them (stopper mod) or manuals as the standard items tend to let go without warning resulting in engine damage .
have a good read through the workshop knowledge base sticky section as their is lots of useful hits and tips in there

welcome to the forum buddy, i really like the twin headlight look, thats a nice looking bike, lots of extras aswell, if ever you decide to go back to a standard headlight let me know fella, also let us know where you live, that way if ever you need help or advice there might be a fellow member just around the corner so to speak....

Welcome to the forum mate, nice looking bike. Have a good read through and don't be afraid to ask any questions you may have, someone will always chirp up with an answer for you!

Welcome to the mad house. Your gonna have fun cleaning all that white. Nice looking bike.

Welcome aboard buddy

Where are you?

Cheers folks,

I'm from Aberdeen but the bike isn't judging by the plate and what the previous owner knew about it. My mate is a VTR owner of many years so we can probably figure most of it out.....doubt there are many more on here from round our way but you never know.

The white wheels are a pain in the butt to clean but I can live with it. Twin headlights are sadly LHD versions so are even worse than normal....hope it scrapes through MOT next week

Been reading up on the CCT and I reckon the stopper mod is the chappy for me. Wouldn't be surprised if something has been done to this already but I'll check it soon for peace of mind as the bike is up to 37k now.

Welcome - v nice looking. I do like the white wheels, but sadly not the headlight. There is a sketchy plan for a Operation Highland Storm, or at least a border skirmish, next year, check out the Rides section

Agree very nice looking bike but the dual headlight conversion is a very dated look now imo,

you could get another standard headlight and one of those plastic headlight protector covers painted in solid white for day time race bike look when stuck on

I quite like the TH look but might put a standard headlight back on for winter simply because I like to see where I'm going. It will defo be getting one if it fails the MOT.

Welcome aboard Nickso a cracking looking bike you have there

Even though the wheels are difficult to keep clean, they really do look the part IMHO
