Just gone back to a VTR

Hi all,
Have just bought myself a 2000 FY Firestorm (registered 2002) with a lot of cosmetic damage, I'm going to refurbish it as my first ever bike project as I loved my old 1997 Firestorm and when you get older and have some spare cash - you follow your dreams right?
One big issue I'm having problems with sourcing Firestorm stickers and a new tank cover... would be great if I could get a VTR fuel cap cover too? Intention is to start work while I'm on leave in October or failing that December while I've got a number of days off.

Welcome to the forum
I seem to think there might be a copy of the decals your after on the forum somewhere
Good luck with the project and I look forward to seeing what you do with it
