I am not keen on the look of new bikes , and was considering a 600 or 1200 bandit - gosh had a few of those lol, when I stumbled across a vtr , 1 owner and only done 6k. so I popped along, omg original rear tyre , but the owner who had bought it from city in 97 had kept it in the garage and not used it often at all......i pondered the cost of new tyres, and the inevitable few things that will need doing .....and bought it a few weeks later.

This is my 3rd......i had a red one, then a blue one ...and now i have a black one.

I have to say for a low mileage bike, which whilst the fluids have all been changed I'm sure needs a bit of work....but it rides perfectly , cannot fault it so far.




lovely bike....

That looks like a nice clean original storm.

Well done on your purchase, nice looking bike. If it’s running it’s original cam chain tensioners and having stood for some considerable time, they will be ripe for letting go. If you’ve had a couple before I’m sure you’re aware of the areas which need addressing on these.

ah yes the infamous tensioners - I will be replacing those when it goes into the garage...

Nice find

That bikes looks great
What a find

Welcome aboard
