Happy birthday to my VTR

Post by Flatline »

I bought the bike in August 1998, so it's 20 years old..........................20 years!

I have changed/uprated a few things but the only break down I've had was due to the coils going tits up

Not bad

All credit to Mr. Honda for a fine reliable machine

Still worth 20%+ of its purchase price

I love riding a 20 years old

I do get tired after a hard ride though

Well?

Did you buy it a cake, light the candles then blip it to let the exhaust blow them out?

You're a bad father.......surely it's not too much to ask.

(PS: don't try this with your children, the exhaust on those is flammable...)
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
