VTR1000.ORG

just a quick hello to you all. My 98 vtr is my first big bike after passing my test in december, and let me tell you, I love it!!

I have used it throughout the winter and have meticulusly cleaned and cared for her throughout that time. I am really enjoying getting to grips with the bike now the roads are dryer and warmer. six or seven trips into wales, and I feel right at home on her.

I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences and hopefully picking up some help and tips from the wealth of experience on the forum, just one question... why cant I get it to wheely easily??

First gear get upto about 3000rpm crack the thottle open and hold on. Oh and make sure you keep the back brake covered.

Welcome.

Hi Evo Welcome Aboard
What part of wales do you visit? I'm quite partial to a trip over myself.

ow do matey, welcome

Hi Evo,

Welcome to the nut house - plenty of good advice to be had whenever you need it.

Timbo, wasn't the last Wales run a non-event? Started off with big plans and lots of interest which seemed to peter out a tad?

Shame cos there's some cracking roads there.

Maybe we'll get one in this year - boring run down for me on the 62 but I'd be up for it prior engagments and funds permitting.
