Not a VTR, but she's mine

Post by Virt »

So the VTRs replacement is inbound. As of today it is now mine, will be collecting it within the next 2 weeks after some nice extras have been fit to it (luggage, crash bars, yoshimura.. all the usual stuff). :D

Yes
Because I fell in love with my Dads crosstourer while in France, they're beautiful to ride.

Eh, not quite yet. Some complications may have arisen

0% finance on the V strom makes them easy to buy, they look a lot better than the earlier version too. A mate has just bought one as well, he traded in a Blackbird.

i first saw one up the Gross Glockner pass in Austria doing tests at high altitude. It seemed to go ok, 102 bhp i think. Cheap too under 10K

I think it's a beautiful bike :O she can do 260 miles on a 20 litre tank, and has an engine slightly bigger than the VTR.. what's not to like, other than the looks? :D

I will be sticking around the forum still, I know you sorry lot would miss me otherwise
