How long have you owned your VTR?
How long have you owned your VTR?
As one of the old timers that drank the VTR Kool-aid long ago just wondering how long folks keep their bikes.
As for me I'm at 23 years now and I guess I am also getting a bit rare as I bought mine new in 9\97
So any other, from new, owners still around?
Well back to the shed as I try to find where some of my spare bits ended up after my move

Loud pipes don't save lives, knowing how to ride your bike will save your life.

Wow!
Two owners boasting 20-plus years really speaks for these bikes.
I've had 3 over the past 2 years but will never get to 20 years.

Re: How long have you owned your VTR?
or how lazy the owners might be! I didn't sell it when I got bored with roadbikes, so it was still there when I got bored with the off roaders.
so you shouldn't be surprised to know that I still have the gasgas enduro bike even though I haven't ridden enduro or greenlane for 6yrs. …. I know it is worth more to be that I will get if I sell them so I just wait for the tide to change again.
unless you know anybody that wants a 2002 GasGas 200 enduro bike that is fully road legal and had the engine overhauled before I mothballed it
but if you want to catch up, you can do what MacV2 does, and own multiple Firestorms at the same time, so he should have a cumulative 20yrs as well

Re: How long have you owned your VTR?
also spotted that it took me 9 years of freeloading information off the internet groups before I joined this forum...…….. is that a lurking record?

First Storm for me was 2011 which got written off by a BMW Driver (or not as he didn’t see me) then started to build the fighter which I still own. I have had 6 others pass through during this time and have 5 other bikes in the cave at present

Insufferable halfwit.

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
