New VTR owner
Hello all,
My names Tom, I'm based around Norwich in Norfolk.
I've recently bought a red 1997 VTR.
I'm really impressed with it and I can see why people don't part with them easily!
Its neigh on standard apart from manual CCT's, handle bar risers and renthals which I like.
What I've done so far is;
1: Fuel petcock had a split
2: Replace the front screen
3: various bolts were missing, id say its had another engine at some point in its life
What I need to do;
1: Sort this creeping clutch!!
Ill save that for the technical section though
