Hello,

I have been a VTR nerd for about 3 1//2 years and have owned 7 VTrs in that time. They all came to me with issues.
1 - assassinated HISS in an attempted theft
1 - broken crankcase due to thrown drive chain
1 - running but rough due to valve timing being out by a tooth
3 - failed CCTs
1 - emerged from the pile of parts i had collected - Frankenstorm

I rode the all and then sold them on, except for Frankenstorm.

Hello all !!

Welcome to the forum. You must really like these bikes.

Then, why does he keep selling them?

I guess he prefers the broken ones.

I do love the bikes and ignoring my time spent fixing them, I have had pretty much a free bike to ride for the past few years. So i am sure i will have another broken one soon.... already got a rebuilt head, head gasket and CCT waiting.
