    Just picked one up with 17k on it and I love it. At 64 years old I’ve found my new love to accompany me in these Tennessee hills.

      Make sure you take the stock timing chain tensioner out and put in a manual bike won't make it past 30,000 miles if you don't promise you I learned the hard way wish somebody would have told me this

    What makes the VTR so great is it's power plant. It delivers torque in the low and mid RPM range like no inline 4 can, except for the Bandit, which has considerably more displacement...

    The steering damper is just bling, the bike does not need it at all, the bike is very stable. The best "bang for your buck" modification is a fork brace. The Racetech internals are made to be used with a 5W fork oil

    This bike does not compete with any 1000cc bike today. But make no mistake it is very quick for it’s age and you will have tons of fun with it, more specifically NOT A BEGINNER BIKE.

    If the Yoshi cans are carbon fibre,you may want to replace them,the Firestorm is renowned for vibration and resonance causing them to crack.

    • @BearsTrains
      @BearsTrains Год назад

      No, the bike doesn't vibrate unless the carb synch is way out, then it vibrates a little at 4500rpm

      @@darkknight1340 There must be something wrong as mine is smooth as silk. I have seen some CF cans fail but they were after 60-70,000 kms on Australian roads. I have CF Jardines on my bike and they are still ok after 80,000km. My BMW R1100S vibrates a lot more than the VTR. Of course, my VTR is black which is the fastest color which may have something to do with it 😁. They DO vibrate a lot under 3000 and I believe this is the cause of the ACCT failures (people ride them like a Harley and lug the engine but is just a theory). I never ride under 3k and I replaced the ACCTS with Kreigers at 83000, more due to peer pressure than anything else. I have met riders who say they have a vibration even though the carbs were synched but it turned out in every case that they (or their mechanic) set the the carbs to exactly the same reading (which you would expect to be correct) but the rear cylinder has to be higher by 20mm/Hg or something. Been a few years since I did it.
