well here it is, found the digi camera, so got some piccies of her!

Honda VTR SP1 in Harris Honda Britain 2000 BSB colours
10000 miles on it, full spare harris fairing in red
spare titanium harris cans
carbon front fender
carbon tail
full service history
spare sp1 swing arm
spare sp2 swing arm and all parts to fit
undertray, led lights e.t.c
allready got a mate in america getting me a power commander, bit cheaper over there £170
been dropped on the left side though and the paintwork needs some lovin, undecided as to if i should have the damage redone in this colour scheme or take the opertunity to change it to an RCV replica either konica minolta, telefonica, or repsol..... i do kinda like this paintjob though Confused

needs some rearsets too i think, the high level cans melt the back of the soles of my boots at the moment as the heal guards are too high!

Looks nice, Powercommander is essential! It'll make things so much better below 4k rpm.

cheers peeps! yes it is rather loud with those harris pipes! powercomander should be a good upgrade then, other one i was thinking about is a slipper clutch, as ive got used to using it to trail the back wheel through corners on the zxr.... stabalises the bike a treat Smile

not gona try that on the v twin without a slipper though Shocked

The engine breaking on V twins is phenonomal! But time it wrong and the skips about like two 10 year old girls in the playground! So a slipper clutch would definitley be a good idea Smile

i havent had it lock the rear, but i have had it twitch / buck earlyer just feels less settled with the riding style i develpoed using a slipper clutch, so il either have to fork out £300 for one, or change how i ride i guess

Or learn to blip the throttle on downchanges. Bingo-bango.

having just checked the bank balance i cant really justify £300 on a slipper clutch for at least a couple of months anyway as a power commanders higher up the list..... will probably be used to it by the time i can afford one Thumbs Up

and i do blip the throttle, still twitches..... putting the suspension back to standard will proabably help as at the moment the forks have been dropped quite a bit, and you need ALOT of pressure on the inside bar to hold the line, not helping with my non twitchy cornering! Shocked

Nice, but not really feeling the paint, makes it look rather bland imo, rim tape might brighten it up a bit, but sounds like a bargain with all the spares you got for it, not really sure what paintwork would suit the sp though, castrol rep has been done to death, perhaps moriwaki rep https://www.dammaps.com/RC51/Images/Moriwaki-RC51.jpg or all black stealth?

well its current paint job is preety distinctive, to my knowledge theres only one other TP rep , and that was made by Harris to showcase all their gear.... but im not sure about it, its just not quite me! dont want a castrol rep, too many of them allready, i do like the telefonica RCV but thats last years one now and a bit behind the times, repsols common as muck, konica minolta looks good aswell but hmmmmm Confused

i dunnnooo Laughing

think il wait and see what honda's are running next year and go for an uptodate paint job

Yeah I just think that shade of green looks faded and drab, fortuna rep might be quite nice. Although I still say all black or all black with gold wheels ftw!

I think its fantastic, really distinctive colour scheme too Thumbs Up
