Already? You didn't get that very long ago did you ?Had I known (and it was in my meagre price range) I would have been interested .
At least they make some horsepower .
The VT , with the pipes and k&n and jet kit puts out around a massive 50 , yep you read that right , 50 hp !!! And at a svelte 250 odd kg the power to weight ratio is mind-blowing (but for all the wrong reasons...)
I can barely control the beast .......

Definitely a 'relaxing ride' until you feel the need to overtake . That takes considerable forward planning along with a considerable run-up !

But hey , it's a bike and I'm happy just to be back on two wheels .

And it does sound good .

I am going to turn it into a cafe racer cruiser () if that makes any sense . Have some 'm' or 'ace' cafe racer bars on the way and have started making an old skool sprung seat and have a few other ideas I am playing with to make it a bit different and stand out in a crowd .
Should be a fun project .
Will post some pics when done .
