My craving for a VTR1000SP2 has finally subsided. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are just so few examples available. That’s homologation (Homologation) for you.
The inspection is complete, so I want to move forward steadily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Since I only love Michelin’s center groove design,
I chose the PP3.

This exact size was the only one available right now, which was stressful, but… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I looked into the throttle synchronization.
That’s also pretty inconvenient.
Fuel injection has so many adjustment screws\u2014it’s intimidating.

This should be fine. Once I test ride it and confirm there are no issues, we’re done! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
