The VTR Firestorms, same motors as the SP1 & SP2 but not as mad & the riding position is more upright.

Presumming they changed the cams to gear driven due to the cct issues which is easy to fix if you use manual tensioners.

So I was told the tensioner on the rear cylinder doesnt get enough oil and breaks down cause your chain to slip hit valves etc but i don't think it's a common thing

To add to that I have been told to have the bike upright when starting from cold & not to let it warmup on the side stand.
