Yep, that was owned by Crotchrocket in the UK.Originally Posted by braaus
He used to wheel it offroad a lot - check out his gallery for the VX being driven underground in some caves in France.
He has since sold the VX and joined the UK darkside - Landrover.
He still visits occasionally. You could send him a PM about the bike if you want to.
Good luck on the 21st.
There is alot of talk on here about burning engine oil, and checking your oil at every fill up. I suggest you do that for the first 4 - 5 tanks, until you get an idea what your vehicle is doing. Some burn, some don't. Most of the 3.2L engines don't burn oil, but you can't be too careful.
I usually top up with 0.5 - 1 litre of oil once, near to the next oil change.
I change oil every 5000 km.
The VX rides very stiff if it has the OEM shockers in good condition. Takes a bit of getting used to. Some soften the ride a bit by replacing shocks or cutting bump stops. Depends on what floats your boat I guess - mine is perfect for me as standard.
