I dug some pictures out of my various YPVS’s that I’ve had over the years and thought I would post them up on here. I’m trying to do it on Tapatalk so hope it works out ok. First one aged 17, bought from Orwell motorcycles in Ipswich, Suffolk in 1993. It was E reg and had an Abbots stage 2 tune on it. Don’t know anything about the tune but it was engraved on the head. Next up approx 1995, bought locally as a bit of a project but was on the road. Purchased this one in boxes in approx 2000 and did my first full rebuild. Still own this one and currently giving it a refresh as mentioned in other posts. Think I bought this one off of someone on here approx 2009( Pete if I remember correctly), originally for my now wife but she didn’t get on with a kick start! Lastly for now, this one came about from a frame off of eBay and another bike I bought to break previously. As you can see I’ve had a lot of bikes with micron gp pipes fitted and I’m not even that keen on them😂

Superb. Funny how that happens with parts/accessories we dont like, they tend to follow us home no matter what we do.

😂😂 too true.
I remember a mate of mine bought the first set of gp pipes I/we knew of, he thought he had bought a normal, i.e either side, set of microns and couldn’t figure out why they didn’t fit his bike.

Nice selection of YPVS's 👍 Are you going to make the F2 you bought for your wife like the one you had when you was 17?

I only have the black lc2 and the white one in the last pic now. I keep thinking I would like to do a hybrid with the white one, one day but other projects to do first.
