   silvertop VTR at a guess,
   
   Flog it and buy a VTS. Or a VTS with cams in like mine, which curiously is just about to come up for sale...

   Not up on the VTR engine but I think he means is his a Black top or a silvertop 90 or 98 bhp. Apparently there are also 90bhp silvertops. As said i'm not well up on it so unfortunatly can'r help :-(

    nope totally wrong
    
    silvertops started in 99irc - 2001. black tops were the early engine.
    
    so for example my 2000 model is a 90bhp silvertop
