Welcome along chap, ignore all the red haters, they're all just jelous that their bikes are 50bhp and 100 mph down on the red ones. It's a well proven fact that a red storm can drop a pair of knickers from half a mile away too, although the luggage rack might reduce this to a quarter mile

Well my storm and sp1 are both running yoshi cans and are pretty loud and for me, I love the noise of a booming twin. Not so fond of an inline 4 with an open can, followed a harley through the limehouse link in central london today and that was bloody loud, not my thing, neither was the Victory spac...

Took my Ohlins shock (at long last ) to be serviced at FTR Suspension to find out it was originally from an '87 GSX-R 750! The next surprise will be the bill :eek2 So is your ohlins the right dimensions for a storm mate? I had an ohlins serviced and re-sprung, I think the spring was £80 and the ser...

Gave her a quick spray with mr sheen, lubed the chain with the assistance of the wife, placed a nice little moriwaki sticker on the hugger and wrote up a list of bits I need to get for a service although I did find a k&n oil filter that I'd stashed up, result!

Hello and welcome from another FNG, I like the look of that

Good news chap, must be a huge relief to you and your family

Thats really nice, I bet your chuffed with it

I've heard a product called acf50 is supposed to be very good and preventing corrosion and also treats whatever is already present. I've just ordered a can for mine for a good going over.

welcome in . :thumbup: :thumbup: how do you find time to ride all those bikes ? :D Cheers, simple answer is I don't! They're the bikes that I oggled at as a young man on the pages of PB and trips to the alexandra palace road racing show, I had grand designs of having an early R1 and a zx7r in there...

Cheers guys, I'll keep my eyes open for you, I've seen a few storms around on my travels around the county. Just got to give mine a once over and get her mot done and I'll be good to go.
