This is more the bored mind of a man "on the sick" than a plan or ambition, but I was wondering whether anyone here had tried putting a 2 into 1 exhaust on the storm, ( I know its been done on the track storm featured in a magazine last year).... And if they had, what difference good or ba...

thanks....
Am sure its battery as it was on its way out before winter, swapped r/r last year....

Hi again.... Thought I best say my hellos again after a break from the forum. Not posted in a while, but still have a 2000 storm, currently in yellow and yet to break it with any more unfortunate tinkering mishaps... Not ridden for a couple of weeks as just had my gall bladder removed.... Last time ...

Just to add my twopenuth': After taking advice from here.... I have 188/192 mains and 50 pilots (mine had 48's as standard) And I did not had to shim the needles...

Part numbers found... Thanks (again). As a matter of interest, according to Haynes manual models after 1998 (w,x or y) had size 48 pilots as standard (1997 "v" was 45).... So maybe thats why some people report more low revs trouble, than others when fitting after market filters.? Guess I n...
