gave it a wash after the rainy ride yesterday.... set the suspension the same as how i had the sp1, fitted a pair of shiny ti akropovic cans & linkys, then fitted power commander with a downloaded map off tintarwebs, then took it for a ride to the rocket centre open day.... spotted a mobile dyn...

well ive just done the stack mod changed to 2 long stacks but weather is crap cant get it out and test it what can i expect guys? also reroted the breather pipe that causes the stalling after heavy breaking while i was on I've just fitted the long stack at the front, to be honest I can't really tel...

Mate you've just bought an SP2 haven't you?? I also love my storm but I would trade it in at the drop of a hat for an SP2!

You've obviously made your mind up bud so just go with your gut !

When you feel like your missing it go for a ride on the SP LOL

Is it your only storm Benny, or is it a spare you have?

Trust me, you DON'T need to go to the expense and hassle of a fuel pump! I had the exact same symptoms on a trackday at donington and was shown by another rider what to do, next session the problem was gone. sort the breather pipes for FREE before you do anything else. Could you let me know how to ...

FIT A FUEL PUMP OFF A ZX6R OR SIMILAR AND IT WONT HAPPEN AGAIN. i was getting similar on high speed flat out accel runs, it felt like it wasnt filling the carbs fast enough but i think its more to do with the fact that the fuel is gravity fed. heavy accel or -gravity hard braking will affect it. fi...

That's good but I bet he can't put a fruit pastel in his mouth without chewing it!

Im still really getting to know my way round the storm, which ones are the hoses i let hang down mate?

Probably fuel surge, so the carbs were not able to fuel properly, takes a few seconds to refill. Alternatively, little bits of crud get disturbed in the float bowls, and temporarily clog jets until they sink back to the bottom of the bowl again. Yeah it made me think id broken it after having it 5 ...

Whilst out on a sunny thash when I first got my storm just over a year ago, i decided to test the brakees out on a quiet country lane. More to give me a bit of confidence more than anything. And to test them out as you never know what numpys been tinkering with it previously lol! Was doing about 45i...

Yeah i agree, its a hard one to judge now theres more than one (closely matching) Blue

It would be good as Kev says to match them side by side.
