That will be great Rick
I know there's a lot of Stormers out there running different front cogs
It should create quite a bit of interest and if you plan it right maybe a
little in the retirement fund

Hi Skid, Nah It's just a big V twin. I use mine all winter and I get the same problem. It can be a sign of a weak battery,the optimate a good idea. What I find also helps is to press the starter button and let the engine turn over before pulling out the choke. Sometimes with the choke out first my e...

Sorry Neophyte. I couldn't resist :lol: :lol: On a more serious note i also get a slight chirping (induction noise) and a whine from the cam tensioner>unless yours is really noisey (ie bearing whine or something) I wouldn't worry.As noises are normally quite difficult to explain let your local deale...

Hmmm... We had to have a little think about this one.The boys over here in good old Blighty have put our heads together and from reading your symptoms we believe the problem probably lies in the air box. Remove the top and check the filter. Most likley you will find a birds nest. As the revs rise mo...

My thoughts are with you and your family.

You'll be sorley missed

Rest in peace.

What pipes have you got on?. If you are running std pipes try mix screws 1 3/4 turns out. Needles circlip on 4th groove down from the top (or 5th without bottom washer will lessen hiccup around 4k rpm if using K&N filter) and 170 main jet. Or for best results put your hand in your pocket and get...

Mart,
I've got an original screen in my garage collecting dust if you want it. Or if not, why not have a look at M&P they do loads of after market screens. treat yourself to a nice double bubble one or something in what ever colour or tint you fancy.

Hi All. Has anyone had any dealings with the Laser Duel Tech exhaust? I quite fancey the idea of the choice of having a nice deep tone (sounding like a twin should ) or being able to change the end piece and having a FIM regulation Exhaust for the odd track day/sunday morning jaunt. If anyone's fitt...

Hey Wayne, is this because your treads going as thin as my hairline or is this because of the screw you had stick in your diablo(or however yuo spell it) a little while back? If it's cus of the puncture I would highly recomend "Ultra seal". It costs a little more than some of the others bu...

Hi Basil. Welcome to the joys of owning a storm. In short yes they do stall. :( Honda says "what did you expexct from a large carburated twin.It's part of It's character" You can make the problem better by keep the carbs in synk and changing the plugs to some irridium ones. It probably doe...
