My silverstorm has arrived

Post by kev64 »

Picked my belated birthday present up (from me to me)
Went the long way home, Did about 100miles (Hereford/Leominster/ Kidderminster)
Had a smashing time no problems, and enjoyable throbbing experience, but I ached this morning !!
The bike is fairly standard (for now), Heres a couple of pics

I don't think the Teal on the wheels will help. :wink:

Welcome to the forum, looks to be a very clean looking bike. Has the front fairing had a re-spray at some stage. :beer:

It's the non std stickers that give it away, but Carl also uses a magnifying glass to examine every picture in forensic detal :lol:

Glad you enjoyed the 1st ride and you also read the forum rules of having a wheelie bin in all bike photos :D

oh I see, just checked, stickers the same both sides so I wouldn't know
But the fairing has been apart at some stage as it hasn't quite gone back together right
as I said before, something to sort in the winter

Thats a great looking machine you have there .. I think that the
" Hi Ho Silver " storms are quite rare and you have quite a find there
m8tey .. all I can say is take through the cogs and let it have its head
bootifull .. then award yourself a :beer: as a reward ( after your ride )
then stand back 2 metres and admire ... nice one :thumbup:

that looks a nice bike. Just read the threads on "Must do mods" for the storms.
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
