I spent ages earlier on cleaning her all up and polishing her and it looks even better than the pictures here. These were taken by the previous owner.

I think she looks ace and she rides really nicely, those exhausts are far too quiet though.

Re: Pictures of my new 1998 Firestorm, what do you think?
Thanks for the comments guys. There are a couple of issues one of which you will have read about in my previous posts the other is a lug on the rear seat panel has snapped and it moves around a bit. No biggy really. I cant wait to get the CCT's replaced and the timing checked so i can get out on her.Beamish wrote:Very nice mate....best colour for a Storm IMO

Me thinks i will have to look into that. She sounds like she's got standard cans on; not at all what i was expecting.marravtr wrote:looks clean matey, cut the cans in half, make em stubbies, she'll sing then :wink2

I had thought about doing that and getting some oval road legal pipes with removable baffles but all i can find on Ebay are race pipes and standard ones. I would like the option of it being a bit quiet sometimes like when i'm touring on it.Timbo wrote:Hi, nice looking Storm you have there mate.
Your microns would sell in seconds on ebay, trust me. If they are too quiet, dump them and buy some loud pipes !!or have i got the wrong person?

This back tyre is mental too, i presume its a dual compound tyre? I have never used a soft tyre like this before but it looks like the previous owner had some fun with it.

Good looking bike my friend you will have to come on the ride out next year. The tyers are the same as mine nice and soft but they don't last as long but grip the road like glue.
