Does it give much more feel on the storm?
just for the bling factor or?
Also does any one know the lightest standard rear wheel that is a direct swap for a storm swing arm?
remember seeing blade wheel stats some where a year or so back but think it may have been on another forum

Re: Braced firestorm swingarm
youll need to change the rear caliper & bracket, or machine the stay for it and fit a blade hugger as well... toying with changing the s/a on mine cos i hate the standard clothes prop effort.
lightest wheels would no doubt be a set of marchesinis if you have lots of £££

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Stick" to brace or not to brace" into the search facility Seb. I did mine for the look more than anything.

Same here.
Not difficult, and I certainly didn't notice any feeling improvement in handling terms.
Might be a difference on a track day, possibly.
Or I might just have a not-very-sensitive butt.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
