Yes it was an amazing bike, but i need to do 2 up this year. I can't afford 2 with the cars, boat and horse etc.

Have you used maxxis tyre before? what are your thoughts. I just fitted a supermaxx on my front and will be fitting a supermaxx rear once this pilot 4 is down to the limitsfabiostar wrote:suns out, fitted a new rear maxxis supersport tyre and wavy disc and,well had to run them in as you do![]()

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Today I fitted a lh side top hose from a VTR to my commuter hack CB600f.
Only 'cause the rh side top hose split on that, and it was roughly the same shape, but a bit longer.
Hopefully the head didn't warp, or the head gasket go, as I only noticed when the temp gauge was firmly stuck at the top of the red block....
I wonder what other Storm bits will fit.?

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

Nothing new just the same old light flywheel, good exhaust and HRC bits in the carbs and ECU.grumpyfrog wrote:you don't hanga round do yah fella? doing any further mods whilst she's apart or going back to "your" stock settings?
In fact I am loosing my ported heads but the minor gain isn't worth pulling the heads or spending the cash.
