Hello again!

Post by curly »

Hi all,
Haven't been here for about a year! Had my first ride of the year on my Storm today, felt really fast!
Had it about 14 years now, still loving it.
Good to see some old names still on here.

Cheers,
Curly.

Hi mate :D
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!

do it... I am a yr and a bit older than you and I now wish I had done it yrs ago.

its not just about the comfort and usability, but it suits the bike so well and allows me to go faster on typical UK roads

Those are good bits of kit, but there have been a lot of complaints about how long it takes to get delivery if they don't have stock....and how bad the company is at communicating..

I don't have personal experience of this as I make my own yoke, but read a lot of horror stories on here... Should be some you can find in the dodgy dealers section
