Morning all,
New to the forum, however I did take a peak some years ago.
Had a my Firestorm for nearly four years but for various reasons only managed a few hundred miles on her. I am now hoping to get back into riding and tinkering with the bike.
Looks like I’ll be spending some time reading the 'Bike Maintenance and Upgrades/Modifications’ and other useful links.
I know I need to get some new tyres and the suspension could do with a freshen up, might be asking for best advice on rear shocks. I’d like to move to a high level exhaust too considering that the lefthand can already has some damage.
Anyway hope to be around for sometime, asking and contributing where I can.
Cheers

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Re: Saying "Hello" from Derbyshire
Raised in Leicestershire with Coalville the largest nearby town. Happy that Derbyshire accepted me. Lived in both South and North Derbyshire. Currently just north of Derby itself in a lovely village on the A6. Get to enjoy some great roads and countryside.
Thank you all for the welcome here too
