It's here!!
Haven't ridden it yet. But there's very little 'Firestorm' about it is there?' Will set to my OCD cleaning now!
Now, like many, we sit and check the weather apps for a bit of a break.

Good choice!
Now, what extras do you have planned?
The goodies I have on mine could possibly find a new home before it's sold, slipper clutch? Radial brake and clutch mc's?
2:1 titanium Arrows full system?
Would sir like to consider a pcv and maps?
First one I'd choose would be a lithium battery, but mines now on the new bike, so not for sale.

Hello! Welcome to the dreamy yellow side
I'll soon have a belly fairing (unsure if you can really cal lthat tiny piece of plastic a bellypan) going spare if you'd like a yellow to match the rest of your plastics?

Well bugger, I just read the posts properly and have just seen that you already traded her in.
Will advertise somewhere

Thanks Tony. I'm more a stickler for originality on these bikes, however, the 2:1 does have history with Honda as we have discussed in another thread:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=43769
I could be interested, but as a full system it might well be out of reach for me financially. The other side is that (perhaps more so on the 4-cyls) fuelling becomes affected and then more money needs to be sunk in to rectify.
I am a big believer in lithium batteries, but would change over when this one's expired. Perhaps like yours, mine won't be knocking up too many miles.

Yeah, thanks for the offer. I would have been a goer for that. I had looked at the Pyramid ones and humming and harring and then the SP-2 came up and compulsion got the better of me!! Cheers!!

I put 12k miles on in 4 years, mostly on forum meet ups.
Fair enough re the fuelling with the Arrows Titanium 2:1 full system, but then, if you simply plugged in the PCV with a map already loaded.........
Or sell yours and buy mine!

Mine had that mileage once, and look what happened to it!
