yes that is what I have fitted, very happy with the quality the fitting kit and the aftersales service.

They had to make mine new as there was none in stock, and when it got hot [it is very close to the front pipe as it goes under the engine] it was smelled like the resin was melting.............so I called them worried that it would melt........He said it was smelling so strong as the resin was fresh, and that it would be OK with the heat, but sent some heat reflective tape FOC incase I wanted to fit that :thumbup:

Lazy bugger that I am, I still havnt fitted the tape, but now the fibreglass is aged it no longer smells when hot.

Only comment I have is that I can ground it out on the right hand side, exactly where it trys to clear the front pipe under the clutch. it is taking 10mm or more off the ground clearance, and if I have it right over and I hit a bump mid bend it will touch down. I need to look at changing the brackets to tuck it in tighter, but again that has to wait till I can be bothered.

If you look in the "pimp my ride" section for AMQ storm, you will see some pictures.
