Thanks for the ad. I've just bought a 1998 Firestorm. Sadly the test ride wasn't lots of fun. Probably some of the worst riding conditions I've ever been in. Plus it's been a few years since I last rode a bike. I got to the first roundabout all I could see was oil on the rain soaked roads and metal man hole covers. In fact I was concentrating so much on not stuffing it I couldn't remember my way back and the test was a bit longer than planned. The bike still impressed me and the price was in my budget so I bought it and pick it up next week, as long as it's not snowing.
First V twin I've ever had and the first Honda I've ever bought. Although I did fail my first attempt at a bike test on a borrowed super Dream back in 1980.
