My first wife put a heavy metal tool box on the seat, rear end of a bike of mine once, scratched it to bits Hence she is an ex wife. That and the fact she was a grumpy fat bitch

Cheers Tony.

I have always resisted covering my bikes in my garage as I have always been worried of trapping moisture and coming back to a rusty heap.
However, at the bike show this week I saw a cover made from 'breathable' material and it's got me wondering again. Any of you guys use a cover?

Hi bud, could you tell me where you got your front flush mount indicators please. The original monsters have got to go. Also, have you had an MOT since fitting the rear light with the indi's built in. I thought there was a rule about the indi's having to be so far each side of the No plate, but I ...

Cheers lads

As a new stormer, I'm a little worried that my mint 1998 barely moves the temp needle, however hard I push the poor old girl. Are we thinking gauge, sender unit or is this the norm

Multiple fill ups it is then. Thanks man

I'm brand new to owning a storm and have a '98. I like the idea of a bigger tank, and this line of chat I presume I can fit a VFR tank to my steed. Any particular year or other little bits I need? All advise welcome. Ta

14 years after attending the bike show, seeing a yellow firestorm on a carousel and falling in love, I finally own one. She is absolutely mint and Steve, you are a top man. Just wanted to say Yo to you other stormers.
