Yea its the one that runs next to the larger hose to the bottom. May have been from the pair but all that plumbing is gone now. I'll just cap that T then

its rubber. so its supposed to be a single line going from the tank straight down as a vent?

you are both wrong!! ahaha JK no the piece that goes in the rear right of the petcock is already installed and goes from the petcock, to a T (for balancing) and then tho the rear cylinder vaccum take off. this is a different hose. do you guys have a hose attatched to the nipple i am talking about on...

lol ive been doing alot of work swapping parts over between bikes and i cant remember where this goes? its a long 3 peice T hose that goes from the tank and then T's off and goes down to the bottom as a vent line i guess but i cant figure out where the 3rd end goes. heres the hose, and it connects t...

Its only the hanger bracket i need. I already have the right side (clutch side) bracket so I only the left side. Willing to buy a pair tho if you don't want to separate them

Yes the rear shock is well "shocking" as standard. A decent aftermarket one doesn't make it faster, but allows you to ride it faster over crappy roads, if that makes sense! its a great mod. it doesnt make your bike faster per say... but sorting both ends of the suspension brings more conf...

Did you fit the USD forks or did you buy it that way? I'm a big advocate of the USD forks on the VTR. Makes a pretty impressive difference. The VTR got skimped in the suspension and brakes department if you ask me. The bonus to USD's is you usually get a better brakes package as well as much beffier...

ahhhh yes! i have seen that thread before. what a VTR. ive been itching for a set of ohlins forks. i see them come up for the RC every so often. a bit too rich for my blood. of course i say that now....

No point in putting a VFR tank on a track bike. You want smaller not more. Unless you thinking of that for Kemit.

a vfr 400 tank .

Who's storm is this? With ohlins forks ??? She's beautiful!

There's 2 highly detailed threads on superhawkforum.com with lots of pictures. It involves custom linkage brackets and dog bones as well as a custom exhaust as the shock has to be moved and gets in the way of the rear header. Other than that's its mostly bolt on if you have the rear brake and sprock...

Unless the manual calls for thread locker, dont put loctite on it. As long as its torqued to spec, it will stay there

Honestly I love the storm. I'm with you in the riding style. I'm more of a track day and dropping knee in the canyon rider than I am a cruise around the hills kinda guy. Anyways the VTR is an EXCLLENT bike for this kind of riding AFTER you put a LOT of money into it. If I started over I'd probably g...

no problem carl, ill just head for the coast doing about 140 with knobby tires and if i keep her pinned i should be able to skim across the top of the pond that is the Atlantic ocean and personally deliver the bike to the buyer

You won' be able to get into the garage soon! Does this mean the Ducati will be moving on? i believe so Kev. honestly im just not interested in the maintainence and up keep they require. it reminds why i love the storm so much. after snooping around the Duc forums, i see they have way to many "...
