Yep, thats exactly how it looks. Just thought there would be some kind of K&N mark on it... Have seen cheap copies in the past that look very similar...

IS THIS A K&N ????

Hi, thought i had better check my air filter before splashing out on a K&N and it looks like it may already have one. The filter looks like a K&N (red and black) but there are no markings on it. I always thought from previous filters that there would be some kind of makers mark on it. Have n...

WIRE COLOURS Help.....

Fitting an alarm to the storm and thought i would have a go myself and save some money. Appears straight forward but could be made easier if anyone knows the colour's of certain wires on a 2000 model. Need to locate the live feed to the ignition key, the ignition wire that becomes live on turning th...

VFR Mirror's on Firestorm

Is it possible to fit miror's from a VFR onto the Firestorm. Believe i saw on another topic that the larger VFR mirror's would fit straight on as a direct replacement. If this is true does any body know which model VFR mirror's are needed?????

However i wanted to move these to high mount and contacted my local Scorpion dealer to see how much it would be to get the hi-level link pipes (been looking on ebay but no luck). They have said that this is not possible as the cans on...

Thanks....

Did not think it sounded right. Got bike serviced by dealer when i bought it but they were not a Honda main dealer. Oil and filter have certainly been done but without removing bits it's hard to confirm that they have done the other stuff to. Got no reason to suspect the dealer as they seem a decent...
