Thanks Chris and Mike for the replies, what I was worried about first of all was if they were there for some supporting of the rear part of the seat but closer inspection it appears they are not, I don't intend to carry pillions anyway, this is my bike my space, lol

Underseat Hooks, are they needed ??

Hi all, I have read somewhere that the hooks under the seat are not really needed and if you remove them its easier to get the seat on and off, is this True ?

Its the ones that are by the centre strap where the seat cowl fits.

Thanks in advance

The joins from the migs to the collector pipes are a slip joint as mike says, its from the collector to the down pipe at the rear cylinder that has the gasket, pretty much the same as my original cans had.

Hi mate, thanks for the advice, I did have Blue Flame twin ports on it and it was running rough with the K&N so thats why I thought I would try the stock air filter with the MIG's which do sound very nice indeed until I have the spare cash for a Dyno Kit, at the moment work is slow and my 16yr o...

Hi chap, I have took the cheaper option at the mo due to cashflow so I have purchased a Stock filter from Fowlers for £24 ish, just so I won't put a hole in the piston etc, then will look at Dynojet kit etc later on.

Thanks

What to do?? Fit a standard filter or do I fit a Dyno Jet ?

Hi all, Just realised that my storm has a K&N Air Filter fitted and I am putting on a pair of MIG High Level cans, so I am going to need to do something sharpish. Do I stick a Honda Air Filter in there instead or should I fit a Dyno Jet kit or is a Factory Pro Kit available in this country ? Tha...

Advice regarding Regulator on a Storm please

Hi all After reading about the R/R problems on the storm I thought while I had the seat covers off etc for exhaust fitting, I would check mine out.
