It will work, but it will be brigther... but also hotter! So (correct me if i'm woring) there's a small possiblilty that it could start melting the plastic... so I would keep an eye on it!

They are 12v x 1.7w... just a bought a few myself from wemoto (75p each)...

I just booked trackday @ Lydden Hill this saturday 11th october.

There were a few inters & advanced spaces left when I phoned...

...probably too late, but anyone else interested / going ?

PS weather looking very nice indeed.

My air filter is due for renewal soon, & I was toying with the idea of getting an aftermarket one to replace it.... and perhaps get some power/torque gains? Now I've heard that K&N sometimes don't work that well on 'storms... can anyone confirm this? Also what about others such as pipercross...

Or this chap in USA on ebay... even cheaper

Borrowed an impact driver & it did the job... must get myself one of these handy tools

thanks everyone for your help!

We sell this through our branch in Gatwick, give them a buzz... they take Credit card sales.

Hmmm... sounds good. Have you ever used it? If so, does it work well in your experience?

Would be interested to hear.

cheers

Hi folks Went to change the front brake pads today... & have found that the end plug that you have to unscrew before you can unscrew the hanger pin won't budge! It's made of soft metal, & my attempts with a flat head screwdriver are just making a mess of the screw head, & now the screwdr...

Hi Welcome to one of the most helpful forums on the net! Mine's a pint of real ale please! The Firestorm does indeed make a great daily ride... & then some! I use mine all year round for commuting, touring (solo & two-up) & numerous trackdays too! Enjoy snooping around these pages cheers...

Not sure about your brakes mate... although I had a similar problem with mine a while back. I found adjusting the span thingy outwards a touch more & tying the lever back overnight actually cured the problem for me!?! ... oh & http://www.lyddenhill.co.uk They just announced a new date on 13t...

I havn't done Snetterton yet - kinda because of the reasons you mention...

Lydden Hill is also a great little circuit IMO... very short, but much more difficult than you think - the 'storm works great here! Brands & Rockingham National are my other personal faves at the moment !
