Anyone

Ok just to round the post off the bike is complete.Put the emulsion tubes in yesterday and have done roughly 100miles and not one nudge fart cough nothing just perfection. At one point I thought of selling the Storm when the thing was surging etc but I stuck with it and now have a complete bike. So ...

Thats what I call nipping out for a ride on your new bike
Sounds like you had a good time well done. Just getting my stuff sorted then off down to Scarbrough for an evening run

Just put a pair of Michelin Pilots 2CT on mine and the bike has been transformed compared to my old Metzlers.They look a very soft tyre so dont know how many miles I will get but they are very sticky on the road

If original Apes they should come with new gaskets

Mine went through the same issues as you are having.I listened to all the advice and tried everything but nothing worked. Its only when I got the bike on a dyno the tester found the bike running rich on steady throttle and this was causing the problem(also check for dirty air filter)A dynojet kit wa...

Cheers for the response .I am looking at sorting the pillion out as the wife doesnt mind coming out once in a while.Dont need a full deep seat but need a little rear padding so maybe a gel insert may resolve it

Has anyone got any recommendations for flush fitting clear indicators for the storm ? I like the oval non led ones but dont want to buy some if they dont sit flush on the fairing any ideas chaps Also how visible are they to other traffic once fitted

Lovely looking bike.Mine is the same colour and also has a black belly pan.When I bought it the pan was yellow but a different shade as its a pain to match pearl yellow and bugged the butt out of me.Get some decals on the belly pan and it will look fine.

I dont think there is anything wrong with them.Its just the thought of looking under them lol

Soapy water then dry it off.I then use Meguiars polish followed by Megs carnauba wax for a sparkling finish

Just an update after another 100 miles tonight . Bike fires up well and ticks over around 1100 and is steady with no lumpy feel :D .Very smooth power delivery and rides like a new bike.I get no back firing through the carbs and no exhaust popping through the exhaust. :thumbup: If I am totally honest...
