What is the best remedy for the failing chrome on the oil pipes at the front of the engine, that go up to the oil cooler? apart from the obvious of buying new pipes.

cheers Chris.

Fireman thanks for reply

cheers Chris.

Hi Fireman, Well I was going to ask Tony but seeing as you've done the same bar convertion can you tell me, do you actually drill two holes for the new risers in the exsisting top plate of the yoke? I'm pleased for you that the new riding position has meant you can keep the Storm, Cheers Chris.

Warren thats exactally the reply I wanted to hear, that was also my way of thinking that it might help to cut down on the stalling at junctions etc (I know some VTR owners don't experience stalling but I do) I have ordered a pair which should arrive today, along with a puncture preventative sealant....

Thanks guy's for all your replys/opinions and that includes you to cupasoop
cheers Chris.

My bike is soon due for a service, so I thought I would give the Split fire plugs a try, has anybody tried these?
cheers Chris.

Thanks for your effort Erk and Iggy for your special input, all we need now is Jacey boy with his opinion.

Just been looking at your SP1 pictures. I've got to say she looks in immaculate condition, a very cool machine.

Stormtrooper i'll try and explain. When I go to the motorcycle: parts and accs. section the main page for that section is laid out differently, for a start the "search items available to the uk" is no longer there! plus some other minor changes, but the main thing is after viewing an item,...

Anyone noticed anything different on ebay set up for the above sections?
or is it just me,
Chris.

Blimey coming out with idea's like that sounds like you're nearly ready for a Harley!!!!!!!!


Only joking, good luck with it,

cheers Chris.

Dont take this as gospel either,
but it might just save you a few pounds. I was told that Honda use NSK bearings as genuine parts (NSK 6204DU) if you go direct to a bearing manufacturer/supplier you will save yourself about 8 quid per bearing!
Let us know how you get on!

cheers Chris.

Check tyre pressures,
Chris.
