Thanks everyone, the information on settings would indeed be very useful. Please post.

Picked up my new Firestorm on Saturday, and the engine died on me while changing up from 1st into 2ng gear before I'd even pulled out of the dealers car park! Well, I just assumed that it was operator error, being a new bike & all that, so I just fired it up again and pissed off before anyone no...

Thanks Oliv

I see that the two lower fixings screws are hidden behind the instrument panel, does this mean the clocks have to be removed in order to fit a new screen?

So, I picked up the Firestorm on Saturday and discovered within 10 miles of riding that the screen/half fairing offers considerably less wind protection than my CBR600. :( sh1t!

I've only just found out that front & rear suspension on the VTR has limited adjustment (all my previous machines have been fully tweakable), is this a major problem, as I certainly don't want to buy a bike and ...

Much appreciated. I had a couple of Hinkley Triumphs before the CBR and was shocked when the 600 returned an average of 10 mpg less at 45 mpg, which is why I'm so concerned about petrol consumption, so the prospect of getting even lower fuel economy is not appealing. :? Nonetheless if the VTR has ot...

I realise that by posing this question on this forum I'm likley to receive a biased response, but I'd appreciate your opinions anyway. I'm currently riding a CBR600FS-1 and although I'm impressed with Honda build quality, I'm less than enamoured with the amount of thrashing necessary to ride a moder...
