Hi from Bangor, N.Ireland
Hi from Bangor, N.Ireland
Thought I'd say a quick hello.
Recently bought a yellow '98 Firestorm. A real cracker with Microns, polished rims and loads more extras.
Fantastic bike - absolutely love it. Although sitting in the garage for the past 3 weeks because of the weather have resulted in a flat battery :-( Is this normal and should I have been starting it up once a week?
Cheers
Walt

Welcome aboard mate.
i'd have thought the battery wouldn't have gone flat myself.
mine goes flat in a week if not on the optimate because i have an alarm fitted.

My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal
Re: Hi from Bangor, N.Ireland
Bought it in Belfast about 3 months back. It's had a few owners - all in N. Ireland. Apparently one of them had it hidden in a barn so his wife didn't know he had it!
I'll post some pics soon.

Welcome. Re your battery, if you have an alarm then 2 weeks without starting could drin the battery. My Meta used to (till it went kaput and I stripped it out)
Two bikes, still only four cylinders!
