Hi...
your 'Storm sounds good.... I have a pair of scorpion cans and can't wait to get them on
:D

Interesting about the Z750 , I liked the styling was thinking about one before I got my Storm.

Enjoy... Patrick

cheers peeps.. hi pat, as for the z maybe being a little over criticle but there is no one thing that lets it down.. it does look the baldrocks but for a so called budget(??? £5,500 2000price) naked thats made up out of the parts bin they could of spent another 100 quid on it n made it a stonker.. silly things like bars bein a couple of inches to narrow.. (end up holdin bar ends???) no protection to shock(mines now a mingin rusty turd after 4,200m) no cover on rad (pennies fer a bit of plastic) horn sat right behind wheel.. pathetic paint quality, several painted alloy parts rotting allready?? silly gearing means more changes than a 50cc moped to 30?? dubious handling.. the list goes on.. ok people say to upgrade it with AM parts but then why not buy the thou? but.. £8500 fer a naked?? beemer , trumpet prices?? rant rant rant.. do you get the feeling i dont like me sakakaki.. pmsl.. stormer. love it.. no rust, no flaky paint, turns corners, annoys the neighbors, goes like stink. all fer a 10 year old bike.. n 3 n half grand cheaper.. :thumbup:
