cheap firestorm

If somehone had £1200 burning a hole in their pocket they could have my 97 bike, only just got it but we're not getting on

Got to ask mate, you posted yesterday that you just got it, asked a load of questions and by today you say you are not getting on with it and you would sell it for £1200.

Is it the talk about the timebomb CCT`s that has put you off? Reg/rect? Simple fixes for not a lot of money. Why are you not getting on with it? I personally don`t think you have given the bike a chance and would regret selling it if you did. I have mostly ridden fours and sixes but I get such a buzz from the twins that I have. Sure, they are different beasts to ride and they take a bit of adjusting to but once you`ve got there, well, happy days

If someone had £1200 burning a hole in their pocket they could have my '97 bike with Harris pipes and keep £200 of it!

See, THAT's a cheap Firestorm.

And this time of year, realistic, too.

I'm sorry to hear you are not happy with your latest bike. I will admit the Firestorm is a bit of a marmite bike, in the sense you either love it or hate it.

I know peoples tastes vary, but I have had a fair few old British bikes at the start of my biking years, and I think it's because of that I find the Firestorm such a joy to ride. I think it may be to do with the fact both the old British bikes and the more modern Firestorm have loads of torque.

What is it exactly you don't like/get along with Is it the riding position perhaps
