As long as they're internally smooth, you can easily cut'n'shut a good one of the same throat diameter onto the Storm bases.

So the question now becomes:
What other bikes have the same throat size as a Storm?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

still doin' it....
this is my busiest time of year.
iv'e got 2 long std 'storm trumpets, and the top curved sections cut from the tops of a pair of SP1 trumpets, just gotta find 5 mins to glue them together and smooth out any imperfections. i was gonna send them so someone on here to try on their bike, i'll have to check my pm's to see who it was, lol.

Happy to give them a run, and if there's a noticeable difference I'll get them dyno'd.

NO guesswork, and I (and many others) can attest they work, and very well at that!

Once rob or I get round to doing the dyno test comparison, and assuming the paper results back up the seat of the pants dyno, I can bet there will be another group buy like the one muppet organised.

He got a better price by ordering 4 sets, but this time we need to avoid the import charges. I am happy to have them sent to my work mate in Detroit area, then either he will bring them over or I will collect, who ever has the next trip planned.
