Probably not a lot of help if you're hoping to make your own, but the only member on here I can remember fitting a quick shift gear change to his Storm was "theweeeman" and that was years ago. He had his bike fitted with a Pro-Shift gear changer, he didn't do it himself:-

Thinking about adding one to the pcv on the sp2.I'd like an Hm Racing one, but they're top money.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I was thinking more of a DIY deal. But the more i look into it the harder it seems.

i had a quickshifter on my sp1, great piece of kit, iirc dynojet do one for a storm, a bit different from the type on modern bikes but the same result, i did see them on german ebay, and i think rob de hoo was trying to sort something out regarding them.

On a Storm you can only cut the ignition, as it has carbs.
On an SP1 and 2 you can also cut injectors.

Oh, yes....
But ideally get one with variable time cuts for each gear, as the differences between ratios varies.
