Hello Folks i finally found a VTR Forum. Well one thats populated anyway.

Well guys i sold my hornet in sept last year it was my first bike and i loved it. as soon as it drove up the road the pit feeling was there already.

how ever on a trip to midland superbikes on sunday. i found the bike that would be my next one. a 2002 VTR Firestorm. i didnt even know the name of this bike and i actually went to see a 954 fireblade. the VTR was tucked away in a corner and it immediatly caught my eye.

id never concidered a firestorm untill now. well i put the deposit down and im picking her up tomorrow.!!!!


and here she is (hope this works)

and another to the fold, welcome in fella, bike looks a good un, get some cans on her and let her sing

Welcome mate, looks a very nice storm with some tidy mods

Welcome fella.................giz them wheels

Yeah I'm very excited my hornet was four cylinder so bit concerned I might not like going to 2 cylinders

Nice one matey

Welcome to the fold

Welcome! IL4 to V2, no comparison... you'll love it, after you become best friends with the rev limiter that is! Just check the speedo once in a while....

Your wet yourself when you put after market cans on her. I have Vipers on mine, and I have not heard a louder Storm I have come across.
I prefer the sound of it over a Ducati IMO.

Welcome Aboard
It'll feel a bit lumpy and shake a bit but as soon as you drop a gear and pin the throttle you won't stop grinin like a loon for a week!

Had an early Hornet for three years myself, then went to the Storm (via a couple of others).

Samish top end bhp, but the Storm definitely feels quicker accelerating, although a bit lazier in the bends.

And sounds a million times better!

Half the cylinders.......twice the fun

You will love it. I don't miss inline 4s at all .V Twin all the way now you will not regret it trust me.

Sorry where are my manners welcome to the best bike site for Firestorms

Excited excited

welcome mate,nice lookin bike,a set of cans make a big difference i got vipers on mine that sound awesome but theres plenty to choose from bewolf do a good selection so might be worth lookin at

cheers for moral support lads.

on way to get it now!
