hey guys just thought i would pop in here and introduce myself before i start causing havoc with strange questions and requests all over the place,
anyway im 22 live in west wales, been riding for about 3 years started out on gpz500 and got bored of that in 6 months then got myself a yzf750r which i kept till a few weeks ago and now i have seen the light that is the v twin and bought a firestorm a couple of weeks ago,

The storm is a bit tatty being an ex track slag i think, but come winter some new plastics and a bit of practice on my spraying and hopefully she will be looking good. will upload some pics if anyones interested

hey thanks for all the welcomes guys, heres some pics of the new toy, paid £950 for it, its on the register as a cat c but that doesnt bother me, plans for next winter are a full strip down and clean up/replace what ever needs it, manual cct's new panels and a respray, wheels powder coated, sticking with the castrol colours but going for the newer design ones, more imminant things to be done are some cans for it not fussed what cans but on a limited budget, and to strip the front forks down spray the legs new seals and new oil, and get the belly pan i had with it tidied up and put on.

The bottom two pics are the before and afters of my yzf

haha that's a typical sight around here fat men on a mission, it cant be the cake shop hes walking straight past that,

anyhow the cans situation is now sorted, had a pair of art cans and link pipes for £90 plus mine which i didnt think was to bad, and they sound awsome, see how long it takes for it to get on my nerves lol.
