hullo folks,
bought my firestorm on impulse approx 2 years ago immediately rode it to Barcelona - great! Have had many bikes- 1973 dunstall commando, 1936 bsa m24(vintage racer),1979 ducati 900ss (production racer) 1980 Honda cbr900(production racer), 1979 BMW900 with Krauser 4valve heads(death trap) 1990 Ducati 851, 1994 Ducati sp5 but can honestly say that at my time of life VTR is best bike I have had.

Hi and welcome,
I've also got other bikes but i love my Storm and can't really see me ever selling it, i nearly did at the end of last season when i was trying to raise some funds to buy another bike, i had 3 buyers but each time when the chips were down and it came to it i just couldn't do it.
It's a fantastic bike for anyone but even more so for the more mature rider that's not quite grown up yet
(see Benny Hedges) 
Only kidding Benny

welcome to the Storm Form mate.
Agree you have / had some good bike there, clearly you dont follow the crowd and hence why you end up with a Firsestorm.

Not planning to, either.
I saw grown-ups once, wasn't impressed.
