Anyhoo thanks again and look forward to chattin.
Kind regards

Hi all, thanks for the replies, I dont know who Marras is so probably not mate!!! I'm just back from a blast to Southend, certainly clears the cobwebs!!
I will post some piccies when I can work out how to!!! Im not really computer literate.
Im in Romford Essex, any other SP1/2 owners nearby?
I too considered a Ducati but I kinda like the exclusivity of the SP if you know what I mean, my bike is ten years old but looks like it is new (ish) I just wonder what Dukes will look like in 10/15 years. Good old Honda build quality.
Finally have any othe SP owners fitter a Power commander?? Im not to bothered about extra BHP, i would just like to sort out the low speed fuelling.
Finally take care out there ther are far too many cars on the road.
Regards, cheesy

Hi, there's a few Storm owners in Essex, funnily enough was there this after collecting some spare carbon sleeves (Cheers, Jonesy!) for the project shed.
Some rideouts, camping weekends, keep an eye on the relevant section, next planned one is Silverstone BSB Sept 23-25.
Can't help you with fueller box, but can recommend HM Racing in Edenbridge, Kent for setting up and dyno, if there's no-one nearby that you trust.
Good of you to drop by...
