Welcome to the forum. I've been here a shortish while and so far if theres one thing I've learnt about Firestorms is.... What Tony doesnt know about the bike isnt worth knowing.

Enough, already.
But at last I can reveal what I paid for the bike as a non-runner, with a starting problem.
it wasn't the starter motor, and it wasn't the sprag clutch, both of which had been replaced by the so-called-mechanic that sold it to me.
it was the two locked gears between the two, which weren't quite locked enough and slipped under torque load.
Two hours to sort, spare part was in stock.
So I bought the bike, delivered to my home in a van for £400.
Happy to buy any other non-runners for a similar price, happen you have one lying around.....
Get polishing, Tony!
See you at the Oakdene tonight, let's see what you've modded so far....
