There you go.

Welcome to the forum, I went from Fazer to storm as well. You will love the torquey V twin, takes bit of getting used to at first. And you will love it even more with louder cans. :D

I take it you have read up on CCTs already then. :lol:

Enjoy :beer: :beer: :beer:

HI Mate.

You will love the Storm. I got mine in November last year, 2001, 11k miles (mint like yours looks)

I wont bore you, but i have had 7 bikes in 11 years............should have bought this when i first looked at one in 2001!

I have added some mirror extenders (off ebay, my second pair for different bikes i have had £25), they fit easily and at least give you some chance of seeing behind you!
