Just been looking at your SP1 pictures. I've got to say she looks in immaculate condition, a very cool machine.

What do you think of the SP1 after the Storm, I know the handling will be up compared to the Storms standard suspension and obviously it will have more power being fuel injected but apart from that how does it compare?
What about the insurance, is there a huge differance?
I hope you are pleased with it, especially now you've fitted the power commander and after market cans,
cheers Chris.

La SP1/SP2 es una máquina totalmente distinta a nuestra FireStorm. La diferencia empieza en el precio; en España cuesta más de 5000 euros más. Con esta diferencia monta componentes mucho más caros y mas eficaces desde el punto de vista deportivo: chasis y basculante sobre dimensionados, mejores suspensiones, frenos y llantas así como mejoras en el motor (distribución por cascada de engranajes, inyección, calado de árboles de levas diferente y otro encendido).
Tambien se trata de una moto más exigente con el piloto, áspera y con más mala leche que nuetra FireStorm. La nuestra es más cómoda y polivalente, más noble y te perdona los errores.

Saludos :wink:

The SP1/SP2 is a machine totally different from our FireStorm. The difference begins in the price; in Spain it costs more than 5000 euros more. With this difference it much more mounts expensive and but effective components from the sport point of view: tilted chassis and on determine the proportions, better suspensions, brakes and rims as well as improvements in the motor (distribution by cascade of gears, injection, different openwork of camshafts and another ignition). Also the bike is more demanding with the rider, rough and with worse milk than nuetra FireStorm. Ours she is more comfortable and multipurpose, nobler and it pardons the errors to you.

There you go, all clear now :?

Its a great bike, very simular to the VTR, except it has a lovely long first gear :lol:

I think the handling is great, feels almost like 600 weight, and if you add some Micron Cans it sounds the muts more than the VTR :wink:

Have also fitted a powercommander which has made the low down superb, they bike also makes a lovely riding noise, think its the injectors.

Insurance is £50 more per year but I have 5 years ncb's :wink: and it has a £400 alarm fitted, the bike has done just 2300 miles and is as new, the guy paid £6500 for it less than a year ago, I cant tell you what I paid for it 8O

Give me an email jason@hymed.co.uk if you want to know anymore :lol:

Tasty. Honda made a really nice looking bike there but what was going through their minds when they came to the tail light? Looks like it was found in the old cb parts bin.
