Noob in Hants, sans 'Storm.

Hi,
Info hunting brought me here to learn the fundamentals of VTR ownership and I have already learned so much;
Teal? NO!
Expect to get all elbows deep and generally James Herriot on whatever I buy for reg/rec and CCT purposes ASAP ( as soon as purchased ).
How or spot a 19l tank.
Really, don't go teal!
Hopefully all this, and as yet unlearned learnings, will lead to an imminent acquisition of a tidy, standard teal-fre bike just in time for my mid life crisis.
Cheers,
Stewart.

Good man Stewart you have grasped many of the basics of Storm world. Now repeat after me "Red, Black, Yellow - Gay, Blue is the one true colour for which the Lord God (or whoever you may believe in!) made this good clean Earth!

Last bike was yellow so probly skip that for the change. 19l is a must though - had a Bros 650 many moons ago and that sucked to commute on as I had to fuel up every other day = done with small tanks.
