have a chat with a member called carmanbikes, he recently finish building his storm, same as yourself, he started out with several boxes of parts, he did a fantastic job, you won't be able to pm him until you reach 50 posts, but I can ask him to contact you if you like.
welcome to the forum btw..... :wave:
and good luck with the giant jigsaw puzzle, start a thread in the pimp your ride section so we can follow and advise you, we will also take the piss and condemn your choice of colour..... :lol:

Welcome to the forum Skids. Nice little project you have there. Will you be customizing things on the rebuild or keeping as standard. Any pics required then shout out. Pay particular attention to the running of the wiring loom.

Here's a link for engine mounting tightening sequence

Thanks to you all for making me welcome....!

I am dyslexic ... So any pointers to information I'm likely to need would be great... Reading through pages of text.... Takes me to long.... I can follow pictures.... :-(

Will have to get someone to show me how to put the on going pictures up..

Please tell me if I'm writing stuff in the wrong place...
