Yo !

Post by stevegringo »

Hi everyone ! Steve's the name , thanks for the add .

Just returned to the 'Dark side ' after 12 years of inline four abuse . Don't know why it's taken me so long to return cos I love my Storm and I'm only 3 days in !
I'm based in the west mids atm but originate from the North West !

This is the second VTR that I've owned (the first one I trashed after only 3 months of ownership :oops: ) and I bought a cheap hack ( TDM850 ) to get me to work and back !
That was over 12 years ago and I've had 4 Bandits since then ...stumbled across this yellow storm on ebay last week and thought .." wow that's a nice one ! placed a random bid on her not thinking I'd be successful and 3 days later she's mine ! :D

Steve.

Thanks for the warm welcome peeps !

I'm close to Dudley in the "Black country " and originally from Cheshire about 10 miles from the Cat and Fiddle road !

Those from the West Mids ...do you have a regular meet ?

As for mods ...it's got high level Blue flame cans on already , Hugger , and LED tail light with built in indicators ...not sure what else it needs ..any suggestions ? Sensible ones if poss ! :lol:

Get some proper rear indicators for MOT time as built in ones are a fail.
