Get the regulator rectifier changed for a finned version and you will have the two biggest issues of the firestorm sorted. Just thought i would mention it... took the panels off today to start paint prep and found a nice sized finned regulator rectifier fitted, so something i don't have to worry ab...

Heya.. not far away then.. where abouts are you?

Where abouts are you in the world, bud? I'm in Cardiff mate. Between busy and bad back still bugging me haven't had much time for the bike but did finally make a start late afternoon today.. Pulled off the panels and had a good look around. I knew that there had been a repair on the tank because wh...

Hey and welcome

Yea, seen the white one... looks nice. At the moment for me it's between white - Audi Abyss white, just about the brightest white about right now, black - nice honda pearl colour I know of which has a red/purple fleck in it, yellow - I like the BMW(car) Dakar yellow and at the mo I have a drop of a ...

I'm going to dig a bit deeper today and tomorrow... will get sanding and see what else is under the paint. I'm not too worried about her though... bike runs fine and straight, no wobbles if I take my hands off the bars etc have had one decent ride on her which was a nice blast down the M4 to M&P...

Heya & welcome, new here myself and new to the Firestorm

Hello from one newcomer to another

I may be interested in a few small bits.. Just about to do some work on my own bike and have my eye on some parts on ebay I need, only trouble is i'm gonna need them quite soon so it will depend on how long it is before you will be getting bike back. What im after - Both inner fairing panels (front ...

Dog looks sad... and yet looked so happy in the first picture

Yea.. somehow think I probably will find a few other hidden repairs. I have a high spot on the fuel tank to the right of the fuel cap so know there is something wrong there. Side fairings seem pretty good, tail piece has a lug snapped off underneath so it's a bit wibberly wobberly. Bike rides nice b...

Haven't done the stop mod yet. Plagued with back trouble at the moment so I just quickly swapped the cct's out for new so the bike can be used if needed. Got other work I have to do as well at the mo, in middle of repairing & repainting a friends old vfr750 and struggling to do that at mo with b...

Just realised my first post here wasnt quite true.. had taken indicators and f/mudguard off bike before pic was taken. Few weeks ago was changing front tyre, while removing wheel nudged the mudguard and it split about 3 inches on the one side. Once rubbed it down I found it had been patched up with ...

Haven't actually done anything to my bike as of yet.. so here's a pic before I start pulling her about. Gonna give her a quick spruce up for this summer and then if all is well with the bike will do a proper job in the winter for next summer. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0803/shauned/DSC_05131....
