Finally....

Been promising for years to get my Firestorm back on the road and finally I've at least started... Bought it new back in 2002, been off the road 8 or 9 years I guess.. Good news, new battery and finally got it running. All sorts of problems until I deleted the original Datatool system 3 alarm. Now i...

Re: Battery

Been using these for some time... Out last mottobatt, normal charger unlike the lithium. Good price higher CCA than a normal YTX.

Re: Not exactly new...

Not quite yet, as it's way to cold, but I'm going to get this beast back on the road this year. Just to hear the Two Brothers Racing exhaust again if nothing else.. I'll keep you updated on how it goes getting it running after 8 ish years. It's a Honda, it'll be fine, right? :lol:

Not exactly new...

Been a member for a few years....

Bought my Firestorm new back in 2002, haven't used it for maybe 7 years but this year was the year....

For various reasons it didn't happen but hopefully next year.

Great to see this forum is still active, might need some help getting it going........ :lol:

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

I haven't been around for a while so I'm gutted to hear of Benny's death while perusing the forum. Never met the guy but always enjoyed his posts and he was a legend here. I'm not surprised you gave him a good send off and looked after his family, I'm just pissed off I missed it. You all are awesome...

As Bazza said, no accidents

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

I SORN'ed it.

It became a commuting bike but not needed for that anymore. Hopefully I'll get it taxed/MOT'ed when the weather is better and taken out to remind me why I've always kept it.......

Hi, it's been a while. :wave:

Re: op storm bonny scotland

I'm definitely in if work allows. This is going to be hard to organize due to the distance for a lot of people but I have no doubt it will be well worth it :thumbup:
