Not 100% sure but i think theres some sort of service manual at the http://www.vtr1000.co.uk site. Worth a look

Cheers

Hey up Dynamite. At the front, the adjustments mentioned are referring to the area where the forks come through the top yolk. You'll see a rectangular shape with rounded edges that has a gold flathead screw in the middle. The rectangular thing is the fork preload and the gold screw is the rebound da...

I know theres a company who've advertised stuff on ebay that do a full set of white or luminous dials for £27.99. I'll see if i can find their address if anyones interested?

Just done

Rich Fitted my dynojet initially and with the advice of a few others managed to get a decent power curve, no flat spots and a healthy kick in the butt power hike. Then had the heads skimmed and gas flowed so got it set up on a rolling road. Now its putting out 118ish bhp!!!! Let me know if you need ...

Try and get to hear a set of the high level MIGS if you're after a set of cans.

I think they're classed as race cans however they're very quiet ones. Bit louder than road legal but not at all offensive. Look the muts as well.

They're all crap.

Get a little better when its got a few miles on it but still pretty shite. Saying that you want a smooth change you buy a suzuki!!

Helps to raise idle speed to about 1200 rpm and make sure chain is always correctly adjusted and lubed.

I'd agree Darryl.....nothing better than a 'Storm on open pipes :wink: We do have noise restrictions over here limiting us to 98dB i believe but most of the guys on this list will join me in saying you'll be pretty hard pushed to find a 'Storm without at least race cans.... We recently had a get tog...

I'm completely shocked.

Rest In Peace mate.

Deepest sympathies to Waynes family and to you Del you seemed to know him well.

I didn't think that was Del with the streetfighter either as he was 11supposed to be coming up with WayneM who didn't make it. It definately wasn't Daz as he was on his Single Sided Carbon Ducati Firestorm.....!!!!!!!!!!! and was testing out a few of the guys bikes with flat bars?????

Aye a good day.

Cheers boys.........got a little lost around Worcester after loosing the pack but good to meet a lot of you.

See you at the next one.

Try sending a private mail to Masu. Not sure exactly where he's based but its a lot closer to you than i am. You can find his e-mail/personal account by looking up the members of this website.

If you've got the newer model storm with the updated forks PB settings make quite a difference as the preload on these was better. On older models (97-01) i'd say the settings are better than Hondas suggested/standard and make the most of what there is to play with. I'd suggest using PB's settings a...

Hey up Mart. Don't know about the manual but Racetech's suggested settings are: Rear: preload position 2 of 7 (from bottom), rebound one turn from seated. Forks: Preload fourth groove from top (level with fork top), Rebound one turn from seated. These are standard settings but suggested are: Rear: p...

Pyramid plastics carbon one mate.

Fits great, looks good, retains original hose mounts and you can fit the original chainguard over the top of it.
