Hi All, I'm probably going on the Sunday, never been to one before. What kind of bargains are there to be had? I'm thinking of a belly pan from Skidmark and some spares from Harris, (both are there apparrently). My mates are after some tyres. So is it worth taking the van? ;-) (to bring the 1198S ho...

Nice thread! I've only had 3 bikes. Started with a BMW R1150GS, which I loved. Sold that when changed jobs and fancied some revs. Got a Kwak ZX7R.... revs are over-rated, seemed like I was always changing gear, especially when I was on the track. That track day I tried a firestorm, which I crashed. ...

I was thinking of going to this too... good idea

That's super. They might be more expensive, but I'd probably not use most of those 350 bolts.

I will get all excited look at this website...:-) Shiney things.... hmmmmm

Hi All, With two Firestorms, (track and road), I'm forever searching for bolts to fit the bike for various emergency track repairs:-) I've seen these on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/STAINLESS-ALLEN-BOLTS-350-pack-HONDA-VTR-FIRESTORM-1000_W0QQitemZ350124779549QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?has...

Yes it is there, it's under V-Twin, not Honda.

If you mean the rubber coated part that bolts to the end of the lever then i have a spare one. yeah thats the bit - how much do you want? I tried Harris but the customer service sucks - because I didn'have the code or the exact name as it was on their system they didn't care! My bike had them but m...

and been in a car i am afraid it will move to the next stage of twating some one.. at least on my bike i can vent my anger and leave before they piss me off any more. And when you are on a bike people think you are hard! I used to think I was Judge Dread on my GS. "I am the Law!" I used t...

Sorry, sounds like a very similar idea to the trumpets, but with this system it allows flexibility to alter the air input using a knob. Testimonials seem impressive.

Any experience?

I was browsing on the superhawk forum and found this as a performance modification:

about 150USD. Anyone tried one of these?

The bolt bears onto a tensioning plate so not a direct contact with the cam chain as such; just onto this plate.
See the front CCT plate here:-

Hope that helps put your mind at ease!!!

Well that's a bloody good idea then! ;-)

I've obviously seen the CCT issue, and I understand that there is a spring that constantly pushes on to the cam belt to maintain tension. Wouldn't the head of that bolt wear quickly? Or does it actually push onto something that pushes on the the belt? All this talk makes me weary of the swines. I ha...

I've got some high temperature silicone sealant that I used for the rocker cover gasket. That'll probably do it! Thanks for the advice.

Mmmm, not bad at all! Thanks for posting them. Me thinks two are in order for Christmas!
