Ian Dont know about Penske or white power but Ive got Ohlins on my bike, rear unit and fork springs and I cant fault it. It gives much more feedback than standard and is fully adjustable for just about anything most riders are likely to want. Ive had a few bikes with flash sussys and my experience h...

Is that 118 bhp at the rear wheel, Ive got the same set up full Ackrapovic, Dyno jet and K&N filter with the addition of a super chips unit but my 99 storm still only makes 110 ish at the rear wheel.

check that the cable which runs from the speed sensor at the back of the engine hasnt been disconnected. remove the saddle and near to the rear of the petrol tank on the right side just in front of the battery you will find a load of cables with a series of block connectors. The speedo cable has abo...

Tyrant, Glad it worked out. :D Be a bit carefull if your going to drop it any more :? . Ive found 5mm to be more than enough and like you was really pleased with the result. Any more and you can trade off cornering for stability in a straight line. especially getting on the gas out of a bend you end...

Hi Tyrant. I dropped the front 5mm which worked well. I found it really improved the ride on track and road but a guy called Roger who runs a company called Revolution has quite a few entries on the MCN website for storms and he seems to dissaprove of this mod. .As I say it worked for me. My current...

I did it to my last storm which was pretty much standard. The result was a much better turn in without it becoming unstable. I rode the bike fairly quick on road and on track days with no probs

A minor point but worth considering . Ive got Harris rear sets which are great :D but the carbon heal guard on the gear lever sides seems very bendy :? . The problem being that when on a track day or moving around the bike my left heel presses against the guard and it bends into the rear hugger. Thi...
