Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Blade forks reduce the fork limits, and also the turning circle. It takes a bit of getting used to. I used to allow the bike to drop into the inside of a turn (at slower speeds) then pick it up again by adding throttle. Balance the two and it looks easy. However- Storms are known to stall (especiall...

You'll just have to jet it the old-fashioned way, start rich and gradually get leaner as the engine feels keener, with plug chops after each run.
