yipee i finally got the sp1 iv'e been so wantonly drooling over , and i must say it is a different animal to the storm . i will be posting some piccys shortly . and just to say a quick belated thanks for pete.l s advice on the sp 1 .
im just curious... i personaly dont like the " race " bike look or feel.. and think the storm is the closeset i have ever and will be to a race bike style..
well chuxsta mate so far ive noticed theres a lot of smooth even power especially mid range , compared to a storm with remus cans and stage 1 jetting . there seems to be a lot less lag on the throttle . suspension wise, at the front end the storm felt very leggy especially hard into cornering . on the sp1 i've already gained confidence in the front end and the brakes are keener . the rear end is also a lot surer than the storm . it doesn't seem to want to tram line as much sounds different and best of all no dreaded cct's to bother with
Yaaay!
Another one enters the fold
Personally I think the best bit is it never stalls. It took me ages to drop the habit of covering the clutch in slow bends and traffic lights are a breeze. You can sit there and scratch your butt with your throttle hand and know the engine isn't going to go Pop! and stop just before the light turns yellow...er! green I mean

My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal
