Hi Wezrvf,
Your user name was a bit of a give away there. Some one else on here has gone the opposite way from a Storm to a Honda 400, have a look at this:-

Hiya Wez
...21...! Surely far too young to be considered eligible to ride a 'Storm -- the thinking pensioners' alternative to a bus pass these things ya' know! :lol:

I'm also a newbie, got meself a (rare?) orange storm at the start of April, and done about 1,500 miles so far. Just to echo what Kaz said, I think when it's time the CCT will go -- my bike has just reached 30,000 miles and to the best of my knowledge is on the original items -- not sure worrying about it helps...

...Mind you my bike ain't quiet, and since I started reading some of the horror stories on this site, I have taken to riding with my left hand constantly poised over the clutch, ready to make a vain attempt to pull the lever when the inevitable catastrophic failure occurs 8O ..!

Welcome to our world!
little wheels at the front...

Hey guys, well went out on it today for the first time and i loved every secand of it, i am in love with it i think, i ordered a pair or crash protectors for it, i might need them with my past record but it pulls really hard in every gear which i was a bit surprised at but it was my first time on a twin so have to get use to it but for now ten out of ten from me!!!!
Cheers guys

The difference between (most) Honda dealers and this forum, is that they're in it for the money. We're in it for... well, who knows? But you're likely to get advice, hassled and probably lots more.

One thing you will get, though, is agreement that yellow is not just faster, but fastest. If any of you others disagree, cum ear & I'll show ya... :wink:

Yellow may be percieved as the fastest
but BLACK is the
COOLEST...........

I myself love the yellow ones and often admire them in my MIRRORS.
