Hi everyone. another delighted owner here. Got a '98 Firestorm a month ago, done 2k miles now and love the bike.
Nice and clean, only done 14k miles. All stock except for braided hoses. Heres a pic.
It came with a dyno chart which shows 106bhp which I think is a bit more than usual. But it is a red one.
Plenty of power for me anyway, I only weigh 10stone.

Thanks for the welcome.
I'm on hols abroad for 2 weeks right now and can't wait to get back on it.
It was a bit noisy and clunky when I got it but it was just a stretched chain. It also has a juddery front brake so the next upgrade might have to be some wavy discs. New rubber first though, Bridgestone BT023's I think.
I'd like to try some touring, so I may be up for Operation Storm, just need to get some bags and a tent.
