Hi Everyone,
Just got my Firestorm and loving it! Fitted a tinted double bubble and have ordered some CCT's from Honda. Need to get the seat shaved by a trimmer as find it a little tall. Now can't decide which way to go with the exhaust.....Hi level or SP1 style? Here's a pic of my little beauty.

Thanks for the welcome guys. I like the sound of the oval cans it already has on so looking to get some link pipes that will kick them up ala SP1's any advice? The reason I went new auto CCT's are A easier to fit and B if they fail I would chase Honda for consequential damage? I'm not to impressed with the double bubble screen so am having my original screen tinted and will put back on when its done. Prefer the sleeker look.
But early days and I'm sure there are many mods I will end up doing.

Welcome. Nice looking bike. How much did the new CCTs cost you?

New CCt's & gskts just over £100 inc vat.

Never noticed the sticker on the wheel until I got it home and it was a coincidence it was level when I parked up and took the pic.

Welcome aboard buddy

I doubt you will get anything if the ccts fail

Do the stopper mod, or fit manuals

There is a huge amount of knowledge been gathered by the guys on this site

Non of that knowledge recommends fitting new Honda ccts buddy

Its up to you though, and I hope it works out

Put up your location and there maybe someone local that can help
