MH is odd A120 form Stort if going towards A10 for Baldock - A507 - nice road.

More than welcome. If you need a hand just holler, any excuse to get the bike out !!

Cheers Marty, I did !! Did over a tank of juice. Went through the lanes from High Beech, Ongar, Hatfield Broad Oak, Takeley, Stortford, Buntingford, A507 to Baldock for a Vanilla Milkshake ( fat b8stard ), then the return trip. As enjoyable on a £ 1500 quid storm as any other bike I've owned. Luvvl...

Its not under the air filter. Look at the top of the engine ( cam cover ) behind the airbox and in front of the seat.

Much Hadham......Cant place it, but definately seen it somewhere before lol.

Thanks for that info. I have dot4 fluid... So it is the same fluid for clutch and break .. ? Take it the spark plugs are under the base of the air-filter container - can't see how to get that orft :( One is under the tank ( Rear one that is ).To find the front plug,if you look at the front of the e...

.....I'm going out on my bike, baldrocks to the other things I should do instead.

Cup of tea and a Bacon roll at the tea hut at High Beach, Epping forest.

Riding a Red T Reg storm.

If anyone fancies a blat, or just a coffee...........

+ 1 on that last comment.

3 oclock outside a set of school gates, and you've asked for it. 2 am on the M11, lets face it, you're only gonna kill yourself, and thats unlikely, seeing as you can see 2 miles in front of you.

Well done to those coppers

I'm turning the engine over manually Anti clockwise, the camchain seems slack and rises just above the teeth of the cams. Does that make any sense? By the way firing the TDC? Yes, it makes sense if you have removed the old cct, or it's failed completely. Just get the new manuals in and reset the ca...

I rode to work to, via...er...the Rotherhithe Tunnel !!

Yes, I know its an easy job. Maybe I'll sling the old one somewhere easy to reach in the unlikely event i'll need it. My mates failed on the way to the Ring, was a right pain. Ta.

Here's a question that's probably been asked already... If your bike shows symptoms of reg/rec failure, is the battery already likely to be buggered? I was going to get a replacement and just keep it to hand, only fitting if needed. My last storm never gave me and trouble in this dept, in 4 years an...

You're meant to stop worrying when you fit manuals, not the other way round...! I wasn't worried when I had the originals in. My last storm did 37000 before I needed to change them, even then it didnt go pop, just noticed a rattle. But it was a while back and cant remember what to listen for now. P...

After 4 years on a storm I bought one of those.

Traded it after under a year. Great, fabulous, wonderful bike. No character though.

If they've been lacquered over then I'm afraid it's start all over again,If you can't live with it as it is, send it, or take to SprayBay in Grimsby, these guys really know what they're doing, and they wont rip you off :thumbup: http://i820.photobucket.com/albums/zz124/cheekykev/IMG_3475-1.jpg I ha...

Is anyone else thinking that being in London during the Olympics, and trying to get around, is gonna be a royal pain in the rear.

Thinking of getting the f**k outta here....Bike trip to Scotland sounds appealling !!
