Always wanted to ride a sportster! Not own one tho, i dont get the harley thing lol. Jus called up the place i normally go to, dyno run 20 quid so thats a good starting point To be honest with you niether did I, then I started wanting one, and when I bought one I did think WTF have I done, but I lo...

Can I suggest.

The long way round, or the long way down.


I'll get my coat.

When you start the bike up, you get a spitting in the air box, apparently there is a K&N air filter fitted, the seller said this is why, knowing better I feel its more the fact that the carbs probably have been rejeted and the fact the owner has put the standered cans back on is making it spit b...

If we ever meet up and im on the Sportster i'll let you have a go and your never feel your VTR1000 Firestorm is underpowered ever again :lol: Seriously theres a tuner/tester near southend, he moved from Chigwell, hes really good and doesnt charge the earth, I'll try and find him. Address: Dynospeed ...

mine is loud, till I pull the clutch in.

I like the old biker films, hells angels on wheels etc, their so bad, their good.

One of my mates had a TL, he loved it, but the build quality and reliability made him sell it.

Every time I saw him he was like " its off the road again ".

I remember the gear box blew on it atleast once.

Been checking over the bike.

Its got

smart water, Datatag and a datatoll alarm.

Previous owners paranoid.

And I discovered a scottoiler, I get frustrated with them but i'll use it untill it annoys me enough to rip it out.

I'll be there, wanna fit these Manual CCTs, not done it on a bike before so gonna need a little guidance if I get into trouble.

Would it be a good idea to get some photos to add to the fitting guide on here, to help people who would do it at home?.

just been out for a couple of hours with a mate of mine can you all tell me why i shouldnt go and buy a cbr600rr i love my vtr but the rr sounds and looks great. anything less than a near ltr bike and it would make you less of a man. I like the way you said anything less than near, rather than anyt...

That and yellow are my favourite Storm colours.

Better to let your confidence grow as you ride more, better to take it slowly than a slow drive to the cemetry.

Wow, you get bored quickly, or change your mind a lot :lol: How long have you been riding to rack up that lot? The problem is with Japanesse bikes I do get bored of them quickly, I don't know why. The only bikes I regreted partying with are this CBR600 and VTR1000 Firestorm ( previous one ). The Tr...

Ha Ha They really are a strange bunch at JoR aren't they. Family run & they all work there. The dad is John who started off in pushbikes, hence the shop name. The real weird one is the son Mike, tall skinny bloke, he used to do a lot of grass track racing until one big off too many left him a b...

Just out of curiosity what bike have people owned. Heres a list of mine. This is in order of ownership and yes theres some dupes. Yamaha YB100 ( my first bike, held together by family contributions, shoe laces and Hope ) Honda H100s ( my wifes liscence ran out and I had it given to me if I sold the ...
