Thanks for the help guys managed to fix it this morning. I had checked the placement on all the tank pipes but the vacuum pipe was a bit gunky and once removed wiped and put back in place and fastened on properly its running right as rain!

I can now stop worrying about CCTs!

Cheers,

I checked fuel lines and hoses on tank along with the fuel tap and it all seemed ok
I really appreciate the help

any other ideas?

when i say it wouldnt rev it was unreluctant to rev. it would but would not rev properly or cleanly and backfired alot! and sounded as if it was only running on one cyl or just poorly as both exhausts were still getting hot

Hi fellas, Did the CCTs today. it all seemed to go well and everything seemed fine (i followed the instructions with the tensioners so you dont remove the front cover) however me and my Uncle followed it exactly and it seemed fine. Rebuilt the bike and started it up and it started up fine and revved...

Saw a yellow VTR heading through Cuddington as if they had come from JnS today (01/03/2014) I was heading the other way! sadly i was in the car as the missus wouldnt get on the bike -_-

i might be out that way again monday (24/02) but not sure yet!

weheeyy thats me! I was out on a ride out with my friend on his yellow RS4 125! (soon to be a z800 for him!)

it might of been £80 in total but i assumed it was each! The guy who quoted that was 'Macclesfield Motorcycles' i was on a ride out so just popped in to ask! seemed a nice enough guy who seemed to know his stuff! said he had done them on a storm before but not in a few years...spoke to my uncle toni...

If all things go to plan I will be there

Sorry for the late reply :) been busy riding! did the cat and fiddle in the dark last night which was interesting :p As for the CCT's iv spoken to a few people (one guy near me says he will only charge £60-£80 per tensioner! which isnt bad...also spoken to my uncle who is gonna have a look and see i...

Time has come to start shopping for CCTs and I am still not sure whether to do this in my garage with my uncle (im relatively good home mechanic at most things but I am not used to working inside engines. If i were to get a mechanic or shop to do it how much can I expect it to cost in labour? I know...

found these too which state no mods necessary for fitting?

I think this is the right section to ask this...wasn't sure between this or pimp ride section! Just wondering if anyone has used these crash bobbins on the 'Storms and if they rate them? http://www.bs-motoparts.com/en/Default.aspx?TY=2&ST=1&IT=1441&currency=GBP&utm_source=Google-Prod...

bike and the mods look great man!

Do you think if the bars would of been flatter/or arched back risers then you wouldn't of had to trim the fairings?

Either way bike looks smart! Wide bars surprisingly suit the 'storm!

Keep up the good work!

hehe nice try magnum! the petrol bill alone to suffolk and back on the 'Storm is enough to buy myself some stock cans for MOT!
