I have been trying to get some cash together to get the suspension set up properly, turns out I have actually put a fair bit aside. So I have decide to sell the bike and get an Aprilia RSVR, it hasn't been an easy decision as I love the bike but have wanted an RSV for a while. I can't afford to keep the storm as we'll unfortunately as I need it to make up the difference for an RSVR :|

I got a replacement front mud guard and gonna need to paint it gloss black. Will paint the belly pan and rear hugged gloss black too. Once all done will post up in the sales and wants.


New pics of the painted plastics....

I like the black hanger mate, the whole bike looks good, good luck with the sale, I will say this tho, your bike is worth a lot more in parts, it would be a shame to break the bike up tho... :(

Cheers guys I am loving the bike and every time I do a little to it I like it even more as it is getting closer to where I want to be with it cosmetically and mechanically. Over the last year my shift work and family have just got in the way and not been able to spend as much time on the bike as I would of liked :(

AgentP I thought about breaking her up but I would rather sell her as she is so some one lease can carry on where I left off as it would be a real shame to part out. :eek2

Looking good. Think I may even have a go at that myself. My pipes also have the mounting lugs on the pegs so they will have to go.

White is the fastest color so it would be in his favor to sway towards that side of the spectrum :thumbup:
