So does mine and cost around the same. Sounds like an oppertunity to figure out these beasties together buddy. I'm just up the road so drop me a PM anytime you want to head out for a ride.

That goes for anyone else in the area. Would be nice to have a stream of thunder heading up the road.

Sure thing! :thumbup:

Mine isn't sounding much like "rolling thunder" at the moment as it's still got stock cans fitted! :(

Being a bit skint at the mo I have been thinking of modifying them to make them sound better! I have seen some on youtube and they sound sweet! :)

Just do some bargain hunting fella - I got a Blueflame "Tri Zoid" on my old 7R (RIP) - that was accident damaged, chopped 2" off it - instant stubby!

Having said that - when I had a few quid, I did get a pair of stubbies on 'Stormy - 105dB - oow yeah!

Same. apparently you can de baffle them but its a brutal operation and the bike will need rejetted or something. I'd love to get some decent cans on but a neighbour reckon it sounds amazing the way it is! :D

I de-baffled mine. No re-jetting required. If you wanna hear then, could meet up at portsdown hill or something?

Would be up for that. I was at Loomies last night bud. Great ride up to Loomies along the A32 then along the A272 to the big roundabout and down the boring A3(m) home.

Sounds great to me! :thumbup:

unfortunately my storm is in bits at the moment receiving some much needed TLC! :(

When it's back on the road it's going to need a ride out!! :Beer1:
