Finally got my Storm

Post by Bullyboydave »

Finally got a Firestorm after years of il4's and I absolutely love it,the sound the power delivery and most of all the fantastic engine braking. Got a 2000 in blue with Dyno Stage 1 , K&n , white power shock rear and fronts redone, dropped at front for steering quicker and a gorgeous set of Yoshi RS3's. The curve on the Dyno chart is smooth as, except a small drop at 5500 rpm, think this is normal though. These bikes are so under estimated,and would convert a lot of riders to V's if they had just one ride.Anyway I'm Happy and after riding the buzzing il4's for so long wish I'd got a Storm earlier. Hello to you all and ride safe. Bully

Normal for a K&N :roll:

Welcome to the forum sounds like you have a very nice bike there with most things upgraded already. Those Yoshi's will sound nice on a Storm. :biggrin

I like the Blue , my last bike was pink and purple and a Zx10 based street fighter, :wtf: , That's what happens when you trust a Scooter boy to spray your bike :biggrin lol.
