Picked it up yesterday :-)

Post by TravisZack »

In a van unfortunately, as it was SORN and needs putting back on the road, but here it is...waiting...

My '03 FireStorm :D

Only mods are a carbon hugger, powerbronze double bubble and some loud pipes. Needs the manual CCT's (which I will of course be doing ASAP) and a different Reg/Rec, but otherwise, 16k miles, fantastic condition, I'm a happy man and can't wait to get out on it.

That's the later bike so should have the finned R/R fitted which are more reliable than the early ones.
Nice bike in the best colour if you want my unbiased opinion!!! :thumbup:

Very nice mate, good find.

Your sidestand's leaking oil.

Fresh oil, though.

Enjoy!
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Cheers all! Good to know about the Reg/Rec, I had read in some places that the later ones were fine but wasn't sure.

I think a shop around on various protection bits and bobs will be the first few purchases.
