Hi yes that was me, Malc, just picked it up. I was on this forum about 3 years ago and had a vtr then, I'm shure you were organising a come around and replace your cct and I had bought mine and was going to join you, but had marriage problems and such and ended up having to sell everything and start again, but I live in knowle and I'm remarried and just replaced my much missed storm, you will have to pop around for a cuppa and a look at the bike, it was great to jump back on one after a hard couple of years, but hey that's life and all good now, all the best, Malc. :D

I was on my pushbike at the time but I still find myself nodding or waving at motorbikes :lol:

Yes will have to pop round and have a look at it some time, looked & sounded good as it went past.

Hi Gents

Can I introduce myself as I'm also close to Knowle, just down the road in Balsall Common! Brought a storm in August and the front tensioner failed in 38, yes 38 miles after collecting from Evesham! I was very lucky the valves didn't hit the pistons, anyway Adam Erzen fitted some of ade's tensioners for me and it runs ok now. I cannot believe Honda continued with such a poor design.
Anyway look forward to hearing from you
