LOL! Geez, I wish I was at that meet-up... All I can say is there's nothing quite like the phrase, "sh1t you ride good for a sheila", when combined with a look of complete & utter awe from an Aussie bloke, God love'm.
If you ate yourself would you become twice as big or simply disappear?

Even if the storm was red in the first place you are still looking at a couple of hundred for all the colour coding of bits, as well as the bellypan. Then there are the stickers and all the labour. There was an SP-1 with 17000 miles on it for sale on autotrader for £3500!! Sell the storm privately for £2750 in the summer, add £750 = SP-1.

That said you can then look forward to more insurance (ok a lot more!), same range as a storm but an 18 litre tank emptying itself very quickly and a very sore butt! Wouldn't go back tho' :wink:

Why did he have to go and ruin a perfectly good replica by putting the SP-1 sticker on the back... he nearly got away with it.... :lol:

I agree with pmcq
The bike looks really good untill you see the SP1 sticker then it just make me think "Poor Wanna be"
