introduction
Hello everyone I figured I would introduce myself. My name is Chris and I live in southern California and after 6 years of not having a bike I finally broke down and found me a 1999 firestorm. I had a 97 superhawk back in 2002 time frame and just had to have another one. right now I am not completely sure what it has done to it other than the manual cct and two brothers exhaust. I just found a CBR 954 front end so hopefully will be getting some fun stuff going on soon.
I just wanted to tell you all that you have an awesome website and a lot of great info

Welcome.

How did you find a Canadian bike (FireStorm vs SuperHawk) in SoCal?

I guess from what i was told was the original owner brought it over from Europe and i got it from I believe the 2nd owner. One of the reasons I couldnt pass this one up.

Welcome!

Is the bike yellow with "gold" carbon fiber two brothers high mounts and did you buy it in Thousand Oaks/Newbury Park?

If so you got a sweet bike that came from Sweden by way of a guy named Rykk.

Some of the guys on here remind me of the two rc30 collectors that I know. They know where every one of the 300 rc's and 50 45's are and who has what VINs

Welcome, and congratulations on the bike! I think I had looked at that bike on Craigslist more than once around the time I picked mine up.
