Just a hello from Glasgow Scotland
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi to all just thought i would say hello to all you fellow firestorm / superhawk riders.Had this bike since december 08 got it after years of 4,s.What a tool i think twins really suit my riding style fast and lazy:D The noise off this thing is fantastic.Have done no mods to it yet but has a few.Blade front end,yoke conversion,white power shock,scorpion titanium cans,gilles rear sets,rizoma alloy bar grips,conti road attack tyres (which i might add are shit hot wet or dry),undertray all this for peanuts £2000 what a bargain.Anyway keep up the great work with the site lads and girls and stay safe on the road.Remember it,s not how fast you go it,s how safe you go fast.Mark....SCOTLAND THE BRAVE

JMC?

Kickass Bird Bro! Love the color and the mods. You UK guys got some cool colors that you don't see on this side of the pond! Don't mind me sounding stupid, but what bike is a "blade?"

L8RGYZ 04-22-2009 06:28 PM

Fireblade is what Honda calls the CBR series bikes 900cc & up in Europe and many other parts of the world.

Swinger is by an English co called mechamex they do a lot of top quality alloy/cnc parts for most bikes as far as i am aware this was a special order one as the standard one they make for the storm/superhawk has top bracing and standard chain adjusters and not consentric like you mentioned.By the way i see you are running contis what you think of them i think they are brilliant.Speak to you later bud....Mark...
