Welcome to the site Bob!

We have at least one member with over 100k miles on his. Give us a mechanical report on the "winter beater". How's it held up?

Welcome to the board. Nice hawks! I'm curious about that belly pan as well....

My 99 Storm is up over 100,000 km and still purrs like a kitten (fires right up every time and burns no oil)...So far so good....

i had to make the pic small to post on here, don't know if anyone can blow it up to see the bellypan better, it comes up over the edge of the clutch case & alternator case,ive searched the web for months to find one like it

Now that you mention it, I do recall seeing one for sale on eBay a while back, can't remember where it was from though... Have you look at Thurn out of Germany?

ive got a german (thurn) one on the yellow storm now, its fibreglass & much smaller than the carbon one, theres no mounting brackets on the carbon one, it bolts to original front mounts,rhs foot peg/exhaust mount & side stand mount, some lads over here have moriwaki copy's & they have big metal mount brackets that bolt to sump & look totaly different, im just curious

VTRbob

ill take some better pic's of just the bellypan when it stops raining

Hi Bob,

Does this look like yours? Obviously this one is not in carbon fibre!
