I bought a Storm !!

Bkp · 04-05-2017, 09:43 PM

OK guys, It's a done deal.
I sold the CBR600RR and bought a Blue Storm.

I was talking with Superiorpowersports about a Red Brozz they have in stock for $1939.00 delivered, ready to ride. But I found a good deal on a Blue Storm for $1780.00 out the door,ready to ride with tax, title and license here in Houston.

If any Houston people are looking for a Storm or a Hawk go see the guys at:
TEXAS POWER SPORTS
7302 HARWIN DRIVE #108
HOUSTON, TX 77036

I'm not affiliated with them nor do I know them, just telling you where you can get a bike ready to ride with tax title and license included.

They have one red and one black Storm left.
They also have one Black Hawk.
The Hawk was $1580.00 or so I can't remember the exact price.
They were putting together a Magician, so I'm sure they are importing more bikes.

Anyway, here is the Storm I bought..

And this was my CBR.

Both very nice bikes. I bet you'll love the storm. Thanks for the photos.

Why in the world would you go from that CBR to a Storm?

That seems crazy to me. Please explain.

Hahaha, everybody thinks I'm nuts.

But truthfully, I wasn't riding it. it was a 2013 I bought new in 2014 and I only put 6100 miles on it. I didn't have anyone to ride with and it got boring.

It was my fourth crotch rocket over the years, but this time it wasn't the same.
Maybe I'm getting old lol.

It was a nice bike, and fast !!! Man, she was fast !

the older you get the less fast you desire.

Gotta love this !!

It looks awesome and I completely get the change of pace. I would highly recommend going over the bike front to rear and double checking any work they did to prep the bike. Just as a precaution.

Nice bike!

I get it.

I barely ride my Bandit 1200 S and am looking forward to a smaller, lighter bike.

Have fun, man.

Yep. I love the Vic but rarely jump on it anymore. Just when I need my shoulders pulled out of sockets once in a while.
