I bought it for £1800 (2000 zx6r, 13k miles on the clock - you HAVE to love ebay )

I wanted £2200 for it in winter, but that'll rise another £300 minimum when spring/summer comes. And at £2500, it'd still be cheap!

The zx feels like much more of a whale than the storm, the storm is much more manageable, well at least when pushing it around.

The fairings do stick out like a sore thumb on the zx hence the whale comments.

Still, both great bikes in their own ways of course zxman, I won't challenge the zx6r's greatness

Best thing about storms ar the ease of the front wheel lifting. Good wheelie machine. Mates got an orange one. I just dont seem to fit on hondas, even the pans feel uncomfy to me...kwak man through and through
