FYI main weak points with Firestorms are reg/rectifier, common with a lot of Hondas, and cam chain tensioners. And of course extreme thirst and poor tank range.

I'm trying to save a bit to get another one. I rode an early Sprint, around 2000 model IIRC & it felt like a tractor compared to my Honda. Stonking brakes mind.
