Them Storms are hot, I'm thinkin' I NEED one.

Been debating on getting a new R3, Not that I'd ever let loose of the Triclops,
but dang them new Storm GT's are lookin good.
Anybody got one yet? Wonder how they compare to the 140 Lb of Torque we have now?
180 is better than 140, 2500 is better than 2300, extra gear too....
I'm thinkin one might be in my future....

Any reviews? Personal experiences?

Let me know cause $25K is alot to drop if it ain't money well spent.

Hi, from what I've found out, the Storm is spec wise the same as the TFC. The only two differences are the Storm is totally black, looks Fantastic & the is they're only making 1000 of them. Like the TFC only 750 made worldwide. If I hadn't bought the TFC I would 100% buy the Storm. Awesome bike.

Forgot to say, the Storm doesn't have the quick shift. I do enjoy it on the TFC.

Storm has lighter wheels, but I prefer the GT wheels for looks. Just my opinion.

All R3's are great. I chose my R3 R Storm based on unique looks, lighter and cool looking wheels, and more power. Admittedly, my adult children stated that in their opinion the Storm was the one to go for, and was the final factor in my choice. Peer pressure is real!

Why have you had 3 of the 2.5s in just 5 years?
Were there problems?

No, i normally get a new bike every year. Since I can't afford to get rid of the wife, i instead swap bikes...lololololol
