Wondering what happened to my old bike - Toowoomba

[brownie586]

Hi everyone,

A few years back I sold my firestorm to a guy in Toowoomba.

At the time I was living in Townsville, and they guy i sold it to was with the military down here, i'm pretty sure he had it brought down on a RAAF plane.

The bike was a red firestorm, i think it was 2003. If i can figure out what the plates were I'll post it. Was standard besides staintune high rises and a ventura rack.

If this is any of you I'd love to hear from you and find out what happened to the bike, I really did love that bike, and very quickly regretted the sale bitterly.

Cheers!

Maybe he was based at Amberley. Its a decent commute from Toowoomba though.

There are Defence personel based in Toowoomba. Can't remember if he was RAAF specifically.

I actually thought i posted the rego but might have not hit send, else my post got deleted??

Actually a point of interest is the stainless number plate holder with firestorm laser etched into it. That was a one of a local place made for me as a test to see if they could market it.

I had that one and I think I have one more floating around still but it was a trial that didn't turn out so good.

Anyone know this bike!?

Come to think of it he most likely was based at Oakey.
A red one with stainies could be a needle in a haystack man, you never know though.
A friend of mine bought one of ebay from interstate that he was sure was his old one. It was a red too but had devil pipes which weren't that common. Now he's not so sure that it is the same one lol.

Yeah i'm hoping the guy who bought it is on here, or that someone recognises the stainless number plate surround, cause I know it's the only one that's on a bike, I have the other at home still.

Unfortunately it's not registered anymore with that plate according to the transport website so i'm guessing it's written off or gone interstate.
