I do have a corbin for my 1996 1000F that I used once. Didn't care for it too much myself.

Welcome to the forum guys!

I moved from NY to TX and left my cane in NY. Now I want it back! I haven't seen any '90 hurricane in San Antonio, TX. Mine needs work but def worth bringing it back to life!

You'll enjoy yours! There's lot of good info in this forum!

Hi Guys
Andrew from Townsville, Queensland Australia.
Taken me 20 years to get around to buying what I call a toy at my age.
Found an 87 Hurricane with 7,500 miles. Needs minor tidy up. Hoping to get it pristine real soon.
Look forward to strolling through past post and pics.

Hi
It is for 30 years. Runs sweet too. When I find someone suitable will get it looked over.
Bought it sight unseen and not disappointed.
Don't seem to be able to add much at the moment. Says my account might not be activated yet.
As soon as I know how will put some pics up.

I am in Wynyard, and you need a few posts before you can upload pics, site does this to stop non members selling junk, I think.
I used to get to Townsville a bit when I lived in Mt Isa, not much in the way of good twisty roads where you are now.

Hi
You are probably right about Townsville, however I have had a trip to Atherton Tablelands in a car and think that would be a good place to cruise. Will check that out in winter. Bit hot this time of the year.
The east coast of Tassie was my goto place for a decent ride.The last bike I had in Tassie was a Red over Black '87 CBR1000. This is probably why I gravitated to the Hurricane.
It was bought over from the states some years back but when the owner transferred back he decided on leaving it in Aus.

I was a Loss Assessor in Tassie and used to travel the state.
Would have gone to Wynyard a few times. My default evening stopover was the Lighthouse in Ulverstone.

Default Just joined saying hello.

Hello all, my name is Shawn. Currently reside in Maryland (USA). I have an 87 1000f that ive had for a little more than a year. im doing my best to restore her. With even E-Bay parts getting limited and exspensive i know it will be a task but, i think it will be more than worth it. Pics will be uploaded soon. Which thread should they go in? Im new to the forum thing.
