Current bid 122 quid !! Most body bits will fit the 87/88 1000F.....or just fix it up......I would.

Nice idea, shipping cost to NZ would probably **** what is otherwise a very good buy. Good idea for someone in the Mother Country though.
Nice find Pete.

Looks a little bit worn for a bike with only 11k miles, but a bargain at £122 or so.
I had the black/grey version - didn't know some were called the 'super aero'

Looks like the original stickies, maybe your one had lost them? Cool bike thou, just buy it for spare body parts.

Just FWIW:
Only the 750F's were called that............the 1000's are Hurricanes.
Standard from the factory.

I can't see what's under the 750 on the front plastic. I found similar bike but could only make out, 'CAM ??AR TRAIN'.

=CAM GEAR TRAIN
The 750 had gear driven cams - why they changed to the chain drive for the 1000 nobody knows as the gear train is a far better system.
FWIW

That sucks! Probably to save a few pennies per bike I suppose.
