Yes folks, something to get the tongues a flappin, jaws a waggin and the eyes a poppin.

It's an 87, obviously I know nothing about it at all, but it's got some some interesting architectural features for you early CBR buffs.....you know who you are.

Wow! That's sweet!!!! I like my model hurricane in orange. It's got me thinking about painting mine now. Looks pretty clean. I doubt they would have bored out the motor to a 1300cc. That would be alot of boring. I don't think it'd be possible. But it does look like someone stuck alot of money, time, and originality into it. Two thumbs up for fining the ride! It's always neat to see older hurricane's fixed up.

Sounds like the guy is having a toss to me. The biggest kit on the market I know is 1100cc. The liners just aren't thick enough to go another 200cc's on top of that. I know the cooling can only just handle 1100cc as well.

did anyone take a look at the tail/brake lights, those make the back of the bike look really clean. I have never seen lenses like that, I wonder if they bought them somewhere or if thats a coustom built lense

Could the motor have been bored and stroked?

There are a lot of valuable spares if it goes for only 500. I don'tbelieve it's a sound and/ortrue1300 CC, which would require very expensivemachining and parts like a stroked crankshaft etc.

Per Japanese HONDA's press release in 1988, CBR 750 Hurricane (scaled down version of CBR100)got minor change, such as tail light and turn signal's lay out. I checked what kind of tail light really came out in 1987, and Japanese model had the exactly same tail light and turn signal as we see on the eBay ad. I have 1987 CBR 1000F (in US), but the tail light is only red cover and the turn signals are separated. This is my guess, but probably for the Safty Standard matter, Tail light and turn signal should be separated in some countries from the begining. Here is the pricture of 1987 CBR750F Hurricane. See the tail light!!
