Default my '88 Hurricane 1000

Love this Bike but my first Hurricane was an '88 600. Miss it Badly

I can't Pull this one up, it just squirrels the rear tire.

Posted these pictures on The Gallery (in the name of "Old School Riders")

Welcome to the Forum !
Your bike's OUTSTANDING....My 1990's a bit "nose heavy" too, leaves long dark stripes on the asphalt, but not much lift.......still, better than having a wobbly with your wheel in the air....he he

I'm still Collecting Cosmetics, never can have enough as my bike is a "Relic"

I feared It was the Bike's mechanicals that kept me from "Popping" a Wheelie! Guess it's just top heavy, which is fine.

My '88 600 popped up at lil' effort back in '89.
Miss that Bike but like to think I graduated to a 1k at 40yrs of age

Thanks for the Reply

Very sharp bike! My first Hurricane was an 87 with the same colors, but a red saddle too. Motor and gearbox now in heaven.
What about your nick, Napalm1000 - something to do about old school riders, but how?

Lovely looking bike mate. I had a CBR600 in 1989 and wish I had never sold that!!! I still have a soft spot for the 600...
