Hurricane to Blackbird
 

Hi,everybody just some input.I bought a Hurricane 3 weeks ago and have not even had the chance to ride it yet and now just came across a 1999 Blackbird for sale,always wanted one.It has 45000 km and the guy is asking 2600.00 cdn.I am thinking of just flipping the Hurricane and buying the blackbird and wanted to know what is your opinion,what should i look for if i decide to go see the bike,i don`t know to much about them,any help that i can get would be much appreciated,thanks

I would keep the Hurricane and also get the Blackbird, It is only my opinion though. :icon_couchhide:

Get the Blackbird ya might get a chance to ride it.

Mate , what you do is your choice ! :icon_shrug:

but does the word indecision ring any bells ???? :icon_wink:


What ever you choose or like the best ............. ride it !!!!!!!!!:icon_bike:



IMO .......... keep the Cane !!!!!!!!

My 3 prier wife's all said the same thing,indecision is the word.Lets see do I like blonds,brunettes,red heads,tall or short,sht I have problems making choices,hahaha.

$2600 for an XX in Canada is a steal, especially at this time of year.

If you come out OK selling the 'cane, get the XX. Its much more bike.

I'm lucky enough to own both bikes and they compliment each other so well. The 1000F is just raw in your face grunt where the bird has the grunt but is smoother and handles better. Being 14 years apart in technology though especially in the brake area is a big difference. I take both on big trips and enjoy both. I dont ride the 1000F as hard as I do the bird cause she is old and I look after her. Both can go all day and they just eat the miles up with ease. Id recommend to anyone to own both if they can. I'll never get rid of either !!! cheers.

I own both also. I've had my '88 since 1996. Ijust picked up a 2000 XX. I like them both.

The do both have different torque characteristics.

Brake rotors cost a lot more for the 1000F though.
