Nice to meet you, Hawk!

 

New here,I'll probably be sticking to this section so may as well intro....

I'm Irish, ride a 94 hurricane with 155,000 miles on the clock, put 140,000 there myself since I bought the bike in 2005, I work on rigs in the north sea, tour (2 up) all over Europe, have toured in the US every year for the last 8 years (HD-roadking) 50 yrs age and never drove a car in my life, and think the Hurricane is probably the best and most under-rated bike in the world...It can still knock lumps off GSXR's on the road once you have the ***** to do it... I'm currently re-building an 88 Honda NT 650 and hoping to make a cafe racer out of it...thats just a hobby...the serious stuff is the Hurricane.

 

Failte - to the Forum there headhunter

moving this to the Hurricane new members section

 

Welcome headhunter!
I work in the oil industry too, in the oil fields of North Dakota.
If you ever find yourself in Montana, look me up... I'd be happy to show you around NW Montana and Glacier National Park!

 

Been in Sth dakota a few years back at Sturgis Matt. spent 6 days there and can remember 2 of them Nice roads up that way.

 

So headhunter - d'ya ever set foot on this big old floatin' " pallet " ?

Kinsale's an old haunt of mine - sister lived there for years

 

I wonder if he's ever been on this one!

 

Nah Sprock, I work mostly in the Norwegian sector. My dad was on the construction of that platform back in the 70/80's. Kinsale is just down the road from me, nice town, if a wee bit expensive, but its got style.

 

Gday Headhunter. Welcome to the forum. Great guys here with plenty of ideas and DIY stuff. They've saved me plenty of money with stuff I can do myself. Cheers.
