Default Hey all. Just got 2 free canes :)

Hey guys. I went to work today and my bosses neighbor gave me his 2 honda hurricanes. One is a 87 one is a 88 and they both need some work. I figured this would be my first stop for fixin em both up so hopefully you guys can help me out ive wanted one for a long time and had to pass on a chance to get one for 300 so i guess this is karma or something.

Welcome...
Are you going to get both running, or use one as a donor? Great deal, either way.
Good luck with them and get up some pics when you can.

Im gonna start out by just patching one together into a working bike then eventually fix the second and sell it off. Maybe for a smaller bike for my gf?? lol it all depends. My brothers are rather good with bikes (they own elswick cycles) plus this great little forum i came across i shouldnt have many problems i cant solve. Thanks for the welcome guys and once i give them a run down with my brothers ill get a thread up with some pics and info on what i need for them and what i plan to do with them.

Go ahead & post 'em up here. If you want, you can post 'em in the CBR600F section as well.

Welcome to the Forum !
SOME GUYS HAVE ALL THE LUCK !!! Are they 600's, 750's or 1000's ??
If they are 1000's or 750's come on down to the Hurricane section and meet the rest of the inmates....... otherwise the F1 section will be home for you.
We'll help you get them both up and running.
Workshop manuals on the main Hurricane page.

Ya the are the 1000s. And ya I already found a manual for it and bookmarked a lot of pages with different info. Is there any really good parts suppliers for them or should I go with ebay. Im gonna go head and get some pics up in the other section right now.
