Default New member from Holland

Hi all, just registered here, a new member but an old fox concerning biking, riding my CBR for 20 years and motorbikes in general since 1975.
I'm a mod with a Dutch forum specialising in just the CBR750F Hurricane, and always looking for technical info for that bike, because that is very hard to come by. (Funny thing is, I ride a 1000, never rode a CBR750, just tinkered on them )
So if anyone has access to workshopmanuals, parts or owner manuals I'm keen to hear about it.
I noticed one of our Irish members has also found the way here already, so Dugliz, the least you can do is support me on this quest

I do read here for some time already, but never took the trouble to register, as you know I have enough fora to keep me busy.
But it is a larger area to ask for manuals, who knows....

I'm right dead smack in the middle near Utrecht, the best place to be.
What's keeping you then (depending how far you have to come from of course)

Yep there is also Frockster here from Ireland, we often meet up for spins and charity spins. He has a really mint looking 1000f unlike my poor ride, and even thats off the road at the moment with a small pinhole in the tank and i'm too lazy to fix it so i'm using the gixxer 1100. Project for the summer i think.

well i am from poland and that wouldnt be a problem at all but since i have 4 kids and a wife and live all the way in the USA, that makes it little difficult to do. i havent been back in europe in 17 years.

17 years ago there was a lot less traffic, riding between Utrecht and Rotterdam isn't really fun anymore during working hours!
