Default My '88 Hurricane

Bought my first in '89, was still in the crate. Kept it for a few years, then sold it. About 5 years ago, tried to find the same bike, and came up with this one. Same color as my first, and runs exactly how I remember. Have tried to sell her recently, but these bikes just not bringing the $$$. Had it out today, and decided I'm going to ride it and enjoy...........

Corbin Gunfighter seat
New Battlax BT21's (that replaced the ORIGINAL tires that were on it)

That IS beautiful. Keep it. Just buy another one. Then teach a friend to ride. He'll HAVE to buy it.

Hey there Dragon. Yep, I DO like this bike for sure, probably the reason why I have kept "Katrina" as the previous owner called her. Just didnt want her sitting too long in between rides. Will check out your summer post.

Take care, Ken
