HI folks, my name is Jared and I live in Portland Oregon don't come here it sucks.Rains all the time too. I am new to this forum but in the last 2 years I have gone from 73 CB350 four to 78CB 750 F to my current ride which is a 90VFR750f. I alos have accumulated a 60 someting SS125twin and CB360 twin and a 61 Ducati 125 single.
My new project is a 87/88 Hurricane 600. Now I started with a rolling chassi and a pile of parts. I am to an almost running stage with oil in the engine and coolant going in tomorrow and no spark yet but soon very soon. The only thing I have done to up grade it so far is to put tapered rooller bearings in the steering head. This pic is what I started with.

What I really need is a free downloadable manual for the hurricane series. Anyone? Bueller?

Check out this thread - there's a download link in there, but the manual is actually for a 1990 (we think). It's a good start, though. Your best bet is obviously to just go and shell out the $40 for a Clymer's manual.

By the way, I'm just North of you up here in Seattle, and ya, this rain sucks. I spun up my back tire on the freeway yesterday in 3rd gear! Friggin' gas and oil mixed with raim water everywhere makes for a hairy commute.

Yeah I just tell people that it sucks because we have enough folks here and I want to downplay it. As far as shelling the money out Ihave a dificult time spending 40 bucks for a manual when I know that somewhere there is one to download and I am only into this bike for about 100 bucks. that includes the tapered roller bearings . I did download a manual but it is for the F2 and there are detail differences like how the wiring routes and hose routing and stuff like that that I need drawings of or photos . I have it so that the motor turns but no spark yet. I will follow the trouble shooting guide that I have though. I think today I will put on the exhaust and chain, then make it run

wow, looks like you have your work cut out for you. i have not been able to find a digital F1 manual, and i am not so sure that manual is anywhere near an F1, european F1 maybe, which equates to a US F4. I need to just scan mine in, but im lazy.....I do have wiring diagrams scanned in for it though...lemme find them.
