Hurricanes don't like to run properly below 3000 rpm anyway.....!! _____________________________ Good judgement comes from experience - experience comes from bad judgement... workshop manuals: http://blackbears.ru/index_en.php?get=manual http://www.carlsalter.com/motorcycle-manuals.asp My CBR Forum buddies - Boomerang Bob and Mr Plod (in reply to Kc31019) Post #: 32

If I had a part number I could research it for you fully. _____________________________ Good judgement comes from experience - experience comes from bad judgement... workshop manuals: http://blackbears.ru/index_en.php?get=manual http://www.carlsalter.com/motorcycle-manuals.asp My CBR Forum buddies - Boomerang Bob and Mr Plod (in reply to devildogsc) Post #: 35
