Not much you can say.And yet a whole book.Harry's just a natural choice.Hurricanes are among the rarest Meriden Triumphs(although,some might argue they are rightfully BSAs)and this is a sweet example.

Hopefully,Ron will show us some more pix.

Congrats,Ron.

Hurricanes are one of my favourite looking bikes. Having grown up (sort of!) watching The Banana Splits, Evel Knievel and having an orange Raleigh Chopper I always wanted one. Perhaps some time...

Yeah, man. I'll bet that baby stirs up some questions: "What is it?", ""Did you customize that yourself?", "Why is is orange?"

The owner of the shop I used long ago had one, but I never saw him take it out. Think that was the only one I ever saw up close.
Cool bike, Ron, and so very worthy!
