Never seen more of a beautiful bike in my life. The designing in this bike is so a head of it's time. It looks fast but not so hot boy so it's just a classic look.

Almost 35 years old and looks brand new

Awesome! There should be a weekly feature hosted by Billy. What a interesting guy 🤘🤘

Had a poster of this bike on my wall when I was 14!

Owning a few cbrs like the 900,929rr and 1000rr this bike is a legend 🙌 love these old Hondas

So awesome hearing from billy, Kaplan has the best bikers/ racers/ people!! Then all the best bikes!!! Awesome!!! God bless America! God bless Kaplan!!!

Man I miss my 98 600. Nothing is as smooth as a Honda

we call that the jelly mould here in the uk

I had a CBR600FK with the red, blue and white colour scheme. I put a micron slip on race can on it and had a stage 2 Dynojet kit put on it as well. It only put about 5mph on the top end (155mph), but boy did it accelerate. It had 48 1/2" holes drilled into the air box and you could hear it sucking the air in. The guy who tuned it used to be in a team that used to go to the TT. Those were the care free days and i mss em.

Always the best of the best. Kaplan Cycles, the NEMM and Kaplan America are THE BEST IN THE WORLD!

My dad had one of these, and with the stock exhaust it sounds exactly the same here as in my memories.

Bought it. Keep an eye out for it on the streets of Las Vegas

I feel 35 years younger just watching this video 😅😂🤣

What a beauty! Had a red-white-blue one untill the early nineties. Best bike I ever had; fast enough, agile and nimble.

Absolutely amazing specimen. I have a 1987 cbr600f, its it pretty good condition, not museum quality for sure but its in very good condition and it purrs like a kitten but roars like a lion from 9500 to 12000 rpm

An absolute beauty of a motorcycle ❤

I bought this bike in 1987 and every single person who pulled up along side me wanted to race. Big bore Harleys were the most fun. I'd even give em a gear or two head start...hahahaha...do true.

for 40,000 plus miles bike is pretty clean

I have one of those in comparable condition. Engine completely overhauled by Honda. With just 49k kilometers on it. A 87 model with a silver/ dark blue paintjob. Its an adorable little bike!

I owned the same model - same color scheme - wish I still had it! A bit of work to keep the carbs in order over the years but an amazing bike !

I have the 1990 CBR 1000. I've owned it since 1999 and before that my brother owned it. Still a silver bullet!

So glad you put this video together. I had this bike in that color. never saw another one like it. Wish I would’ve kept it but it’s nice to see! I loved it!

Great machine good story 👍

"Look at it… Will you just look at it"? I've never seen anything so beautiful. Look at the front fender on that thing… Look at the whole thing! "Look at it… Will you just look at it"? My God they don't make them like that anymore!!!! Gorgeous… Just gorgeous!!!

I can't believe how clean this bike is, even the swingarm is perfect. The year 1989 was when the insurance companies were cracking down on oft-crashed sportbikes, so Honda stopped calling it the Hurricane and only used CBR600 as the name. Because insurance companies (and the Kawasaki Ninja 600) know: "All things must hide from the Hurricane."

What a time piece ❤

These are gorgeous and overlooked sometimes make no mistake these are a pure quality honda

I bought a 1989 model yesterday (red and white). Needs a bit of tidying up and off I go. I bought a brand new one in 1989.

What a great interview and tribute to a real classic! I bought a 1990 CBR-600f new off the showroom floor and still own it. It’s pearl white and silver, running Dyna ignition, V&H pro super sport pipe, steel braided lines, Ebc green pads. Would love to find a rear pillion cover like that 1989 has, if you run across one please let me know!

I had the 1987 Hurricane red with black. If could have it back.

I have one myself a 1987 Hurricane 600rr black and red 😍👍👊

Sounds sweet as a nut Ken,cracking!👌🦾🦾🦾

Bill earns you a thumbs up! I bought a new leftover 1986 VFR 750 instead of the the 87 CBR 600 they had at the dealer I worked at. I always wondered if I made the right decision. It was back and orange if I recall. It was the 17" rims I wanted as my Interuptor had the odd 16" front that was in fashion for a time.

My favorite motorcycle of all time. Did it sell at auction?

That bike is Mint!

I have this exact bike it was my first motorcycle ever. I can't believe the quality of that cbr.

A real gem!🌟 sounds great..😊

Your service department should be commended. Hardly anyone has the attention to detail anymore to line up the tire balance dots with the valve stem. Small details like this I notice. Great looking bike. Front brake lines are aftermarket, but other than that, a well preserved example.

Looks like a 5000 mile garaged bike not 44,000

CBR 6's ruled Bridgehampton. Commies made it into a freaking golf course / condo what ever. Need more tracks and less ,freakin golf balls if you ask me

Way cleaner than mine

I never knew these hurricanes came in this color scheme until recently. I went to purchase some parts for my sons old Suzuki quad sport and the fella was a machine and parts flipper that had stumble across one of these (in this color) for ($250?) Idk some CRAZY price. And it was almost as crispy as this example. The guy must’ve dropped it and got scared because it had sat since ‘93? Or something and it has CRAZY low miles only problems I saw were cracked windshield and a missing left side rear view mirror. I was in awe over this machine. It’s actually on Marketplace as we speak for trade to a Honda Grom…. The whole reason I found this video.

Thanks for the bike! Bought at auction and LOVE it. Las Vegas

Sad they took away the Hurricane name during this year .

beatiful scoot, Ken 🥰 one of a kind fer sure

You will NEVER find this bike ANYWHERE!! My friend had one back whenn I was still riding my '82 GPz550 (62 hp) and when I got on this thing, thought I was about to drop it on the first turn, (it turned on a dime) and that power-to-weight ratio...WOW!!

Awesome bike, just bought one myself and I'm starting to restore it. Never seen a rear seat cowl like that however. Is that custom made or did it come stock with the bikes?

Heck Ken you got a pot hole ... or is that a micro motocross track???

i just bought one for 250 buck it needs carb bought that for 75 waiting on shipping now its a gem i dont know how i paid 250 bucks lol 😂 its a 88 second owner

Nice colors!

Stunning

Awesome video, brother. That is one gorgeous bike. Loved Billy telling you the story about him racing them. 170mph for a CBR 600, even though I know it wasn't stock, is mind blowing. Puts into perspective, how much power the new CBR 1000's must have. Great Video! PS. If I remember correctly, in the 80's Honda made a Hurricane that was red, white, and blue, like some of their old interceptors, if I'm correct in thinking?

I had one exactly like that. In my opinion, the very best paint scheme for those gen 1 CBRs. I have to know what this sold for, does anyone know?

I've a gen 1 1990 cbr600, red white and blue,30 k miles from new, exceptional condition.Bought it 8 weeks ago,I stole that bike at £800 ,bike rides like showroom fresh

Bill Blath, was that the name of the ex cbr600 racer?

looks awesome and sounds electric🤣😂🤣😂

I had one and it was a wheelie machine

Can you find this part # and tell me what the part is ? 53H-02

Would it be hard to find parts??

88 honda cbr600 looks a lot like the 88 Suzuki gsx600f miss my gsx600f my first fearing sports bike I've had a kz650 and my gs750 and currently have a cb650 four all fun bikes I prefer older sports bikes

Great stories Kenny, i love it! Missing the bible verses from the times we were all in lockdown, kept me going, and now we all came back stronger, bring them back! G.

Wow!! Cool bike, incredible bike in the day!! Awesome bike!!

Um abraço do Brasil!

This bike is beautiful. ❤

😍😍😍😍😍

I had this motorcycle. I regret selling it.

You guys putting the Vfrs up for sale soon?

WOW love the bike but that powerband most likely caused a lot of problems. Sitting on that and looking at straight road is too intriguing.

How much do you want for

Nice!

Wants to sell..?How much?

$5k

I'll fill that pothole on the cheap.

Ugly compared to the fzr600

Sweet memories. I bought an identical ride at 20 yo. in 1990. The annual insurance cost as much as the bike. Lol.

Doubt it does 150. I had one in the 90s and it wouldn't do more than 125. Was a nice machine though and sounded great.
