Nice. I miss cartoons that don't inspire mental retardation.

Funny thing is I probably grew up watching the same cartoons and B&W Tv that you did DP. Just in  very bad Spanish overdubs  ;)

And to offset the threadjack. The swingarm and frame are pure art.

When you watched them they were 30+ years old. ;) [laugh]

When I hear Hurricane Motorcycles I always think of this piece of "art" from them

Really?  art??  holes drilled through the frame, big cobby flat pieces of metal welded onto the frame to look like bracing and to support that swingarm???   all scary looking to me.. 
This is an example of art when it comes to frames

I seem to have something of theirs hanging on my garage wall, waiting for a donor bike.

hmm... as I seem to recall WE have something of theirs hanging on your garage wall...

I take my sweet time but I get things done right  [thumbsup]

This is true. For example, he took over two decades to find me  ;D

Couldn't agree with you more Dave... NCR, Banes, Pierobon are more like it.
This Hurricane stuff is a bit too "backyard" for me.

i never cared for the one with the twisted metal welded on. It was like a mashup of OCC and poor man's David Yurman jewelry.

On the other hand, that Pierobon frame looks great AS DOES Norm's hanging on El Matador's (DesmoLu's) garage wall. I would like to see somewhere that somebody did some math on any frame I bought though. Just a little freshman engineering statics would be fine.
