99 Super Hawk FS/ Original owner 4ooo miles ***Pics Added***
Jardine High mount rt1 exhaust, stage one jet kit, 4 deg timing advance kit, high flow air filter, includes factory exhaust as well.
This bike is absolutely in show room condition and has never been stored out doors, ridden in the rain, dumped,tipped, scratched, or had any paint work ever done on it. All the upgrades done by selling dealer after 1200 mile break in was performed. This bike was bought as a hold over in 03. Also the first service was performed at the time of exhaust and everything checked out great.
This is a real nice bike and i know its over kbb price but also that price reflects on average 36k for the year of the bike and also doesn't figure any of the aftermarket upgrades. I don't know of a better 1000 for the price anywhere, i'm away from the bike while listing so i'll take some pic and post them with interest or asap. Looking to sell this bike for 5300/reasonable offer. The bike is black with the red super hawk lettering, also the exhaust is black with crome pipes and also has red lettering, if a person didn't know better you could be convinced this is factory exhaust. Thanks Shane

Thanks, I knew people would think wow that seems too high but look at how much brand new 1000's cost, and not only that look at what you loose in value the first year you own them, and not only that look at what a person spends on the add on's no one needs but always seem to have, that's where i don't think i'm out of line at all.
I hope it doesn't sound like i'm being a dick that's just my opinion on the subject. Thanks however for the input and the bump.

Can I just put out there... when I see someone who has only 4 post and that their join date is 3/10 that they only have interest in selling their bike on here! I hope that this is not the case, but in my time on here I have seen it a few times. Also we all have a SH and someone may want to buy it, but I belive there is a better market place.
OK Im Done!

Sure is nice. I love that year and color combo, and it sure is a find for someone. Not to beat a dead horse but my 2 cents thinks you'll unfortunately (not that I don't think it SHOULD be worth more) have a hard time getting over @ $3500 for it. In the end aftermarket add ons help sell a bike, but don't raise it's value. If you're thinking of it that way you're better off putting it back to stock and selling the extras separately-you'll end up ahead. But best of luck it's a really sweet bike.

Yeah i just did sign up a couple days ago, never ever knew there was a cool website dedicated to these (in my eyes cool, somewhat unusual sportbike), I live in a city of 55,000 people and have only seen one in the past 7 years. However after seeing that a 99 cbr f4 with 20,000 miles brings the same amount of money (as to what everyone says its worth) has me absolutely baffled. Again this is my first time on this website and you with many more post should be more in tune with what's going on. So Yeah you're right i'm on here now to sell my bike, however had never really researched my bike a ton until now because it's always ran great and personally don't spend a ton of time on the computer like some of those internet warriors out there. If i end up giving the bike away which i won't, you'll see me on here from time to time looking up posts giving my cent and a half worth and maybe looking for some people to ride with in my area. Thats the biggest reason for selling, none of my friends have had bikes for the last 4 years and i just don't care to ride alone. Thanks Shane

Thanks for the compliment on the bike, it is really nice much nicer than the pics even show, seriously looks just as good as in the spring of 03 when i bought it! Maybe if i had dropped it i wouldn't feel so bad about having to sell it for 3500, that might be a good idea.

I certainly sympathize with your dilema. My 02' Duc Monster 750 fell off the kickstand(twice) with 20k mileage and I still got $2900 for it. However I was glad to purchase a greatly under valued Superhawk which is much nicer bike. It's a depreciating asset, just ride the hell out of it and you'll get your money's worth.
You've got a great looking bike, you should enter in Hawk of the month.

quick question on the single exhausted hawks, does it affect flow or hp and what do they sound like. When i cover one of my pipes is sounds kinda funny, but i kinda like the look change however.
Thanks

Yeah i've heard that before and that my bike is only worth 3k from some guys here on the board, and it's funny when locally there are 97 f3's with 20k selling for 3000-3300, IMO most the people on this forum don't value their bikes correctly. Look at what it would cost for you to go out and buy a brand new 1000cc and look at what everyone says everyone else's mint bikes are worth. Just my two cents, but good luck with your purchase, i really love my bike and hope you can find a nice one. shane

Who cares if he just signed up to sell his bike? Is it not a Superhawk? I just signed up to BUY a bike and its much easier to go to a location (aka market) and buy one than scour the internet.
But I agree with everyone, its a bit pricey compared to what Ive seen. Plus its a '99 with the smaller gas tank and no LCD display on the dash (which are important for me

OK, so I didnt JUST sign up but I haven't contributed. I hope that doesnt preclude me from purchasing one

your right....how about you just give me 2500 for if and we'll call it good. I could even assist with delivery or shipment.

You'd be better off putting the stock exhaust back on (since you still have it) and selling the Jardine's separate. As for the other "aftermarket upgrades"; almost every other Superhawk has them, and they really don't add anything to the bikes resale value.

I got my 01 hawk in near mint condition with 3800 miles with all the same mods, plus a sargent seat, superbrace, magical racing lower, and all the stock parts for $3500. And that was 2 years ago.

I purchased a 98 off of this website for $1800 this winter. Had a few upgrades, PO just wanted to get it out of his garage. Most people need to ride a SH to understand the value of it. I did lots of research on numerous bikes before I got my SH and am very pleased with it, just purchased a Corbin seat for it. I wish you Good luck on getting your asking price. Just for the record, there is 1994 CBR1000, with 10,000 miles on it, owner is asking $4200!
