Yep. Me too.
Here goes:
Year: 1999 (yellow!)
Miles: 23,xxx
Title: Salvage (only damage to fairings; forks, frame, and swingarm suffered no damage) from my lowside at Buttonwillow last year.
Condition: cracked mounting point for the plastics, scrapes along the right (throttle) side of the tail and front fairing. MiG pipes suffered a little bit of scraping, but no leaks/cracks. A small crack in the undertail that prevents the end of the one of the MiG cans to bolt onto the undertail; but the exhaust is held stiffly enough with the passenger footpeg bracket. Also, there is a small scuff on the top of the master cylinder. There are no leaks from the MC. Oil and filter were just changed last week.
Modifications:
- EBC HH sintered front brake pads (less than 200 miles on them)
- SBS rear brake pads
- Race Tech fork springs (1.0kg/mm)
- ZG DB windscreen (clear)
- F2 Heli bars
- SS brake lines
- MiG high-mount slip-ons (will include stock pipes)
- APE MCCTs
- PitBull spool adapters + spools (no stands, sorry)
- +2 rear sprocket
- R6 mirrors
- Pazzo Racing levers (gold with black adjusters)
- camera/camcorder tank-mount
- LP rear turn signals
- LP preload adjusters
Price: $2800
Pictures:

With stock pipes on (she currently has the MiG pipes on):

Hahaha, there must be.
I'm definitely tempted to strip the whole bike apart and sell it piecemeal, since I think it'd be a great learning experience. But then, I'd never learn how to put her back together.

What's going to grace the garage when she's gone?

Buy the RR and keep the VTR. That's what I did. That way you'll have the best of both worlds: Comfy commuter and part time canyon carver (VTR) AND dedicated canyon carver and part time commuter (RR).

Heya Greg, I've been considering exactly that. But, the main thing is I'm tired of canyon riding. I'll still do it, but only if I'm going up with a bunch of riding buddies. And even then, if I know it's going to be a spirited ride, I'd probably just take a n00b along for a slow(er) ride, or just not go. Pushing myself in the canyons is no longer fun, and recently our local infamous Crest-piggie (I'm sure caffeineracer knows) has been stepping up his "enforcement."
As for commuting, I'll probably end up teaching in a not-so-nice area soon (Compton), so I don't want to bring anything that draws undue attention to me. Besides, if the 1kRR deal doesn't go through, I'll be getting one of the bikes I've always lusted after - the VFR800 (non-VTEC).

LoL
That's ok. I figured on a bike-specific forum, what are the odds that someone would actually BUY another Superhawk? It's also up on the local CL, but that place is kinda weird... :O
Yeah, "Stand and Deliver" is one of my favorites. Not for the math, but I'm a big fan of Edward James Olmos. First in S&D, again in Selena (yes, I watched it :P ), and later on in Battlestar Gallactica.

sprhawk neil - you are third in line for the race fairings.
It is a complete set of Sharkskinz. I purchased them from xcooper (not sure if he's still lurking on SHF). It comes with an upper, lower, race tail (seat pad, doesn't use the stock seat) with a small, slim hole cut out (possibly for a thin brake light) and an undertail piece.
