Different animals, but the FZ1 will definitely smoke the Hawk in the engine department.

Anyone here go for the trade?
Had to find something to post on...
This will make my 100th post!
Maybe now I can ditch the "back marker" status

I called him but to be honest the FZ1 doesn't do much for me. The fact that he's asking 6.3k for a bike thats probably worth 3.9k tells me he's not going to want to give a good deal. The bike has 26k miles. Doesn't seem like a very good deal.
