account cancellation
 

Hey, so I ended up buying a triumph sprint rs instead of a superhawk. Can someone advise how to cancel my sh account?

you need to send $100 to all current members, then you'll receive the link
to cancel your account.

:D

I thought we had voted the cancellation fee up to $150? :) I guess you never got the memo huh Tim?

the increase was repealed due to the economic woes ... mr. outoftheloop


:p

gotcha! guess I didn`t get the memo then, lol

all you have to do is nothing and eventually the mods will probally just deleate you for inactivity.

But dont forget the superhawk betrayal tax, ... $25.00 to me and at least 25 other members, then $50.00 to Greg.
This way your email address wont be given to 12 russian spammers

just never come back , and dont wave to ANY hawkers....the bike may get angry

this guy seems like a douche! WTF about this post

I purge inactive users twice per year. Just don't log in for a year and you'll get deleted.

There was a Sprint RS available here in Central Texas. A yellow one with nice set of black soft luggage. You the new owner? If so you got a good bike and no reason to bug out. They're a niche bike like the Superhawk.

Should have done what I did..... buy both!

I don't see why its a requirement to still have a superhawk in order to be a member. I like this forum because its small enough to be familiar, but large enough for a moderate level of activity, and I do own a hawk...

a classic case of having your cake and eating it too! :)

I Agree

Haha. Nice.

I bought a Triumph too, but it's the Tiger 955i for touring. Much nicer than the 'hawk for touring on, as it has the full Givi luggage.

It's very similar to this

One bike is never enough ;)

no reason to leave, I signed on two months before I even got a hawk. wanted to make sure it was something I'd like.

+1 on multiple bikes. I'm not sure what the next will be, but I'm sure it will have only two cylinders...I'm hooked.

Let me please clarify my statement above, where I said I purge inactive users twice per year...

If I delete the account it also deletes all the user's posts. Since there are many members who, over the years, have had some good question or answer to a question, if I were to delete those posts then the forum would lose good information. Thus, you have ANY posts on this forum I will not delete your account. This makes sense and will benefit all forum members, and I hope everyone would agree with my logic.

The only purging I do twice per year is for users who've never posted.

why purge at all? like you said we lose a lot of good info down the drain. or could make some threads confusing. If it's necessary, i guess, but it seems like the wrong thing if you don't have to.

Read my last sentence above....

I purge users with zero posts because it cuts down on the spambots. They sometimes get in through registration but I've found that they usually don't post until after the 6 month period.

oh sorry I missed the last sentence, and i knew you had good reason for purging, just not familiar. Was thinking it had something to do with available space and was thinking of ways to save space. haha technot

Let me also add that you must be INACTIVE, as well, which means that you have not logged in for a year.

This is the OP 2nd post - what was going to happen, Tweety hunt him down for not buying a VTR?

Feliz Navidad everyone

Considering a Super Hawk
 

I'm new here also (like the OP). I signed up because after testing riding a Super Hawk for a friend I told myself "I gotta have one of these!". And the bike I test drove wasn't even running right. It has hardly been used in the last 7 or 8 years. Would not idle at all but even under these conditions I loved the way it rode. BTW, my current ride is a BMW R1200RT.

I'm considering buying a 1998 SH but my friends tell me I am too old for this kind of bike (I'm 66). Do old f*rts own these bikes? More tickets in my life? This bike feels so fast and I never got past 2nd gear! I was riding it in a parking lot. Wish I could have gotten it through all the gears.

I'm not sure this is the place to ask for advise on purchases and models but wanted to share my initial feelings about getting one of these bikes.

I'm coming to 65 myself. Had mine since 1999.

If you're happy with the couch-on-wheels lame RT then yeah the SH might not be for you anymore...

I hear you. :) And I'm taking your advise and looking at a low mileage 98 this week.

PS: I know what you mean about riders... my friend keeps up with almost anybody with an old 1100 GS! On and off road!
