anticipating the ride
Here I am sitting in my garage. I'm enjoying a good beer, and smoking a cigarette (guilty pleasure when I'm drinking, try not to let it become a habit.) I keep gazing at my half torn down hawk, wondering how it's gonna be when I get it back together. Right now I have a new chain and sprocket kit on the way. Going +2 in the rear. My brother just bought a 06 CBR1000 because his ducati is starting to feel too slow for him. I know I'm not going to keep up with him, but I'm gonna try. Tomorrow the carbs come off for a good cleaning. The hawk is going to get new pilot power 3s and some new ebc hh brake pads too this week. When it's all back together I'm excited to use my new motion pro carb sync tool. I will probably do the tps mod while I'm at it. The weather here in Colorado is warming up and riding season is quickly approaching... although it didn't really leave for long. I was able to ride all the up until the middle of January. I can't wait to see how this thing feels with a little bit of love put into it. I don't ever post on here, but I needed to share my excitement with someone who cares. My wife doesn't get it lol. If there's is anyone here in the Denver area that wants to meet up some weekend you should let me know. Thank you everyone on the this forum for unknowingly giving me all the information I need to do the work on my ride. Also, thanks for letting this random drunk dude ramble. Now back to staring at my superhawk like some creepy drunk guy at the bar.

I feel ya man. My SH I coming together and I am ready to get it done and back on the road. I have only heard it run beifly and I have actually never ridden it. I am looking forward to doing both very soon.

I could tell my bike was used in Texas or at least the Deep South. When I pulled the drive sprocket cover a cicada fell out. It startled me. I don't think I will ever get used to those bulging eyes.
