anyone else looking at a non-moving/running hawk or am i the only jerk off?

 

Explain , please. I have six Superhawks -3 of the six are being ridden, the other 3 are being modified(suspension, exhaust, body work,etc.)
And I know -I ain't a jerk. Just an A@@hole.. Because my wife tells me so...

 

Actually I'm a jerk off AND an a$$hole. No you're not the only one, I've been known to make them disappear from craigslist and reappear in my garage when they occasionally pop up within reasonable driving distance. And soon I'll actually be dragging the same one home for a second time after first giving it lots of TLC after it sat dormant for several years and getting it running perfect before the caring soul I sold it to managed to blow the engine after a whopping 2 months of ownership.

 

I've got my parts hawk (its complete though) sitting in the shed. It could be a runner, but its worth more to me as it sits as a "what-if" insurance policy of sorts.

These bikes are cheap enough that I can stockpile 'em.

 

OK...I'm curious Captain....

How did the new owner of your TLC'd Hawk blow the engine in two months?

 

yeah mine sits with the undetermined , click-tick-clack-damnit! getting a first real job and moving has hindered me from revitalizing her but Im going to start taking things apart and see what my barely mechanical mind can figure out. Id like to have a shed full of spares!
