been a while since i have been here but...
we are finally fixing up the superhawk and i am selling my drz400sm and getting an rc51 
my dad got a complete 04 cbr1000 undertail exhaust and is going to fab it up to fit the superhawk, fix some rash on the left side and fix the fork seals and such.
supermoto is fun but not by yourself and not good for longer rides. so i figured i'd rather cramp myself up on an rc51 and enjoy vtwin power again!... but a supermoto will return to my stable one day... everyone should try one out!

well my dad will be doing the exhaust and i hardly get to work with him so a write up will be difficult... plus he already modded the header from a previous exhaust setup and is going to change it a smidge to fit this in there. only problem is its a stock cbr1000 muffler so it will be quiet and backed up again

In case of the bike fell & she couldn't get up ;-)
frame slider is good in protecting some of the panels & parts.
Although not too sure on the localized impact transfer to the frame (due to slider's nuts & bolts)

bad news(but not majorly bad) today on the RC though, the left side radiator T connectiong for the radiator hoses was split in half and it broke into pieces causing loss of coolant and overheating. noticed something wasnt right and now its in the shop waiting for the part... 1 day of use and now have to wait a week or so to use it again
guess ill ride the motard and do an oil change on it to while it waits to be sold.
