It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Southern California. I decided to let the Super Chicken out of her prison and treat her to a trip from Orange County to "The Snake" on Mulholland Drive. I was feeling great and she was making all the right moves. After a few sprinted trips up and down the hill I decided to take it easy on the way down to get a bite to eat at The Rockstore. Half way down the hill I entered a left hand sweeper at a minor lean angle then all of a sudden I was on the ground. While I don't classify myself as an expert rider, I've been on bikes for over 30 years so I know I wasn't braking in the corner. The only thing I can chalk it up to is that I must have hit some lose gravel in the road, as is the standard excuse when you want to blame something other than operator error Nevertheless she was down and so was I. The frame sliders did their job and I am thankful for having them but the left side of the bike is still in need of replacement plastics (along with a windscreen and some other bits). She was able to be ridden home albeit it was an extremely painful ride since, aside from a bruised ego, I also broke a few ribs on my left side. As soon as I can breathe without pain Im going to explore some naked options for the bike.

I'm a big fan of the latest Ducati Monster look and would like to figure out how to duplicate the headlight/guage cluster. I've done some searching and have seen a lot of different headlight options but none that have that compact (low profile) look. Has anyone here seen or heard of someone fitting a Ducati style headlight to their Superhawk? If so, I'd love to see it.

 

Probably my favorite VTR:

Sorry to hear... V Rod lamps look good on our bikes. They're plentiful on fleabay too.

 

I agree! This bike has just about everything I want. Looks like it was also a lot of work!

 

My first VTR was from a salvage yard, I just put on some old round headlight with turn signlals, radiator from CBRF4; skipped the guages just used my GPS.

 

I like how the V Rod headlamps go with the lines of the tank... this example has no practical gauges or mirrors, but that can be sorted out.

 

Here is another look that I kinda favor, of one of our members, with a GSXR1000 tail and head light not sure from where, but looks great

That is very cool!
