Greetings ! ...from a new member
Hi folks. For those who are curious about what a newbie has to say;
I would just like to say that I am one double happy dude...having recently
(4 months ago) purchased an absolutely mint 1998 Fire Storm (export or Canadian version of your Super Hawk ? I am not sure about the naming thing).
It's an excellent bike, light years ahead of my CB900F !
I am looking forward to gaining some knowledge from what appears to be
constructive exchanges of information, as well as having a chuckle at some
of the members' comments.
ps. While in Florida on vacation, I bought an aftermarket seat-now I can enjoy
longer rides !
pss. This thing can really chew up a back tire !!!

Welcome! I lived an hour south of Montreal growing up.
The rear tire is a rather expensive chewing habit these bikes have, worse when you get a nail in one at 2000 mi and have to replace it (today's expenditure, but now a new Dunlop Qualifier to try out and compare albeit earlier then I wanted to...)
The aftermarket seat is starting to feel like a must for me too...

Thanks for the warm welcome !
I am quite surprised to see that one of you lives a close as Albany. Beautiful part of the state. I rode by Albany on my way to Laconia NH bike week several years ago. Smugglers notch is a nice ride.
Perhaps we can hook up and ride someday.
