New guy in seattle
hey everybody just got a new superhawk a few days ago and found the site and joined. Got a 1998 superhawk that has some engine modifications. Full two bros exhaust. Looking to do an undertail fender eliminator kit next make it look clean. Anybody else from around the seattle area? possible hook up for some rides.

It does sound cool... but youre right its more cool to be legal. If your a new rider consider the Beginning Rider Schools out there too, you can get your endorsment with the class. Actually we took a Experienced rider course last year as a group just for grins and its surprisingly useful. If you want to go fast our race team and track day experts can also help you get started there. Several of the guys also teach for 2 Fast the track day group in Seattle. Better to enjoy the roads and keep the red hot stuff on the track.
Thanks,
Wade

Bike should be legal and ready to ride by the end of next week. I have to take it down and register it in oregon so I dont have to pay sales tax. I want to start riding this thing though and see what it has.
