Wow! Nice R1!

The Superhawk looks a little bit lonely, hiding in the garage.

Great-looking bike. Don't neglect the poor SHawk now that you have a new toy.

Both look great. Love that Graves exhaust!

I see you have an extra SH motor.

correct, if you can do the work or have a friend that can (like i do:smile: ) it is MUCH cheaper than just buying a new seat

Nice bike, AC! This one came up on the local CL and I thought it looked pretty good.

Nice bike. I have to concur with Cobra, however, in that I prefer the looks of the pre-2004 models (especially the 02-03 version).

Have fun
