Really sweet! She looks really clean! Hope you have fun on the bike. That thing looks brand new! Just so I can grin the next time I go down to the shop - tell us what you paid for it in US Dollars.

Very nice...

Which lower fairing is that? (if you know, since you did just get it)....

Looks very nice... I think i'm gonna take my SuperHawk stickers off tomorrow, and if nothing else, i can have a buddy of mine make the FireHawk ones if i decide to put them on, if not, i may leave it naked.. other than the honda tank logo..

exhaust looks good too...

She is really clean, but then she's only done 1,960 miles, so we'll se how she looks in a year or two once she's got another 15k on the clock.

It's hard to do a £/$ comparison as the pound is very strong against the dollar at the moment. Anything is going to make this bike look very expensive in dollars, but I think in UK terms I paid a "fair" price.

I bought it from the Honda dealer, they included 12 months road tax and 12 months parts and labour warranty. It was up at £3,999 and I got it down to £3,750. Not cheap, but this one has some nice aftermarket bits on, and it's only done 2k miles. The price when new was £7,000 I'm told.

It was already on the bike, so I'm not sure.

I bought the pipes from blueflameperformance.com They were the cheapest I could find, as they have a sale on at the moment. They arrived in just 3 days too!

Anyone know where you might find a rear grab bar like that? I've been doing some searching, but nothing has turned up yet.

I mentioned adding a grab bar like that to a friend of mine after I took her on a short ride, and her response was: "What fun is that, like this your passenger gets to hold on to you."

I'd like to see my wife even try to get her arms around my beer-belly!
