New Blue
Finally posting some pics of her...... Just rolled over 6k miles while I had her out yesterday. Been working on the carbs but still need a little tweaking, sync I think should do wonders.
Opinions: I've always wanted an RC51 and am considering selling this one to make that happen, not sure I will but always a thought in the head
. What is a good price for a low mileage Hawk like this?

I've noticed that the superhawk is very underrated as far as price for what you get. And I wouldn't think you would get what the bike is worth. But I really like the color. And is your head light factory? If so what year is your bike. And if the headlight is aftermarket where did you get it?

Yea they are very underrated and an outstanding value for the money for sure.
As for the headlight it is a projector retrofit that I did on my Yellow Hawk and this one at the same time here is the link to it

I'd say definitely ride an RC before you sell the Hawk. Way way lower clip-ons. Only comfy for about an hour, then you want a break. Their chassis is awesome IMO.
VTR's in my area with low miles you're looking at an absolute max of 3,5-4 and you might have to wait a while for that buyer.
Love the blue, looks great!

Beautiful color. You might think the RC-51 is similiar, but it's not. You feel like your knuckles will touch before your feelers.
I have to say at this point in time, I couldn't imagine a more perfect bike for me and my riding style than the Super Hawk. I don't know the year or mileage, but lets say yours is a 2002 with 12k miles. This time of year it should fetch around 3.5k without a hassle. I can tell you if it were on a showroom floor in a dealership right now it would be 3,999.00 minimum.
PS: Interesting flush mounts.
