Welcome aboard! She's a real beaut. Take it easy on the throttle, especially since you're new to motorcycling.

Do you know what brand of lower fairing that is on your Hawk? I'm looking for a nice one, but I haven't been totally impressed by anything that I've seen so far. Anybody got any ideas for me?

Ahh...but black is a color. Black is the presence of all colors in the spectrum. White is the absence of color

Just my inner nerd coming out.

Nice ride too! Just be responsible and take it easy on the throttle in the corners.

I know some don't like the pattern but I LOVE those 2 bros carbon fibers...definately unique look. Nice bike, welcome to the party.
I remember when I took the MSF course they let you fail any 1 area of the final exam and still pass the course. I thought it was insane to let someone who failed emergency braking pass the course....that should be a mandatory pass in order to graduate from the course. I can remember thinking "there's a dead lady walking", lol.
I'd like to get back and take the advanced rider course now.
