Syclone 03-12-2008 10:31 AM

congrats, now break out the razer blade and cut off that rear plastic!

killer5280 03-12-2008 10:37 AM

Nice clean bike. Just try and leave it stock.:)

synaptik 03-12-2008 10:47 AM

Hawk9807 03-12-2008 11:23 AM

Smileyhawk 03-12-2008 11:34 AM

+1 x 2 on the fastest color!

Welcome to the VTR, you're going to love it!

Gregw 03-12-2008 11:38 AM

I've got exactly the same bike. The PO used what looks like a sawzall to remove the fender. Not the cleanest job.

SD Hawk 03-12-2008 11:42 AM

Heat, razor blade, a little patience and a dremmel did the trick for me.
Integrated tail light / signal from ebay for about $100
I actually left the "holes" for the original turn signals, just in case.....

Both cheap and looks pretty good to me......

Oh yeah and welcome aboard. I picked up my yellow '99 last summer replacing an I4 Honda 919. Different beast all togther. Just a fun ride all the way around!

synaptik 03-12-2008 11:44 AM

i dont mind the stock lights just that big piece of black plastic .... course it wouldnt hurt to get my plate up under the seat so the toll cameras cant see it neither ;-)

Welcome to the forum!

synaptik 03-12-2008 12:21 PM

thanks for the warm welcome everyone ....

i am sure i will have a ton of stupid already asked questions in the near future ... any hawk riders local to dallas ?

RCVTR 03-12-2008 04:37 PM

Nice, clean bike! You're going to love it.
That's exactly how mine looked. Mine had 348 miles on it, with "mild cosmetic damage".
I almost drove off the road a couple times looking at it in the mirror, in the back of my truck.

I haven't been the same since!

Welcome aboard!!

alive226 03-12-2008 06:23 PM

Welcome aboard and you are gonna love your bike!

Yeah, even the mini-ceptor feels like a baca-lounger in comparison. Need to retrain the muscles and VFR clipons will help.

sassage 03-12-2008 09:34 PM

looks like a good find...how many miles?

StoneJrW 03-13-2008 05:01 AM

Welcome.........But beware the Hawk is addicting.

FL02SupaHawk996 03-13-2008 05:48 AM
