Hey guys and gals, another new member here. I picked up my 2004 Superhawk a few months ago and man, am I loving it. After riding inline 4's for many years, I cant believe that I didnt ride a twin sooner! Like I said, its an '04 with 2400 miles on her I plan to keep this bike for a LONG time! Phoenix, Arizona riders hit me up!

I saw that bike a few months ago as well, this one was a trade in at one of the dealerships of the company that I used to work for.

Ive not been on alot of rides out your way, im in Tempe so I usually head east to ride.

Im not really big on the gold rims either. I think im going to spray the centers black and polish the lips.

I also think the charcoal engine covers look better than the sand ones but with the gold rims it actually seems to tie it together a little. I have been drooling over the 848 too but sadly its not in my near future. Plus I would kinda feel like I was cheating with the girl next door...

I actually like the sand color on the sidecases versus the charcoal color. The sand color matches the fork tubes nicely.
I removed the Super Hawk 996 stickers from the side fairings yesterday, much cleaner look. Ill post up pics this weekend. I also trimmed down the rear fender some more. I love this bike!

Ahhh, you dont know about the Pavilions.... The Pavilions is a shopping center in Scottsdale(Indian Bend Rd./101) that hosts an ongoing car show every Saturday evening all year round in their giant parking lot. Hundreds of classic hot rods/muscle cars and motorcycles come out, as well as modern exotics.
I ended up going last night around 9pm and it was already thinning out. I saw some really nice bikes though! Check it out:

Cool

Good lookin bike dude. I took the superhawk 996 off my fairings too. Its so much cleaner looking to me. My rims were metallic black when I got the bike, the engine covers were also.
