When to start off my name is Chris,

I am here to learn more about my new bike, yesterday I purchased an 03 with 2,570 miles. I think got a good deal because I paid only 5K. I have been only riding for a year. My first bike I bought last year which was a ninja 250 just to learn the ropes of riding. Of course I got bored so I wanted a faster bike. My buddy let me check out his 04 SH and I was very impressed. So I got lucky yesterday and found one local and ran there to buy it the same day. It is a great ride but I have not pushed it all the way because I am still getting used to all the power. Either way WOW this bike is tons of fun. I have some things I want to do it so I will upate with my projects for right it is stock. Here a couple of crappy pictures that don't do her justice I will post better ones tommorrow.

welcome chris. its a great site, with lots of info and lots of good people. take it easy with the bike - its a lot more power than the 250 and deceptively fast. find some new and advanced rider courses through MSF or local riders programs - will help you stay safe and explore the bikes and your limits without getting hurt.

its a great bike.

definitely an awesome choice of bike. my superhawk is the first street bike ive ever ridden and i absolutely love it. wheelies are fun too. the torque just kicks as as well.

supermonie

Thanks yeah it has way more power thats why I AM definatly taking it slow with the turns and straight line.

supermonie

Death Cattle nice color, I was thinking of painting mine pearl white.

Death Cattle

thanks. this is the color it was when i got it. i love it. green is awesome. its definitely on the lime side of green, but oh well. i think it works out really well. here's a better picture of it.

Cool It is very NICE!

Death Cattle

thanks. its definitely not as in as good of physical condition as most of the bikes on this site, its been left outside a lot by previous owners, but i love it nonetheless. ive seen some white superhawks and they look really awesome. especially when they have black decals

Death Cattle

another thing you might consider that ive been thinking of doing is getting your frame powder coated black. it looks damn cool. if you do a search on the site you should be able to find a few pictures.

supermonie

Yeah I really want something thats eye catching like yours. I've seen a couple pearl white bikes and they are hot IMO.

Death Cattle

they definitely are. some people think white is plain, but not me. i think its just awesome.

Hope you,ve got a good bank balance and plenty of time , because its only a matter of time before the modification bug will bite you on the **** . BE WARNED .
By the way welcome to the forum its excellent .

supermonie

Thanks yeah I have been modifing cars for 10 years so I know about the low bank account due to mods and i know how to taking my time. I do all my own work so it helps with the spending.
